The wedding!!! Pretty funny story...

Wow. Where has time gone? It seems like 2 minutes ago I was babysitting my brothers the day of the wedding, and now it's practically been 2 weeks since the wedding!!!! It's CRAZY! So, the wedding went WAYYYY fast. Well, the reception, anyway. It was beyond crazy!!! I made the playlist for the reception (with my mad music skills haha) and it was AMAZING if I do say so myself. It was a mix of everything, country, oldies, newer music, (and some really pretty slow songs by David Archuleta, but don't tell my mom I put any of his music on there haha it can be our secret). Anyways so when we were halfway through "greeting" everybody in the reception line (which, I swear, went on for like a full hour. And I was wearing heels and I was STARVING!!! My cousin snuck me some pretzels when it became too much to handle) the playlist ran out of songs (and my mom didn't even notice the songs by David Archuleta! Ye-yeah!) and started playing other music on her iPod... Unfortunately, I had put David's whole album on her iPod and it started playing one by him called "Barriers" and my mom was like "Why is David Archuleta playing?!?!?!?!?!" And I just said "I don't know!!!!!!!!!!!!" It was so funny though!

Oh and then since I was the maid of honor, I had to give a stupid speech. So I hid in the bathroom trying to figure out what to say and they were looking for me EVERYWHERE! Abby says she thought I had snuck away and gone to the David Archuleta concert (which I would DEFINITELY prefer over giving a speech in front of over a hundred people!!!) But then I came out and they made me give it and I totally drew a blank and was like "uhhh... ummm..." for like 5 minutes before I finally got some sense.

And then there was the dancing. That was fun. First Caitlyn and I danced. And then my little cousin Emily and I danced too. Haha it was great. And then Tanner (my brother) was trying to teach me to do the quickstep (which he's learning in his ballroom dancing class at BYU) and it ended up to be him dragging me across the whole gym floor until he finally realized that I couldn't learn it in 2 minutes (which for some reason he expected from me. Not a good idea haha) So I just told him to go dance with his fiancee, Delcie, which I'm not sure he ever did. Crazy kid.

Then while my mom was on her honeymoon in Las Vegas (where she went to Phantom of the Opera, a Neil Diamond tribute, and a Beatles tribute! Totally jealous! Plus she saw "mini Paris", a very cool water show, and was offered to renew her wedding vows. As if. Haha) I stayed with Abby, which was way fun! We also went skiing... Ummm well long story short about that- it was my first time skiing because I snowboard and wanted to try skiing instead... Abby and her dad taught me the basics, I went down the bunny hill for a half day, then after lunch decided to go down the next biggest hill. It went pretty good until we reached a really steep part with really slick snow (steep parts are my weakness because I end up going way too fast and out of control) then I biffed it, my boots, which I had loosened, fell apart and I had little booties on and the outside were still in the skis which were flying down the mountain at rapid speed about to hit a man who dogded just in time. And I ended up sliding down on my butt for basically the rest of the mountain. Yeah. Not too fun. ANYWAYS.

Yeah so that's pretty much my spring break. Pretty exciting, as you can see. Haha it was really entertaining actually.

Anyways I think I'm going to go do something productive, maybe go on a run or practice the piano or something like that. (p.s. if you ever get a chance go somewhere on the internet and listen to bedtime story by jon schmidt. If I get my playlist to work it might be there so you could listen right here! I'm learning how to play it! I have the first 3 pages mastered. 5 more to go!)

Anyhoo bye bye! ~Sierra
