vacation time || part two

it's time for the part two of this vacation, are you excited... because you should be!


on our last day my cute cousin, allie, came down to las vegas for a couple of hours.... in those couple of hours we decided to be dare devils. so we went up to the stratosphere and did the thriller rides.... the view was fantastic and the ride was crazy amazing! i am terrified of heights so this was an accomplishment of mine, pretty proud of myself. 

 ^^crap-ee photo quality

we were on the 112th floor.... that is really high- SUPER HIGH. allie and i were so excited we could not control our selves... i can now finally cross that off my bucket list. i would totally do this again- for sure!


after the stratosphere my aunt and uncle picked us up and we headed up to st. george. after the long car ride, allie and i got huge snowies and scarfed it all gone.


that night we went to go see Mary Poppins at Tuacahn! my teacher is mary poppins, so it was cool to actually see her perform! the cast was amazing, the dances were fantastic... it was super cute. i'm not gonna go into detail about it, because i don't want to spoil it for you people who haven't seen it!
 ^^ my cousin is cool because she has a face on her tree.

sunday i went to allies church, had lunch, and then went home. 
i love vacations and i'm glad i got to end my summer doing all these things. school is in a week, and i'm so excited i can't handle it!

camping in the mountains.

i got home from girls camp today, and it was so much fun. we got cute accessories and felt the spirit so strong. we were at the heber valley camp, so that means cabins... which made it extra special. 


this girls camp consisted of: canoeing on a lake, long hikes every day, star gazing, skit nights, staying up way to late, ice cream at mid-night, hot showers, no make up, eating to much delicious food, testimony meeting, challenge courses, and doing pranks all night long. 

i am grateful that i got to spend 5 days feeling the spirit and gaining better friendships. i loved every second of it... although i wanted to go home because i was home sick, it was fabulous. i've been there 3 out of the four times i've gone to girls camp, and every time i've gone there... the spirit is so strong and amazing. i'm grateful for my heavenly father and the opportunities he gives me, i am truly blessed. 

i am sad it's over... the week flew by to quickly, but i am so glad i am home!

hikes in the rain.

{i'm really lacking on posting things on my blog...last time i posted felt like a million years ago.}

last night the youth went on a hike and it was pouring cats and dogs. it was the best experiences of my life! all the windows were down, we had the music turned up all the way, and getting drenched from the rain coming into the car... it was seriously the best thing ever. i now love going on hikes when it is raining like crazy, especially when you have your best friends with you. last night counted for the best hike of my life.

kicking off the first week of july.

this first week of july has been pretty awesome. fourth of july, breaking into ryan's house, snowies, movies, and parties. yup that is my kind of week. 

to kick it off megan and i got snowies. this heat wave is ridiculous here in utah, and i was craving a sno cone. 

later that night was our block party and we partied it up for the fourth of july. a couple of girls and i went to my good friend ryan's house, and sorta broke in.. no not really they wouldn't answer their door so i walked in. that's weird... no it actually isn't because ryan and i are like brother and sister. we walked in and of course all the lights were turned off. we ran down to their basement trying to search for them, and ryan's brother scared the pee out of me... literally. later that night we went trash bagging with the boys and us girls and it was oh so fun. 

next day i went to the movies with some boys and girls from the night before to see superman. i could see that movie 5 times because i like it so much.


fourth of july was oh so fun. i was in the provo parade and man it was hot. that parade was so long.... five guys asked for my number, two boys blew kisses at me, and one told me "wow your gorgeous." the fire works were awesome and the food was fantastic. 


i think it is crazy that it's july and crazy that school is almost in a month... wow! hope you all had a wonderful fourth of july!

3 Days In The Middle of No Where //drama //run away boys.

This year youth conference was in the middle of no where. 45 minutes outside of delta. to be honest the building that we stayed in made us all feel like we were in prison. all of us girls slept inside, but the boys slept outside. i loved youth conference this year, i grew closer to everyone than ever before. there was a lot of drama... but that always happens when i go camping with our ward. 

