b. karf weekend

this weekend my best friend brittany rogers (and her husband spencer) came to visit us!!! they were our first official houseguests since we've moved to LA and i loved every second of having them here (even though they did have to sleep on the couch/floor, poor kids). we got to show them around pasadena and the greater so cal region. on saturday we went to disneyland.




navigating the park (right before we ran into fellow blogger roxanne...that was so random and funny! i wish we had met up again, lady!)

i make him take a lot of pictures with me.






BFFs.

i met brittany junior year at BYU, when she moved into the glenwood via my friend emily. (i would love to post pictures of this era in life but unfortch they are on my old computer.)

we hit it off right away and have been friends ever since, living in provo (together), salt lake (her), rancho and then LA (me), colorado (her) and new york city (together).

we were bridesmaids in each others' weddings, moshed to fall out boy together, longboarded (and later hiked, after my crash ended my longboarding career) in provo canyon and road tripped to CA (even when we got a ticket for driving too fast).







we've explored midget chocolate factories, gotten lost in various utah ski canyons, enjoyed a ton of diet soda and high fiber ceral, met each other's moms, siblings, pets and boyfriends (and voted on which ones should become our husbands). i love my karf -- i have a best friends forever necklace to prove it -- and i'm so glad she came to visit!

At first I thought your title was "barf weekend"..and I was worried that you lost your cookies on Indian Jones ride or something.
But, alas...it was all about Brittany! And, as a personal note...did you know that I knew her even before we went to BYU?
We met at a BYU BBQ in Denver CO during the summer before our freshman year, and well. I really wanted to be her friend because she was the only "normal" girl at the BBQ. Haha.
She does rock, so I agree with that.

And, soo fun that you got to go to Disneyland with her! Lucky dawg!

How fun! I'm glad you got to spend time with your best friend, that's the best. Also, I liked your Mother's Day post. haha, I know what you mean about feeling left out. I'm in the same boat, but just maybe a little closer to the mommy thing than you are.

looks like Disneyland treated you pretty good...don't worry, my Disneyland post will be forthcoming! I'm actually pretty ticked that you didn't call me...i would have ran up and talked to you guys more. LAME! I forgive you though since you and I both have the same Volcom shirt!

What a fun weekend. Chris and I want to get Disneyland passes...sometime in the future. I did not get your email actually. I even checked all 4 of my email accounts. :) Email me here: katherton@gmail.com. Hopefully it was about our finale party?!
