homecoming.

homecoming was last night!!
i am a senior and had never been to homecoming before. but neither had my date. kaden. he's a sophomore. =)

we went on a double-day-date (with megan and dalan) and it was really fun. i really liked how laid back it was...we canoed across this little lake up in the canyon and went on a little hike/climb to this crappy little beach. we just joked around and hung out and had an awesome time. then we drove to this really cool park (us locals call it 3-story park. i have no idea what it's really called.) and had a picnic. then we had a "race" and rolled down this giant hill. the view from that park is amazing...you can see the whole valley. we were all sort of worn out from hiking and racing and what not, so we just sort of sat on the side of the hill, cuddled, and enjoyed the view and the amazing weather. it was sunny, breezy and beautiful.

after the day-date, the boys dropped us off and we got ready. i wore a little black dress and put my hair up. (it's not how i was originally gonna do my hair. i did not like how my hair turned out but i didn't have enough time to do what i wanted with it. sometimes having really thick hair is inconvenient.) kaden looked awesome in all black and a fuschia tie, and i painted my nails fuschia to match. =) when he picked me up, he brought me a daisy, and i, being the girl that i am, LOVED it. so cute, thoughtful and impressive. =)

next up: dinner. we ate dinner with 3 other couples at our friend, jake's, barn. earlier that week, the boys had set up the table and lights and it looked really cool. the parents cooked dinner and it was so good! i feel that i should admit that i had two desserts... =)

the dance was super cool. it was held in our high school gym and....wow. the gym was alomst unrecognizable. there was a red carpet, lanterns, lights, bistro tables on a cute little patio/garden, and there was even a fountain in the middle of the gym! the only thing that could have been improved was the music. it was WAY too quiet. if i can hear myself talking to the guy dancing across from me, the music isn't loud enough. =)

unfortunately, megan's date, dalan, was feeling sort of sick so we left a little earlier than we were originally going to. actually, we were originally all going to go back to jake's and watch a movie, but none of us really felt like hanging out with a ton of people and watching a dumb movie (i am number four. it's stupid. don't see it.) so dalan and kaden took us back to megan's house, where us girls ditched our dresses and fancy shoes and put on sweatpants and slippers. then we went back to dalan and kaden's where they changed into something more comfy as well. we finished out the night cuddling and watching the BYU/Utah game. (utah won.)

i got home at midnight (curfew) and went right to bed (right after my flower got some water and i had a quick snack. how was i hungry after two desserts?).

=) thanks kaden.
