girls mexico trip

I went to Mexico last month just before school started with my girlfriends (7 of us!) plus my Mom and like 4 of her friends. We had so much fun and got some nice tans! We stayed in a penthouse and it was such an experience living with that many girls for a few days...all sharing 4 bedrooms!

bridal show

I just went to this Bridal Fashion Debut show with my bestest friends since we were little girls (and bridesmaids) and it was so much fun! Yah we were bombarded by people trying to sell their services like photography, vacations, etc but we got all kinds of free stuff! Almost every booth had a drawing contest. And I actually won a FREE $2400 worth photography package! Im so excited (especially my parents) because that can be so freakin expensive! Here are just a few pics from the day...

Birthday Weekend- Im 21 woo!

It probably seems like all we do is go on vacations, but really thats the only interesting thing I have to post so it just seems that way! :-) We've actually been quite the nerds doing lots of school and trying to finish the semester. Only 2 more weeks!! For my b-day last weekend Brandon, Derek, Nicole and I drove to San Diego for some fun. It was a nice little break from our crazy life. We still have a day pass to use at Sea World so we did that again.. and we went to La Jolla again (i still love it!!), went to the beach, and Coronado Island (except we got there too late at night when everthing was closed, darn!).

Here's some pics of the trip..
