A Night To Remember



Big fun, on the nights of nights.  The nights of nights, tonight. Lets dance!  On the night of nights!  You know we're gonna do it right!  Its gonna be a night to remember!  Come on now, big fun!  Its gonna be the night to last forever, we'll never ever ever forget!  What night is this high school musical song talking about? Prom, thats rite PROM aka Senior Ball!  This years senior ball is goin down in the history books :)  Getting all dolled up for a night of wonders is the best!  This year I donned a yellow cinderella dress that had flowers made from sequins all over it.  I got compliments that I looked like a princess, like Belle.  I felt amazing, personally I've never gotten compliments like I did at senior ball and on facebook the next day!  Definantly a self confidence booster! 


My lovely date, Tyler, arrived at four and we took our pictures, of course we only had one normal smiling picture, the rest were charlie angels, thumbs up and we had some foot popping action to!  But thats just us, we arent normal we are craaaazy :) haha



After we took our pictures I went to my friends house to take pictures.  It wasnt what was planned because I was sopposed to go in the limo with a different group but because somehow things were mixed up and my date and I had to find another group and we did but their car was filled so my dad and brother decided to do something crazy.  They dressed up as chauffers and drove us to the dance. 





 When we got into the car there was sparkling cider and all these snacks!  It was such a suprise!  Then we got to the place in downtown Sac where the dance was being held.  We were one of the first ones there so we got our pictures out of the way and we sat down at our table but we got board so we stood up and started twirling, my dress is so pretty when I turn so we turned until more people started arriving.  And until this one person in particular couldnt take his eyes off of me.... haha :) score!  No biggie!  Then dinner was served.  Chicken, tri tip, cheesy potatoes, tortallini and cesear salad was on the menu.  It was reali good, my favorite was the chicken and salad!  After dinner was dessert which was a chocolate fondue fountain which was ok, the chocolate wasnt the best.  Oh well.  After dessert the dance offically started.  We danced to songs such as You and Me by Lifehouse, E.T by Katy Perry ft. Kanye West, Born This Way by Lady Gaga and our theme which was Best Days by Graham Colton.  My date and I had fun slow dancing because we werent just being boring but he was twirling me and all that kind of stuff it was super fun!!!  And then it was over.  The night that we have been waiting for was over and it was amazing!   And to top it all off my dad arrived dressed up as a chauffer and in the back seat was chocolate covered strawberries!  Sooo good!  This night is a night I will remember, the beggining of the end.  Senior Ball, Best Days, Class of 2011! <3

Senior Year

Its here.  Its Finally here.  The countdown to GRADUATION!  Yes its almost time to graduate and I couldn't be more excited!  20 days of school left, 29 days including weekends!  Amoungst my excitement, yesterday I was thinking about college, friends and my future life when I realized whats going to happen to my current life.  My friends now, here.  Over the past years I have made many friends from California to Florida and now that all of us are graduating I wonder where it will take us.  Yes I know that some friends are going to UCLA, Point Loma, BYU and Harvard but where will that lead?  Are none of us going to talk until our ten year reunion?  That scares me because I have grown so close with these people I can't stand to think that we wont talk for ten years.  We all will make new friends as we leave for college but these friends, now, got eachother through elementary school, middle school and high school and we wouldn't be the same with out them.  So I vow that I will keep in touch with them, no matter how many miles seperate us.
