Montana Trip!!!!!!!!!!
Sooo im back from Montana!!!! Well, ive been back for a while but i just now have the time to blog about it. So we flew from Harrisburg, to Chicago, to Missoula Montana where my Aunt Bridgette, Uncle Mark, and cousins Gabriel and Michael live. It is gorgeous up in the mountains! OMG i was in awe! Everywhere around me where the Rockys, we were in a valley in the Rockys. It was beautiful! And once my camera decides to allow me to put my pics on i will put some up to show you the mountains.
Anywho what i did there. Well the first day we unpacked, visited, toured the city a bit, then went on a walk about 2 miles from their house to a river that runs through the city, one of 3 i believe. It was beautifully clear mountain water! Yes, it was cold because of glacier run off but it was really wonderful once you got in. Only problem about the mountains near water, mosquitoes... giant fuckers they were. Omg they ate you up like there was no tomorrow. My brother got over 20 bites in under 10 minutes. The first day was rather hectic and everyone was trying to get used to the new time zone, Missoula is 2 hours behind Pennsylvania.
Our second day there we traveled. There was a carnival like thing going on that was really cool, there were so many different food stands along with a live band. There was also entertainment, there was an elderly couple there who were doing this really freaky interpritive dance thing. Like, it was freaky weird but so much funn to watch. XD We then rode the Carousel for Missoula and watched a man try to swim over the rapids of a river on the other side of the carnival. After all that we walked over the bridge and began to walk around and shop. I didn't get anything that day and we just kind of explored, we went to one store that i have fallen in love with. It's called Rockin Rudy's and it is Missoula's Spencers. Its so amazing!!! hahaha
After all that, we went to Chico Hot Springs which is a little resort 30 miles North of Yellowstone and we stayed there one night. I got to chill in natural spring water that was 107 degrees!!! It was soooooooooo amazing. :D We also went to a super fancy restaurant for my grandparents 50th and my aunt and uncle, and my parents 20th anniversary's. It was yummers, i had duck and for dessert i had a killer chocolate cake piece!!! But there was a sad thing that happened, i accidently deleted all the pics i had taken before Chico. And i had some really good pictures too!!! :'(
Anywho, then there was Yellowstone!!!! it was a long ass drive but it was amazing!!! We saw a crapton of Bison, 2 black bears, a grizzly bear with her cub, some elk, and a few deer. We stayed at the Old Faithful Inn and saw Old Faithful go off, we saw a lot of hot springs and mud pots, I saw the Yellowstone Canyon and the huge waterfall there, and the scenery was incredibly beautiful.
All in all our trip was fantastic!!! There's still a lot we did but it's little things that made it memorable. So now i am back and getting ready for my senior year in high school. I need to get my senior pics done and i have back to school shopping to do. So yeah, that's all i got right now. Tata for now!

SENIOR DAY and beginning of my lasts.
SO this week i had my final Band Camp ever, it was a hot humid week but i got through it well. Now to begin with my posts, every Friday is Senior Prank Day when the seniors get to deface school property to the theme of the show (The Incredibles this year) so Thursday night me and the seniors of 2012 stayed over and started working on our prank! Here are pics!!!
I did the windows, I am damn proud of my Incredible "I's" if i do say so myself. I also went window paint crazy and drew over every available window in the Band Hall. hahaha
The Band Hall itself!!! This is our Superhero obstacle course, the red were lasers and the black and yellow were toxic waste, you had to go through the hoops, through the tires, and under the net to become Incredible.
Our prank on our band directors office. We covered EVERYTHING in tin foil, put the drum majors stand in the middle of the room, and filled it with over 900 balloons!!
The Omnotron from the movie. It's a very saggy looking omnotron but it still was cool!!!
The seniors spray paint their names on the middle school hill every year. I was SOOOOOO happy to finally see my name on that field!! <3
We put the Incredibles symbol in the middle of the field and drew fake hash marks EVERYWHERE!!! lol
So that was my last band camp ever, like i said in my title this has begun the beginning of my lasts in high school. Soon it will be my last football game, my last homecoming, my last cavalcade, my last musical, my last madrigal, my last prom... It's gonna be a fun yet sad year. This is gonna be the end of a chapter of my life.
So i hope you enjoyed the pictures! FYI it was sooo much funn to deface school property!!! XD

A day with the boyfriend.
So yesterday was prolly one of the best days with Ben i have had in a while. 2 days ago we decided that on his and my day off we wanted to go to Knoebels for the day! I was gonna pack a lunch and drive, and we would just hang out there all day.
So yesterday i woke up around 7, started packing the food in my coolers and texted Ben to wake him up so he could get ready when i pick him up. I wanted to leave early to get a good parking space and to avoid traffic. Anyways, i got all ready and went over to Ben's and his laundry still wasn't done so that annoyed me a bit. So while waiting on the laundry we ate breakfast, then he got ready and we left around 8:40ish. We were gonna use my moms GPS to get there, but we messed it up going to Hess and getting gas, then Exon to go to an ATM. Then we missed our turn onto 81 and had to turn around and go back.
We finally got there around 9:50, an hour before the park actually opens. So we just walked around and talked, it was nice with the cool morning air and not very loud. We then went back to my car and got my coolers. I only forgot one thing... I didn't bring utensils. So i was walking around asking people if they had plastic forks and knives. I finally got some spoons and a knife but it worked.
After we ate we got tickets and road the sky ride for my first time, it was a nice ride with a nice view of the park. Then during the heat of the day we walked around int he stores and arcade. AND I WON SOMETHING IN THE ARCADE!!! I NEVER win anything in arcades!!
I won a Angry Birds pig and red bird! I wanted to get the yellow bird too but i didn't wanna spend too much money. I'M SO PROUD OF MYSELF!!!
We walked around some more, ate deep fried seafood, then decided to leave cause we were both getting super tired. Ben slept on the way back and i was trying my hardest to stay awake.
We went back to Ben's house and i took his computer and we started to watch Men In Black and i went comment crazy on Erin's blog. After all that Sue (Ben's mommy) made us tuna sandwiches and then i left to go home. We never got to do our firefly catching contest. :(
But it was a great day. :)

Babysitting!!!!
So i babysat my boyfriends nephew this morning, i got up at 6:30 to be there by 7 so he had someone he knew to wake up to. Second i got there i put in my tape of Batman episodes and watched those until Brendan woke up. We made 2 eggs and he ate all of them! It was great! Then we sat down and watched some Batman, he really started to like it too. Then we woke up Ben and kept watching Batman while he showered. After Ben was done we went outside for about a half hour and played Basketball and watched the land lord work on the "tractor" (it was a back hoe)
Then when we got back into the house we put in the Batman movie and ate chicken strips, again Brendan ate amazing! He had 3 and a half full chicken strips and a box of juice. And by the time the movie was starting Max got home and i had a hour relaxing time. And that whole time Ben was sleeping on my lap. Then I went though poker lessons with max and ben, they aren't very good teachers. haha I'm slowly but surely learning.
So that is about it. Right now i am just chilling at home. So i hope your day is going well. :)
