Prom 2012(:

For Prom 2012, I went with Carter Allred. Our group that went with us on the date was, Moriah and Austin, Zach and Yvette, and Me and Carter. Our date started at 10:00 a.m. We headed out to Ellensburg to go on a hike a falls of some sort. So we started heading out, via google map directions(none of the guys had been there in over a few years). Well after 2 hours of continuous driving, we still could not find this hike. On this drive, Carter and I came up with little funny things to talk about or laugh about. For example, we saw multiple people bent over looking at the ground very intensely. We called them rock hunters. haha We each described how they would catch the rocks and crouch down and wait for the rocks to fall into their trap. haha It sounds very stupid but it was an inside joke that went on throughout our whole date. There were multiple other inside jokes that we ended up coming up with throughout our date. We ended up asked three different people where this place might possbibly be. By the third person we found out that we were alomost there. When we got there, we found out that we had to have a certian pass in order to even go onto the trail! haha We kinda wondered around for a little, trying to figure out where to get this pass. Well we see these old women come off the trail. They got in there car and started to drive out of the parking lot. We caught them and asked them where they got their passes. They didnt exactly tell us, but they did tell us that if we were caught without one we would possibly only get a warning. That was good enough for us so we set off on this hike. Now my father was worried sick about me the previous night, so the following morning he put together a phanny pack for his little girl. haha So i had this giant phanny pack on me while we hiked. I did get a little teased about it but I lived. haha We continued hiking and hiking. At about this time it was like 12:30 and we were starving and we had only just begun. We asked some people how far away it was and they said like 20 minutes. haha We were dieing. We had to cross a couple streams in order to get to the falls and a couple times we had to pass by some cliffs. Both times, I thought we would all fall or trip or possibly die. When we could finally hear the falls we came up to this sort of swampy area, it was just mud and logs. In order for us to see the front of the falls, we had to somehow get around this muddy spot. That took us a while. haha After the muddy area, we had to cross this steep ravine. It was a steep incline that we had to cross. I was so scared!!! It was crazy! If you missed one step you would end up falling and easy 200 ft onto rocks and water. But i was okay, we all made it across. Not thinking we had to go back the same way. Once across the ravine, we had to sort of slide down this giant rock. It was literally a really steep rock slide. It was actually made up of multiple smaller rocks but people had slid down it so many times that it was so smooth and combined into one. Well that pretty much ruined everyone's pants and clothes. The girls were not really happy about that. Moriah and Austin stayed up at the top, because Moriah was scared of falling and hurting herself. And we didnt need a trip to the Emergency Room. So there we were at the bass of the falls, it wasn't that big, maybe 200 ft. But it was still so pretty and it smelled soo clean. There was actually quite a few people there already. After about 10 minutes at the falls we headed back, speed walking all the way back to the parking lot. We were all starving and tired, so we piled in the car and talked about where we wanted to eat. We ended up at Taco Del Mar. It was delicious! We started on our way home and I could tell that Carter and I were both so tired. We both slumped down in our seats and just slept the whole way home. Its probably not a good thing to do on a date, but we were both so tired that we didnt even care. When we got home it was about 4:00, and we all split up and went to get ready for Dinner and the dance. I went to Moriah's and got ready there. Moriah did my hair in a waterfall braid out of my curls. It turned out really pretty for not planning what I even wanted done with my hair. We were finally all ready to go to dinner around 6:00, but we were waiting for one more couple, Carter C and Keestan. We finally headed out to dinner at 7:00. We went to a mexican restaraunt in Ephrata. Why we went to Ephrata for mexican food, I have no idea. haha It was pretty good though. We then went to Zach's house for pictures and to put on the corasages and bouitnerre. After pictures we went to the dance at 9:00. The theme was Hollywood and the Juniors did a great job. It ended up being in the Middle School because it had a smaller gym. We took pictures first and they turned out great. Besides the fact that my smile looks funny. haha We then went into the dance and they had a DJ there. My only complaint was that the music was wayyyyyy too loud. I could talk to Carter at all without yelling, and he was the same way. Other than that the dance was great! They had sparkling cider in fancy cups. (: We left the dance at about 10:45 and went to Moriah's where we watch television till about 11:15 when i was just so tired that I asked Carter to take me home. I could tell that he was either sick of me, or just really tired, so I think it worked out that I went home early. I overall had a great first Prom! I can't wait till next year! :D
