Iphone 3G



WOW! it has been one crazy week I don't think I've ever had to work so long in my life. It all started last Thursday (the day before the iPhone release) I had to work a 15 hour shift just to prepare for the phone. All of our visuals in the store had to be changed and everything had to be spic and span. people started lining up at about three that afternoon. The next day IPhone day was one of the craziest ever. I came into work and there were hundreds of people lined up around the gateway. INSANE is how I would have to describe that whole day. 15 hours of giving people water, sunscreen, shaved ice, answering phones and crazy questions and demoing the new phone . It was so hot and I was exhausted by the end of the day (7am-10pm) I went home and fell on my bed and didn't move until the next day when I returned to work and more lines. there has been a line every day since the release of the phone. It has been really fun and can I just tell you that I really coveted the phone that I was given to demo all day long. It is awesome. Anyway, Monday I played mini golf in the institute building which was funny because I am a horrible golfer anyway but putting me inside a building just made it ridiculous. On Wednesday I went to Lagoon/lagoona beach all day long and didn't get a sunburn yay! Yesterday was my roommates birthday and we decided to go float the Provo river. Noah was supposed to come but he called me an hour before from the hospital because he had dropped a piece of glass on his leg and had to get stitches. So we did a little floateroo down the river and it was beautiful and so much fun. but, stupid me I brought my phone along. huh, i wonder what happens to a phone when it gets filled with water. Let me tell you what happens... it dies. Completely! i thought it would be alright because I had it double wrapped in a zip lock bags but NOPE. It will never come back. which makes it even more hard not to covet the iPhone. if only i could get the iPhone on Verizon, but i can't so... Oh well. Madi and I are singing in church tomorrow yay fun. so that is my crazy week in a nut shell. I'll see all you concert goers this weekend. love ya.

Happy Birthday Dad!

Yummy cookies. Nasty bugs eating my mint. Grrrrr. Beautiful hikes in utah.
So the Blog nazi told me that i hadn't been doing the required amount of blogging. Who knew there was a quota? well now that I've been informed... here is a birthday blog for dad. (I've been told that all you want is to know what I'm up to for your birthday, which sounds like a cheesy parent's answer to what do you want for your birthday. "All I want is your love". Well you got it dude!) soooo here go. Sunday 15th: went to churh had a mix and mingle and then went to choir practice. Monday 16th: worked from 10-6 and then went to FHE. Tuesday17th: went swimming then straight to work 'til 9. Wednesday 18th: worked 9-4 then went to lagoon (claude lost it on the swinging ship and I haven't stopped laughing about it since). Thursday 19th: went swimming and then to work. Friday 20th: went swimming. cleaned my fridge inside and out. (it WAS amazing, now 3 days later it looks the same). Saturday 21th: for some reason I have no idea what I did saturday before I went to work until 10:30pm. then I came home and baked cookies until 3am. Sunday 22nd: HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD! went to church 'til 12 then I went to work 'til 6 (first sunday i've worked in my life and hopefully the last) went to choir and then to ward prayer. I basically was never home on sunday. Monday 23rd: came home from work and found the fridge the way it had been on THURSDAY and decided to move. SO right now I am looking at apartments. I can't take it any more. And that, sir, is a faithful narrative of my doings this week.
Love ya dad I'll see you on Monday the 30th.
So I have been doing some gardening and although I have some nasty little bug eating my herbs I am still getting some great produce. Isn't my pepper cute?

Check out my Slide Show!

Iphone

Short blog. The new Iphone comes out in a less than a month. It is going to be a CRAZY day at apple. people are planning on camping out the night before just to be first in line. This is more intense than Harry Potter. Who knew?








So Recently I have been camping almost every weekend. Either that or I go to lagoon which is a blast let me tell ya.
On saturday I went on a camping trip to Heber . We went canoeing. The week before We went to Diamond fork canyon which was so much fun. I think we need to go camping there as a family. There weren't a lot of people it was beautiful and there was an easy hike to the hot springs where you can soak for hours. it is so relaxing. There are natural hot waters coming out of the ground and a freezing cold waterfall that runs into the hot water so it comes to the perfect temp. to sit in.  Also this weekend was the Utah chalk art festival. There were some amazing pictures drawn I don't know how they can do such amazing art on such a difficult medium. Anyway that is really all I have been doing. Oh, and by the way, My pool finally opened. I'm sooo happy. And if anyone wants to come swimming just let me know. love ya and see you all in two weeks.
