My first time in Utah...

Finally, when i play "never have i ever"...i can put my finger down when someone says "...been in Utah"...Cause wazzup, i finally made my first Utah trip!!


I was SO blessed to have a good friend give me a buddy pass to Fly to Utah. What's up 50 dollar flight!

Thursday Night: I flew in Thursday night and was picked up by a good buddy i hadn't seen in a long time. He was also picking up his brother and then we picked up a gal and all went out to dinner. I had Thai food for my first time and....success, i liked it!! (( it's hard for me to like new foods. Im what they call...picky )) . I had the yellow curry with chicken and potatoes. Oh delish!
It was a really fun night and so good seeing him, i'm so proud of all he's getting done in Utah!

Friday: My good friend from high school (who took me to his Senior prom, aw!) lives in utah and by coincidence was in Provo this day. He picked me and marshelle up around noon and took us to L&L Hawaiian BBQ and he treated us to a delicious lunch! he is such a sweetheart. We cruised around, went to DI, walgreens and finally went to Nickel City in Orem. Arizona needs a nickel city, STAT!!! we had so much fun!! Ray's a sweety and even gave me half his nickels and all his tickets. (wow i sound like a bully getting candy from a kid). In the end, i had enough tickets to buy a super rad bouncy ball that you can stretch, got Ray a ring he thought was cool, and bought me some fake mustaches! Our day with ray was so fun!!

Later on, Marsh and I decided to have an antm moment in her brothers backyard before going to dinner with her uncle and family. SO FUN! her family is so sweet and i loved meeting all the cute lil' ones that made me laugh, a lot!

That night, we made owl cuppy cakes with Ciara...they were so cute and yummy!! then we went to The Colonies where i was reunited with my beautiful twin "daughters" that i love so much!! Ashley & Lexi :) We played games with their friends and caught up on life. Finally, we drove to Farmington for our long Saturday ahead.














Saturday.
General Conference...was unbelievable! Marsh and I were so blessed to have Plaza tickets and were about 15 rows to the front. Both sessions were so powerful and so uplifting, I definitely felt the spirit and was so in awe at the amount of people from all around the world. Such a testimony strengthener. Temple Square was beautiful!! i loved everything about Salt Lake and Temple Square. It was all breath takingly gorgeous and I had a smile on my face the whole time!! I ran into my love, Pasiaka, at Subway and it only added to an already amazing day!

We got back to Provo around 6 and got ready to go to Sammy's with Shelbyreena. It was delish!! I had chicken strips (of course!) and a smoothie. then, we had another antm moment, ROOMIE EDITION. I'm pretty sure all the people driving by laughed and pointed at us. nbd, we worked it in Provo! After our shoot, we went back to Shelb's bf's place and chilled until my eye lids got heavy and I called it a night. I LOVE UTAH!









Sunday
