Well last night I went on by far the best date I have EVER been on!
And I was lucky enough to go with James Wadsworth :)
The evening started off with Kristee, Brittany, Kamakea, and I finishing the plans for the evening.
Then it was time to go get the boys. We are walking out to my car and Brittany's car ((keep in mind, its been snowing all day, very cold, icy...)) I get to her drive way and my feet just slip out from underneath me, my arms flail up and I just land SO hard on my side. It was kind of like a movie fall almost. But I laid there and laughed for a while. Kristee and Kamakea were on the ground laughing ((in fact Kristee nearly wet her pants she was laughing so hard))
Anyway, we were all SO excited to get the boys but none of us wanted to go first. Haha weird... So of course I go first, I go get James and he just looks so good! ((He is a very handsome man)) And we're walking to the car, he opens the door for me. The two girls in the back "ahhhh" for me because I have such a chivalrous gentlemen as my date.
Then we go to Brigham's.
Then we go to Bridger's.
And we are back to Brittany's.
Kristee and Kamakea were still laughing about my spill on the ice so they tell everyone about it, and I'll admit it WAS pretty funny so I was telling it with them. So we go upstairs and the pizza, crazy bread, and salad is all ready. BUT FIRST, we pass out our papers for the game we will be playing during dinner.
The game goes like this:
Everyone receives a paper containing the words...
Everytime (someone in the room) (does something) you have to (do something)
EX.
Everytime Joe sneezes, you have to talk really loud.
Make sense? Well at the end of dinner you have to guess what everyone was doing.
And it was pretty funny.
Every time I laughed. Kristee had to cluck like a chicken.
Every time Matt took a bit of food, I had to say Brigham's name.
Every time Brigham changed the way he was sitting, James had to hoot like an owl (originally it was every time he started a random conversation he had to say "you don't know what you're talking about" but he wasn't doing that enough so James changed it)
Every time James talked about sports, Matt had to say how much he hated sports (but that wasn't happening a lot so he just cock-a-doodle-doo everytime James uh..I forgot )
Every time Kamakea touched her hair, Brittany had to laugh REALLY loud.
Every time Brittany itched her nose, Brigham had to bark like a dog.
Every time Hailey looked at Karsten, Bridger had to chew with his mouth open (but he changed it to moo)
Every time Kristee took a bite of her food, Hailey had to oink.
Every time Karsten smiled, Kamakea had to baa.
Everytime Bridger ((uh I forgot)) , Karsten had to do 2 jumping jacks.
It was so funny :)
Next game we played was the body part game. This game is incredibly funny but you have to be very comfortable with everyone otherwise it could get awkward. Especially since I put 4 lips in the bowl of body parts... go ahead call me a rebel ;)
The game goes like this, you stand in a circle and you get a bowl full of papers with body parts on them. Someone goes first, you take out two papers. The first one is YOUR body part, the second is the person next to you's body part. And you have to touch those two together until the circle completes and it's your turn again.
Don't think we're weird ok? It really is a fun game! You just need to not have a comfort zone!
It was really funny when the very first one we did was Matt had to put his butt on James' bellybutton. And other funny ones were Kristee had to put her lips on Bridger's stomach. Kamakea's chin on Brigham's shin. My lips on Brigham's elbow. James' lips on my nose ((we were SO close, just breathing each others air it's cool...))
Here are some pictures for your enjoyment:
((the last round we played we were all SO close to each others faces, too funny))
After that we all went to The Riverwoods for the Fire and Ice show. We are walking out to the car, and by now everyone knows my slip and fall on the ice story. We are on the driveway... James comes up and scares me, I scream and start to fall, but he saves me and catches me. "*sigh*...My hero" Everyone starts clapping and cheering, "Yeah James!" Excellent reflexes James. I applaud you.
So we get to Riverwoods and apparently there was ice sculptures and fireworks. Turns out... we missed the fireworks... but we ALL licked the ice sculptures!
And there was a live band and we were all dancing to it, and there was light snow fall, it was SO romantic! ((too bad the only people who really were in love were Karsten and Hailey...))
But it was just... magically in a way :)
I taught James how to dip and I can now say he the perfect dancer!
We ran into Hailey's older brother and he took a picture of our big group by the sculpture that said Fire and Ice 2013. And the girl he was with made all the guys kiss the girls on the cheek for the picture. Classic :)
In the middle of The Riverwoods there was this giant slope with rails and what not, I'm guessing for a snowboarding show or something.. anyway it was caution taped off but we saw Hailey's older brother and girlfriend(?) climb up and side down on it, so we wanted too!
James and I ran up to it first and scaled that thing like nobody's business, then slowly everybody got up there. We took a picture and then one by one the date couples slid down.
James and I went first, it was SO cold!
We wanted to go again, this time trying to go on our feet... but that didn't exactly work. Haha, needless to say we were very cold and wet. But it was SO worth it!
Then we were off to Fat Cats to go bowling. Well the wait was like... an HOUR long. SO we left and went to Miracle Bowl which turned out to be much more fun anyway.
We got the very far lanes and split up. Brittany, Matt, Hailey, and Karsten on one lane. And then Kristee, Bridger, Kamakea, Brigham, James and I on the other. We played skittle bowling.
Skittle bowling? It's a classic. I HIGHLY recommend it.
The colors were:
Pink--bowl through everyone's legs
Blue--spin 8x
Teal--Granny
Green--Hug your date while you bowl
Red--Model walk
but later we changed some to:
Piggy Back
Fred Flinstone
Eyes Closed
More pictures for your enjoyment:
And what is bowling without some funny names?
Kamakea =Yoda
Brigham = Chewie
Kristee = Rolex
Bridger = Honeybuns
me = The Hot One
James = The Sexy One
((and I don't remember the other lanes names..sorry))well, around 11:47 our lane finished bowling ((the other lane had finished a half an hour before and left because some of them had to be home early))
Well, it's the time I KNOW you've all been waiting for.
The doorstep scene.
((ok it's really not that great.. but it was good))
Walking up to James' porch. Did the "thank you's" the "I had fun's" you know, typical doorstep scene. And then we hugged ((it was a good hug too!)) and then he starts to go inside and I start to walk back to the car and the goons from the car have rolled down the window and start yelling, "Amy! You didn't kiss him! Go back!" So I run back to him, kiss him on the cheek. We both blush and then he goes inside and I go to the car.
We are driving away from James' house and Bridger sitting behind me says, "Deer... deer....deer."
Then I see like 8 deer to the right of the car and it scares me! So I scream and slam on the brakes, but the car slids and we keep moving while one of the deer dart out in front of the car. IT WAS TERRIFYING!!
Luckily.. we did NOT hit Bambi.
But both Bridger and Brigham were laughing at how loud I screamed. It was just a little bit scary that's all.
Then we drop off Brigham.
Drop off Bridger.
Take the girls back to Kristee's car at Brittany's house. And I drive home.
Thus ending the best date, ever.
