more spring break fun

more spring break fun #1: thursday night kason and i went on a little staycation to the arizona grand resort. it was so nice relaxing and sleeping in a king size bed. kason and i decided that the first thing we are going to save up for is a king size bed. {we will enjoy our 100lb tv with antenna that hit you in the head as you walk in and midget size couches with holes in them for a while. first thing on thing on the list is a bed. not that we aren't thankful to harleigh for letting us use hers. its just well, we need space. you understand.} at the resort they had a water park with some pretty crazy water slides. kason went on them and i, well, here's the story. first i went on the short turning one. slides that are not very high = fun. next kason convinced me to climb the 8 story stair case to go down the big one. i got half way up the stairs turned around and walked back down. after a pep talk from kason i attempted the stairs again. this time i made it to the top and waited my turn as 10 year olds fearlessly went down the nearly vertical slides. sooner than i wanted, it was my turn. the lifeguard lady turned to ask me if i had been down them before so she could instruct me how to do it properly. her question quickly turned into a statement, "you look terrified". and i was. {as i kid i went down those stupid bonzi slides once at sunsplash and hated it and to this day i am terrified of those slides.} i got in the slide ready to go and inched myself forward. i looked down at the drop and i couldn't do it. i pulled myself back up the slide and started crying. that's right i cried. i was so scared of the stupid slide i cried. i got up and let the 8 year old behind me go down and motioned to kason to come up and get me. he laughed a bit and told me i didn't have to go down it. me = biggest dork in the world. new goal = next time i see one of those slides i am going down. despite my failure to defeat my fear of the slide the day at the resort was pretty fun and i enjoyed it.

more spring break fun #2: last night we went to the suns game. even though we were a few rows from the top it was still awesome. we seriously had a blast. if any of you were watching the pre game show you might have seen us cheering for our suns in the background. that's right we were on t.v. i know, awesome.
