A Snowman Named Linc.

snow in stg is such a sight for sore eyes! oh what fun it be to have a snow night with the family. we first started the night off with FHE in the hot tub what a grand time with the pure white snowflakes falling lightly onto the tops of our freezing heads while our bodies were warm in the water. then it really started sticking so lar and i had to make a snowman which we ended up calling LINC..cause it looks like dad! haha
^punching the snowflakes...HIGH JA!

^snowlinc and I

^look at my boot haha the snow would not come off!

^snowlinc.

^in the hot tub all toasty warm.

Always a Bridesmaid, Never a Bride.

Bridesmaid..is what i was on December 12, 2008. i was one of six bridesmaids for my really good friend darcy orvin, who is know darcy josie. i do have to say the dresses weren't my fav. at least on me it wasn't but i still had a wonderful time. i had the wrong color of shoes, they were too burgandy rather than pure red, oh well though. her luncheon and reception was beautiful, and i will be attending her West Jordan reception this coming monday which will be just as exciting ats the first one. ^the bridesmaids and the bride..megan reber-kalehua harward-me-darcy josie-anna hone-jordyn hutchinson-olivia bromley.

^anna*darcy*anna

^anna, jordyn, kal

^anna, olivia

^me in the dress...uh i will let you decide haha.

The Backside of the Door.

i believe the pictures speak for themselves.

oh so i have to study.

sadly there are no pictures to correlate with my post..but i am writing this anyways. for the past couple of tests i have gotten pretty low scores, for me at least. i was freakin out about why in the world i would be getting such low scores. so for this last test i decided that i would start a week in advance and see if that actually made a difference. low and behold it did!! i got a 96/100 on it. weird to think that if i actually did studying all week instead of cramming i would get fourteen points higher than before. crazy thought.

lil anna funeral.

this morning i awoke to a terrible sight..lil anna passed away during the night. she was found side up just floating at the top of the bowl. she joined lil dana this afternoon when dana and i gave her a proper burial in our tolit. she is in a better place now, although it is sad to admit. she was a great fish full of life and funness..she will be greatly missed!

^walking to the burial grounds.

^dana will miss her terribly.

^taking lil anna from the kitchen to the burial grounds.

^dana is depressed.
^at the burial grounds.

^saying a few words before the releasing. she was a great fish..although she did poo a lot .

^poor lil anna finally floated to the bottom of the tank.

^goodbye lil anna, you will be sorely missed.

college hanging.

here we are just hanging out with one of our most favoritist persons ever...myles. we decided to do his hair, it was a great experience! haha..myles, dion, ricky, and MJ always come over and hang with us until all hours of the night they are crazy. their mouths are pretty dirty, but they are still our friends :)

^jessica swink, ashley man, me, dana whitaker, katy potter, myles anthony crawford harris.

college halloween.

For halloween, there is a dance that SUU puts on called "the howl" it was pretty darn crazy. pretty much halloween is a time where girls can wear nothing and get away with it as a "costume" i was appaled by what some of the girls were wearing, and some of the boys. it was seriously ridiculous.

i dressed up as snow white, and my roomie dana dressed up as a cowgirl. we just had a blast. ha ha yeah, i had a lot of fun just dancing, but they really did not play that many good songs, i mean some were good, but they were not fast and not slow songs, they were medium and it was hard to get my groove on.

i stayed up until 4 am. yeah it was pretty crazy. i slept in this morning until noon, yeah i do not think that i have actually ever done that. but overall i think my first college halloween was a hit.
^taylor church, me, dana, michael scott.

^sue martin, ashley kohler, me, dana.

sue martin, dana, me, tyra simmons.

^me, dana.

^dana, me, yes we did look pretty good!

first snow of the season.

today it snowed for the first time this season. i cant believe how small the fall season is here in Cedar City. i am so use to having a long fall season in STG. but i am super excited for the snow, because i have never lived anywhere where there has been snow that has stuck to the ground for more than a day. it was like a blizzard and dana and i could not resist the urge to go and take pictures. i couldnt stay out too long because i have been sick all this weekend and i need to get better before next wednesday because my family is taking a trip to Chicago, Illinois.
^Dana & i just hangin in the snow.
^snow billowing towards the camera.
^dana in the snow.
^me in the snow...i am going to freeze this winter. why? well that is my heaviest coat...yeah its going to be a cold one. i need to buy some REAL winter clothing. in STG i would wear flip flops all winter long and have no problem with that. i guess i cant be doing that anymore :(

friday craziness.

oh what a great start to the weekend...one (sarcastic) i am sick today..i started getting sick yesterday, but it got worse today, and i am going to Chicago next week so i definately need to get better. my spirits were lifted up when i got to see two of my greatest frens ever..my cousin hayley, and my friend darcy..and her newly fiance of only less than 24 hours, jesse. yes..she is getting married in december just keep it on the DL..ha

i spent my lunch time with hayley. we went to the Pastry Pub. it was actually pretty darn good if you ask me. i went with hayley, aunt shauna, clint, hannah, and canyon. it was nice to see them all..my relatives.

here are some pictures of the day..pardon my attire, i am sick you know. but man i look HORRIBLE. so, sorry.
^Jesse, Darcy, Me.

^Me, Hayley

tests..WOOT WOOT.

i took my human development test that i was totally freaked out about. i thought i was going to fail or something. when i got done with the test i was really in a panic because it was hard and i guessed on a bunch, or so i thought i guessed. but when i checked to see what i got on the test i actually got 98/100!!!!!!! yeah i know i know!! i was freakin out! but it was silent freakin out because i was in the library studying. i wish i could have seen my face because it felt funny looking! oh man what a great start to a week.

home again home again jiggety jig.

i went home this weekend to watch general conference with my fam. and to also work at the marathon expo for my uncles running store. i had a blast it was just so relaxing to go home and have absolutely no plans and just to go with the flow of things.

i went shopping with lar and i got some great deals..seriously..i am going to amaze the college world! ha. now i am home at my college apartment just sitting around waiting for my human development test to take place tomorrow morning at 10:00 i am super nervous because i want to better than my last test of, sadly, 86/100..hopefully i get a better better score!!!!!

Logan, Utah.

This weekend i had the opportunity to go up to Logan, Utah to meet Dana's family and friends. i had a fabulous time! i had never been to Logan before so it was just a wonderour adventure. the valley is just gorgeous, but they said that the winter is just brutal, so i am not sure if i would want to live there, but it is gorgeous!! i had fun meeting all of their friends and i went to my very first ice hockey game. it was USU V BYU and USU actually won...8-5 it was weird i thought BYU won everything, but oh well.

we had a nice long 4.5 hour drive home on sunday. we got home around 12:30 am and i fell asleep at 1am. i was so dang tired that i slept in until 7:30 and i had class at 8..it was a pretty funny site to tell you the truth.

^sue face and I. I am pulling the "chad"
^first time to the logan temple. what was weird was they had the grounds all locked up. i have never seen that before in my lifetime. plus i had never seen a stone temple before so it was a whole new experience. me, dana, kelina (dana's BFF)
^at the ice hockey game...proof that i actually went. ceirra (sue BFF), sue, me
^the Logan Temple.
^on our way home from Logan...man we all look so dang fresh.

^the Logan valley.
