senior trip day numbero uno (orem to Idaho falls to missoula montana)

The past month has been the absolute bestest month of my life thus far! I have no idea where to even begin!
Okay i really do know where: SENIOR TRIP!!
so this blog post is dedicated to the best trip i've been on! the first day of it. i'll do a post on everyday i think.
I never knew how much time it took to plan for a trip! There's the hotels, the activities, the food, the gas, the bus systems, the "how to use pepper spray" talk from grandpa, The "act like you're married when checking into a hotel" talk from mom, and every other piece of advice that EVERYONE was more than willing to share. The funny thing is that none of them were the same. Everyone had different advice for the most bizzare of situations that i'd never heard of and definitely did not happen on our trip.

But everytime i just nodded and said "What a good idea! I'll have to try that!" lol.

So the morning that we left was great. Betsy assured everyone that the trunk of her car would be plenty big. If i could give my advice to anyone traveling with 4 "light packer" teenaged girls it would be to get good at tetris. By the time our trip was over we had packing that trunk down to a very literal art!




The first day we headed to montana. we got to stop for lunch in idaho falls. we saw the beautiful temple (they're all beautiful though!) and the falls as well. i chased some ducks, took just a few (yeah right) pictures and then we were off to MONTANA! (land of the cowboy!)




on our car ride we all played the kissing test game on my itouch. :D it was really funny and i think i still have lip prints on it. But who cares! It was good practice for the future right?..... (just kidding dad, i'm never gonna do nasty stuff like kiss) :P


Montana is beautiful! sigh. I kinda might a little itty bit might want to live there one day! we got to missoula and we went to "cara's park" we rode a carousel and my horses name was Evansgone. i always get the horses with ugly names. (you will see)
It was fun.



then we went to the park next door and it was designed by kids apparently! Pretty sweet. I'm a fan of montana i tell you!


After that we checked into our hotel where i was supposed to be pretending i was married (and i was considering doing it that is until) the checker in guy in the lobby was seriously drop dead attractive! and i'm not just saying this! cause all four of us wanted to keep going back and asking questions so we could look at his face. And i talked to him for a while cause he kept telling me things we should do in seattle! and i listened. :D we wrote a compliment card for him in our hotel rooom. :D

yes, that does says hot guy at front desk. deserves a raise. :D don't worry, those aren't are real numbers. :D too bad though. And to think.... HE COULD HAVE BEEN A COWBOY! :(

then we walked around downtown missoula and i liked their fire hydrants. :D They were OHS colors.

then we ate dinner and filled up our trash can in record time. It looks like we could have gotten rid of half our trunk full of stuff with this trash can full of stuff. the sad thing was that the trunk was not any less full the next morning when checking out. O and hot stuff wasn't at the desk in the morning either. :(


funny quotes of the day:
"I'm a veteran of the kissing world!" Lauren (our kissing test thing)
"I want to grow grass on my roof!" Betsy
"We are so blessed" - Me (thank you lauren's dad!)
"No! they just added some chub!" -Lauren
"It hurts! put your hand out!" -Lauren
