my trip

hey.

Thought i'd post a few pictures from the rest of my month long trip. I spent 3 weeks in Fort Worth, Texas and 1 week in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Best times! I had a wonderful time seeing family and friends, going to awesome places, meeting crazy..er amazing people, time off work, killer hot weather and just being in the lower 48!

The Perez girls and I went to a Texas Rangers game one Saturday. It was lots of fun! Even with all the seat hopping ;). There were SO many people there! Oh - and by the way...they were playing the Angels. And we won!


Here we are the the Texas Rangers game!

someone up to bat :)
AWESOME firework show after the game!!!!!!! Nothing like
baseball game firework shows!


Had the MOST awesome time at the DALLAS STARS GAME. My aunt, uncle and cousing went with me. We took the train to Dallas from Forth Worth. I've done it a few times before going to games and each time is definitely an adventure! Lots of awkward thing happen on those things. One example: looking like complete idiots looking for the bathroom! We kept going cart to cart looking and ended up where you drive the train!! Oh and if you're wondering..not a good idea to use the bathroom on trains unless its absolutely necessary. It is very easy to fall over :) fyi. Anyway - we had a great time at the game! And we beat Colorado!! I'm glad I got some hockey in while I was down there. Always fun to go to an NHL game! 


Me and my awesome cousin CASEY! she rocks

my totally cool aunt Debbie

even got a fight in!

uncle Scott (crazy guy) with Case and I

It was a good game! And got the whole Alaska quiz on the way home on the train from some random dude. What is it like in Alaska? Is it cold there? Do people like it there? Have you seen Sarah Palin? Is it always dark? blah blah blah. I couldn't tell you the times I got asked those questions. haha. Dear Americans: Alaska is US STATE TOO!!


My Grandma and Grandpa

Typical day...doing random stuff

I love my grandpa!

my awesome Texan friends!


Next stop. Arkansas.

I left DFW September 28th to spend a week in Arkansas before going home. I went to see my superamazingawesomecrazyfabulous friend HOLLAN! And of course her lovely kids, Bobbie and Chet. After walking 14 miles in the killer huge DFW airport I finally made it on the plane and ended up in Little Rock. Hollan was so kind to pick me up and we headed to Hot Springs to stay at her moms house. I have a new love for the Chittum family and Chinese chicken salad :) I spent Saturday - Wednesday with them. What a grand time we had! Met lots of WACKED out people i'm just kidding Hollan :) 

Our midnight run to Waffle house. Free entertainment too!

Bobbie not wanting a picture...

sniff sniff....first day at school. 

 On Wednesday my dear mom aka Hollan brought to College. What a big step that was for our future! Tear jerking more like it. kidding. As you may know, my brother went to Champion Baptist for 3 years. So everyone knew who I was before I got there. So much for starting my own reputation haha. It was tons of fun though! I stayed in a room with Becky, Tarah and Amber. They were awesome! Since the school is pretty small now, I got to meet everyone there. Got to go to some classes with them too. That was exciting! We did lots of things....some which cannot be put online :). So glad I got to hang out with everyone. Made some great new friends! And also got to put faces with names that i've always heard about.

Jesus, Jeff, Micah and I. Coolest people in HS 

Amber and I with our 'not allowed in the dorm pets' muhaha

All in all a very good trip. So glad it worked out that I could go! I miss them all even more now.

My trip home was 17 hours. Hot Springs > Little Rock > Dallas/Forth > Denver > Seattle > FAIRBANKS. 





just for Barrie. :)
