Games solve boredom.

Here's my new exciting fun game:

Directions: Jump off something into a luvsac. Yell out either stomach, feet, or butt, and  land on that. Definitely entertained me and Becks for the night. Whats up.

A dream come true.

Pretty sure Caisie and I just discovered our new favorite store. Not only can you buy groceries, but you can buy everything and anything that you’d ever want! Smith’s marketplace people. Go there! They have EVERYTHING. Groceries, clothes, creepy socks, towels in every color, dog/cat food and supplies, home décor, sweet vacuums, and my all time favorite: nail polish. But we’re not talking like normal grocery stock style. They have billions of every color, and every shade that you could ever think of! I about died when I saw this isle. Oh and PS pretty sure there were two of these isles. So as soon as I saw the nail polishes I ran over, sat my butt down, and spent an hour looking at all the colors trying to decide which ones I wanted to blow my money on. It was a dream come true, I was in paradise.

See yuh year twenty ten.

I know it's a little early, but we're in the month of December and I have been thinking about everything that I have done this year. Here are my top 10 memories from this year...not ranked in any particular order.

Top ten memories from 2010

1.        Coming home from Logan and hugging my parents. They were my support system when college got stressful. I would also get sent back with bags full of food every time I came home. Thanks for everything mom and dad!

2.       This summer I rekindled a long lost friendship with  Katie Best. We became friends in first grade of elementary school and re-lived a lot of our old memories. We played almost every day in the summer and had so many fun adventures together.

3.       My friends and I rented beach cruiser bikes and cruised around Logan. We went shopping up and down Main Street and ended by treating ourselves to some nice chocolate shakes. Apparently seeing four girls riding bikes in a single file line is entertaining. We made a lot of people smile.

4.      Sledding down Old Main hill in Logan with my roommate Caisie Peterson and getting 20 pounds of snow to the face.

5.       Sitting outside on the grass loving life with my dog Emi. We lost her this summer to cancer. She was my best friend and always sat with me when I needed it. I miss you Emi!

6.       Misa, Mari, Ryan, Mo, Sachi and I (known as the "cuzzins") played in the beautiful land of Japan. Then to end the trip we flew to Hawaii and spent the day at the beach for a few hours. Love the benefits

of mothers working for Delta J

7.        I was able to send off my best friend on a mission to Seattle Washington. Seattle is going to love him. See you in two Brock.

8.       Going on a drive with my two best friends on a bad day, windows down, rain pouring in the car, singing along to good music and enjoying each other’s company.

9.       Staying on a three story houseboat in Lake Powell with ten of my friends. We slept under the stars, used the moon as a night light, and talked about everything we could think of until we all fell asleep.

10.    Laughing for hours on end about nothing with my three sisters.

Wow. I feel like I have learned so much from the year 2010! I am who I am today because of the people that have helped shape my life. Every single person that has came into my life has influenced me whether it was a neighbor, family member, roommate, boyfriend, or best friend. I don't think anyone will ever know how much they do for me. So I'd like to thank those people in my life that have helped me become who I am today. This year was full of so many memories that I'll never forget.

'Tis the Season.

Christmas time is here!

I. Love. Christmas.

That's about all I can say right now. So busy during dead week just studying for finals and all of that gross stuff. I cannot wait till I can wake up and realize that I have all the time in the world to do my favorite things:

-be with my family
-sit by the fire
-watch Christmas movies
-laugh and play with my sisters for hours
-jam out to Christmas tunes
-drink yummy hot chocolate
-have grandma's famous sprite/pineapple slushie drink
-eat lots of candy and not feel guilty about it
-making toffee and caramels
-play in the snow
-go sledding
-go to temple square to see the beautiful lights
-think about Christ and what he has done for me

{{...Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays...}}



"Thankful"....a little late :)

Just sum great lyrics to brighten your day:

"Somedays we forget
To look around us
Somedays we can't see
The joy that surrounds us
So caught up inside ourselves
We take when we should give.

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be.
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see.
It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for.

Look beyond ourselves
There's so much sorrow
It's way too late to say
I'll cry tomorrow
Each of us must find our truth
It's so long overdue

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And every day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for.

Even with our differences
There is a place we're all connected
Each of us can find each other's light

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us to be the change
And even though this world needs so much more

There's so much to be thankful for"

...This song is one of my new favorites. Really helps me think about the things that are the most important in my life.

"Mommy likiee"

Watching the jazz game can get pretty crazy. Last night, we watched the game at Payden's house which PS was the cuttest house that I have ever seen! His mom graduated from Utah State in Interior design so their house was unbelievable. Darling house. Anyways so the saying of the month has been "Daddy like" and so we all asked Sky to say it just once. Well the next thing we know, we hear Sky go, "....mommy likie!" We all just looked at eachother and busted up! Mommy likiee? Really Sky. Gotta love the kid.

Besides the fact that we lost, last night was a blast! We went to Chick-fil-A to get peppermint shakes that were soo yummy. My only regret is that I went to town on that thing. Yes, I was drinking and driving and quickly learned to never drink and drive ever again because I drank way too much. I just kept drinking that thing. I felt so sick afterwards....but that wont stop me from getting another one!

 

                                                                                                                                     

 

Spoon me...."daddy like"

I think that the people who started spoon me put some secret drug that I am officially addicted to in their frozen yogurt because I can't get enough of it. I'm always craving it! So yesterday, instead of getting a taco at Taco tues, I got a spoon me. I had the new pomegranate flavor and decided that you can just never go wrong with the natural and acai mix. Right as we were walking out, becca threw her Cafe rio cup away but definitely missed...oopsie. So she decides to try and scoop up the ice with the cup and straw. Nice becks.

                                                     I. Love. Spoon me!
