clarification

This is post is written in an effort to add clarification to confusion, to stifle rumors, and adequately inform any who have asked questions pertaining to previous posts and/or pictures put on this blog. This is all due to my mom asking me why all of my old ward members/leaders/friends who are hip enough to have instagram and nice enough to read this blog were asking if I was engaged.

I am not engaged.

While everyone and their dog is getting engaged and married this fine spring/summer season it's like 101 Dalmatians up in here, I am not. I am involved with a few weddings because I love my friends, hence the pictures of me with wedding dresses, poofy hairnet things, and hashtags like #shoppingforaweddingdress and #tistheseasontobemarried.

Seeing all these wonderful people so happy and excited makes me so happy and excited. In fact, I think I like this position better than actually being engaged because I don't have to do any wedding planning. But I do get to feel like I'm on Say Yes to the Dress and I have an excuse to shop at places that have bright pink boxes and bags. So...it's a win win.


Know what else was a win win? This weekend. So many good things happened and I just had a blast. There was the Egypt Art Festival, The Boys and Girls Club Gala, seeing old friends and bonding over pizza from The Pie, laughing hysterically at stupid memes at 1:30am, seeing the best movie in the world again and then yelling about the significance of the perfect "questioning eyebrow" with my Lindsay-friend. My family played croquet i lost, like i always do tried our hands at "speed croquet," which is the single most terrifying experience I have had in the last 3 and a half years i lost that one too, sat around a fire in the backyard, laughed at the stories of my brother-in-law and his older brother when they were kids, and laughed at our own antics and stupid injuries we've sustained over the years the best were the really bad whiplash i gave myself my looking up at a launching rocket too fast and spencer's use of unpleasant leaves in the wilderness. 

It was a spectacular weekend and ended on the perfect note with emails from across the globe. technology rocks.

Behold.

Art Festival

I don't know how many comments were made about how the camel "is better behaved than her other boyfriend" by random parents standing by while this picture was taken.

....whaaaaa?

Do I even know you?

love that man in the background.

Who knew King Tut had hips?

More of him to love.

Gala

I seriously loved this building.

Design your own basket

I will never understand why anyone would ever want to visit an island that has live dinosaurs on it.

But the fossils are sweet.

 I could curl up in that thing's jaw like a kitten in a cardboard box.

This is NOT the dress I was going on about.

We're models.

Obvi.

Peace and finals.
