Back to the adventures of poor college girls in REXBURG!

Once upon a time there were four roommates on Halloween weekend with not much to do on a Friday afternoon. So two of the girls decided to skip off to the gardens for one of the girls portrait photography project (yeah try saying that 10 times fast).

(Pretty pretty!)

After rolling through the leaves, making leaf angels

and making it rain leaves,

the girls skipped off down the hill (well actually they ran...) back to their warm apartment in excitement for a dear sister of one of the girls to come visit!

Katherine Wiscombe came up for the weekend to see her dear sweet sister, Cacia. So the four girls (Cacia, Alisa, Katherine and I (the others were gone for the night/weekend))were planning on going to "Nightmare Before Curfew" but they had a problem... they had.........no ride. (Insert creepy music "dun Dun DUUUUUN!")

But in the midst of their sadness at not being able to dance as wild animals, their tummies began to grumble, like hungry lionesses...the call of Little Caesar's pizza haunted them...and they gave in to the crazy bread and root beer craving.

The hungry girls devoured their lovely pepperoni pizza, crazy bread and root beer. But they knew one thing was missing.....

DESSERT!

And that satisfaction could only come from Sammy's pie shakes.

(For all you East Coasters and unfortunate people who have never heard of Sammy's. Sammy's is a restaurant that started down in Provo. They are famous for the 50's style eatery, loop around counter that you can sit at, or if you want some entertainment, you can sit in the next room and listen to the live band that is playing. They also have THE most AMAZING pie shakes and cupcake shakes EVER!!!!!! They literally use slices of pie or a cupcake in your shake.)

The girls entered into the crowd that filled Sammy's and made their way to the line to order the most heavenly pie shakes ever.

(This is the pumpkin cheesecake pie shake)

While enjoying their amazing shakes, in came four of the scariest sights you could possibly imagine......guys dressed up as Kiss! After taking in this bewildering image, the girls decided it was time to retire to their warm home. After getting home, the girls settled down to enjoy a goofy chick flick and headed off to bed, tummies satisfied and humor compensated until.....Saturday!

Waking up Saturday the 5 girls (Rachel returned) decided it was time for an adventure to

THE ICE CAVES

however

they had poor directions

and ended up in the middle of nowhere
"We're lost!"

but they found a magical door, which they then tried to open

only to find...

some cacti and a dead bird!

They left quickly, but not before exploring the abandoned grounds

(I just love this picture of Rachel and felt I needed to share it =D)

Feeling discouraged, they decided to go down the crazy, bumpy, muddy road to the Civil Court Caves

And headed deep down inside to see what they could find
(Believe it or not, a few weeks back there was a party in this cave called Cave Jam. This WHOLE thing was packed full of people! I didn't go but some of my roommates did, crazy people!)


After getting some better directions they headed for the ice caves!

But it began to rain and the road to the caves is long and VERY VERY VERY bumpy so they decided to go to the sand dunes instead.

However, not realizing how deep the sand was, while trying to park, they got stuck. They tried using branches to dig out the wheels and pushing but nothing worked. Finally they had to rely on the kind hospitality of two nice young men to pull the truck out of the sand.

After a long day they went back home to the quiet boredom of their apartment.

While lounging around some girls invited them to a party at Delta Fi or something like that...the girls lived on the floor above them and you could hear the music from across the street. However, the girls were quite worn out from their adventures and declined saying they might go out later.

But instead they decided to make homemade pizookie (pizza cookie)

Not wanting to share, some of them refused to call a few of the guys to help them eat it, though some of them knew they would not finish this massive cookie. But they ate most of it and it was the best pizookie they had ever made!

Feeling quite satisfied they sat down for a game of


MARIO PARTY 2!!!! on N64!

And they all failed due to not reading the instructions to the games, but had a great time laughing their heads off at their pathetic attempts to win.

Katherine kicked everyone's butt though she had never played before.

In the end the girls had a wonderful time laughing their heads off, whether in the car, going down ridiculous dirt roads, getting stuck in the sand or failing at the easiest games. It only goes to show, it is the simple things in life that make life worth it.

The End. (Until next time)
