There's No Place Like Home!

Like the title of this blog there really is no place like home! This past weekend I got to go back home to good ol' Spokane Washington and it was the best trip of my life!!! I got to spend it with my family, good friends and my favorite thing of all time during the fall...pumpkin donuts! It was a total blast!! Even though I got in really late Friday night, Saturday was well worth the wait. From the moment I woke up to the time I went to bed I was doing something. Here's what my family and I did in one day: I got my hair cut, went to Greenbluff, went to Footloose with my seester Sara and my bestest friend whom I've missed so much, Kelsie Barnes, ( the movie was really good by the way), ate a stake dinner that my dad made with funeral potato's (my favorite) and zucchini veggies that my mom made, did some math hw, and last but not least my favorite home teacher of all time and one of my best friends, Dustin came over to carve pumpkins. Kelsie and Zach were over too!! It was sooo fun I had a total blast and you really don't realize how much home means until you're gone for a while. Here's a little shout out to all my favorite Spokanites, I love you all and loved seeing all you're lovely faces and can't wait to see you in 2 weeks when I'll be back for Thanksgiving.

So this isn't pumpkin donuts, but it was lemon ala' mode which is just as good! :D

Momma, me and Sara were all tweeners!

She's my best friend!

Oh yeah I forgot to mention, Sara, my sister, is starting to DRIVE!!!

AHHHH!!!!!!! Here's a little sample of her driving skills.......

lets just say she's still learning!! haha

Forever sister, forever Friends!

This is my pumpkin Alfred...he didn't like me kissing him very much! haha

Zach and Dustin...it's a bromance...they will miss each other!

We're gonna miss Dustin!!!!!!! :(
