This is the Place: UTAH

My home land ladies!

Welcome.

First thoughts of Rachel/the first date: boring, boring, boring and her smoker voice annoys me.

Kacie is my favorite.

She's acting a little needy though.

Can this date get any more awkward?

Wow I'm really surprised she got a rose.

Samantha was a little too brazen for her own good. She made me feel uncomfortable.

And obviously she made Ben feel uncomfortable.

Good choice Ben. Send her packin.

Kacie will be in the final two for sure.

Ok so I've been to the Homestead crater and I've swam in it a couple of times. There are perfectly accessible stairs on the other side of the hill... no need to rock climb and leap over fences.

I totally feel for this Girl, Courtney is a snake. On the other hand I think she showed Ben more about her own character than Courtney's. Not a good move.

Courtney is the new Bentley.

She is so playin this game.

She is eeevvill

Usually the departed confessions are hilarious but I actually felt bad for Monica. She voiced some really relatable concerns and feelings about finding love. Anyway... at least she doesn't have a long ride home.

In the end this video sums up everything pretty well.

I was tagged by my friend/sister in-law Sarah for the "11 fun facts/questionnaire" powwow and i thought i'd play along.

1. what is your favorite holiday and why?

Well I feel like Christmas is the obvious choice here but I’m going to say Easter because sometimes my birthday falls on Easter and what’s better then presents and Easter candy… you know besides presents and Christmas candy (I’m not sure if I even answered that question).

2. if you had to pick between having hair all over your back that you couldn't shave or being bald and not being able to do anything about it, which would you pick?

I’d be bald. Seriously! I’ve actually thought about going all G.I. Jane and shaving my head. I think it would be so fun to wear a different wig everyday. Have a new hair color and cut everyday.

3. what is your best memory of high school and why?

Just being with my friends everyday. Going to lunch at my friend Jane's house. Laughing so hard during lunch, the thought of going back to school just isn’t possible so we usually ended up skipping last period.

4. if you won the lottery, what would be the very first thing you would buy?

I’d buy Dinner for my whole family and then we’d go car shopping because I’d need my dad and brothers’ help in choosing a good one.

5. how old were you when you got your first real kiss? {12 and under doesn't count}

18. I don’t kiss just anyone.

6. what is your biggest regret in life?

I wish I’d gone on more walks and had more talks with my mom.

7. what's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you?

“You have such a pretty profile.” Grandma Averett… she’s always so quick to give me compliments.

8. what is something you are looking forward to?

Road trip to California this coming March to visit Zach and Sarah

9. if you could visit any country for free, which would it be?

Ireland (Does this need an explanation? I don't think so)

10. if you could eat as much as you wanted of one food and you would never gain weight, what would it be?

This is tough… probably the toughest question of the bunch (that’s sad. I know.) I think my choice would have to be Olive Gardens Gnocchi soup, unlimited bread sticks and a yummy pasta dish. And after that desert is a must, I’d choose a Pizookie from Firehouse Pizza.

11. in your eyes, what is the perfect date?

One of my favorite dates was where the guy made us a packed lunch, we ate at the park and we did side walk chalk. It was simple, it was practically free and the conversation was great. I love dates like that.
