.:October Fun:.

Lots of fun things happened in October and its been forever since I posted something! My computer was broke and I was without one for three weeks!

For general conference, I went up north and spent the weekend with my family. It was a really good weekend and I loved it, all except for the ear infection and strep throat that I got. I was miserable. It took me a good week and a half to get over it! I loved the parts of General Conference that I got to watch though! (yes, I will admit that I did not watch all of it because I did sleep through some of it). I love going up North. I really can't wait until I can move up there!

Fall break was rather boring. I had to work all of it and didn't really get to do much. Boring, I know. But, IHC does like to control my life sometimes!

Chelsey's birthday was on the 25th and she wanted to go up to Salt Lake and spend the weekend up there. It was a lot of fun! On Saturday we spent the afternoon shopping at Gateway and we went to lunch at the Happy Sumo. I LOVE sushie! It's amazing! :) Anyway, after we got done shopping, we went ice skating, then to a really fun Halloween party! All in all, it was a good weekend being able to go up and hang out with her without having to worry about school or work and also I was able to see my family! What can I say, I love them!

Halloween was a good day too! I spent the afternoon making sugar cookies and i'm really proud of how they turned out! Chelsey and I then got ready and went to a Halloween party that one of her friends was going to and after being there for a little bit, we went to Chili's for dinner and called it a night! Lame, I know but we were tired!

Overall, October turned out to be a good month. I can't believe that its November already and before I know it December will be here! I will say though, I'm so excited for Christmas! Anyway, here are some pictures! Enjoy!

So pretty!

Life in general

I'm really horrible at this whole blogging thing, but I decided that no one hardly ever reads my blog so its okay. Haha. Anyway, life has seemed to have gotten super busy the past little bit. School started back up and so now I am working full time and going to school. On top of that i'm trying to be better at having a social life. It's still a work in progress but I guess in due time, everything works out!

The first few weeks of school always seem to the hardest. That also seems to be the week when everything that can wrong, goes wrong. It has definitely been that way for me the past few weeks. I did okay the actual first week of school, but this second week, oh my gosh. EVERYTHING happened. I am taking anatomy and I feel so lost in that class and the teacher points to something and I have no idea what it is he is pointing too, then I had car problems and didn't have a car for a few days with no way of fixing it myself, then I had friend problems, and boy problems, and ugh. Life just plain sucks sometimes is all I have to say.

Okay, on with that venting session. Lets see here... The weekend right before school started, I got the chance to go up North with all of my roomies from freshman year for Erica's wedding. It was so much fun. Its funny how you realize you miss people after they are gone. I really have learned a lot about life lately, its crazy. Anyway, continuing on. So we went up there for the wedding and four of us met at Zupa's for lunch. I love zupas. It's amazing and my favorite. Anyway, then we went and got some cupcakes, then went shopping. It was fun just to spend the afternoon together and catch up. Later that night we went to Erica's reception and she looked so pretty and so happy. I am so happy for her. They make the cutest couple and I wish them the best of luck through out life.

hmm, I know there is more to say but... it's a Sunday afternoon and i'm tired! So, it's nap time for me! Yes, I love nap time! Haha!

All of us at the wedding

The cute happy couple! So cute!

: .* Summa' Time* . :

I love the 24th of July! I love everything about it! I don't know if it's because my whole life it has been a holiday that is always celebrated or what it is, but it is one of my favorites.

This year, I got to go up and spend an entire week with my family and friends up there. Even though it was a struggle getting up there, (aka, my AC in my car went out) It was a blast! We went to the rodeo this year and I thought that it was a very good one. Needless to say, I also LOVE going to rodeo's. I tend to find to cowboys rather attractive so of course I love going to them. I guess you can say that that's my country side shining through!

The next morning was the actual 24th of July so we got up and went to the parade. I got to go sit out on the road with Kaden so that he could catch the candy. That little boy is so stinkin' cute despite his attitude he's got! He really can be such the sweetest, cutest little boy out there! It was fun watching him wave to the fire trucks and having him tell me all about the tractors.

After the parade, I took Kaden and all of the cousins and we went and got some lunch in the park and then met up with my parents at Canyon view park. I guess that Kaden decided that it was hot and that he needed to go for a swim! Since it was rather hot that day, I decided that I would take Kaden and all the cousins to the swimming pool for the afternoon. It sounded like a great idea at first, then I realized what I was getting myself into.

