Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

First of all, i would like to point out that this is post number 9 where i have titled it a song name... i am awesome!

Riley's Graduation was this last Tuesday. and i am SOOOO proud of him. seriously i have like the freakin awesomest husband ever... wow anyone wanna count the made up words and grammatical errors in that sentance :) So he was one of the Honor Grads so he got his promotion. it was pretty cool to be there for that. after graduation he got to take me to the chow hall and we had lunch..... it smelt like high school.... and totally was NOT worth $5 but it was fine.

He had to ride the bus to the airport so i hopped in my car and beat them there by like an hour. anyway after a few minutes together i sent him off to Hawaii to get settled and wait patiently for me.

so this weekend i am back up at the Steven's house. Mark and Paula needed to head down to st george for the weekend to tend to their "up for sale" condo. so i am here with Jenny... my AWESOME adopted sister in law! it is just what i needed to cheer me up after saying goodbye, YET AGAIN, to Rye. can i just say how OLD saying goodbye can get. i'm so over it. so here are mine and Jenny's adventures of the weekend...... so far :)

Thursday night- we hopped in Jenny's convertable mustang and headed down to Sarah's (Jen's sister) he put the top down, it was like 8 at night and pretty freakin cold. and we BLASTED Lady Gaga and Justin Beiber all the way down to orem. it was an AWESOME drive! we went out to dinner with Sarah then headed back to Sarah's and played "he said, she said" had some laughs and then headed home for the night. on our way Jenny's boyfriend called and asked what we were up to this weekend.

Jenny- "i dunno"
Me- "we're painting the town red!!!!!!"
Jenny "we should paint the house!"
Me - "WE SHOULD PAINT THE WALL!!!!"

her family moved into this house like 3 years ago and there is ONE wall that has yet to be painted. because Paula cannot pick a color. her exact words were "we just need to pick a color a paint, cause i'll never pick." and thus the plan was made!

Friday- Kat stopped by the house that morning and we invited her to breakfast, we went to Magleby's for breakfast (SHOUT OUT TO LALO! I FREAKIN MISS YOU LET'S GO THERE!)

so after the best french toast in the world we went to home depot to get paint. then went to the shop and picked up all the painting supplies and headed back to the house to paint. the parents still have NO idea we have done this :)

as you can all see... i was not TRYING to look glamorous :) just threw on my kick ball jersey and had at it. so the wall is now painted! yay! so Kat left and it was just Me Jenny and Tyler (Jenny's boy)

Me and Jenny had already decided we were going to watch "The Princess and the frog" Tyler decided he'd stick around. so i made a TON of top ramen with hard boiled eggs for us and we headed down to the theater room. after that movie we threw in "Hercules" on VHS so we went from BluRay to VHS...... wow, i am so thankful technology has evolved PAST that!

Saturday- Jenny wanted the Big M for breakfast, but i convinced her i knew a better place. and since i have yet to bring her someplace gross, she trusted me. so Gandolfo's for breakfast it was.. and it was SOOOO GOOD. then i went out to lunch with my good friend Kara, i hadn't seen her in YEARS, me and Rye were pretty close to her back in high school. it was WAY nice to catch up. then i went back and got jenny. we drove to Orem and got my brother Phil cause i was going to do his senior pictures. he had to go home for a few to shower and change. so while we were waiting for him. i taught Jenny how to drive a stick shift! and she did AWESOME! Paul wanted to tag along, so the 4 of us drove down to utah lake...

note to self, Utah lake is SUPER boring for pictures... don't go there again. the Zombie house would have been sooo much better! anyway while we were there Jenny climbed a tree and i was taking pictures of her. i told Phil to go climb up. he did.... and has horrible judgement we've decided! he stepped on like a TINY branch and it broke... cause it was like 3 fingers around.... idiot :) he fell like 15 feet.... and onto a log... OUCH.

sorry brother!!!!!!!

so saturday night we had a girls nightr and watched "Anastasia" LOVE that movie!!!! and then since i'm getting old i went to bed :)

Sunday. we decided we should probably clean up the house before the parentals got home. so we.....

-Vacuumed downstairs

-Vacuumed the Stairs

-Vacuumed the WHOLE upstairs

-moved the furniture and Vacuumed under it all.

-killed some ants

-did all the dishes (dry heaved a few times from opening mystery containers)

-SCRUBBED the tile in the kitchen

-AND took all the trash out

now tonight i'm going to make Riley's recipe of his AMAZING orange chicken... sooo excited.

and it's made this week so much nicer that i can Text Rye ALL DAY, and then call him anytime i want. i LOVE being able to call and wake him up. which i did so this morning. he was soo sleepy but happy to talk to me. it's a 4 hour time difference which sucks cause i have to wait so long after i wake up to talk to him. and i go to bed so much earlier than him. when it's midnight for me it's only 8 for him... this SUCKS

i am soo over being apart. soon though i'll be on a plane on my way to Hawaii... and we'll be together.

He's strugglin more than i am. probably cause i'm used to him being gone and having to keep myself entertained and happy. cause i know how miserable i can be... and it's MISERABLE! so i am keeping my possitive attitude and trying to rub off on Rye... cause he need to stay happy. LOVE YOU BUM!!!!
