Homecoming - "Let It Fall"

Hair and Make up time! Megan and her friends were nice enough to help me with my hair on Saturday afternoon to get ready for homecoming! We had two straighteners going and make up and toes all at the same time! It was pretty fun. I felt pampered that's for sure. We all know that these girls could doll me up way better than I ever could, so they got the job. and they did excellent!

This was the final result...

Yes I had no idea that this picture was being taken but you can see a good angle of my hair and make up so, this was what those wonderful young ladies came up with! Then The door bell rang and my date was there. I'm not a big fan of the whole "take a billion pictures at the door" thing, because you pay for pictures at the dance, so I don't have many but here we are.

He was such a gentleman, he brought me a rose which was a complete surprise and I loved it!

We had a great time all day. I woke up that morning at eight to go and decorate the dance at Lone Peak. At first I wasn't to happy about having the dance at the school but I wish I would have taken a camera because it was to beautiful! There was a huge white sheer canopy covering the whole gym with white lights and iorn fencing around the walls. For our day activity, we rode the Alpine coaster which has got to be one of my favorite things to do. Then some lady came up to us and offered free tickets to the slides, I took them and realized that they were only passenger passes so Zach and I gave them to two little kids and made their day. After that we took the ski lift to the top of the resort and had a picnic! Our group was awesome we were all such good friends and goofed around together, I loved it! It was definately a great date!

Oh For the Love of Birthdays!

Once upon a time there was a beautiful girl who was 14. Every day of her life she wished the day would come when all of her dreams would come true. (meaning she couldn't wait to turn 15 and get a drivers permit.) That fateful day arrived on September 21st. Happy Happy Birthday to our lovely sister Megan! She is officially 15! shortly following this picture she blew out every candle! What ever she wished for, it will come true. Not to be corny but we all know how birthday wishes work. Anyway, while we were at dinner I said the good news about being 15 is, every day is one day closer to being 16. haha thats one way to look at it. She likes to think of it as one day closer to getting her lisence. But not the driving one, when she turns 16, she will get the traditional gift from katie and I, the one we both recieved, the license to kiss. ;) These are the pluthera of items that meg got for her birthday, minus one, a camera with which she is taking this picture. It's a good thing too becuase the camera our family uses is larger than life and needed to be retired. We will now leave the taking of the pictures for our blog up to Megan. Note the pink and red bag that katie and I gave her. :) oh ya!
This is my joy and excitment for meg's special day!
Katie- being the responsible one and doing the dishes after dinner, I am pretty sure I was asleep during that. ha ha ha
oh lovely! what a beautiful set of balloons there!
