Marathon dream. But it's pretty dang ridiculous. So you should read the whole thing. You will be glad you did.
I was in a big city, it was summer.
My mom, sisters and I were walking through the streets shopping
when I saw Kim Kardashian and her little boy Liam walking next to us.
Kim was wearing trouser dark denim jeans, heels, fitted tee, flowy sweater jacket, and sunglasses.
My mom started talking to the other Kim,
and they "bonded".
As we kept walking,
we came to our resort.
Turns out,
Kim and Liam were staying at the same resort.
Before we went inside,
my mom gave Kim a big hug and said,
"I'm so glad there are modest people like you in the world to be a role model"
I nearly busted up laughing.
The look on Kim's face was one of embarrassment for my mom.
My mom clearly did not know who Kim Kardashian was,
and I don't know if she even knew this Kim was famous.....
So we go inside, change, and head to the pool.
We see Kim and Liam playing at one end.
My mom waves.
Then we decide we are hungry,
so we go to the FOOD COURT
at our resort.
It's a giant 3-story building filled with every single fast food and Chinese restaurant in existence.
after a very long time trying to decide what to eat,
we order and they deliver it to our lounge chairs.
I don't even remember what I decided on....
As we are eating,
the huge waterfall at one end of the pool lights up and starts moving forward.
The lower tier of the waterfall turns into a water covered stage,
and from under the upper tier out walks Dolly Parton.
She starts performing this huge concert.
EVERYONE is dancing.
Including Dolly, who is up on the side of the pool kind of being naughty.
When Dolly finishes,
The lights change.
Next to the waterfall there appears an indoor surfing machine.
Out pops Justin Bieber.
Surfing.
On the side of the pool.
As he's performing,
(while surfing)
He keeps looking at me and winking.
The whole time I have to take pictures because I cannot get over what is happening around me.
But the whole Justin thing is creeping me out a bit.
The performance ends.
We head inside
AFTER saying goodbye to Kim and Liam.
Then head out.
We're now driving through a beautiful countryside.
We stop at an old ranch that has been transformed into a gorgeous, chic boutique, restaurant, and hangout. After walking around, buying a few things,
eating a few things,
I notice one of the super awesome girls I went to BYU-Hawaii with.
Turns out she owns the place.
She designed all the clothing and trinkets in the boutique,
and is SUPER successful.
She was married and had a little blonde boy.
But the father is always away - either for business or military, I didn't ask -
so we didn't get to meet him.
My mom makes one of her classic moves,
and spills on her shirt.
So what does she do?
Walks into Catherine's closet and starts trying on shirts.
Not the boutique,
Catherine's CLOSET.
My jaw is hanging wide open, I'm in utter shock of what is going on.
After trying on nearly 2 dozen tops,
my mom decides on a Louis Vuitton cardigan and sweater tank number.
Her shoes somehow were ruined too,
so she grabs a pair of hunter green Prada flats from Catherine's closet.
As we head out to leave,
My mom says bye and thanks to Catherine.
I'm still without words.
Then we drive to our next resort.
In the hotel room -
solid white and crystal -
I decide to unpack and lay down.
I go to bring my toiletries into the bathroom,
and it looks like a temple baptismal font.
No joke.
It's exquisite and vaguely familiar.
Come to find out,
They are about to begin construction on a new LDS temple next door,
and are trying out a few new design ideas here in this resort
so they can be perfected before being implemented in the temple.
Then some other things happened,
I think I may have gotten on a Deer Valley ski lift at some point...
And there may have been a little Michael Buble too..
I just can't remember all of it.
It was crazy I tell you,
CRAZY.
Not going to lie - I almost checked my phone when I woke up this morning to see if those pictures of Kim Kardashian, Dolly Parton, and Justin Bieber were actually there.