Thursday:
we all met at the stake center and headed on the bus. we slept on the LONGEST BUS RIDE EVER until we reached our destination. we unpacked and went downstairs to got assigned to our family//color group. we played a bunch of team unity games for four hours, and then had free time. we all took a nap and had dinner a couple of hours later. the food was okay, wasn't the best. for three days i was eating gold fish, and other snack food. after dinner we got ready for the dance. we partied that dance floor like never before, and had the best of times. i danced with a couple of boys and enjoyed talking with them. the DJ at that dance was the WORST DJ ever. all the songs kept on swearing and some songs even said sexual things in there..... what?! it was shocking and the DJ just laughed and laughed. (Idiot) after partying for three hours we took a shower and got ready for bed. nicole, kylie, kaylee, and brittney stayed up till 4 am. we did pranks all night long, and were doing crazy things. we snuck into the kitchen and got rolls from a leader. haha. and we played in the racket ball room for hours. we were really loud also... oops! but at youth conference//girls camp us girls never go to bed. NEVER.


Friday:
we woke up exhausted and headed down for breakfast. while waiting in line girls were telling the boys this "a group of obnoxious girls were up all night long. we couldn't even go to sleep. they were so annoying." and we were standing right behind them. lol. we turned into celebrities from that night, everyone couldn't stop talking about us. breakfast was.... hm... let's not go there about how bad it was. the whole entire day we had devotionals, and they were really good. my group of friends i hung out from last night were all asleep. we tried so hard not to fall asleep, but we couldn't help it. (now here comes the drama) three boys [wont be saying their names] were not cooperating with anyone, and were lying to the leaders and everyone else. they went to all the boys spring bar tents and took all the poles off the tents. the tents collapsed on everyones things and broke some peoples stuff. these other 2 boys were mad that the three boys did that, and so the 2 boys decided to pee on there things. as soon as the 3 boys walked into their tent there was a huge smell of pee and m&m's were all over there things. 

testimony meeting came and the 3 boys didn't show up. the leader found them and but them in our group (the boys are in our ward.) testimony meeting was amazing. i loved hearing from everyone especially the boys because i never get to hear their testimonies. a lot of the boys got very emotional and i thought that was super sweet. i bared my testimony and i did great- haha. at the end of testimony meeting we all got ready for bed.... and the leaders asked if we knew where the three boys were. the young men and young women leaders were furious with those boys from all the crap they did since we got there. the young men leaders searched until 1 am to find where those boys were. they finally found them. they were walking on the streets heading towards delta city. THEY RAN AWAY GUYS. i was completely shocked that they would run away. they ran away because they were upset with everyone, and especially the boys who peed on there stuff. 

after all the chaos we got ready for bed. this night was even more fun then thursday. and we were a little bit more louder than the night before. :) kylie and nic ran down stairs into the kitchen and got popsicles for all of us girls and did pranks on other people. we couldn't stop laughing and we couldn't go to bed. we finally crashed at around 4 and slept for 3 hours.


Saturday: 
we were officially grumpy as ever and did not want to wake up. but it was totally worth it because we had the best time ever staying up. we headed down for breakfast and saw those three boys and the three boys parents. (busted!) the 3 boys got there cereal and we to the two boys who peed on there stuff. the three boys threw there milk and cereal at the two boys. us girls were right in front of the situation and were shocked that they did that ESPECIALLY when their parents were right in front of them. as soon as the young men leaders took them out side with their parents to talk, something else happened. when they walked out side us girls were headed up stairs to pack. then right in front of our eyes this boy comes up to a kid and punches him in the face and chest. [WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!] it was the scariest sight of my life. the boy who got punched fell to the ground unconscious and was shaking like crazy. the leaders ran over and helped the kid quickly. the boy who punched him got in huge trouble. the boys woke up with a bruise on the side of his head and had to lay on the ground for a while. 


we headed upstairs to pack and i was furious, all of us girls were. (there was drama between me and this one girl but i wont go into that.) i was upset about the girl who kept making me upset, and from the huge bullying going on. i finally snapped at the girl who did stuff to me that week. i stood up for my self and everyone else who was by me. i've been upset with her for a long time now, and i've been wanting to tell her things and a little bit of those things came out of my mouth at that moment. she told everyone at camp, and everyone thought i was a brat.... well that sucks for me. but i am proud for what i said because she needed to hear it. even though she didn't care what i said, i'm still glad i said it. 


we got a lot of popsicles and headed for the buses. brittney and i took a little nap on the bus, and then talked with some boys in our ward. we got home and i was so happy to be back. i got my things and headed home. 
nicole and kylie putting up our towels on the thing because the stupid security light made it hard for us to sleep. 
i am super happy i went to youth conference. best time of my life. i grew closer to girls and grew closer to the guys. i felt the spirit a ton and also grew a stronger relationship with my heavenly father. 

