Bronte's Visit

Bronte came to visit for four days this last week.  It was awesome to see her and I think she had a good time.  I took her to my Anthropology class on Friday and she went to a couple of Marci's.  She was really excited for Graham's art class but it turned out to be cancelled.  Friday night we went to the BYU basketball season opener. Later that night Marissa, Marci, Bronte and I went with Nick and his roommates up to Rock Canyon for a bonfire.  It was really fun but we left a bit early because we were hungry. Of course, the only place open at 2:00 a.m. is Denny's.  We ordered some hot chocolate in some sweet kid's cups. And when we were about half way through eating, Nick and his friends showed up too.
Saturday morning Bronte decided to sleep in while I went with Marissa to Nick's flag football game, which they won. I went home after, took a shower and headed to Nick and Marissa's basketball game.  Bronte was still getting ready by the time we left for the basketball game.  Bronte and I then headed to University Mall to help Bronte find a prom dress. The first store we went into she found the dress. Forest green looks awesome on her and the dress was super cute.  We grabbed some Orange Julius to hold us off before going to Doc's Pizza Buffet  with Nick and his basketball team.  Bronte, Marissa and I were absolutely dead tired after and headed to my apartment to take a three hour nap (Marissa already took a nap and joined us in this three hour one.)  We hung out until heading to Fat Cats for some bowling.  Bronte and Marissa both bowled their best games. Bronte: 156 and Marissa: 208. I probably bowled my worst. ha Marissa kept getting compliments and guys asking if she was on bowling leagues or how she is so good. There was a couple bowling in the lane next to us. We thought he looked like a BYU basketball player so I told Marissa I would massage her back if she asked. Of course she did, and yes, he turned out to be number one on the team.  After bowling, we headed to the Malt Shoppe.  The lights were still on and the sign said they didn't close until 2, we had fifteen minutes so we thought we were good. We started reading the menu and got really excited to have some milkshakes and such.  The stupid worker came over to us and told us they were closed... We weren't too happy but decided to go to Wendy's instead.  Marci came over when we got home and we hung out until almost four. We drove Bronte to Salt Lake to catch  her plane, leaving at seven.  Marissa and I got home and slept until almost 1:30.

It was sweet to see Bronte and get to spend time with her. I just hope she got out what she wanted from the trip. I miss her already!!

For Lindsea... AND BRONTE IS HERE!

Lindsea, these are the shoes that Sydney wore of mine for Halloween.  (Marissa and I went to Wet Seal one day and they were having a sale, Buy one and get one for a penny.  I got purple heels like these for $10 and the yellows for a penny. I haven't worn these ones yet but I have worn the purples...) I didn't know how to show you how big the heel was but to compare them to my deodorant.
Ok,so yesterday KC did a huge favor for me... One of my friends from home, Bronte Toolson, came down to visit.  KC picked her up from the air port for me.  I kept reminding him what time and what airline she was on.  When time came that she landed I called to make sure KC was there.  She text me a bit later and was kind of lost. KC then text me and asked what her flight number was and everything.  Bronte and KC were not communicating very well at this point. I was trying to bowl in my bowling class (which I got my first Turkey EVER yesterday) and help them find each other. I told Bronte he drives a silver Camry. She said she will let me know if she can find him.  She calls me a bit later saying that he just passed her... I called him back and told him. He said that he drove by three times not seeing her.  I told him that she is standing right where she told him. He then asked, "Whitni, what does Bronte look like?" When I told him that she was a cute little brunette he finally found her...
After they finally made it to my apartment I fed them lunch then Marci, Graham and Selene came over to hang out. Graham kept promising me he would come visit but never did. As soon as Bronte flies down he is the first one over here.
Now we are just trying to find fun stuff for her to do while down here.  Hopefully her trip will be worth it!!

Halloween Weekend


For my stake Halloween party, my roommates, a girl from across the hall and I dressed up as M&M's. Here are our costumes. My roommate Sydney make the M's with felt and we pinned them to our clothes. What you can't see in these pictures are my shoes that Anna and Sydney are wearing. Sydney about broke her ankle trying to walk in my massive yellow heels, she has a gash in her leg to prove it too. 

This is my Washington friend, Anna. She is from Tacoma and is a fellow princess of mine! She was a Daffodil girl. :) It's fun to exchange stories with her.

I got a chance to hang out with the THREE AMIGOS!!!! Who all lated added me on facebook.  I also got my picture with this super tall guy.  The top of my head didn't reach his arm pit. I know that isn't saying much with me, but you know, he was still tall.

On Halloween night, my costume kind of went in the opposite direction from the night before.  I attempted to be a biker chick but it didn't work out one bit.  Marissa was a cute wind up doll.  We got ready at our grandparent's house then went to hang out at Mary Vanderholm's for a bit.  After Mary's we helped Nick and his roommate get more free Black Jack Tacos from Taco Bell.
