Monkey Rock

There is a place here called Monkey Rock. At Monkey Rock there is a bridge with a pretty deep river running under it. So what do college students do??? Oh they go and jump off the bridge. It is a lot of fun!!! Mom stop freaking out, I didn't do it. I have no problem standing on the edge or sitting on the edge but as soon as I thought about jumping I would start freaking out and psych myself out.

After everyone had had their fill of jumping off the bridge, we went to the real area called monkey rock where we played in the water. There are waterfalls there too that we were able to swim under and walk behind them. It was so cold but soooo much fun. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing
.
This is us behind the falls.
In front of the falls. Sooo pretty!!!

Porter Park= AWESOME PARK!!

For FHE last week, we decided that we wanted to go to the park for our activity. This park is a great park. Iy has swings, and open fields to run around in. It is just great. What makes this park different from others???? It has a water area and it is like playground equipment with water!! It is so awesome! My FHE group went and played in the water there. Many of the other FHE groups were there at the park doing a variety of different activities, but we wanted them all to join us. We went and got them, and it pretty much turned into an unofficial ward activity, because basically the whole ward was there, minus a couple apartments. It was soooo much fun.










This is my beloved 30th ward! It is the BEST ward ever!!! I just love it and I really don't want to leave it!

Hostage situation gone bad.....

A friend of my apartment made the mistake of leaving his beloved Boise State hoodie at our apartment... The hoodie is our hostage. We made an audio tape for said friend and went to deliver the tape. Naturally, we had to go all out on the deliverance of the tape.



We get water guns and pantyhoes, and begin on mission: tape delivery. We get to the boys apartment and have gun in hand and pantyhoe over our face. We bang on the door and hide to the side of the doors, kinda like special agents. The door opens and he assault begins. We start shooting our guns, and they run behind the "chastity line". Little suckers!! We slide the tape to the boys, and begin to leave. Thats when all of a sudden the boys come out and are getting us back. We didn't think about that happening. We run out the door. We run around the corner to hide and come to the realization....... WE LEFT A MAN BEHIND!!!! The other girls wanted to just leave her. I thought otherwise.... I went for the door... it was locked... I knocked on the window and kindly asked one of the boys to open the door. The guys at the sink were yelling at him not to, and then they were yelling at him to open it. I did not understand why the sudden change of heart. Then I saw. They had a big jug filled with water, and I was their target. I tell the other girls to run, and thy are happy to do so. I begin to retreat as well. Just out of his reach. He turns to Puff, the one left behind, and starts to pour it on her, but she gets her hands free and is able to turn it onto himself. HE is now soaked!! I take this opportunity to run across enemy lines to get ammunition. I get a big glass for one hand and a smaller one for the other. I am not caught yet. I fill them with water, and oh no I have been spotted. Josh comes to get me, and I turn and throw all the water on him! He is trying to recover from the freezing cold water that ha just been thrown in his face, and he grabs me! I have been captured also! Puff and I are trying our best to get away/get the boys more with water. Josh is totally taking us both. The boys have captured all of our guns by this point and we are just trying to get what we can. This picture here was taken right after I got slammed in the head with my team members head. Did it hurt?? Yeah, it did.


We call a temporary truce while the tape is played. And by temporary truce I mean we, the girls, were basically forced into submission, as you can see by the picture. The tape had the conditions of the exchange. They must provide a dinner with every course, and it must be home cooked. It was all very simple. The boys tried to change the conditions, but we were strong and stood our ground!

Our innocent little tape delivery turned into an all out battle that the boys basically won. We only had one gun left and that wa after much begging to get it back. The gun belonged to another guys aparment and we had promised to give it back to them.

We are a little frightened because repercussions have been promised. Now we are going to lock our aparment and our living room window everytime we leave the apartment

Anyone have any good retaliations that we can do once the guys get us?? JonnyI know you have some..... hook a sister up!!!

Din-din

So I have introduced Chicken Roll-ups to a few of the guys here at school and now anytime I invite them for dinner that is what they want. The last time I made the chicken roll-ups, at the request of the boys, they wanted to come help make them. Dustin had never used a hand mixer before.... He was so excited to use it for the mashed taters. It was really cute he had that smile on his face the whole time he would use the mixer.






Sterling wanted toget his hands dirty so I gave him the job of rolling the roll-ups in the butter and bread crumbs. He really was more excited about it than the picture shows. He is just a goof ball.





Chelsee mixing the chicken and cream cheese, and Puff reading New Moon to all of us in the kitchen. We aren't obsessed or anything like that. :)




Bryan, Brooklin, and Randy eating dessert.



There were a couple other guys there, but I didn't get any pictures of them. I know sad. Oh well.

Oh and dinner was sooo good. I mean hello it was chicken roll-ups. After this dinner I was asked if I would teach some of them how to cook some other things. It was so much fun teaching them. I don't have any pictures, but it was a lot of fun!
