Us again!!

Em and Me at our Ward Halloween Party!

This last weekend, Mom was able to come and stay with me for Parent's Weekend at BYU. I was so happy that she could come!!! We did so much stuff. We were able to go to Dallin's wedding on Friday (which means I got to skip work and class) and Elder Bednar sealed them, how exciting!! I got to sit near him at the luncheon too, it was pretty cool!! That night Jordan, Mom and me went to the Blue-au and got to see Living Legends perform and eat pretty good food. On Saturday Mom had the graciousness to wake me up absurdly early to run to the store and then to high-tail it up to the Tailgate Party with Vocal Point, donuts and hot chocolate. Then we went to the game and although we won, it was still disappointing! After that, since Mom and Jordan love Italian so much, we went to Gloria's Little Italy and they absolutely loved it!! It is so good!! We played games that night with my roommates, Sister Mitchell and Melissa's finacee, Justin. It was a lot of fun playing Taboo and getting to know everyone. On Sunday we went to my ward and then went to Aunt Colleen's and played with the kids. The next morning Mom had to go, and I was sad to have her leave, although I do love having my bed to myself again. Thanks Mom for coming!!! I love you!!!!

Happy Halloween!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

My FHE group: Me, Russ, Dan, Abbie, Em, Quin
Me as an Evil Fairy!!
Em as a Gypsy!Trying to be serious (like usual) without it working (like usual).

We knew that it was a little early to start dressing up for Halloween, but we have so many other Halloween ideas, that it was the only time that it worked. So, here we are, all crazy like we normally are, and having a blast!! We played Halloween Bingo, also known as Scary, and we made Halloween sugar cookies and decorated them and watched Hocus Pocus. I forgot how much I LOVE that movie! Anyways, as you can see, life is lots of fun, and I'm trying to make the most of it. I hope that you all like my costume as an Evil Fairy. I was going to go with a Good Fairy, but I have more black then white, so it's just the way it turned out. And don't you just love my hair!! I don't think I have ever had so much hairspray in it in my life, but it worked! I wanted it as poofy and crazy as possible. Man, I love Halloween!!

Finally something!!

Well, I finally have something to write about on my blog!! I was able to go to the Conference Center this last weekend for Conference with my friends from my ward. I had an amazing time and I feel so spiritually uplifted. I absolutely love the gospel and how it changes my life!! It was truly a wonderful Conference, I'll admit I was crying most of the time. Then a few weeks ago was my friend, Craig's, birthday, so Emily and I made him some cupcakes and apparently they were pretty good. We were too full on icing to actually eat one!! Then last night was the second day of Homecoming Week for BYU, so we went and hiked the Y. I hate that hike, but I made it to the top, so that's all that counts and we were able to light the Y. Overall, I've been having a great time at college, and the schooling isn't going too bad either. I'm actually doing really well, so let's hope that it keeps up!!
