the best day yet

saturday night was by far the best day of 2014 so far. i do not know why but somehow my friends and i have found ourselves at nickel arcades more than a few times lately. they are fun, bring out the inner child and cheap hours of fun. 

luke came and hung out with us and meg's best friend trevin (who was visiting) came too. we all grew up in the same ward so it was a lot of fun. 

 there was a time in our lives for about 4 months straight me and my other best friend kristin would go to luke's house EVERY single day to play dance dance revolution. we of course were not passing up this opportunity when we saw it at the nickelcade. we played on hard and it kicked our butts. there was once a time when even expert was easy for us. 

 our prizes included a chinese finger trap, 2 deputy badges, a fake cockroach, rubber popper toys, and a million fruities. i would say a great waste of money. 

 after we decided a sparkling cider toast was a must. 

 we also got frozen yogurt facials

 and we ended the night with a paper lantern send off. i have an obsession with these suckers. best things ever. i am aware i look a little too happy to be lighting this thing up.
