A Tale of a Tricky Englishmen

I know it's crazy to have me post nearly two days in a row, but something really funny happened tonight, and I just had to write about it!
As most of you know, I am a card carrying member of the Virgin Lips Club: a club for those who have not yet been kissed. Well tonight that status changed. That's right-my VL club card has (sortof) been revoked, and all because I went to ward temple night and a sneaky British boy.
Here's the story: My ward has a dinner after our temple session, and a bunch of us just hang out and eat food (two of my favorite things to do). Well, as I was leaving tonight, a British boy who shall remain nameless grabbed my hand and told me "Have a sit down" by him. I did, and within a few minutes he had tricked me into holding his hand by having us compare tans. Pretty sneaky, right? Then he pointed at his cheek and asked me to give him a "Spot of a kiss". As I leaned in to kiss his cheek, he turned his head, and I ended up kissing him on the lips! Tricky Englishman! I haven't laughed so hard in a long time, and, of course, this all happened with a roomful of my fellow ward members. Classic!
So, I'm not sure if it really counts, but I have officially had my VL card revoked. Good times...

Signs

I finally decided to get a cute background for my blog. So:Ta-da! Here it is! If you want to take this as a sign that you will be seeing more posting from me in the future, so be it.

In recent news, I was set up on a blind date by my mother-thanks, Mom! His name is Jake, I think, and apparently Mom was a friend in high school to his mom. I haven't gone on the date yet, that'll be this Friday. I'll let you all know how that goes!

Also, I volunteered working a children's game booth at Draper Days last night, and then watched the fireworks afterwards. It was a lot of fun, and the kids were really cute, but getting out of there when it was time to go was a joke! I sat in my car for 30 minutes with the engine off because we weren't moving AT ALL. If it hadn't been for the fact that I have the internet on my cell phone, I think I would've gone nuts!

Back From Vacation

The last two weeks I spent in Wyoming with my family. It was great, and a lot of fun to see family members I haven't seen in two years. I caught a cold my first day, (who does that, in June, no less!), and spent the rest of vacation fighting it off :(
WEnt camping an fishing, but we got rained out of both. My favorite moments include winning at Dominos, camping with my family, watching baseball with my Grandpa Averett, and watching the new Transformers movie with siblings!
Next up: a road trip to Cali in August. Some friends and I are going to San Fransisco, LA, and San Diego. If anyone has suggestions about where we should stop, let me know!
