Happy Thanksgiving!!

I really think that Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday! So much family time! So much fun! Starts with some cooking and parade watching, then a little cleaning before the company comes, and then some football watching, then DINNER EATING, then game playing, pie eating, movie going, and home for some more pie, and more games, and tv!

Thats basically my Thanksgiving in a nutshell! haha! This year for a movie, I wanted to see A Christmas Carol, I thought that would be good to see on Thanksgiving day, but instead we saw The Blind Side, which was So Crazy Good!!! I loved it! I will totally be buying that one when it comes out, it is so amazing!

I am so thankful for my family and the people in my life! I am so blessed! I have loved being home for the my break, but I think I am just ready to be in Rexburg and finish of the semester, I am so close, I can feel it!

Hope everyone had a fantastic holiday! Have fun shopping tomorrow everyone! I know I will!!!

Randomness

I don't feel like anything crazy exciting is worth talking about, so I haven't posted in a while. But I will just fill you in really quick with my life.

About a month ago I went to Utah and saw some friends and had fun with my FHE sisters!

On Saturday I am going to Utah again, meeting up with my daddy, and going to see the BYU Air Force game! I'm not sure who I will go for, since I technically am BYU student, (BYU-I BABY!) But I am also an air force brat, born and raised! haha. So I'm excited for that!

Then on Sunday I will be flying home to sunny AZ! Actually Rexburg has had beautiful weather the past couple of days, I'm sad to be leaving when its so nice. Its sunny today, and we walked around town without even a sweatshirt on, just along sleeve shirt, its like 50*. I love it!!!

Today I got a calculus test back, I got a 97%!!!

I also took a health test today and I am pretty sure I did awesome! After that test I was saying all sorts of thank-you prayers for helping me remember everything, and for being at this school, and for the weather... its been a great day!!!

This week I skipped my first class as a college student. I slept in. My roommates came in and i woke up all confused, then I looked at the clock, I completely missed my first class and my 2nd one started in 20 minutes. It was pretty crazy!!!

Also this week has been really good roommate wise. I am really loving them, all of them, and things are going very smoothly!

So ya, that was just a little randomness about whats going on. I will try to be better, but I doubt that I will be!

Love ya!

Roomate Bonding Time!!!

Tonight after FHE I had what I thought was a ton of homework to do. It really didn't turn out being all that much. I went to my bedroom just to grab my calculator for a math thing, and I noticed that it was just me and Katie W. in the apartment. Katie K and Kalie were out and about... so I went and talked to Katie just for a sec. Well that sec turned into like 2 hours. We talked about school, high school, elementary, our first bad grades, then went on to memories of grandparents and family, parents and siblings, we talked about boys (duh) and dumb girls when they are around boys! haha! It was so much fun! We just sat on her bed and talked forever! Now we are both in the living room, she is reading the Odessey, and I should be reading the scriputres, but I will get to them! haha! Anyway, I just love her, and my other roomates! So blessed to have her in my life, she is so much like me, we crack each other up how similar we are! So ya, love love love her!

P.S. Random Story: Today my friend Julia told me how she had to "observe" someone in the MC and then go and interview them about what they observed. Today while I was eating lunch at the MC, someone came to me and was like, this may be weird... and I laughed... "Have you been observing me?" I asked, and they were like, "Ya, for my English project. can I interview you?" So the interview was like, do you like musicals, since I was wearing a Wicked sweatshirt! She asked if I liked to travel, since I was telling my friend about the trip I am taking this weekend, and then she just said I seem very friendly and nice. It was so random but way funny, and now she has to write a 2 page paper, on me! How weird is that! lol! But ya, just funny story!

Love ya!

New CD!!!

So you all know how obsessed I am... On October 13th David Archuleta's 2nd CD came out! Its a christmas album! WOOHOO!!! So I got up super early that day and me and my bff Kailey Coons went to breakfast and then Wal*Mart before our classes. Unfortunatly they did not have it then, and they weren't gonna get it until like 9 in the morning. So I went to my classes, and then came right home and hurried off to WalMart. On my way out I saw my friend Alex and told her I was going to get the CD, so she came with me! Kailey was still in class, and I felt bad leaving her, but she said it was ok. So I went to WalMart and hurried to the back and then started to run when I actually saw it! SO HAPPY!!! Then I got it and hurried home, becasue it was devotional, and Elder Oaks was talking. It was so good! And then I came home and put the CD on my iPod and pretty much have been listening to it non stop! WOOHOOO!!!

Hair color!

So last Friday me and my roomate went to Walgreens and got hair dye and did our hair! I wanted mine to be blonder, so I got a blonder box of hair color, but I was nerous it would be way too blonde, so I didn't use the whole bottle, and I didn't leave it in as long... but anyway, its kinda hard to tell in the pictures, but here are before and afters! :)

So ya, I know I look like a dork, I hate just taking pics of me, but I wanted to see the difference. :) Just thought I would show ya'll!

What is this white stuff....

Im so mad I didn't get any pictures today, but it totally snowed! First snow of the season. I woke up and looked over to see if my roomie was awake, and while I looked over I saw something white outside the window, so I jumped out of bed and looked out the front. It was totally snowing. It snowed continually all morning and stopped during lunch. Then the sun came out and totally melted it all, so I was too late to get pictures. It was unlike anything in Arizona. Ok, I am being overdramatic, I have lived in snow in Massachutes, and I have been in snow all the time in Utah for our skiing vacation, but I am not used to living in it. I had to go to the store today, but waited until all the snow was gone, heck, I don't know how to drive in snow. The guys in my math class said when you step on the brake, you car doesn't stop... SCARY! Anyway, it shouldn't snow for a while now, it was just a random snowy day. The rest of the week should be perfect, partly cloudy with a high of 5o. WHO AM I? I can't believe I just said partly cloudy was a perfect week, this time last year I would have said the perfect weather was a cloudless blue sky day about 90 degrees. But here, I am liking the cold! I like the new clothes I wear here that I would never wear in AZ. I got a really big jacket, and a scarf, and boots! Its so much fun! So ya, next time it snows I will get pictures right away! :)
