washington square park performers to the max.

das ist for thee, gracia.

this is from drum circle night at liberty park.

and for everyone else to enjoy.

and it's also a call to action.

i know megan is at efy.

and beth and jos are on missions.

but really d? you just got home from peru.

update. update. update.

oh and this one because it's funny.

Too short.

The amount of time that Brynne was here was too short just like this dress. (I just remembered when I wore this dress to Nate and Annelisa's reception and Megan told me I wouldn't be able to wear dresses like this after I started wearing temple attire.) Show you! I still can but I can't let them ride up awkwardly or sit awkwardly like I used to. At least I try harder not too. Wearing temple items is actually pretty nice. It's like you're wearing comfy pajamas under all your clothes (that sometimes make you really hot)

Anyways, I often dream of the days when we used to hang out all the time and drink slurpees and sit on the couch on the front porch and talk about guys and all the funny things that happened to us. That time at the YH was too short.  Life is too short. Sorry for the awkward picture of me and random post. 

Come to New York and I'll take you to see Barbie. And I promise to be more dedicated to this blog. Love you all! Dantzel be safe, and Beth and Jos be safe.

i'm going to see graaaace!!

and dream of weather that doesn't consist of rain.

but i'll get over it and still enjoy hanging with my best girf.

while having a nice time (as always) with this new best girf.

and wishing these two best girfs could come join all the fun and girl talk seshes?

wow. if only that abbreviation was close to being nice.

while trying to maintain friendships with these two cuties.

jelissa is going to costa rica.

and that's tanner.

okay byyyyye

the picture says it all.

my ladies.

i feel like its time for an update from this girl. 

so here it is. 

sometimes i like to have really bad luck with vehicles slash the law. i'm holding my second ticket in two weeks and big thunder decided to go crazy so my brother in law came and got us from provo the other day. who knew that you couldnt park too close to a sidewalk (that would be the reason for the ticket, not the tow haha)?? not me. 

but here is something on a more lucky note..well depending on how you look at it and how your feelings are towards especially for youth. i know we all thought i had put my efy-ness away for good back in 2008 (where this picture came from and i actually took from this blog) but God has a different plan and i'm going to be a BC for the summer. i didnt think i would do efy again and never ever wanted to be anything other than a counselor but it kind of just fell in my lap. i feel really good about it and i know it is what Heavenly Father wants me to do for the summer. i never intended to be an efy all star but it looks like it is out of my control. it will be kind of intense but if D can do it so can i! so if anyone wants to visit, i will be living at byu campus from the end of may till the begining of august, with a trip to seattle in between. 

other than that, nothing too new. oh! i mowed our lawn today. haven't done that in like 7 years. in the words of grace, "i just had a flashback of highschool!" also, even though i currently am not making money i felt it wise to buy a brand new imac and a canon rebel. it's fine. who needs savings these days right?

love you girls. so so much. 

Happy!

Probably I should be sleeping right now, but I hate the process of actually going to bed, so here I am instead. Today = greatest day I've had for a long time, and I'll tell you why I'm so happy.

Number one, my team is going to Nationals! We got the invitation to go today. I really wish you could have all been around when I got the text from my coach. Let's just say there was lots of jumping and screaming and just general excitement. We haven't been since my freshman year on the team, so it's a good year to be a cougar, and an even better year to be a senior. We won regionals last week, here's a pic of me lovin the trophy.

P.S...Jessie and I may or may not have taken the trophy out for a night on the town on Saturday night. I'd just like to throw out there that Dr. Pepper tastes absolutely fantastic out of a trophy.

Reason #2--I graduate on Thursday/Friday! Sort of anticlimactic since I've been done with school and tests since last Tuesday, but I've had a fantastic week of soaking up the sun at the pool and park, which makes me sooooo happy. This is a pic from Sam's graduation last year...and although I won't have a trampoline to help me celebrate, I'd like to think I'll be just as excited.


Reason #3--The Jazz pulled off a win tonight! Love me a little D-Will, but I think my vote for MVP for the night goes to Kyle Korver. Didn't have tons of points, but sure drilled the shots when we needed a little shove of momentum. Love him.

Reason #4--I have another nephew on the way! Tisha is pregnant, expecting August 31st and I can't wait to be aunt to a new little tyke! Love Ricky, Tisha, Emerson, and Finlay, and can't wait for the new addition.


Sun+Lacrosse+No School+New Nephew+Good Jazz game=One happy camper.

Entertainment

Moving glass cup. from Grace Poulsen on Vimeo.

Remember when we used to all live together and weird things happened? Like the time I left Megan's strainer on a burner and it melted, or when we found that puzzle that fell and stuck in the cupboard or when our poster got stolen off our door. (I can't even remember what poster that was. But i think it was a girl scout poster?)

The other night I was doing the dishes and I swear this glass was haunted. There is no slant! I know science can explain it but I was entertained. Sorry for the dumbest video ever
