Palm Springs

This week was my friend Lynnae’s 21st birthday. To celebrate a group of us went to Palm Springs for the weekend with her family. On Saturday morning Lorah, Rachel, I headed to the condo. Palm Springs is about an hour and a half away….so not too bad of a drive. Once we got to the condo we met up with Lynnae and her family. After we unpacked the car we headed straight to the pool. It was a relaxing afternoon of lying by the pool and swimming. As the afternoon progressed, the sun by the pool started to disappear. We decided to move onto the grass so that we could tan. We sat there comfortably with our books, iPods, cell phones, and sunglasses….that is until the sprinklers came on. We quickly gathered our things and ran. Rachel was screaming and yelling, “I am getting wet!” At that point we decided to go back to the condo and watch a movie and eat some dinner. After our movie was over Lorah, Rach, and I took Lynnae to Applebee’s for dessert. We made them sing to her and everything. She was pretty embarrassed about the singing, but oh well. After dessert we headed to Hollywood Video to rent Titanic…because Rachel had never seen it. We finally got back to the condo (after getting lost). WE watched the movie and then went to bed.
On Sunday morning Josh and James came to finish off the weekend. The beginning of the day it was cloudy and gray….it even rained a bit. We spent the morning watching a Bill Cosby comedy dvd. We laughed the entire time!!! It finally started to clear up in the early afternoon so we made our way to the pool. I was pretty much in heaven being able to swim all weekend. I swam laps in every stroke. It was amazing. After spending most of the afternoon at the pool we made our way back to the condo again. We decided to play a game that Lorah had brought with her. We laughed so much. It was fun to just hang out and not have to worry about school or anything else.

It was a great weekend filled with a lot of laughs and many new inside jokes.
