Miss Samantha Visits Provo

I've already mentioned numerous times how completely awesome my sisters are; you're probably tired of hearing it, but I don't care, they're the best. And little Samantha, well three years at home with just Mom and Dad has made her, well . . . hysterical. For example, my parents take off for the weekend and leave their 17-year old, Senior in high school child home alone. Any normal child would go a little crazy, have a party, at the very least stay out past curfew because well there is no one to check on you. Not Sam. I'm having this conversation with Sam and her response to my encouraging her bad behavior is: "Well, I have to come home at a reasonable hour because I have to take care of the dog. I mean he can't be stuck in his room all day." Seriously! The dog. That girl probably loves the dog more than she loves a quadruple stuffed Oreo. (and if you know Sam, that is saying something)

Since my parents ditched Sam, the Utah sisters were thrilled to let Sam ditch the parents and come out for a "college visit" weekend. Shannan thought she'd be funny by emailing out an itinerary before Sam arrived. It was a great weekend!
