Homecoming

Welcome home Maxy Poo!

Max and I have grown up together and been friends for a long time. We met in the third grade, found out we were related, and BAM! Best friends. We went to the same ward, same elementary, I would help him with his paper route, and remember spending many summer nights playing night games on the golf course that was his backyard. We have made so many incredible memories and he truly is like a brother to me. He just recently returned home from his mission in Florida and I know he was just the best missionary ever. He is one of the greatest people I know and it's so good to have him back home!

Saying goodbye...

Welcoming him home!

The Rents

This post is going out to my cute, sweet parents.

To put it simply, they are the best.

This last week, I had a little mishap with my car (and by mishap I mean sliding on some ice and hitting a curb) and unfortunately did more damage to my car than I thought making it not drivable. This was very stressful considering how necessary a car is for me for school and work. I tried coordinating with my brothers but they are really busy as well and it just wasn't working out.

But my parents, like the champions they are, came to my rescue. They both work a lot and have plenty of things they need to do, but they worked out their schedules with each other so that they could share a car leaving one available for me when I needed it.

Talk about parents-of-the-year award!

So all week long I had my mom's car while her and my dad shared until I got mine back today.

Basically my parents are the sweetest people around and this is just only a tiny example of all the things they have done for me.

They are the BEST and I love them so much!

So, heres to you mom and dad!

25 years and still going strong!

Campus Convos

Do you ever find yourself walking on campus, or anywhere for that matter, and you hear only parts of people's conversations that make you wonder what in the world they could be talking about or that just make you laugh? I love that and heard some pretty good ones today.

1. "So... my mom doesn't really like you." - Poor person on the other end of that phone conversation!
2. "Do I really wanna live in Cedar City? Isn't it just full of hicks and Amish people?" - This just made me laugh being a former resident of Cedar, gotta love it!
3. "I don't think I wanna do biology anymore, I hate rocks." - HAHA, this one was my favorite of the day.

Who knew walking to and from class could be so entertaining!

Cheese head

Although I'm not a packers or a steelers fan, I was a cheese head this super bowl and was glad green bay came out with the W!

And I think I must have missed something during the half-time show because I think I'm one of the few people who actually enjoyed it. The only thing I could have done without was Fergie, but other than that I thought it was good! Lots of lights, Slash, Usher, the dancers, the energy... pure entertainment.

I have to say though that there have been super bowls with better commercials than this one.

Until next year!

peace.love.gamma

I am in a LDSSA sorority called Gamma and this weekend we had a lovely retreat at a cabin up in midway. I can honestly say it was one of the funnest (most fun?) nights I have had in a long time. We spent the night giggling and just enjoying a good old fashioned girls night. Here is what some of the festivities included:

• eating delicious taco soup (followed by a variety of junk food of course)
• making mod podge journals
• a dance party (woke up sore the next morning)
• a HILARIOUS game of rollick
• chatting and getting to know each other better
• eventually sleep
• and waking up to bagels and a winter wonderland outside

I had sooo much fun and feel so lucky to have met and gotten to know these girls! They are becoming some of my best friends and I can't wait to get to know them even better and have more adventures with them as the semester continues.

I love my gamma girls!

Who I Am

I stole this idea from two of my cute friends (Thanks Mandy and Mel), but I loved it and wanted to do it too!

Who I Am.

I am... happy

I want... a horse

I have... a job that I love

I wish... there were more hours in a day

I hate... olives and licorice

I fear... that time will go by too quickly

I search... for blogs to stalk :)

I wonder... what the future has in store for me

I regret... not taking more risks

I love... my family

I ache... for those in need

I always... make to-do lists

I usually... procrastinate

I am not... creative

I dance... whenever I have a chance!

I sing... horribly, but do it anyway

I never... have a clean room

I sometimes... take naps

I cry... in Extreme Home Makeover

I am not always... focused

I lose... in just about every card game

I am confused... by boys

I need... my Savior

I should... tell people I love them more often

Who are you?
