"Three words, treat yo self."

Awhile ago I blogged about how we like to treat ourselves. What we haven't blogged about however is how this semester we have taken the phrase "Treat yo self" to heart. Tuesday nights have become mini holidays at our apartment and have been named Treat Yo Self Tuesday. What this means is every Tuesday we clear our schedule ignore our homework and go out to eat and watch a movie. It's been an instant success.

 Treat Yo Self Tuesday gets me through the week.
Look forward to a blog about the ultimate Treat Yo Self day, Tuesday March 13, DISNEYLAND!

"It's about time Benny, my clothes are goin' outa style."

Well Emily is sicky mcsick which means things are pretty quiet around here so I guess its time for a 'lil blog. I have once again been collecting texts, I've got a few more then last time but I think they are worth your time.
Remember the last text blog when Emily admitted to eating a pound of stocking candy in under 5 minutes?

"Here comes Salami Sam!"

My friend Mallory sent me this video in an email. It brought tears to my eyes because I was laughing so hard. Simply when he flashes the yellow card.

Happy Friday!

"And I was RUNNIN!"

I think Morgan says it best, "me and Emily are queens of the linger longer. First to the food, first out the door." Yesterday after church was a linger longer or as they call it in Amy's ward, "a cookie and a lookie," so disturbing. The ward meets in the gymnasium and you're suppose to eat and mingle with everyone. We are pro's at the eating, mingling not so much. The last time we went to one of these things all they had was granola bars, orange slices, and capri suns... "What are we at soccer practice?!" - Anna Campbell. We enter the gym and see that they have boxes of cereals, milk, chocolate milk, orange juice, monkey bread, and a bowl full of Valentine's candy for us. Morgan and I stake out the closest table to the food. Our method the closer you are to the food, equals first in line as soon as they say Amen. Before they say the prayer on the food our roommate informs us that she needs to be home soon to go to dinner at her boyfriend's parents. She asked if we could dine and dash, our response, "No problem!" Of course we are first in line, we had been eyeing the trix cereal beforehand but then once to the table I noticed there was reese's cups cereal, "Morgan there's reese's cereal!" "Grab it!" We ate that cereal in record time and at one point I found Morgan stuffing my dress pockets with candy. On our way out the door I turn to Morgan and tell her that I could really use a glass of orange juice and if she thinks it's at all possible for me to make it back in the crowd surrounding the food. She turned to me and said, "It's risky." I had very little time but I came out with flying colors and my glass of orange juice raised in the air. Anna saw me with it and said, "Hey I want one! How did you get that?" I told her you got to be sneaky. As I'm drinking my orange juice Morgan asks me if she can have some. If there is anything I have learned with Morgan and drinks and food when asking if she can have "some" it means practically the whole thing. My new method leave the last gulp or bite for her. I tested it out and gave her the last bit my orange juice. Her response when seeing it, "Oh new method? I assume the rest is for me?" "Yes Morgan... Yes it is." She took it beautifully.

"I'm the next Nicki Minaj!"

Listen hear if you are not well aware of Sophia Grace and Rosie by now you must live under a rock. Watch Ellen for the love! Seriously though if you don't know who they are hit up YouTube and watch all the clips of them on Ellen. We are in LOVE with these two girls! WE can not can not can not get enough of them! Today they were on Ellen performing for like the fifth time and out of no where Sophia launches into an incredible original rap about her and Rosie.
Watch and be amazed.
Oh and by the way they are cousins, go figure.
I want to meet them even more then I want to meet Ellen.

First we're going to take an hour meditation break. Then we're going to climb that 1000-foot rock face over there with our bare hands and feet.

Morgan and I are applying to work as zip line guides this summer in Tennessee. We are praying that we get the job! Being in the mountains everyday, working with amazing people, and just simply Morgan and I together in Tennessee. What more could you ask for? Watch the video, if we get the job, you will definitely want to come visit us!

"Team Perkis"

The two of us have some great conversations via text.
I've collected a few that I think the rest of you will appreciate. Enjoy.

This occurred after Emily's inhaler arrived in the mail.
Some of you may know Emily's Facebook was hacked by cyber bully's who claimed that Em was stranded in the UK and needed 1,500 big ones. The very next day they hacked her E-mail too. Oh and on the off chance you didn't know already, Em's password for everything has been catsrule for the past 13 years.  Also, currently Emily's nails are glow in the dark green.
I think my instincts were spot on for this one, sadly we didn't go.
What this one is missing is a time stamp. 1:30 am
