A Night On The Lake

Yesterday was a way fun day! Work was not super busy and I got home and had dinner and took a nap (always)! Haha so after everyone was done with work we went out on the MB. That's the nicest/biggest boat we have. It has a v-drive so it gets a good wake. And good news! I got up on the wake board! It was such a rush! I loved it so much and the lake was seriously as glassy as a lake can be! It was perfect! Everyone was so cool and was helping me and I got up on the first try! Seriously right after I got out the lake turned way choppy and the wind started picking up. It was rough for everyone else... :) it got way cold and I was ticked but the sunset was beautiful and it was fun being out with my coworkers on that awesome boat!

First wake board!

Lake Life

So I must apologize for the delay in posts, there have been some major changes happening and the internet just didn't have a place for it yet! I am now officially moved into my house in Garden City Utah. Just check out the view I get!

The Beautiful Bear Lake
Yeah I get to wake up to that every morning! I seriously have loved it here. It's a huge adjustment and change is always kind of scary but this place is starting to feel like home!
So this is the deal. I work on Ideal Beach, this view that you're seeing above is at our RV Park. I live at the RV Park in a little house that doubles as the office. It's actually pretty nice. I mean as nice as you can get for a house with no heating or cooling system and where the electricity goes out on a frequent basis, but when you get past that it's a pretty solid place to live. For the last week I haven't had any roommates, so Rose (my manager/ big sis' childhood bestie) and her husband were staying with me, but I have great news! My coworker Kalie Gilmour finally moved in just yesterday! She and I are getting to be great friends. All my other coworkers are way cool too! To be honest I think my favorites are the ones that are like 5 years older than me... typical Paige. Anyways there is Sherida, John, Denton, Heidi, Spencer, Kalie, Sierra, Gabe, Alec, M'kay (yes that is how he spells McKay;)), Nic, Carson, Jamen, Rose, and Nate and Mark are the head honchos! I may be forgetting some people, but I think that's most of them!
Sherida is 24 and she is so awesome! We've really bonded in like a solid 2 days! She's like a big sister except she likes me! We went out on a boat the other day and these 24 year olds were just treating me like a normal friend, it was really nice!
John is so awesome! He is also 24 I think and he and I jam together sometimes! He has a voice like an angel and I could seriously listen to him all day! He's from around here so it's cool cuz he knows all the cool spots and has promised to help me have the best summer ever!
Denton is one of the managers! He's probably late 20's and is a very complex individual, to say the least! Haha when I met Denton, I was sure I hated him... But he really just acts all tough so he doesn't show his soft, sweet side. He's like a cowboy/ rap star... Haha he wears boots everyday to work, and listens to country and rap. I really do love that guy, swearing and all. He treats me like a little sister and I feel like he'd protect me like one too.
I haven't gotten to know Heidi that well actually. She is Denton's sister and that's about all I know about her. She is super tiny though! She looks like she could fit into a little hamster ball!
Spencer, oh what to say about Spence. He is this big bear! He's really nice, but awkwardly laughs too hard at things I say... Oh well! He is a really good worker and it's really easy to get stuff done with him. I still need to get to know him better as well.
Kalie is my new roommate! Kalie is 18 and just graduated. We work together on ideal beach and I really like her! She's from Iowa and is very cute. For any of you that know Kara Kocherhans Wadsworth they are like twins! She is really fun and I can tell we're gonna be good friends. I am nervous about her flirtatiousness though.
Cierra just got her a couple days ago and we are already starting to hit it off! She's 18 and just graduated like me. She seriously is so funny! We have like the same mind! She looks at me and I like already know what she's thinking! She is so fun and I really hope she moves in soon!
Gabe is just a doof. Haha he's actually pretty cool when he's not being a stupid teenage boy. That's actually pretty true about all of the my boys. He's also 18 and just graduated. He looks a lot like me actually, Rose thinks we could be brother and sister. We haven't quite gotten to that friend point yet, but I think he likes me well enough!
Alec is so cute! He's 17 and is super tall and skinny haha! But he looks like he could be Clark Kent when he has his glasses on. He is also a doof, but is cool when he's just himself. Alec has a bunch of friends from Blue Water (rival rental place) and they are almost always the biggest jerks, but I like Alec! I hope we can be good friends!
M'Kay is really cool. He's 23 and just finished a mission in South Africa. He is bald but has a full beard haha! He's going to BYU Idaho in the fall and he is very cool! His name has become Mmmm k! :)
I had a real big crush on Nic, but unfortunately he has fallen for my roommate. It's okay though! Always willing to third wheel :). Nic and M'Kay are brothers and he is so cool! There is not disputing that he is the coolest of all of our boys. He's 17 and is from Colorado. He works at Ideal with me putting boats in the water. Nic I know is going to be a real homie this summer.
Carson is a character. I'm tellin ya, if they would all just be normal they would be stunners! They just feel like they have to put on this tough/ douche guy act. Carson is 16 which is very surprising! He's really nice though and I'm excited to hang out with him more.
Jamen and Rose are married and to say it simply, they are my favorite people. That is all I have to say.
Nate is awesome! Almost everyone that works here is related to Nate. Him and his wife Suni just had a baby boy named Crew, and that little guy is so freakin' cute! They have another little girl and her name is Ryann. She's so sweet!
Mark is the scariest of company, but is still very reasonable and great to work with. He lives in Farmington and we don't see him often, but hear from him also every day... not if we can help it though!
So far that's kind of my experience, just getting to know my coworkers/ the work itself! It's going to be a fun summer though and I'm really excited.
Makin so much money too ;)

New Adventures, New Look

So after graduation there was this great all nighter! Everyone won a prize and there were so many sweet prizes available! Anyways I got a fifty dollar gift card to Amara! Amara is a salon, spa and boutique! So I decided I wanted to do something kind of fun for the summer and I am so excited about it too!

I tinted my eyebrows! I seriously love them so much! They're bold and different and so pretty! I think that they really help bring out the color in my eyes! I also got them waxed and I tinted my eyelashes black! It'll all be so nice for the summer because I won't have to worry about putting on mascara when I'm getting in and out of the water! Anyways let me know if you like them! Love you all!


Graduation

It's true everyone! After 13 years of schooling Paige is done! Well of course there is BYU in the fall, but that's not the type of schooling I'm talking about. I can think back to the day that I found out who my kindergarten teacher was. Stacie Christensen was in my ward and I played at her house on a regular basis. We most definitely took advantage of their cool tree house! I also remember that I had the hardest time saying her name. I mean for a five year old "Christensen" was hard to say. It's so weird to think that it all began there and now I'm graduated from high school! I'm way excited, don't get me wrong, but it is kind of emotional. Leaving everything I've ever known and moving out. Ooo it's crazy! Anyways, here are some of the pictures from graduation!

After graduation we had a barbeque with Josh and Kristen as well as my parents, the babies, and Rachel. It was the best barbeque my father has ever made! Ooo and Paula made garlic mashed potatoes and we had Caesar salad, my favorite! We took some pictures outside the house because we all really liked my dress, had to remember the grad outfit right?!
 






 
 
 
Because one of these days I'm gonna fly away!
