A Slow Leak

Two weekends ago I was fortunate enough to have my sister, McKenna and my mommy come up and see me perform in Extravadance! It was so much fun to have them here and to see all the hard work Dance Alliance had done to create our wonderfully, fantastic show! We had such a blast together, even though my mom was only here until Sunday, we managed to make it an eventful weekend together! There really isn't a whole lot to do in Rexburg, especially in the winter, but we did find plenty of things to laugh at and have fun with.  My mom came up with the idea to go try on my wedding dress (it's still so weird that I'm getting married! A good weird, don't worry) because McKenna had never seen it in person! It was so much fun to finally see my dress and to see how beautiful it looked on (don't mind me while I brag a little) I would post a picture of it, but I don't want to ruin the surprise quite yet :) We then bought way too many Girl Scout Cookies (Thin Mints holla!)  and my mom's favorite, Robin Eggs- they are truly to die for! Go buy them along with some peeps and thank me later.

Since college life is anything but lavish, McKenna and I decided it'd be best to have her sleep on an air mattress and not crammed in my cozy twin bed.  We tried that one summer she came to visit me and trust me, it was not a pretty sight.  Joe had an air mattress and agreed to let her borrow it.  My mommy bought her an electric blanket and sheets and we set up the mattress, which fit perfectly in my little room! (we won't go into the details on how big of a disaster it was for me to set up, I'd like to keep my dignity in tack, thank you) Low and behold, it had a hidden leak in it! We don't know when it happened, probably shortly after she fell asleep, but the air mattress slowly deflated until poor McKenna was sleeping on the ground. We tried everything to keep that dang mattress inflated; I would wake up periodically throughout the night to pump it up, in hopes of somehow keeping her off the floor, but no matter what she always woke up on the ground with bubbles of air mattress surrounding her.  She was such a trooper and didn't complain at all, I really don't know how we're related! :) I guess anything is better than sharing a bed with me! 
This is love

Rockin' her hat

Disaster much?

They will both disagree, but I DID help with dinner!
