Fun in Holbrook!

So this last weekend my roommate Jessica, my cousin Jeremy, and I got invited to go to a Young Single Adult activity in a small town called Joseph City. We stayed at my aunt's house in Holbrook which is like 10 minutes away from Joseph City. It was a lot of fun! While we were there we were able to go to the Snowflake Temple with some friends from EA. Tanner Gilliland and Bryan Fleming are the ones in the pictures below! But there were a bunch of other people that were there with us as well. Me and Jessica

My cousin Alannah was so happy for me to get there. We got to my aunt's house really late on Friday night and Laney wanted to wait up for me to get there. My aunt finally had to tell her to go to bed and I would be there when she woke up. She drew me a picture of me and her that was on the door when we got there haha! After we got back from the temple, Alannah was so happy we were back! All she wanted to do was play with us. We woke up and did three puzzles with her and she kept asking me to give her a bath or do her hair and she kept tickling Jeremy, which was really funny. When we went to church on Sunday she sat by us and she wrote a note with a bunch of jibberish written on it and I asked her what it said and she said, quote no joke "I love you. Get married. Old fart!" I asked her who she wrote it for and she pointed over to Jeremy and then said "But don't tell him right now. Tell him later!" (She is 5 years old and way wiser than her age haha!) She also drew some pretty funny pictures for me! I love her so much! She's one of my favorites that's for sure!

Before we went to the Young Single Adult activity we went to Pizza Hut to eat with our friends Katie Layden and Ryan Humes. Katie is going to be our roommate next semester and yes they are dating! These pictures were so funny but I'm only going to post the most funny ones haha! Pretty much there is a story to all of them so maybe I can get the ones that captures the story behind them haha!

The serious one
And finally a presentable one haha!

I didn't get any pictures at the YSA activity but I will tell about it anyway. It was an 8 stake activity, and there weren't very many people there haha! It was really fun though. They had tag baseball, a sand volleyball game, a dunking tank, a slip n slide, and lots of other activities. At first we didn't want to get wet because it was soooo windy at the temple but it wasn't too bad at the activity so we went on the slip n slide quite a few times and then Jeremy told me that he wanted to dunk me in the dunking tank and I said "Heck...okay! But only if I can dunk you too!" So since I'm short it took me quite a while to figure out a way to sit on the little seat thing to get dunked and when I finally got up there it took Ryan only one try to dunk me into the tank and then it took me forever to get BACK up so that way Jeremy could dunk me haha! Jeremy dunked me on the second try! It was funny! So then there wasn't a step inside the tank so Jessica was my stepping stool to get out of it haha! We were pretty good intertainment for whoever was watching! So then Jeremy got in, and I have awful aim so I knew I wouldn't hit it to get him in! I threw the ball three times and I went to go and pick the balls up and slipped in the real watery part and twisted my ankle pretty good so I had Ryan dunk him for me. And of course he is so tall that when he fell in his head didn't go under...where I fell completely under and was covered by like a lot of water haha! So then we went and got ready for the dance. Well Jeremy and I did. We only went to the dance for a little while because we didn't want to stay very long and we had to go and pick up Jessica anyway so that was our excuse haha! Katie's dad made us fajitas for dinner. It was very yummy! Then I was so exhausted that night that I fell asleep within like 5 minutes of laying down. Jessica and Jeremy stayed up to watch a movie but I was out for the whole entire thing. We went to church on Sunday and drove home Sunday afternoon. Driving home was an adventure in itself haha! You had to be there though to understand. It was pretty grand! That was our trip to Holbrook. We made that little town have a crazy weekend! And we had a blast getting to see old friends and make some new ones!
