Best Friends Weekend

So my computer has recently decided to take a sabbatical. Meaning that for the time being it is out of commission. Gone. Crashed. Done. Dead.  It's like the all the opposition of the blogging world is conspiring against me .. first my camera, then my computer.. what's next? Awesome life experiences to blog about? (knock on wood that's not next-- my life is already pretty boring if my life experiences get anymore boring I'll be in jail or dead.) But despite this, I'm going to try to fight back and blog from work for a little while ... So here's my belated post on my

BEST FRIEND'S WEEKEND IN ST. GEORGE!

The weekend was so much fun. We got there on Friday and although I don't have pictures of it at the moment.... We dyed hair, had a very interesting talent show, and loved being together! It was a blast!

The next day we made a list of 13 things we could do in St. George. We decided to go to the 'mall' of St. George! It was so much fun. Instead of shopping for ourselves we decided to have a gift exchange. We all drew a name and then we all went shopping together for a while. Then we split up and had 20 minutes to buy gifts for each other. SO MUCH FUN! I really enjoyed that part of the day. Then we went to the grocery store for dessert supplies. Then we went out to dinner, sticking to tradition we went to  Chili's -- we ate in the bar part of the restaurant -- most likely because our server could tell Alexa was on the verge of being 21


We came home after our delicious dinner experience -- and played drinking games with shot glasses and root (pronounced rut) beer! So fun! But... just so you carbonation is actually pretty filling, even drinking it a shot glass at a time! :)

The Group - minus Chelsea!

The Group plus Chelsea! 
 After our stomachs settled back down we had brownies and gluten-free mousse as an early celebration of the beautiful amazing Alexa!

Isn't she great!?
We then watched movies till all hours of the morning and had a wonderful time with that as well.. The next morning we were off to a great Church meeting! We left Church after sacrament meeting to eat before we headed back home and we used the time to take some group photos --- photography skills on these ones go to Miss Stacey McKnight!

FAB FOUR REUNITED! :)

Chelsea's the tallest! 

Jumping for Joy?

We love Edward!
I love these girls so much and I'm so glad we got to go through high school together. We were good for each other and it turns out in college you need the same kinds of friends. Even though we don't get to see each other that much -- it always feels like nothing has changed between the four of us. What a blessing! I'm especially glad to celebrate a whole holiday weekend about on my best friends ALEXA! She is such a great girl --  so sincere, non-judgemental, adventurous, fun-loving, and genuinely caring. She's a blessing to me all by herself! I'm so glad I got to go down and relax before all of this school stuff starts getting really intense and there was no better way to spend my weekend! :)
