Hello

Well I just got back form a Super Activity that I went on with my ward. I was SOOOOOOO fun :) The girls I was with stayed up all night... well I have to say I did too. It was fun.
I will tell you what we did:
We woke up at 4:30 in the morning and met at our church so that we could be to Welfare Square on time. When we got to Welfare Square we did service (I worked on the grounds with my friends), then we went on a tour. We learned that the wheat building that you pass by on the freeway is the only original building from the 1930s and that it only took 15 days to build. WOW if you ask me. Then we ate lunch and took off the the Humanitarian Aid building. There we spent three hours packing little kits with towels and mask. It was fun :) We talked while working and joked with our group. We went on a tour there it was fun too.

When we got to our hotel room we decided to go to the Mall that was across the freeway so that we could get something we needed for the prank we did later that night. We left with out telling our leader (on accident). While we were walking over the bridge that went over the free way we looked over and low and behold there was our bishop his truck with his wife and kids.... oops. We walked the rest of the way there got what we needed and walked back. When we got to our room our leader came out of her room and yelled at us down the hall,
"GIRLS WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?" we ran into our room and slammed the door, but the lock was in the way and it came flying back open hehehe. She came in and was yelling at us, but she had a hard time keeping a straight face. She started smiling and it turns out the bishop had told her. After we were at the hotel for a little bit we went to a Bees game. it was good (besides the drunk people surrounding all sides off us :P) They played the Sacramento River Cats. They were losing and it was horrible, but then in the last inning the Bees hit a home run and we won!!!! It was cool.
After we got back from the game we talked to the bishop about the prank and he said yes. When the boys were swimming we put silly string and toilet paper all over the room , plus we ripped up napkins and put them all over the place. (yes I know we are mean, but the funny thing was that a girl from our group, her mom gave her the idea for the prank :) While we were doing that we asked a girl to call the service desk to have awake up call go to their room for 3 in the morning. Then we went swimming after we were done. While we were swimming the boys forced their way into the room and dumped all of our things out on our beds, and hid our shoes behind the bed table.

When it was three we decided to go to their room and sit outside the door with pillows and listen to the wake up call. We all sat there for 4 minutes and the wake up call didn't work. So one of the girls put her cell phone in the room on high and closed the door. It still didn't wake them up. So when we went in to get the phone one of the guys woke up and touched the back of one of the girls. We all ran to the elevator and left the one girl locked in the room alone. (we sent her to go in after the phone because her brother was in the room) We came back for her and left after she was outside the room.(we were not planing on doing anything besides listening to the wake up call. We fully didn't intend to send one of the girls in their room)
We wondered what was up with the wake up call, so we had the service desk send one to the beehives. We called and told them it was time to get up. We went to their room to check on them and two of 6 were up. We told that they had to get ready for the morning side. They looked at the clock and noticed that it was only 4 in the morning. They went back to bed.
We stayed up the rest of the night and had fun. We went and got hot chocolate, then went to the vending machine. When we went to the vending machine we forgot our key and so we were locked outside the room. Smart aren't we :). We went down to the desk and asked for our key. We went back into our room and talked the rest of the night.
We went to a morning side the next morning and had a BYU football player talk to us about avoiding sin. He did a really awesome job. We went to the temple at noon, then ate dinner after wards. We then went home and slept the whole way.

It was a fun trip and we had fun. The boys didn't really get mad at us neither did the Beehives. We all told them sorry and they still love us so I guess we are good :)

Well yep that was my weekend :)
