The Ugly Truth

I went to see The Ugly Truth tonight with Ashley and Heather. It was funny, I liked it :)

Vegas!

We left for Vegas early Friday morning. I went with my mom, and we met up with Ashley, her mom and sister before leaving so they could follow us. We stopped in Baker at Bob's Big Boy for lunch, and that's where my cousins Kelsey and Megan and my aunt Jill met us. Then we all drove the rest of the way to Vegas. On the way there, there was a thunderstorm. It was raining and the desert was flooded and everything, it was cool lol. When we got there, we checked into our hotel, and then headed to the outlet mall haha (well, except for Megan and Aunt Jill, they didn't want to go lol). Then we all met up for dinner at the buffet at The Sahara. Oh. My. Gosh. I ate SO much! haha. Ash, Kelsey, and I kept going back for more lol. Then we were on a sugar rush or something, because we were so hyper lol. We kept laughing hysterically. At one point I was almost on the floor up at the dessert bar lolol. Then we figured out there was some sort of high school basketball thing going on that weekend, because everywhere we looked there was a group of basketball guys lol. At the buffet, Ash waved to on of them, and he waved back. He was so cute, so after we all ate we decided we wanted to go hunt down those guys lol. The people over 21 went to the casino, and Ashley, Kelsey, Megan and I started our hunt lol. Well, Megan wasn't on the hunt, but she had to stay with us since she's not 21 yet. I felt bad for her, having to hang out with us crazy chicks lol. We walked around forever, and then finally found the guys in this Nascar area eating dinner =/ lol. So we just stood next to this race car they had there waiting for them to be done lol. Yes, we were stalkers lolol. While we were waiting, these 3 other guys came up and talked to us haha. They weren't really cute though, but they were nice. We told them we were in Vegas to take our senior pics and they thought we had already graduated lol. Then after those 3 guys left, the guys we were waiting for started to come over to us, but then we all started laughing because of the other guys, so then the cute guys turned around and left :( Sad times lol. So finally we left the Sahara and headed over to the Bellagio. We went in to Conservatory and then went out and watched the water show a couple of times. After that we were all finally exhausted, so we went back to the hotel and went to bed. The next day we all ate breakfast at the hotel buffet (yes, another buffet...lol) and then Ashley, Kelsey and I had to get ready for our senior pictures :) We got to the photographer's house at 1 and started our photo shoot. Let me tell you, it was the most awkward thing I have ever done lol. I just was not comfortable in front of him and everyone else. Ash wasn't either, but Kelsey was like a natural lol. It was just hard for me because it was just a white backdrop and I just had to stand there and figure out what to do. I didn't know what to do! lol. And I'm sad because I REALLY wanted my pictures to be outside, and he didn't do that. So I'm disappointed. But I'm still anxious to see my pics to see if I like them lol.

(Sorry for my crappy pics lol. I just used my point and shoot and my phone, because I didn't want to lug around my SLR all around Vegas haha.)


Ringling Bros. Circus at Honda Center

Grandma and Grandpa took Isabelle, Caroline, and I to the circus today! The girls were so excited, it's all they had talked about all week lol. I was excited too. I had never been to a REAL circus before, just one time I went to one of those little dinky ones under a tent lol. It was so much fun, we all really enjoyed it! Isabelle's favorite part was when these 2 girls got shot out of a cannon, and Caroline's favorite part was the elephants lol.


I was able to sneak in my big zoom lens, and I'm so glad because we were wayyy up high and I wouldn't have gotten very good shots without it lol.

Camera Shy Cutie

Caroline's a Big Girl!

Library and Mall

This morning I took Isabelle and Caroline to the library for story time. It was so cute. There were lots of little kids there. Isabelle sat on the mat with all the other kids, but Caroline just sat on my lap the whole time lol. They danced to a few songs, and the lady read 3 books about art. Then afterwards they all got a piece of paper to draw on. It was really cute. Then after that Ashley and her grandma picked me up and we went out to lunch at Marie Callender's, it was so good. Then Ashley's grandma dropped Ash and I off at the mall. I still needed to find a dress to wear for senior pictures lol. So we shopped for a while and I finally found a dress :). While I was out with Ashley, grandma and grandma took Isabelle and Caroline to an aquarium at Cabrillo Beach. After the mall Ashley came back to my grandma's house for dinner. The girls were excited to see her. Fun day, I'm glad I finally found a dress lol.
