Easter

So this Easter season my roommates and I decided to have egg tossing fun in our apartment. It was simply amazing. Here are some pictures and videos from our fun.

UH-MAZE-ING

Yeah so I'm pretty sure this is the best movie you've ever seen on a blog...well maybe Mel's nephew tops it with his "shirt" comments.(here's that link http://yepthesearethedays.blogspot.com/) :-) But tonight was our ward closing social. It was really great we had pizza and cookies and then we had some great entertainment. Melissa and I sang "I Need a Man" The song Lauren G Channel and I sang last year at the ward talent show. It was pretty much amazing and I just thought you guys would want to see it too. I know you'll all love it. :-)

If you can't understand it here are the lyrics

I Need A Man

Look at my smile; isn't it great?
Wouldn't you think that I'd have a date?
Lookin' at me, yeah, you'd think,
"She's got everything."

Look at my clothes; look at my face.
Just once I'd like to go to a nice place.
Fast-food and dollar matinees
They're not everything.

I've got hairspray and makeup aplenty;
I've used toothpaste and mouthwash galore.
Wanna go Dutch? I've got a twenty.
But who cares? No big deal; I want more.

I wanna be where the elders are.
I want one for my eternal companion
One who's not afraid of...
What's that word again? Oh...commitment.

In institute class you don't get too far;
Dates are required for real romancin'.
Hopin' for an engagement...
What's the word again? Ring!

A guy who is fun, a guy who is cute,
A guy who would look real good in a suit.
I'm really great; why don't I date?
I need a man!

What would I give if I could live in Salt Lake City?
What would I pay to spend a day on tem ple grounds?
Betcha they'd call if they weren't all just so intimidated.
Bright young maiden-sick of waitin'-
Ready for more!

And ready to know what the couples know.
Ask'em my questions and get some answers.
What is a gentleman and why is he...
What's the word? Extinct!

Why can't they think and see me now?
I am a woman worth more than eight cows!!
I'm really great; why don't I date?
I NEED A MAN!!

Today I just wanted to say I am very thankful for my roommates. It's been so great having them. They were good for my first roommates. I'm so glad we all got along and I'm so thankful for all of our exciting adventures since we've been together. I'd just like to post some pictures that we've taken throughout our time together

The Sound of Music distracted me... sorry it's lame.

So I don't know why I don't blog more. I guess it's just because I don't think anyone actually reads it so why should I put the time in when no one is going to read it. But my life over the past little while...
Lauren turned 21! So what better way to celebrate than a non-alcoholic bar? So we went to Spark. As usual it was delicious.

My cousin Emily got married this March. She looked beautiful as always. Jonathan came as my surprise date. You all know Jonathan went on his mission to Bend and that's where we met so when he was free for the weekend I invited him to Emily's wedding. My parents ended up guessing who my date was just because I apparently suck at lying. They enjoyed talking to him. He is way smart he was talking to Dad about stuff I had no clue about. But it was a beautiful wedding here are some pictures

My parents came home for that weekend because Claytin was blessed that Sunday. It's crazy he's gettin so big! After the blessing we went back to Brendan and Dahlia's for some food. We have family and friends show up. Clay is a very loved child.

I also went to the Festival of Colors. It is pretty much so amazing. Here's some information about it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holi I can't really explain it. But it's really cool. None of us had ever gone so for our first time. We decided to make shirts I think they were pretty sweet. Carrie's brother Tyler came too. It was way fun. I don't even know what to say about it other then it being amazing.
