Memories

So I was thinking today about my summer and all the wonderful times I shared with some of the people I love. There are so many to recall but right now, I feel like sharing the funny ones.

Like Charity Caldwell and I had some pretty wild times. One night while running the snack shack, I kid asked for a Red Monster drink. Haha, I went to grab it out of the fridge but dropped it. It cracked open or something and next thing we know Red Monster is spewing EVERYWHERE! Hahaha, Charity and I started laughing and while she got the guy his drink, I hurried to take the busted pop to the sink and clean up the mess. The accident that night led to an amazing discovery. For Charity created a Red Monster Frappe. And I must admit, it was delish!! :D

Then there was the night we (Charity C., Charity W. and I) convinced Sis. Calista to sleep out under the stars with us.
Bro. Derek had just found fresh bear droppings in the very field we were planning to camp out in and so we wanted to have some fun. We decided to fake a bear in the middle of the night. Charity C. and I stayed up til the others fell asleep then we snuck off and shook the bushes and made noises. Sis. Calista NOR Charity W. were waking up and so while I hid and tried to not shriek with laughter, Charity C. snuck over to Charity W. and woke her up. Then we tried again.

This time Sis. Calista woke up and Charity W. (playing along) ran and climbed a tree. Hilarious I tell you, hilarious. We ALL had a good laugh about it and then slept out under the stars. It was so beautiful.

Then there were the multiple kitchen pranks. My favorite was the thickener. There was this stuff called "Thick & Easy" and it thickened anything, cold or hot. So Charity C. and I initiated each person who came to help in the kitchen. It was SO thoughtful of us right? Asking whoever the unfortunate soul was, if we could get them a drink. Oh, so thoughtful. :p

So we would get them a drink and add in our little prank and they'd take a big drink and BLECK! THICK WATER?? How is that even possible...? With Elena and Charity....? Of course. ;)

"The Charitys" and I did many pranks and had an amazing times together. I really enjoyed EVERY moment with them. Working, playing, it was all amazing. They're both sweethearts. :)

----------------------------------------------------------

Another one of my funny memories would be at the Frey's. I spent alot of my time there and let me just say. They're amazing. We did so many fun things together! :D There were walks down by the pier and fishing trips. HAHAHA! Fishing...oh goodness. An epic story right there. And actually, my favorite memory.

One evening, Charity C. was staying over with me and Nicole. The whole family went down to the Blaine Pier. We met up with Kayla and her mom and Megga. (Also I got to meet some old friends of my moms)

Well, the boys headed down to the dock to fish, while us girls took pictures by the water and stood on the fountain singing three part harmony. SO FUN! After we had finished acting like weirdos, we decided to go down and see if the boys were having any luck with the fish.

Jonathan had caught this adorable fat faced fish and it took me a few seconds til I realized he has SNABBED THE POOR LITTLE THING THROUGH THE HEAD WITH A KNIFE??? NO! Yes, I'm afraid Jonathan has no heart. He's mean, cruel and....ok. I'm joking, he's not. :p But still, I was quite offended at such...brutality. However it didn't last long, cause soon I was asking if I could put it on the hook. (he was gonna use it for shark bait)

Gross. The little thing was smelly and slimey. But worse? Even though it was dead it still wiggled and....bleh! *shiver* I did manage to get it hooked though and then Charity and I asked if we could cast it out. Jonathan wasnt impressed and I think we may have even annoyed him a bit but he let us so I cast out. Like two feet ABOVE the water. Embarrassing BUT! Let me explain this rod.

It was really funky and had to be handled all special. So for me, who can hardly cast out a low maintenance Disney rod, this was a very difficult feat. And I utterly failed. :p

Charity on the other hand did AMAZING! I was really impressed. But of course it wasn't good enough for Jonathan so he reeled it in and cast him self...in the exact place Charity had just cast out to. Foolishness. So of course we got defensive and demanded another try. So there Charity goes. Perfect form, I was expecting another amazing cast. She casts but nothings happens. :O Whats going on?

BAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! She messed up and the line cast behind her and got tangled in some big black man's fishing pole. Like...MAJORLY tangled. It was sooooo funny! But I think she was scared of him. Cause while Jonathan assisted the man in untangling the line she kept apologizing profusely but the guy just grunted each time. I was trying not to laugh and everyone there with us watched and yeah. It was a big scene. NO fish that night but I did see a seal and THAT was soooo exciting. :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I spent some time at the Grunurt's as well. This story is funny AND scarey! Cause all I really remember is Tiff and I in Mel's room talking. She leaves for the bathroom and I drift off to sleep. Next thing I know she's back in the room telling me there a huge spider. Of course, since I'm TERRIFIED of any spider (big, small, thin, fat, short, tall...ALL!) and I'm still half asleep I jump up out of bed and scream. Uhm, folks. This is like at 3am. Yeeeah....not cool. But I thought she meant there was a spider in the bed or something. Hilarious, AFTER she explained it was in the BATHROOM and she'd killed it then thrown a towel on it. :p Oh, good times. :)

There were also late night swims and Scattagories. :)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

There's SO much more to tell, and Lord willing one day I can share it all with y'all but for now, I want to post some pictures. :) So that'd all for now.

Decorative Pillows

Here's a few options: (Just keep the colors in mind)






Redoing My Bedroom

Meet Bobo, Bongo, and Bubba Arthur, the cutest stuffed animals out there. ;) Hehe!


Gotta love how they match perfectly, right? Too cute. Anywho, I was looking at ways to paint my room and I found this. I love it! It's so...wacky!! :D I think I would do a two walls a bright white and then one the zigzags in grey and yellow and the last wall in the a blue.


But wait!! I looked and looked for a comforter I like. Everything was either too "young" or too "old"...then I found THIS!! 


HELLO PERFECTION!!!

Ahh, too cute. I'm sooo excited. Now, I just have to get the comforter and begin sewing pillows for decoration and making some wall art. Here's a few things I have in mind:

 Id make two of these with one blue and one yellow flower. :)

LOOOVE this idea. Wood plaques and modpogged photos! YES!

So cute, right? So creative...hehe

I'm thinking white lamp shade, and blue, grey and yellow flowers, yah? 

I'll post pillow ideas in another post. :)
