Stadium of Fire!!!!







There's not much to say about today other than it was awesome!!! first me and Taylor went in the morning to get manicures and pedicures at a near by nail place. I got french tip fingers and rhinestone toes. Then we dropped Taylor off at her house to start packing for EFY on Monday. Meanwhile Tutu took me to Walmart to pick up a few last things before EFY. Before we got Taylor, there were Beagle puppies being sold on the roadside..they were so cute! I wanted to take one. So then we went and got Taylor again and stopped at JCW's on the way home to get some shakes. I got a Cookie Dough and it was the best shake Ive ever had. SOOOO GGOOD!!!! SO we went home and watched a movie until it was time to go to Stadium of Fire. The traffic was crazy and it took us a while to get there. Tutu dropped me and Taylor off at a shopping Center close by and we went to Jamba Juice to get some dinner. Then we ate it in the park. When we were done, we walked over to the stadium and found our seats. Jansen was running late because he was with his family before. but he came a little while after the show started. Carrie Underwood was so awesome!! She is so good live, she opened with the national anthem. Before he actual performance they had several other performers like the Brown Five, Osmond 2nd Generation, some other band, and some group of violin players. They also had the largest court of honor of eagle scouts ever at the stadium. Over 280 of them. Carrie performed and then there was a huge firework show. More fireworks than i have ever seen in my entire life combined. It was nuts. They kept going off for like a half hour, then they had some patriotic songs sung and then more fireworks. One went wrong and hit a group of people int he crowd and exploded. Then it dispersed and a firework shot down a row of people sitting on the ground floor. The all stood up and started scrambling. A few people were on fire because we could see other people trying to beat the fire out of the hurt ones. It was intense, but the show went on. And then it finished. Jansen walked us through the campus back to the Creamery to get ice cream and meet up with Tutu and Granddad. That was our day! I had so much fun! Best first concert ever, but i wish it was longer.

LAGOON!!







Today was Lagoon Day. We woke up early and got read for Lagoon. Jansen stayed at the Kelly's that night so we wouldn't have to go all the way to Provo this morning to get him. So we drove to their house and picked him up. We had a full car with Taylor, me, Jansen, Tutu, and Grandad. When we finally got to Lagoon, we went to the Water Park part first since it was so hot. The three of us went on the lazy river, some tube rides, and body slides. It was really fun, but i got stuck in several of the body slides. The water was flowing enough and i stopped right in the middle of going down. It was scary and i had to push myself down half the ride. I think it was my shorts that might have stopped me or something because Jansen went down fine. But anyway. after the Water park we went on the rides. We hit Colossal, Wicked, Spider, Cliffhanger, Wild Mouse, Egg Roll, Rattlesnake Rapids, Rocket(one of my favorites), Samurai, and then at the end of the day, Jansen and i decided to split the money to ride Catapult and buy a cool video of us while we were on it. That was the best ride of all. I would have gone on it 20 more times if it did cost me. But then the dumb employee forgot to record ours so we could buy a video, though Grandad told me it was hilarious watching it on the screen. Oh well, but Jansen was bummed because he really wanted to put it on his blog. We were so wasted by the end of the day. Throughout the whole day we were craving water and drinks and we didn't pee once, that's how hot it was. But exhausted, we went tot he car and i passed out because i was so tired, until we got to Olive Garden. Man i love that place. We were all so starving that we ate everything we got. All the food was so good, everyone loved what they got. I got this garlic cream sauce pasta with herb crusted chicken and broccoli. It was so good and the chicken was so tender. Granddad kept trying to steal my chicken. But that was our day. It was so much fun.!! Tomorrow will be another awesome day... Carrie Underwood!! Cant wait!

Park City



So today was SHOPPING! Yes, its a scary word. WE woke up and left the house around 9 for park city. The drive was really long but extremely pretty. We got there around 10:15. Taylor and I went looking around together and Tutu did her own shopping. By 12:00 when we met up for lunch, i had only 2 things that i bought. So we had to stay longer, and longer, and longer, till i finally spent my clothes money. But i hadn't gone to bath and body works yet. I practically raided the store! They had the best sales ever and i was in heaven. If it weren't for the great deals i would have spent around $200 but it went down to $100 so I got it good. I even took a picture with one of the employees. My debit card officially has a hole in it now. On the way home we stopped at Granny's. I couldn't help but text Dad and brag. Its so much fun. I got the Snickers. SO we finally got back home and i crashed on the bed. Who knew shopping could be so tiring. So its late here but of course i cant sleep. Tomorrow is Lagoon with Jansen all day and I'm much excited. I'm having camera problems again, i sear they hate me. Anyway, till tomorrow. Love Kea.

OK. This morning me and Taylor woke up after she spent the night and the we went hiking with grandad and little boozer.....the dog. we went hiking up at the American for canyon at deer creek, right next to timp. cave. it was soooo pretty. i first decided that we should go on a day long hike.....but then i decided that i just wanted to go on a twenty minute hike so we went on a not to long one but not to short. And i guess i have really bad luck because i didn't get to see any moose...not even a squirrel or chipmunk and i still haven't seen a wild rabbit. So its a good thing the scenery was really pretty. But eventually we finally got to see something when Taylor almost stepped on a little green snake. Grandad said it was basking in the sun since it was sitting on a rock and not moving.Down below the snake, were the beaver dams in a big swampy area so i made grandad and Taylor come and see it with me to take some awesome pictures. Our shoes got kinda wet but it was so cool to take pictures on the dam. Then boozer got freaked out at something and was going crazy running back up the hill. So then we decided to head back. i was so freaked out...watch there was probably a bear in the bushes waiting to eat us! While on the trail i had to go through some bushes and there was this weird poky plant that stabbed me and it really hurt but it was weird because i started to get this weird rash on my arm (as you can see on the picture) but it finally went away after a little while. Taylor and i and boozer decided to run back down the trail which was super fun. We were all exhausted when we got to the car. We drove Taylor home because she had a voice lesson and i went home to take a nap and be a house bum for a little while. But then this crazy thing happened and Tutu called me outside to see something. Grandad had been working in the yard and found a huge green garter snake sitting on the steps. It was so cool. I cant see a stinking squirrel int he whole 5 days Ive been here and then i see 2 snakes in one day. I got some good pictures. Then Grandad got closer to him and scared him into the bushes. I will not be walking in the bushes anytime soon. So then i had dinner with tutu and grandad and then went downstairs to watch so you think you can dance with great grandma. Taylor finally came back and we watched a movie. so here we are now...still up......and hyper as can be. Tomorrow we are going to go shopping at park city which I'm really excited for. Until tomorrow......love your favorite person ever.
