With that said here we go !!!!!
This last weekend my mom and eden came down to watch a couple of teams (that have been recruiting eden) play in a volleyball tournament. I always love it when they get to come down because we always have SO SO much fun together. So friday night we went and ate at Benihana, and of course ordered 2 extra orders of rice to go--- thats just what we do..... and since the tournament was in orem we drove down there and got a hotel. ( a special thanks to dear sweet brock for always letting me run away with my mom and sisters when they come around) We had some time to spare so we went to check and see if the hot light was on at KRISPY KREME and we were in luck because it was and at 10:00PM we sat down to some HOT doughnuts. then went back to our hotel I would love to go into every detail of our night and tell you that we got in our PJs and told scary stories to eachother... but whats more on my mind is MAW SPECIAL & FAVORITE. Now to some these names are just crazy ! but MAW got her name because we she is our ma and thats how addi says it but eden and I like to throw on a bit of a southern accent... but Special & Favorite go wwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaayyyyyy....... back .(ps. we were talkin funny talk in the bathroom at the tournament and this lady said "ok I have got to ask where you guys are from." We all broke down laughing and said Southern Idaho . HAHAHA) The story goes somewhat like this......
One summer my mom decided that she was going to "trim up" all of her bushes and trees around the house and give them a makeover. She was lucky enough to have 2 daughters- 1 that could drive and 1 that was pretty strong. ME being them both (haha j/k eden is strong, i could just drive) So she went about cuttting like Edward Sizzorhands- any thing that got in her way got cut off. So me & eden tried to keep our distance.....Our jobs were to load up the back of the truck with all of the branches (or whatever) that got cut off drive it to the dump and empty it and then come back and do it all over again. after a couple of days of doing this Eden & I were sick & tired of picking up branches & driving them to the dump and throwing them out of the back of the truck. our arms and legs had taken a beaten up from doing all of this. We had been complaining all day and ended up calling eachother a few names sisters shouldn't and my mom had had enough...... She gave us the talk that nice girls don't talk that way to eachother blah blah blah. So the "NICE" names that we came up with for eachother Were special-EDEN and favorite-Me. because eden is "special" if ya get my drift and eden thought that my mom favored me. The names stuck and we made them permanent. One time on our way from the house to the dump the branches kept falling out onto the road and since i was driving i would make special jump out and grab them and throw them back in. -----I know it doesnt seem like that hefty of a task but after doing it for days and over and over... it becomes wearing on ya. ----anyway special had just made herself an icecream cone before we left so she was ticked off it was her turn to throw the branches in in the first place.... so i thought that it would be funny to pull a trick on her. as soon as she came to get back in the truck i started going and made her walk for a while... most people stop and say "come on just let me back in" NOT SPECIAL she just kept running by the side so i picked up speed a little bit until at one point she was at a sprint she threw her freshly made icecream at me and i slammed on the breaks----- She ran into her open door and it knocked her down.. then she got up jumped in, retrieved her icecream cone wiped it off with her finger and started eating it again. I cannot think of another time when i have ever laughed so hard for so long.
Also throughout this time I LOVED the wreckers (michelle branch) and I had just gotten their CD. I made eden listen to it over and over and over all summer and it drove her crazy.... to the point where she actually liked it. .... There were sooo many more events like this that happened.
That summer was one of my most memorable. Eden& I got to develop our relationship and we had a lot of fun doing it. (our poor trees looked like they were dead by the end of it but they did grow back !!)Sorry mom that we complained so much about it.... I always thought of eden as a friend but that summer we became Special & Favorite friends!!! We went through a rough patch there for a bit and we have been working on things and being able to spend this last weekend with herI am pretty sure that I HAVE MY SPECIAL BACK and i couldnt be happier !!!!! Edee-eedle my needle- special-E-ETC.... I LOVE YOU !!! Good luck with picking where to play !!!!
PS. I love Brit & Maddi too!!!! oh and Dex
