when a little rapping goes awry...

Today in my communications class, the guy I sit next to was telling me about a news story he saw. A few teenage boys pulled up to a McDonald's drive-thru and rapped their order to the man at the window...well long story short, the boys ended up being cited for disorderly conduct and fined. They made up their own rendition of a McDonald's rap they saw on YouTube, so naturally I had to go check out this video! I thought it was actually really clever and decided I would share it with all of you!




It's a bummer those boys received a citation, but this video is pretty awesome regardless! I hope you enjoyed it!

a little taste of paradise

Recently over fall break, my family and I went on a little trip down to one of my all time favorite places...lake powell! My cousins Mark and Nicole Lyman also came with us and we all had such a great time! The weather was wonderful (a little colder than I would prefer, but still great), the water was awesome (also a little cold for my liking, but still fabulous), and the scenery was as beautiful as ever! Here are some pictures for you all to enjoy...



The beautiful rocks of powell


Wakeboarding


Tubing


Awesome biffs


Breathtaking sunsets


Great company, great food, great location, great time! Gotta love lake powell!

This has been my favorite one of the week...enjoy!

"Today, my mom set her facebook status as: 'going to see my oldest daughter, WTF' My other sister and I are debating whether or not to tell her that WTF doesn't mean With The Family. MLIA"

laughter is the best medicine

I would like to dedicate this post to my friend Caitlin who introduced me to www.mylifeisaverage.com ...this website is full of stories written by your average person, and the stories are hilarious. Caitlin told me about this website on monday so I decided to check it out...well I can now say that I have never spent so much time doing absolutely nothing but laughing my head off. I would like to share with you some of my favortie stories so far...
"A couple of days ago, my new step father (whom I haven't had the chance to get to know) was sent out to get groceries. What does he come back with? A Venus Fly Trap. We spent the rest of the afternoon hunting down flies while singing the Jaws theme song and feeding them to the Venus Fly Trap. I fully approve of my mother's decision to marry him. MLIA"
"Last night, I had a dream me and my dog got in a fight, and beat the heck out of each other. Today, I got a fortune cookie, with the fortune: 'Your strange dream will soon come true.' I've been hiding from my dog for the last couple hours. MLIA"
"Today, I bought a Roomba vacuum cleaner that vacuums while you're gone, because I wanted to save time. I spent an hour following it around the house, completely entertained. I feel this has been a great purchase. MLIA."
"The other day I realized I could change my cursor to a blue dinosaur that walks. Today I realized that moving it backwards makes it moonwalk. I've been entertaining myself for the past half hour by making it moonwalk to Michael Jackson. MLIA"
I hope you enjoyed them as much as I did! Thank you Caitlin for introducing me to greatness!
