The time has come once again to bid summer a farewell. This summer was full of up's and down's and never ending surprises, and all I gotta say is: DAMN! haha. New friends, tattoos, engagements, trips, parties and never ending memories were all included in this past summer of 2008. Getting back into the swing of things with school and all was crazy, and it seemed that I hardly even said goodbye to summer! But this past Labor Day weekend gave me one last chance to do so, and I couldn't be happier.
Nina, Roxanne and the whole [mostly filipino] crew rounded up a huge group of people to rent a sweet house on Bear Lake for 4 days and 3 nights. The house was amazing--Fully furnished 4 stories, tons of beds and pull out sofas to fit everyone! And the girls bathroom tub/shower was to die for! There were two huge pub tables and plenty of room for lounging and partying. A huggeee TV in the downstairs living room, and even a room with game tables including a ping pong (or should I say beer pong) table! =) We were in heaven!
This group is one of my favorites to party with, and they are some of the coolest people I've met here in Utah. This was also a way of everyone in our little 'family' to get together because A.R is leaving in October to join the Armed Forces for 6 years! We are super proud of him! Aeiko and Rox were the organizers that made everything come together, and Ninas mom was of course in charge of the food arrangements. She is the bomb when it comes to that! We had SO much food for the entire weekend, and after we unloaded everything--the boys stopped questioning if we would have enough for everyone! I think there was a final count of 21 people if I'm not mistaken. There might have been a few more after Mark and PJ drove up on Saturday night. Oh, and did I mention that this group knows how to party like no one's business?! LOL. Well, we ended up with a few coolers packed with beer, and 20...yes TWENTY bottles of hard alky! ;) OOHHH YEAH! We had endless drink recipes and threw a couple random ones together. We raged the whole weekend, non-stop. We cooked out, rented jet ski's 2 days in a row, ate yummy shakes, and played crazy games...drinking ones and not. 'Thumper' was introduced to the group by me and Nina and everyone loved it. PJ was wasted by the time we were done because he couldn't remember anyones sign. A hilarious game of drunken Charades was the best, though. Frank is the funniest guy ever, and we have videos to prove it. As soon as I upload the pics and vids, they WILL be posted!
I'm so glad that I had the chance to end summer the right way with some of my favorite people!
