Jimi Hendrix would be proud

I'm pretty sure playing Rock Band for 4 days straight has made me a better person, both physically and mentally. I traveled down to Arizona this Thanksgiving to spend some much needed friend time with Jenny, Nolynn and Josh. They picked me up from the airport Wednesday night and as soon as we got to the house, we busted out the Rock band and began rocking until I left on Saturday. In between our jammin sessions, we had Thanksgiving dinner. Which was absolutely delicious! Props to Jenny and her phenomenal cooking skills with a special thanks to her obsession with The Food Network channel. After dinner we continued with our quest to become the greatest "Rock Band" band ever.

Friday morning, we dismissed even the idea of getting up at an unthinkable hour to go shopping and slept in like you're SUPPOSED to do on a day off. We went to an afternoon showing of Twilight. I was a little disappointed in the movie, but it was mildly entertaining and I had some terrific popcorn so I ended up enjoying myself. Afterwards, we went shopping. UGH. I'm not a big shopper, but I desperately needed a pair of jeans so we started our pants pursuit. I found a pair that I LOVE, however they came at a costly price. I've never paid so much for jeans before. I'm hoping they'll bring good fortune my way and get me a hot date!
Saturday, we rocked it up some more and then headed off to the Phoenix Coyotes game. It was my first time at a professional hockey game and I had a blast! It was very exciting, but cold in the arena! We scored some free coyote mittens, which definitely came in handy.
Sunday was a gloomy day as I left sunny Arizona and headed home to Utah. I had a fantastic time spending a few days down there and I will miss my good friends a lot, but I know that I will see them again soon. I was actually excited to get home, see my roommates and start decorating for Christmas! Until next time...

It looks like you had a lot of fun down in AZ with Jenn. I wish I could have gone with you I really miss her. I just wish she would move back up here.
