to start off my wonderful weekend, my family went to the BYU Ballroom Company show in Oxnard. it was pretty fantastic. i loved the costumes and the dancing, of course. and we found such a cute place in Oxnard on the way. it looks like Utah! it was so pretty and magical looking. I'm definitely going there again, especially to take pictures.
Saturday morning, me and Kayla drove 3 hours down to San Diego. no traffic. it was nice. we met up with everyone at their stake center. i walked into the cultural hall with perfect timing. the whistle in Ash and Katrina's basketball game had just been blown to call a timeout. they both ran over to me and gave me a nice hug, since they were sweaty and all, trying not to cover me in it. haha. after their game we gathered the troops and went to El Pollo Loco. their dad paid. he is the nicest man i think I've ever met. i love both of their parents. after, we went to their house to get ready for the game. after Katrina lost a ticket, and jeanique found it under our car, we were off to meet up with their dad again. once with him and on the freeway, we realized we didn't have the tickets. jeanique left them in Ashlee's car. we went back then were off once again to Qualcomm Stadium. we got a sweet parking spot and started walking up to the stadium. but we left the tickets in the car. so we went back (again). once inside the stadium, we ran around basically the whole thing, looking for where we were allowed to sit. we missed the whole pregame show. bleh. the game was fun, but felt more like a baseball game because the stadium wasn't packed, and, well, it was a pretty boring game. BYU won 38-28. Ashlee was mad that Katrina was cheering for both teams. haha. after the game, we went back to Ashlee's car and went to pick up Robert. squishing 4 people into the back seat all the way to downtown. we had a dance partayyy and drank Monsters. my favorite :) Robert bought mine and Kayla's ticket for the haunted hotel (arghhh), then we had to wait in line for only about three hours. no biggie. oh my hells, it was horrible. then we FINALLY went through. i was gripping onto Katrina so hard that my left arm hurt so badly afterward. it was pretty freaking scary. i basically just looked down at my feet the whole time though, not willing to look around and enjoy the scenery. we drove straight home after, all of us so exhausted and tired. Sunday, we ate waffles and went to church. their ward is ridiculously small and old. i don't know what they would think if they came to my ward! Robert's two little sisters were there. they are adorable. and he is SO good with them. it made me so happy, but also sad for some reason.... After sacrament, we had to say our goodbyes. i don't know why Kayla wanted to leave then, but whatever. we totally could have stayed much longer. i absolutely hate saying goodbye. but I'm hoping they can come up for winter concert.
i love these people with all my heart and i'm so thankful i have them in my life!!!!
