all the single babies.

california was a blast. bfs, gfs, single ladies, eating out, new years eve, boys, lots of sleeping, suffering for a whole week with a messy room and cold foggy weather.
amanda and i didn't even fight the whole time! she is the best, and yes we are twins.

we went to chino hills to hang out with our favorite uncle, Brent! and his wife Bev, and her daughter and kids. It was so much fun! the weather was fabulous. we had a bbq (he talked me into eating chicken....), went swimming, played wii and laughed!

i also met up with one of my best girlfriends! stephanie! we met via melodramtic.com in 9th grade? maybe 10th. we started writing each other because she saw that i was LDS. we were then pen pals through melo, email, myspace, texting, facebook and now blogging! our friendship has progressed like the technologies have. she talked me through the ups and downs, the break ups, make ups, the cute things he'd do and the fights and drama of bryson and i. she saw me fall in love with chase and send him off, and shared every detail of all the boyfriends, break ups, and hook ups in between, before, and since. i met her boyfriend this weekend for the first time! he is so funny and so nice. they are too cute together. it was the highlight of my week!

i hung out with john keiter and friends, too. we had a bonfire in newport. it was fun to see people from home in another state, always a good time. john keiter is such the fun starter. i saw lauren and aubrey too, love them.

it was a good week in california! its so fun to go visit there, especially since now i have some friends there, too (okay..one) that i can hang out with when amanda is busy with a bf. (winky face)

when i left california, i flew to las vegas. i met a missionary who was from chicago, serving in new york, dating a girl from las vegas and going to school at BYU-I. we became 'friends' and when he got off his mission we kept in touch via texting. he got back together with the girl who waited two whole years for him, and they got engaged and married! so i went to his reception in LV with some other guys from the mission, it was so much fun to see them. las vegas wasnt too eventful because i was only there for less than 24 hours but i still had fun. and even got to see pam, lindsay, and marissa! they were kind enough to let me stay the night at their house!

this is the only picture i have from las vegas. i dont even remember where we were.

i got home sunday, tired, a little grumpy, and sick. thanks amanda. happy new year everyone ! :)
