What a weekend :)

This whole weekend has just been marvelous. I already wrote about Thursday night, so I'll just skip over that.
Friday was really chill. I went to one class and then basically had a catch up day for the rest of the day. Robyn curled my hair while we watched baseball :) Then we all got ready and went to the Snow meets Caribbean stomp! It was so much fun. We left that at about 11:30, and went over to apartment 16 just across the hall. We decided to go on a Denny's run, which involves driving about 45 minutes south of Ephraim to the small town of Salina. We packed a whole bunch of people into 3 cars and took off.
We almost didn't make it to Denny's, because there was a crazy snow storm that kind of prevented us from seeing. At all. But we pushed through it, basically because we didn't want to be the ones to call off the whole thing. We made it safe and sound and stayed there for quite a while. We went with me Dani and Robyn, Courtney, Kristy, Aubrey, Shak, Ryan Andelin, and then like 7 other people I had never met before. But it was still really fun :)
We came home and passed out, and woke up about 11:30 on Saturday. My cousin and her husband and their new BABY came into town to visit.
This is them:
This is their new baby, Corbin:
He's pretty freaking adorable. So we all got together and went to Los Amigos for lunch, and then walked around campus and the new library and talked. I came home and took an extremely long nap, from about 4-8pm. Then Robyn and Dani got home from a concert they went to, and we had a baby Grey's Anatomy marathon. We're slightly addicted.
That's it for now. I've just been really freaking happy this weekend, which is awesome. Lovin it.

Wonderful Day :)

Yesterday....was absolutely FANTASTIC. I don't have time to make this all fancy and post pictures and such, but I just wanted to get it down to remember it all.
I woke up went to classes, blah blah. That wasn't the exciting part. After class we went home and Robyn and Celeste had got us A FREE PIZZA! That's pretty freaking exciting when you are like us and have no money. So that was nice :)
We all crawled in the tent in the living room and watched Ellen together, and took naps and laughed at a variety of truthfully unfunny things. And I loved every minute of it :) Dani and Robyn fell asleep, but Celeste and I got up and went to do a service project at the temple in Manti. We were there for about an hour, raking grass and planting things. It was tornado-level windy, but still really fun.
Right after that we went to play softball with this kid named Erik. He needed people to play, and was short, so Celeste and I went. We ended up winning 19-17. Ha pretty high scoring, but so much fun. I hadn't played in a while, but it all came back to me and I did well.
We went back and Celeste got ready and went to hang out with Shawn. Dani, Robyn, and I went over to apartment 16 for a girl's night. We made coffee cake and pumpkin pie cake! And we roasted starbursts over the stove and talked for a long time.
Robyn was drinking her Dr. Pepper, and as she finished it she looked in the bottom...and found A SPIDER. An enormous, disgusting, missing three legs spider. Best thing: The spider had been pregnant, and its stomach ruptured. Tasty. It was probably one of the funniest things that has ever occurred, other than that time Celeste peed her pants and threw up at the same time...which was just on Tuesday.
So we watched Tangled and Robyn curled Courtney's hair. In the middle of the movie, Celeste called me. SHE GOT ENGAGED LAST NIGHT!!!! I'm so happy for her. They're going to make it. I was absolutely ecstatic. :) :) :) :)
I'm so blessed and lucky to have these girls in my life as roommates. It's a complete 180 turn around from last semester, and they've become my lifelines. I don't know what I would do without any of them. :)
