Welp!!..this ones for the boys!




Welp...as you can see from the picture I finally got my wish for it to snow...but now that it is here...I'm not so sure that i really did want it cause it's too cold now to walk up to campus..but i guess thats what you get for wanting it to snow so badly...and i have played in it starting tonight because Spencer pushed me in it and then i threw snow balls at him well at least tried to they were just poofed into mist once thrown...not a good idea in blue jeans and with no gloves on....make sure you wear at least waterproof pants and gloves to throw/play in the snow...so the first picture is of Kyle...he thinks he is a fireman...we all give me support and play along with it..but poor guy....he really isn't and he is already 21...how sad..JK....this was when we adventured off the outback where we watched the byu vs air force game...we tried watching it just on tv in the apartment..but its wasn't on...then we tried at chili's...not on...then we successfully went to outback and cheered on a victorious win by the cougars....which are going to the vegas bowl...WHOOO WHOOOOO!!!...watch out arizona.....anyways..the next two pictures are of Spencer and I on an awesome double date with his freshman roommate down in salt lake...first we went to pie...which was probably one of the best pizza places that i have ever eaten at...the only bad thing was that it was right across from the enemies line (U of U)..
ewwwwwww..then we traveled over to temple square and walked around to see the lights... **note to oneself and everyone else...don't were flats after it has snowed...your feet with get numb and feel like they will fall off**...anyways....these boys are who i have been hanging out with lately and they are hilarious..there is also Austin, Joel, Nate squared and some other boys..but i dont have a picture of all of them...how sad..i really need to get one...someday soon i shall have one.....luckily i sat next to Spencer in History and he got my number or else I wouldn't of ever found these awesome, cute, funny (lookin) jk... boys to hang out with and all the wonderful memories i have with them now....YAY for Spencer (mainly me since I thought he was cute and I sat next to him)!!!

Let is Snow....Let it Snow... Let it Snow!!!

So I really want it to snow before I leave Provo for Christmas break...really weird for me...i know since i normally don't really care for snow, but it will feel so much more like Christmas and winter time if it did snow...I truly feel like the right time to snow is during the month of December and January..but after that not so much the rest of the time that I am here til April...but whatever...i cant wait to build another snowman...snow angel...and go snowboarding....YAY!!!!!!!!....so please let it snow some at least before i leave and i will be very happy/maybe even do better on my
finals...well maybe not.......but that would be way cool....anyways...i
can't wait until i get to go sledding again as well and just play in the snow..last year my ward went tubing...way fun....o yeah...so please weather man...say it will snow so i can be happy and have it be truly christmas time.....

Thanksgiving

SO..yesturday was thanksgiving...and umm umm was it wayy wayy waaaay good. I got up and helped my mommy the whole day preparing food. My family usually is all there, but now that they are all grown and up married with their own lives beside my brother Tristan and I, we where the only ones there this time...but anyways..we usually have thanksgiving traditions where the girls get up to help mom and watch the Macy's thanksgiving day parade of course, which was spectacular this year might i add. The boys go and have a turkey bowl and get all beat up...but my ward was lame this year and decided not to have one so my dad and brother had a turkey tennis bowl instead...where my dad whopped my brother...hahaha....then we invite certain people over from the ward each year who all bring food to contribute...it was soo good and i ate so much..i think i actually ate more then my brother this year...he was a weakling....anyways...after we finish with horsederves and dinner we all watch the cowboys game...where they always play on thanksgiving..go cowboys...and they won too yesterday...then we have dessert after we have settled our tummies and got hungry a little again...then we clean up after everyone leaves and watch a movie together...then today- next day- we go out to berry patch farms and get our christmas tree...a nice big fat one..this one is a 10footer i think this year......i love it all and i love the holidays with our awesome family traditions....YAY FOR CHRISTMAS COMING!!!!!!

The Beach House


A few weeks ago, my whole family came into town, but Pat, and only part of them came to the beach house. One day Tyler and Tristan decided to try and catch a crab and ended up catching three. We were hoping they would fight to the death but the only thing they did was try to crawl up the walls of our bucket to get out. IT was so nice and I am going back the weekend before I go back out the UT and get my knee surgery. Hopefully everything goes well and I am able to be up and about for school to start 4 days later, but we shall see. The next week we got back from the beach all but one person was in our house and it was crazy. I was kicked out of my room and then moved from room to room about three times until I ended up sleeping in my dads office on a mattress on the ground with my sister and my brother. At least this only lasted for about 4 nights....not to bad...It was tonz of fun to have almost everyone home though and we had a great time together. I am way excited to go back out to school to have a social life again and see my girl friends...... not to excited to start school again. once it starts then I will get back into the swing of things and it will all be ok....only 2 and a half weeks left... YES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yellow River Game Ranch



SO when my sister was here we took our nephew and niece to this petting zoo called yellow river game ranch. It was really cool because they had deer and rabbits roaming around coming right up to you and eating out of your hand. This bear just opened up his mouth and stood there while we tried to throw it right into his mouth. It was really cool something that I never knew about. OUr cousins, the Howicks told us about this place. So we meet up with Brittany and her baby. There were so many different animals around like peacock, sheep, goats, donkeys, and so much more. If any of yall come to visit me here in GA, then we will defintately have to go here because it was totally redneck, but way cool at the same time.