Sweet little Kaden has a fear of water and freaking out if he can't touch. I can't blame him though, I have the same problem. So him and I stayed at the front of the pool and played in the shallow end while the rest of the boys went and did their own thing. It turned out to be a really fun day and I really enjoyed it.

That night, they were having fireworks in the park. Tyler, Cooper, and I went to the baseball fields to watch them. While we were waiting for them to start, we got into a very intense game of spoons. Yes, spoons can be dangerous! A few people were smacked, but overall, no one was injured! It was so much fun though!

The next day I just spent it at home hanging out with my family. Later on in the after noon, we ended up out by my dad's shop shooting BB guns. Kaden was giving it a shot with his gun and it was so cute to watch him! He even ended up hitting an apple off. Amazingly though, he ended up shooting at the same time I did, but he the apple off. ;) he was so proud that we just let him believe him. I mean, who can argue with a 4 year old?

Also while I was up there, My cousins, Tyler and Cooper, as well as little Kaden, went swimming a lot. I loved going with them! It was seriously a blast! Kaden was so cute and such a sweet little boy. It makes me miss home so much! I just wish that things would work out better and that I could move back home and be closer to all of my family. Hopefully, the next year will go by quickly and I can get back up there! hopefully soon!

Anywho, sorry this was such a long post! There was just a little bit that I had to catch up on!

Driving up with no air conditioning, what a fun drive!

The latest news!

Okay, I have about a half an hour before I have to be at work and I don't really have anything better to do so I thought I would update my blog and tell you all of the not-so-exciting things that have been going on lately!

Lets see here... I guess I will start with fathers day. That weekend, a few of my friends and I went to Salt Lake to Temple Square and to the Gateway mall. It rained on us all day, but we still had a good time! Chelsey and I even took advantage of the rain to have a little bit of fun as you can see below.



Well, as we were eating lunch... my camera fell about a half of an inch and cracked the lcd screen. :( So from this moment on, Until i get my camera back from best buy, there wont be any pictures to share. Terribly sorry.

Anyway, Once I got back to St. George, nothing too exciting has been happening. For the Fourth of July, I was supposed to work. Chelsey and our friend, Chase, were going down to Overton to meet Derrick and watch the fireworks there. Well, at about 4:30, I ended up being put on call. I was pretty sure, however, that I was going to get called on. So, they went off to Overton and I sat home wating for my call to go to work. Ya. The phone call never came. So, my fourth of July was about as uneventful as it could have possibly been. I ended up going to the college parking lot and sitting in my car by myself watching the fireworks. I felt like a major looser. Haha.

So, since there, I really have just been working lots! I can't wait for the 24th of July to come so that I can go up North and have fun with my friends and family! Hopefully I will have my camera back by then so that I can have some pictures to post! Anway, that's all for now! Toodles!

May 2009

So... Since its now July, I thought that I would update this with the things that have been happening since I last updated it! I really am so terrible at this! I will try to be better so much!

My friend Derrick Is from Overton, Nevada. One night we were trying to think of things to do when his dad called and said that he needed him to bring the parking pass back to Overton that was in the car. So we decided to take a little mini Road trip to Overton! It was quite the experience. All in one trip we almost got ran over by a semi truck, Had some scary guys at the local Maverik try to pick up me and Chelsey as Derrick tried to leave us, almost died while 4-wheeling, almost got pulled over, and went to the walmart in Mesquite at 4am just to get donuts. Alot more went on, but that was just the main exciting things that went on!

Recap!

So... I haven't posted anything lately so I thought that I would give a quick update! Nothing too exciting has really happened. I went to Disneyland for a week with my Brother Kyle, his wife Tara and my niece and nephew. It was so much fun! That was the first time that I have ever been to Disneyland (Yes, I know, I am deprived) But I such a fun time! I loved it out there. We spent five days in Anaheim and then spent one day in San Diego. I really liked San Diego for some reason. I don't really know why but I did!

It was my nephew Kaden's 5th birthday on Monday while we were at Disneyland. We went to Goofy's kitchen that night for his birthday dinner and it was the cutest little place to eat! They have different characters that walk around to your tables that come and meet you and you can get their autographs and take pictures with them. He loved it. it definatly is a good place to take your kids to eat when you are there!

This is me and my niece Laitynn at La Jolla beach.I had never been to this beach before, and even though there was not much sand, I still thought it was pretty. The town of La Jolla was a cute little town too! Needless to say, I had aton of fun in California and I already want to go back!
