THE LONGEST POST EVER!

SISTER'S WEEKEND

First, I picked Stacey and Leslie up from the airport and we rushed to the LDS Humanitarian Center for a quick tour. Then, we rushed back to temple square so they could go and do a session together. Then, we rushed to The Melting Pot. I'd never been and neither had Leslie.

THE MELTING POT

"Hmmmm?"

The pokers.

The cheese was GOOD!

A man at the bar grabbed me and Stace and told us to give Leslie these flowers. She asked me who it was, so we snuck around the corner and I pointed him out. We were all giggling and excited. They were really pretty roses.

We eventually told her that when Stacey and I went to the bathroom Stace had found them sitting in the garbage. (There's gotta be a story to that one.) We laughed....and ended up putting the flowers in a cup at my apartment. We had all of the workers talking about us by the end of the night.

Mmmmmm, garbage roses.

"For me?!"

Our FLAMING dessert! WOO!

So, we were all sitting around talking and laughing. After a long day we got pretty slap happy. I started doing impersonations of Stuart from madTV. Apparently I was doing them too well, and right at the correct moment...when Stacey was drinking her pop.

Not only did it come out of her nose, but she started chocking or something. We didn't even think to help her because we were all laughing too hard. Luckily I got picture!
"Doooooooon't. Let me do it!"

THE LAGOON

FIRST RIDE!

SPIDER

The Coolest ride that's free in the park!

Can we get a close-up?

Apparently, I'm the only on who realizes that we are under a huge spider. RARRR!

I guess he turned out to be our friend. Ah, cute.

(I was pretty sure I was tall enough)

Leslie-is-hotter-than-me-realization-moment #1:

Picture Kronk from Emperor's New Grove when he freezes mid-stealing the llama and yells, "AHHHH ahhhh AHHH ahhhh..." while moving his lips in a circle.

Awesome looking, huh?

WICKED
2nd coolest ride....

We waited in line forever!

Here I am sporting a fanny pack.

Here we are watching people go to their deaths. I swear, from this point it goes from snail to jet-plane in .2 seconds. It is insane!

Here we are wanting a picture, but they wouldn't take it unless their buddy got in it. A-W-K-W-A-R-D.

This picture doesn't even do it justice.

7 seconds of madness!!!!!!!!

THE COLOSSUS

I love roller coasters.

Turn down the music before you play this video.

I don't know what this thing is called. It's like a chair-lift. So here's Leslie and I...with Stace in the background...

Almost dying...

And composing herself again.

I had not been on this ride yet. IT WAS AWESOME!

Stacey went a second time with Leslie.


Turn off the music at the bottom....and fast-forward this to like the middle. ha ha.

PIONEER LAND
I know you're excited!

The gun show.

We had our teeth checked. Leslie got off easy. Stacey and I didn't.

"I'm wishing.....for the one I love...."

How we looked after the Rattlesnake Rapids ride. You should have seen how fast we can move when faced with a waterfall .5 seconds away. The people above the ride actually started laughing as they watched us scramble. I think we made it out pretty dry....considering.

SKY COASTER
AKA "THE DEATH DROP"
AKA "THE HEART STOPPER"

So, this picture looks interesting of this guy. Now that I look back...I might have wondered why he was touching my chest...had he not been strapping me in for safety.

Apparently, I was supposed to be holding it up, but no one told me...So I'm the only one posing.

Pretty sure 2 out of 3 of these lovely ladies feel like they're going to have heart failure. Leslie...has no clue what's about to happen.

Looks like a normal smiling pose, does it not? Well, you would be incorrect! A self-absorbed, camera-hogging, diva tried to ruin this lovely shot. Stacey tried to stop this from happening, but had no way of riding the picture without ruining it in the process.

Close-up please. Yes, that is a fly. She told me about it after the picture was taken. I didn't believe her until the pics were on my computer. Thank goodness for photoshop.

The beginnings of the "WHAT AM I DOING" feelings. Yet, still, I wave for the camera.

Be sure to turn the music down at the bottom so you can hear our screams on the video. Enjoy!

SWINGS

PEDICURE DAY

We decided to get pampered before Comedy Sports that night. WOO. I love pedicures. I can't think of many things that I love more. (Yes, I'm aware that I say that all the time.)

Barbie Doll Pink with a little Marilyn Monroe Diamond. Ping!

Stacey, Brit and I went to get pedicures for Brit's wedding reception. At the time Stacey had a black toe. She tried to talk to ladies into giving her a fake one, but they looked at her and said no. Personally, I thought it was hilarious. When she had her foot in the water she did the Jaws theme song right before she took it out for the lady to work on. It was priceless.

This is what her toe looks like now. It's coming along nicely don't you think?

Apparently, the ladies in Utah are more understanding about "such things". They agreed to give her a toe without batting an eye.

Isn't it stunning?!

Pretty sure outsiders could tell we were related just by looking at this photo: flip-flops, same toes, pedicures....ha ha.

COMEDY SPORTS

Enthusiastic-Face-Contest-Winners:
Leslie! AND Stacey!
WOOOO!

We are SO hot! (Stacey, totally CUTE black shirt and blue shirt over it!!!!)

Kramer in the background.

Leslie-is-hotter-than-me-realization-moment #2
"Oh I'll put my face against yours...." Thought the guy in the red.

"Ew get off me, your sister is HOTTER," he reconsidered in that weird, Ron Burgundy voice. Leslie, you ARE hot!

GO TEAM GO! BEAT THE OPPONENTS SOUNDLY!

THE MAYAN ADVENTURE

Final Dining Destination.

Food still sucks. Divers still rock. Atmosphere is awesome.

OOOOO, pretty.

So, we finish our food and walk down to the water for a closer look and some pictures when suddenly, this mostly-naked guy comes walking through a side door with his unicycle. Apparently, ancient diver by day, circus by night. He must make pretty good money.

TEMPLE SQUARE

After the Mayan we drove to Temple Square. The weather wasn't too hot. It was gorgeous outside. We walked around and took some beautiful pictures. Stacey's will be so amazing. These ones are just with my normal camera. I'm excited to see how hers turned out.

After temple square I took the wrong highway entrance, realized I was way too north, called Greg, turned around, went south, then west, and eventually got my sisters to the airport. Thank you so much Stacey and Leslie for coming to see me! It was the most fun I've had in a while. I love you!!!
