French Twist & Nickel City :)

I attempted a french twist in my hair that morning and it failed me by about 1 that afternoon. What I did was twist my hair stick it against my head and put about 1 zillion bobby pins in it. My friend Rachael is a hair stylist I asked her to pin some loose pieces that I couldn't get to stay, she looked at it and then said "you need some serious help ha ha" so she taught me how to do a french twist the RIGHT way. I am forever grateful now it wont look like an attempt it will look like a real french twist! I had her take pictures of each step so that I could see what she was doing. These pictures are of what she did. What I did will never be seen again ha ha.


I met my new friend Kate in the bathrooms in the Institute and we hit it off immediately it was pretty cool. She is from California and was here with her Church group to travel around Utah. I loved the outfit she was wearing and so I asked her where she got it and she said she got her shirt from a thrift store in California and her scarf from Italy! And the rest is history I suppose :) We hung out for a little bit after that and then yesterday she had a few hours of free time and so she came down and Amanda and I took her to Nickel City and These are some pictures of our adventure.

TiCkEtS, tIcKeTs, TICKETS!!!!!!! Kate got about 400+ tickets, Amanda got about 350+ tickets I think she was really close to 400 if not more than 400, I got 566!!


I didn't know Amanda took the bottom picture (just so you know that face was not on purpose) ha ha I love it! Kate and I were trying to organize our tickets so it wasn't a jumbled mess. Amanda had taken hers and put them in the ticket counter, I was trying to get her attention to stop her so we could all get a picture of us and big piles of tickets. Sadly she didn't hear me. She was somewhat lucky though because it was kinda hard to take all of our tickets and try to fold them up. The picture of the tickets on the floor is a favorite because you only see about a 1/4 of the tickets, they were draped on machines so we could gather them up easier :)


My camera died about half way into our adventure so the rest of the pictures including the ones with Amanda are on Kate's phone. As soon as I get them I will post them because they are adorable!!
