Obsessions!

Mostly I don't really buy into what seems to be the current "obsession" among those around me...but recently I've checked a few of them out and fallen into the obsession.
First the "Twilight" series. It's a series of three books about a girl who falls in love with a vampire. I've only read the first one but it took me only a few days to read the whole thing (about 500 pages). It was so good. I could even imagine myself gliding instead of walking just the vampires in the story. It had completely changed my view of vampires. Currently I'm waiting for my sister to finish the 2nd book...it's taking forever.
Second, Several friend and family members are currently obsessed with shows from the BBC. Last week while I was sick I borrowed my friends set of the first season of BBC's Robin hood. It was so good and the British actor who plays Robin hood is so adorable and charming. I Love it!
...Well that's really it....I guess it's not that many...but hey I guess there really is something to obsessions....sometimes.

WICKED!

Over spring break and to celebrate my sister Callie's birthday my Mom got my sisters and I tickets to go to see the Broadway musical Wicked.


Here we are dressed up, EXCITED, and ready to go!

Here's Callie and I outside the theater, it was really pretty! We love, love, loved it the music was amazing, the actresses who played the witches were fantastic, and we had pretty much the best seats in the house!

We went to dinner afterward. Here's a pick we took with our tickets while waiting for our food.

Here's a bonus pic of my hair. My sister Brianna did my hair with: tons of hair spray, some serious ratting, and a curling iron. Afterward she laughed and said it looked like I had dreadlocks. It looked good to me.

Hiking

Last weekend we went hiking in Reservoir canyon with my Aunt and Uncle and their family. It was a really beautiful day nice and cool, while still being nice and sunny. The hike was not too difficult so it was enjoyable for all.


Here's the fam hiking along.

Some pics that I took along the way.

The stream that we hiked along.

There were several little waterfalls along the way. Gorgeous, Gorgeous California!

Cousin's Pictures

Well I'm at my brother's house right now and because he has fast internet I decided to post some more pictures from Easter evening. Here I am with my siblings.


Here we are again but this time Matthew and Callie were trying to take a more "serious" picture and Brianna and I were being silly.

Here's all of us girl cousins in what Matthew deemed our "girl band" picture.

Here we are being a little more normal.

Here's another girl cousins pic. that I thought was cute.

Easter Sunday!

After church on Easter Sunday we took some pic's, it was such a beautiful day! Church was wonderful and dinner and spending time with my Mom's side of the family was excellent. Happy week after Easter everyone.

Dying Easter Eggs!

Easter weekend it's a tradition to dye Easter Eggs. We keep the tradition alive to spite the fact that we are all adults. This year Myriah and her Mom joined us, here they are displaying their masterpieces.


Here's my Mom and I showing what great work we did (for some reason every time I dye eggs I end up looking like a mongrel in the pics...who knows why)



Here's my sisters artistic egg decorators that they are. We ended up leaving our eggs out on the table all night and into the next day so we didn't get to eat them...who knows how that happened. Oh, well we had a great time anyway.

Side Pony St. Patty's Day!

Saint Patricks day is one of my favorite holidays. It's always so springy and nice, plus you get to dress up but you don't have to worry about. This year my sister Brianna and i decided to make a totally green meal. We made salad, garlic bread with green garlic butter, green lime aide, and noodle with pesto.


That night for FHE a bunch of us girls had Side-pony saint patty's day. Here I am with Myriah sporting our side pony's.

Here's a bunch of us girls ready for our saint patty's karaoke activity. We really know how to celebrate north county style.
