So far... so good!

Our trip has been amazing so far! We have been trying to experience something new every day! Here is what we have been up to:
Day 1: After a long day of traveling, we got dinner from a vender outside of a strip club! Lol the food was actually good, and we didn't even get sick! :)
Day 2: We went to a flea market and got some pretty sweet things! It was really fun! Then, we went to Clearwater beach and soaked up the sun! At dinner that night we both tried escargot for the first time! Suprisingly, we both loved it!



Day 3: The cold front came through Tampa today, so it was only 80 degrees and windy ;) We went to lunch and tried frog legs! Also, suprisingly yummy! We did some shopping and dressed up nice for dinner! Dinner was beautiful and fabulous, with a gorgeous view of the bay!



Tomorrow we are excited to spend a day on the beach! More updates to come!

School's Out For The Summer....

Well... almost.... Today was my last day of classes! Woo Hoo! You have no idea how exciting that is! I have one math test, one drama lesson plan, and a 3 minute music test left and then I don't have to think about school for months!
What a wonderful ending to such a REDICULOUSLY CRAZY day!
The countdown for the vacation has been on for a few days now, but as soon as I go to sleep there will only be 11 days until we leave for Florida!
Yesterday we went to the park in our swimsuits and today it snowed... only in Utah...

Something fishy going on...

So I am super upset about the pitbulls :( As it turns out, pitbulls aren't allowed in Springville, so they wouldn't let us adopt them :( I wanted to cry my eyes out! Adam and I went and visited them, and I fell in love with them all over again! They are so sweet and they love me! So... since they wouldn't allow us to adopt them, they said that if we had friends, they would have priority in being able to adopt them. They went on adoption last Thursday morning at 9am (the dogs have to be there for 3 days before adoption is allowed, incase the owners come looking for them).
So I have this friend from work, and her and her husband have been looking for a pitbull mix at the shelters for a while, so she was super excited when she found out about the puppies. I gave her all the info and so her and her husband went to the shelter last Thursday at 10am to adopt one of the puppies. The people in the shelter told her they had no idea what she was talking about and that they didn't have any puppies like that. Hmmm... right?!
SO... I just found this out this morning and had Adam call the shelter. When he talked to them, they said that the owners came in looking for the puppies on SATURDAY and that they have 2 more days to come up with the money to get their puppies back... So maybe it's just me, but something doesn't add up right... Thursday they denied have the puppies, but on Saturday the owners came and claimed them.
Something is going on. Why would they lie about that? AND I am super upset that they are giving the owner the puppies, after they 'abused' the dog by leaving the rubber band on his tail so it would fall off. People like that shouldn't be allowed to have the puppies back!! Why wouldn't they let my friend see the puppies?!
So Adam and I think that maybe one of the workers wanted to keep them, so they were hiding them or something... What do you think?
PS Three school days left!! WOO WOO! I can't wait!

APRIL FOOLS!

Ok so this blog has nothing to do with April Fools :) I tried to trick Adam into thinking I was pregnant today, which lasted about 5 seconds till I gave in... that was my only sad attempt today.

ANYWAY! We have started planning our trip! YAY! So we have decided on Florida! I really need to be on a beach, and soon. We are flying into Tampa and going to be in FL from April 26-May 2! I am super excited! So far, all we have planned are the plane tickets and a rental car... the rest of the trip is all up in the air! We might drive down to Disney World and go to the Epcot center for a day or something, but we haven't decided yet. So any of you FL experts, let us know where we need to go!

The plan so far, is to spend some time in St. Petersburg. It is supposed to be very chill and relaxing with beautiful beaches: Sounds just like what the doctor ordered! :)


So I got in a car accident today... Let me start by telling you, NO I am not April Foolsing you, although you might think so at the end of the story. So... I had some homework to do on campus so I decided to take the 11:30 bus instead of the 12:37 bus. So I get on the bus and everything is just normal as usual (normal for public transportation I guess lol). I was on the phone and all of a sudden I go sliding across the seat of the bus until I run into the pole seperating me from the next section. I was so confused! I guess we had hit something (we were going 50 mph by the way), so the bus pulled over on to the side of the road. I was a little frazzled at this point and decided to find out what happened...

So on the side of the road there is a milk delivery van with a pink posterboard in the windshield that says "Free Chocolate Milk." Appearantally, two of the cars ahead of us saw the sign and decided that they NEEDED free chocolate milk and slammed on thier brakes, without using their blinker of course. The car behind them panicked and slammed on her brakes as well and then I guess a giant bus can't stop on a dime when going 50 mph and we rearended her.

SO, we were stuck on the bus for quite some time while the bus driver waited for her supervisor to come and take care of the situation. Needless to say, instead of being an hour early to school, I arrived right on time for my class, without doing all of the homework I needed to finish.

Can you believe it? LOL the things people will do for something free. And then, believe it or not, while we were sitting there waiting, the chocolate milk guy had the nerve to ask the bus driver to move the bus because we were blocking his free chocolate milk sign.


So this week has been a little nuts this far... By the way! Adam and I helped rescue two puppies walking in the middle of a busy street yesterday! They are beautiful! Legally, we had to take them to animal control for 3 days, but if no one claims them, we may get to adopt them! Cross your fingers! I need them!