[sorry if you didn't understand the drama, but i tried to make it less confusing as possible.]

Lagoon Day.

Today was Lagoon Day- and it was so much fun. I love Lagoon, not as much as Disneyland- but this is the best place here in Utah. -well for me. 

This morning i woke up with confusion and some tears {duh i'm a teenager} i solved every problem, and i resumed getting ready. I headed out the door to my school and saw 6 charter buses. Guys- last year they only used two charter buses... so many ninth graders this year that they had 6. My charter bus was freakin awesome. it was a double decker, and it was the coolest thing in the planet. chatted with my best friends, and caught up in all their love lives. guys i have missed them so much, and spending the day with all my favorite people was the BEST. 



40 minutes later we arrived at our destination, i was so excited i was jumping up and down in my seat. we got our CHEAP tickets and headed off for some fun. we started off with kiddy rides {the best rides} and had the best time. as we were walking around i see my cousin, and a bunch of other kids i went to mountainville with. i screamed and hugged all of those people, and we were so excited to see eachother. last time we saw each other was FOUR YEARS AGO. it's so funny seeing them now, they all have changed SO MUCH- WOW. it was the best thing in the whole world reuniting with my old best friends from forever ago. 

We went on spiny rides that make you go upside down like crazy... and i think i'm turning into my mom. every time i went on something that went upside down INCLUDING roller coasters i was about to vomit. it makes me so sad because i love roller coasters. so i bought myself motion sickness pills... man lagoon has everything at their little "store."

I hung out with these cute girlies the whole entire day- and boy it was a blast. we almost died a couple of times, but that's alright. :) 



The whether was absolutely beautiful. i was worried that it was going to rain- but it didn't. :) we went on the sky lifters, and i rode with Ammon on the way to the other side of lagoon. it was nice talking to each other, and catching up on each others lives. laughed a ton, and told each other recent funny stories. it was fantastic. just like old times but... like a new mature ammon and sienna. 


look how cute we are. :) this was ammon's first time at lagoon AND first time on roller coasters or anything crazy like this. he loved everything- except the rocket.... boy he is scared of heights. but he is a trooper because he went on it. my first time i was FORCED to go on it. - and i ended up loving it:) 

{for those who are wondering what happened... well you ain't gonna know that. but i will tell you that we still like//love each other like we used too. so it's all good:) just maturing here people!}


we ate subway for lunch- and it was yummy... but man the prices were ridiculous. $10 for a foot long... are you kidding me?! wow- but the $5 six inch sub was worth it. we headed off to raddle snake rapids and i got soaked... oh my gosh- megan just decides to push me under the water fall... {thanks meg love you!} wicked was oh so fun and also the samurai. :) we went to a couple more rides and headed off to the bus. 

i screamed so loud my throat is so sore... oh it hurts so much. we got on our wicked bus and headed home:( i was exhausted from that day and i slept like a baby on the bus. well actually everyone did. except these loud boys talking about fat people... jerks. 

it was a fantastic day and i just wanted to be there for a little bit longer. best day ever.

tomorrow is the last day of school... i can't believe it. there will be a lot of hugs, tears, and good byes to some people. i love all of those people with my heart. but it will be alright.

This school year went by way to fast, it is seriously crazy. I'm sick of school, and i'm so glad that it's ending. I can't wait for tenth grade, i don't know why- i just am. No more being at the bottom of the food chain.

DIY Gelatine Pore Strip.


Ingreidents:
1 Package of unscented gelatine
2 tsp of milk {any kind}

Instructions:
Mix really fast- and put in the microwave 10-15 seconds- put mixture on your face where needed- leave it on your face for 15 minutes longest 15 minutes of your life

{We could barely open our mouths.}

Results:
HURT LIKE HECK taking off the Gelatine glob on our face. As i looked into the mirror i didn't see any good results. Over night though, i saw a lot of difference in my face- which is fantastic! I would only recommend this only doing it like once a month, or once a week. It is really harsh on your skin, well to me it was. But- you don't have the same skin as i do. So do it when ever you want. 
It was great trying this out. It hurt- but when it comes to beauty, there is pain!

Until next time
XOXO
