Long time, no talk.

Oh my goodness, it's been awhile since I've blogged..
Umm...well I guess I can catch you up on what I've been up to lately.
Thursday, Braden Winder received his mission call! He reports to the MTC in Provo on November 30th as he prepares to serve his mission in San Antonio, Texas! The perfect place for Braden! haha. The mission is also Spanish speaking, which is awesome! He will be able to hang out in the MTC with Taylor for awhile too, so that's awesome! After Braden opened his call, I went to Eric Swenson's house for his goodbye party! It was a blast! I never played a funner game of spoons with such funny (and violent) people! After his party, I took Ronnie to Becka Dimick's house, and got so happy because I didn't have to pick Taylor up from work, so I stayed at her house and watched Jersey Shore with her, Ronnie, Carissa, Kim, and Fedde :) Then we played slapjack and Fedde had to eat a teaspoon of cinammon (which is physically impossible). It was too funny!

Then on Friday, I went to a goodbye dinner for Eric at Olive Garden with Hadley, Jessie, and Senia. After dinner we went Coning and trashbagging. SO MUCH FUN! I am going to miss Eric so much!

Friday night I went to Krave. It's a nightclub on the strip that is 18 and up on Fridays. Oh, did I mention it's a gay club? haha. That seriously made it more fun though, because gay guys are so nice, and it takes away from people trying to hit on you. Anyway, I had an amazing time! I loved just being out with my friends and dancing for hours. I went with Kayla, Ronnie, Becka, June, Carissa, Ale, and Nicole. Gooood times! They are some of the funnest people to be around. I got called beautiful numerous amounts of times by gay guys there. They are the sweetest! Kayla and I even knew one of the dancers that was on stage. He used to be in Stuco at LVA. haha.

That's foam falling on us in the picture :) It was too legit. Just a big tease making me wish I was 21 already so I could go to more clubs. Oh well.

Saturday was pretty decent. I had to work from 5pm-11pm so in the morning I went to Taylor's house and just hung out and took an afternoon nap there, since I was so tired from the night before :p haha. Then, I left for work and when I got there I was finally informed that it was my last day! It's bittersweet. I hate it there, but I need money. Oh well though. I didn't get fired for doing anything wrong really. They just have high standards and put a lot of pressure on their employees, and I guess last week they didn't like my performance, so they cut my hours...I GOT AN ENTIRE WEEK OFF. That means half a paycheck. Don't they know I have bills to pay? Anyway, I brought it to their attention and they let me go. Oh well. Hopefully though I get this job as a hostess at a restaurant because my dad is friends with the manager. I put my application in today. I also interviewed with Victoria's Secret last week, they told me they will be calling sometime next week to let me know how I did. I would definitely enjoy that job! Anyway, back to Saturday..after work Taylor came to my house and suprised me with 2 of my favorite things; Chapstick and Blue Powerade! Best boyfriend ever? Maybe...then he took me out to dinner, and since it was 12:30am, our options were limited. We went to TGI Friday's because they're open until 2am. It worked out too, because we had a thing for a free appetizer :)

Sunday was such a lovely day. I must give it to the Winders, they are the best! You see, Thursday after Braden opened his mission call, his dad sat me down for like an hour and talked to me about life. Him and I used to be really close, so it was nice to catch up. He invited me to come to church with them on Sunday, so I was polite and said sure. So, Sunday morning I picked up Taylor and him and I went to Braden's ward. The talks given that day were very nice. After Sacrament Tay and I joined Braden and Hans in Relief Society, where we couldn't help but laugh to ourselves because the teacher reminded us SO much of Mitch Cizmas! It was crazy! After 2nd hour, I went with Scout to Young Women's and she was very nice :) Everyone there was. We had a great lesson about sacrificing things for others, or to complete a goal. After church, Taylor and I went to his mom's house to have Sunday dinner with his mom, stepdad, and new step siblings and their husbands....Taylor isnt too fond of that family, but I enjoyed their company. They were so nice to me and we had great conversations! Dinner was also delicious, like always :) After dinner, Braden invited us over to his house to meet the missionaries (Braden's dad is trying to get me to convert) haha. Anyway, Taylor and I went to the Winder's home and had a lovely meeting with the missionaries. They were very nice and enjoyed their company. The Winder's were very sweet to invite me into their home like that :) I've always loved that family. After the missionary lessons, Taylor and I decided to do Sunday dinner, round two :) We went to my house where there was homemade spaghetti and meatballs! YUM! Taylor and I started with a bowl of chocolate ice cream though, because that's how we do ;) Then we had some spaghetti and watched one of my favorite movies, Whatever It Takes! After that, we decided to go play some soccer, but by the time we got to the park we were so tired, we just took out a blanket and layed in the grass for like 3 hours. Then we went back to Taylor's house, had Sunday dinner round 3 (the left overs from earlier), watched Bride Wars, and fell asleep! It was a great day!
