Another car accident..nothing new

nothing new..just caring on the yearly car accident that I tend to get in once a year. My dad is right I go through a car a year. well this WAS NOT MY FAULT!

Last Thursday was a usually warm sunny morning, getting myself ready for the day. Going out of my way to do my hair nice because I was in a good mood. Well little did I know that I would not have my car or that same hairdo in 4 min. Some young, 16 yr old dude almost cut me off and almost ran into the car in front of him, I looked at him thinking: he is an idiot and needs to slow down. Well before I know it that boy is behind me and the car in front of me stops fast so I stop and "mr. I'm too cool to slow down"..well he doesn't stop he keeps going right into my car sending me and my car flying into the car in front of me and then the car smashed into the next car and the next..it was a train effect. I was kind enough to take all the pain, I was the only one who got hurt. I got really bad whip lash and cut my toe, but other then that I was good to go. I went to the hospital and they drugged me up. I was so emotional the rest of the day I started crying and Patty came, I told her I was so sad for the whole world, I felt bad for everybody! everybody is sad and I'm sad for them. Then at 3am I decided I hate facebook and deleted my facebook account. I'm still way sore but I'm alive and it was so neat because my uncle gave me a blessing and he said in the blessing that I should thank the Lord because he had protected me and things could have been WAY worse. I do truely feel blessed!

At least it was not as worse as last yr when my car went under the diesel..so ya all things considered I have been blessed.

Fire story, killing innocent rabbit, oh and the wedding~

So my dad and I drove to AZ to see my cousin's wedding, It was dark and I was going 90mph and I saw a bunny...now I could have tried to stop but I was going so fast, so I kept going and felt..a thump, thump = dead rabbit:( I know i'm horriable, I felt like crying (not really) but I kept saying sorry to Heavenly Father..hopefully he will forgive me for my murderous act.



Well that same night my pa and I arrived at a hotel around 1 A.M.ish and he told me to choose a hotel and I really didn't care at that point so I just pulled into the closest one..my dad went in and came out all ticked off because it was $90 stupid dollars for one night that was already half way over..so frustrated we got ready for bed and could hear the loud train right out our window..that was annoying. I felt bad for my dad so I said a prayer..then the fire alarm went off..it would go on then off and then on again! my dad had it..he said, "oh my heck (Im censoring his language)..Crystal go down and tell them to turn that dang thing off and in the morning I want my money back." I thought it was kind of funny..I opened the door to see what everyone else was doing and some guy down the hall was annoyed as well..he had no problem expressing it either. Well I ran into the manager of the hotel and asked what was going on, he replied by yelling, get out! get out! fire! fire! I said well I need to go get my dad, he just kept saying to get out, well I just ran up the stairs to get my dad and we grabbed our stuff and got out like everyone else was being forced to do. Next thing we know there were like 4 fire engines and cops..I was so confused. I asked the manger what is going on?! he told me that some girl was mad at her boyfriend they had been arguing and so she set his bed on fire which then set the whole room on fire..the boyfriend escaped and so did the girl they were later found by cops down town! I mean seriously?...what idiots! who sets a bed on fire and just leaves everyone in the hotel to burn..I felt so bad for all the mother's with babies. Well finally at 4 in the morning we were sent to another hotel to sleep and we got like 3 hours of sleep! ah it was a very long first night in AZ. The good thing was my prayer was answered we didn't have to pay for the hotel. oh and as far as I am aware..no one died..yay.

My dad looks asian..don't ya think?..maybe if he wouldn't always laugh while taking pictures..


I totally won~ well I actually took 5th place but..I beat my dad~ yay go me!


Quinn and Kellie were so kind to let us invade them for one night! they have the cutest kids, house, faces~ and ya I love them and their sweet kids!

Before my dad and I were on the road again we went to Easton's soccer game! wow he is a really good little player~ he made two goals! the only two goals that were made the whole game! whoa go E-Man!!

I'm technically engaged!

Ok so I went on this date with this guy and he took me out to dinner and then we went to the Salt Lake Temple to walk around..although the temple grounds were closed..but of course that did not stop me. I went over the chain, Will (my date) looked at me and said, "What are you doing Crystal?!" I just simply replied that life is more intresting this way. So he joined me on the other side. We are walking and sure enough some guards come up to us and I say "oh I have a question, you see I thought the temple grounds did not close till 9..why are they closed?..it's only 8:30?" the guard says well we close when it gets dark..Will then took my hand and said to the guards that he has something very IMPORTANT to tell me tonight, the guards then said oh, oh well you both take your time, walk around and ya just enjoy the temple grounds we will leave you two alone! hahaha oh I was trying so hard not to laugh. well we were talking and walking around the temple for about an hour and then the guards start coming our way...I said shoot, Will they are going to tell us to leave..well so I thought, then I look at Will and he is on his knee and said, "Crystal Ann Cook, will you marry me?!" he pulled some weird ring out of his pocket, I looked up at the guards and they were apalled, just standing still not knowing what to do because they felt like idiots interupting. I then looked back at Will and through my arms around him and said, "YES!" and he put the silver ring on my hand, but he put it on the wrong finger... of course I corrected him. I then felt so dumb that we totally did that on temple grounds so I grabbed his hand and booked it out before the guards had a chance to say anything to us..I still wonder what they think..I wonder how good of acting performance we did..although he did ask me to marry him and I did say yes..so technically......but not for reals ha ha.

To my Mother, Pam
