Kella is MARRIED!

So i don't know what the deal is with all my friends getting married but they are. . .On April eleventh, one of my best friends and old roommates got married to her high school sweetheart. This was the first time I got to see her in almost two years because she served a 18 month mission and just got back in November. All of us old roommates and friends got together for a little bachlorette party dinner the night before. It was a blask looking back and remembering our crazy life of almosting getting caught by the police "borrowing" street signs, and sunday lunches/ naps, and all our other random (usually late night) activities!

One of my BEST friends, Camilla, had her 23rd birthday on the 14th so I decided to throw her an"Ocean Adventure" themed surprise birthday party. (I know you'd think it was for a 3 year old, but we're young at heart). It was so much fun to plan, turned out great, and she had no idea! Just the "usual" small group of friends got together we went out to dinner and then played games. I made her a jello cake with Shamu on it and Flounder and Sabastian shaped rice crispies. We decorated with blue streamers and glittery fish so it would feel like we were UNDER THE SEA!

GNO (Girls Night Out). . .

Last weekend my friend Brittany was in town so the three of us went out on the town. HA! Which really means we had dinner, got ice cream, and then went to a movie. It was so fun to have a night with my girls!

Everything I need to know I learned in PRESCHOOL...







So this morning I got a call at 8:00 from my sister, which typically she knows better than to call me that early, but after the second call in a row I answered. Today was my niece Brooklyn's turn to be leader at her preschool and with that responsibility she also gets to bring snacks and someone to be the "special" helper for the day. Brooklyn didn't want to bring her mom or dad or even grandma, she wanted her aunt Teph. What an honor huh? While I was there I watched the things they learned and played I thought about some of the life lessons and also some not-so-life lessons we learn right away in preschool.

• Wash your hands before you eat and after you play outside
• Thumbs up... (when cutting with scissors)
• We hear with our ears, see with our eyes, feel with our fingers, taste with our tounge, and smell with our nose.
• Take turns
• When in a bad mood...have a snack. (It does wonders)
• Boys have cooties
• We can be whatever we want to be when we grow up.
• Fold your arms, bow your head, and say your prayers (in there case before you eat)

Will you be my VALENTINE??
