YARG!!!

Ugh, so I'm really bad at posting. I never update my own, either. >_< I'm a terrible person.

So, um, yes! it was my birthday on Saturday the 26th of January, and yes, I'm a space and didn't write about it! Now I'm REALLY a terrible person... >.<

Okay, okay. It's now time for Saturday's events. Well, actually, I should let you know that my family picked up Cristal from American Fork on Friday night for simplicity's sake. Anyway, so on Saturday, once we got up to The Canyons, and the weather was PERFECT, literally perfect--little, to no wind; sun; comfortable temperatures. So as Cristal and I were riding up the Gondola, I talked to a guy from California (he was super cute, too. ^______^). Then we grabbed a table and hit the slopes. Cristal just needed a little improvement, so I helped that day with that. Then she ordered me to go do a run on my own while she rested, because she was getting kind of achy on her side. I decided to try the Terrain Park... Yeah, I really suck at it, but at least I try. >_<

When I went back to Cristal, we had lunch. She had brought a Cup of Noodles for me and herself, so we went to go fill them with hot water. Well, I looked at mine and I said, "Uuuh, this one looks like someone stabbed it with a fork. o_O" I just decided to try and eat it anyway--I could always grab a coffee cup and put it in there. Um... That didn't work. It ended up burning my hand. Oh, geez. We just ate hers and bought pizza, yum!

Anyway, we got back onto the slopes and then we started recording stuff. :) Yeah, I got some interesting stuff on film. Cristal falling, when I was talking about how I should have "accidently" caught the cute boy on film... Yup, that kind of stuff!

Again, she told me to go do a run alone. So as an obedient individual, I went! ^_^ I went down Silver Horse, and I met these HILARIOUS guys that were talking about how they were from Seattle (one of them had a Seahawks beanie, in which I replied "Go Seahawks!" He really didn't like them all that much, he just wanted to sport his city. :D), and then he kept cracking silly jokes like going down the mountains cutting down trees to keep from running into them (It's Machetti time!). Boy, it was great! Anyway, I went down and LOVED it, as always.

So I went back to Cristal and we snowboarded a little bit more before she ordered me to go on another run. So when I hopped on the ski lift, I went with this boyfriend and girlfriend couple. They were really cool. I was sitting next to the man so I mainly talked to him because the lady didn't say much (in fact, did she even say anything at all? I don't think so. o_O). But he was really neat! They were from California, and he asked me where I was from and if The Canyons was like my backyard, in which I replied, "Um, sort of... You could say that--I mean, I live in St. George, but it used to be when I still lived in Salt Lake." Then he asked me why I was up here and I said that I was up for Michele and Niall (I said cousin, just so you know.), and because it was my birthday. ^_^ He happily wished me a happy birthday! It was great. Anyway, I went down Silver Horse again and had a blast. Gosh, I love that run... ^______^ So since it connects to High Meadow, I was going down and I was like, "Oh, my gosh! What a coincidence, there's Cristal!" Yeah, I snowboarded next to her the rest of the run... It was rad.

Well, we needed to go, so I told her she could go on the Gondola and I would race her down to the bottom on my snowboard. And we were off! I get up the lift, I'm going down the run, I get through the steepest part and right after I went over some ice and fell. >.<>

We got back and got ready for the family party and then headed over there. Cristal and I walk into the kitchen and--as always--there was a mass of related bodies. O_O I introduced Cristal to everyone--not that she remembered most of their names, and they remembered hers... Meh--so we ate, and partied, and ate, and I got sung "happy birthday" to, talked in the "girl circle" in the front room... Yeah, it was great. Freakin' McKenna's such a hottie! All the boys will (and probably do already) chase after that girl. Looks like I'll have to take out the ol' baseball bat and fend off boys who get too close. *Sigh* I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles, eh?

All in all, it was a good day. ^_^