Bush Gardens + Sea World Florida



Last week my mom and I had a rode trip down
to Tampa, Florida to visit my sister Kelsey and her husband Pat.
We also went to Bush Gardens Africa and to Sea World. It was so much fun. My sister got a new puppy and we also brought my dog Beau. They were buddies right off the bat and played together all the time. Thursday we went to Bush Gardens, rode on awesome rides like Montu, Kumba, and Sheikra. Sheikra was a 180ft drop at a 90 degree angle in the beginning with tons of twists and loops. It was awesome, but my favorite ride was Montu because it was full of more turns and loops that was better than all the rides. We also went on a sky ride over the park and saw all the animals like giraffes, elephants, hippos, tigers, lions, and so much more. We also went on a safari and got close and personal with some of the animals there. It was a blast, but I think that I wasn't used to the heat and didn't drink near enough water because I totally got sick and dehydrated from lack of water. It was bad so Friday we decided just to go to the beach and save Sea World for Saturday. The beach was beautiful and just layed out all day as well as sitting under the shade to not get to dark. ANyWayS, saturday was excellent and I love sea World. I forgot how awesome and fun it is to watch all of the shows. My favorit was the dolphin show, the picture with all the blue. It was way better than the Shamu one because shamu only came out for about 3 mintues of the 30 minute show. Seeing the dolphins and the whales doing their jumps and tricks with the trainers riding them was really cool and amazing to see. We also went to a show called Odyssea. IT was like a Cirque du Soleil with the asian girls doing weird binds and twists with their bodies as well as trampiz and girls hanging on hoops high above the air. Everything was awesome and it was my favorite day spent in Florida, even though I was still feeling sick. Vacations are always fun and great memories to take with you, but it always feels good to go back home and sleep in your own bed instead of a hotel, or couch, which is what I was on, but it was so fun. Thanks to my mom again for always making moments and vacations worth while. I have always loved them no matter what and I am grateful for that and will definitely take awesome vacations with my own family someday for them to have great memories.

Today during church when I was in gospel doctrine with my mother and I was really hungry because I didn't eat any breakfast because I was to busy making some for my mom...Happy mothers day for all those moms out there...anyways. I looked in my purse to see if I still had candy from the movie and I found tonz of riesen's. They are so good I forgot how scrumptious they were and very addicting. When I ran out of them it was the saddest moment of my life cause I was still starving and wanting more riesen's since there so addicting. I then remembered that Lorina discovered them out at school this year and she became obessed with them. I'm tellin ya to watch out for those succors because they are out to hunt you. Then I remembered sponge bob and patrick my favorite cartoon show and Lorina likes as well. Its so funny and I can never stop laughing....Last night my parents and I went to the Atlanta symphony orchestra concert because there was a grand opening of a new amphitheater in alpharetta....I used to play the violin in middle school, but stopped because I thought it was nerdy...i was really good at it and since seeing august rush and the orchestra I really have wanted to start playing again...so I might get a new violin for my birthday JUNE 6th...o yeah...and there is this girl in my ward here who plays very well...so I might ask her to get me lessons...exciting....i will keep you updated on what really happens...

SO this summer is another fun summer of my nannying for two sweet little girls names Kaitlyn and Jacqueline...yess it was weird at first last summer to say my own name but I got used to it....this will probably be my last summer to sit for them because next summer I need to get a real job its part of my major, landscape management, to work for a landscape company so then I will be able to get better and come to know how to do things through a work experience.... nannying has been way fun that pays really well to get me through my college years so far...but I knew that it wouldn't last forever and I had to get a real job soo....I think that can wait till next summer or maybe winter semester..just need to see how things go at college with grades and things...this summer is the last summer full of going to the pool, movies, out to eat, driving to and from camps or other appointments, and so much more...well see how things go i have only begun and so has the summer..

Oh the beach....how I am longing to go there and I can't wait to go to FLorida in two weeks to visit my sister Kelsey and her husband Pat down in Tamp....I am way excited to get a tan and just to be at the beach...i love the beach all thanks to my parents taking me there every spring break....i was truly spoiled by that and totally miss it.....I will go again to Topsail, NC in July at our friends beach house. ITs BEauTifuL there and I have had some awesome experiences with my family and friends. How i truly miss the waves crashing down into the ocean as I drift into deep sleep, the sand between my toes as I walk up and down the shore, or the sun beating down my face while I make sand castles or just lay out to get a tan. O how excited I am to see the ocean again.....

This is Audrey and I. I love her so much because she is hilarious and is always making me laugh. This was when we went tubbing with our ward before we left. It was really sad because like 2 minutes after we left my buckle on my snow pants broke. We even took a pic, but I dont have that one. I am really going to miss that girl this summer because she is always crazy and come up with great ideas to do like have a MJ party or go to get ice cream at 12 at night or stay up and just talk with everyone else laughing really hard. ITs a really good ab workout you should try it because laughing hard is really fun.
