My Life for the Past Week...ish...




K, so sorry I haven't been keeping up to date on everything that's been going on. So a few Saturdays ago, we had some of our friends come up to Flagstaff to visit us. Thomas, Kathe, Jessica and Trevor came on Saturday. We spent the day with them, and had tons of fun!! We just hung around, and ate, and tried to find a park, and watched a movie, and ate, and had a blast together!!! And then they decided to spend the night (the girls were in one apartment and the boys were in another). And the next morning, MORE FRIENDS CAME!!! On Sunday, Nick, Becky, Chandler, and Jared came and we played more games and ate some more (we couldn't do much cuz it was Sunday). But then we went to the regional Broadcast for church, and had a wonderful spiritual experience. Then we played some more games, and then the sad time came when they all had to leave. I miss them so so much!! and can't wait to see them again!!



This is Aubree and Thomas taking their "engament pictures" It's cute I like it!!








This is me, Kylie, and Jessica at the Union eating our Jamba Juice!! I love them!!!






This is some of us that were there on Sunday before they left! We had such a fun time!!







This is me and Kylie and Trevor in the car!!!






And this is me and my Lovely Amy ACTUALLY SMILING IN A PICTURE!!! I'm so proud of us!!!









Thanks for an Amazing weekend guys!! I love you and miss you!!!












And then yesterday was Veterans Day, so there was NO SCHOOL!!! yay!!! That night, we went with to Sedona with some friends and ate dinner at the Wildflower Bread Company. It was really good!!! I like bread a lot I've decided. Then we walked around for a little bit and looked at the shops. It was really pretty and a really nice night!! Then we went back to good old Flagstaff and got Dairy Queen (even though as we were standing outside while eating it and FREEEZING!!!). But it was really delicous!!! And after Dairy Queen, we went back to some of the boys apartment, and watched a movie. It was one of the old Western, John Wayne Movies. I've never heard about it until that night. It was called Big Jake. It was good!! It was so fun!!! Much better than sitting at home wishing I had a life, like I usually do.

We didn't take very many pictures, but here's one of me, Kylie, and our friend Carissa wearing cool hats we found at one of the stores in Sedona!

And this is me and Carissa again with a random statue of a Cowboy that we saw!




That's all I can think that happened in the past couple of weeks. Other than this, my life has been school, music, church, and more school. That's the glorious life of a college student!!

Sigh...

So... this is me... once again... sitting at home on a Friday night... doing nothing... We did go to the institute activity tonight, but now we are home... being lame... This is a sneak peek into my weekends. I do nothing on Friday night, or watch a movie, and Saturday I clean and do homework, and Saturday night, I do nothing and watch another movie. It's SO much fun! You should all try it!!

And this is a random picture to go with this pathetic post... But it's a really pretty flower that I found on campus!!!

Day of the Dead

So last weekend was Halloween, and the institute had a dance!! So of course we all dressed up (except for Catey of course). I wore one of my family's lovely M&M costumes, Aubree was Belle, Kylie was Batman's biggest fan, Anne was a cat, and Lauri was... we're not really sure, but I think we decided that night that was a rich person. But we had SO much fun getting all dressed up and passing out candy to the few trick-or-treaters we had. And then we made our way to the dance! The theme was haunted prom, so they had it all decorated to fit that. It was pretty cool. And I am proud to say that my roommate and friend Aubree Stradling was awarded Prom Queen that night. The King was our way cool friend Mario, who had on the coolest light up shoes!!! They were such a cute pair! And so we pretty much danced the night away the rest of the night. It was so much fun for my first Halloween away from home!!








This is me having fun with my camera while I was waiting for everyone else to finish getting ready.









And this is all of us all dressed up. Aren't we amazing!!!






And this is us again... being more ourselves than the last picture...




And this is a picture of me and my friend Darrell at the dance. Aubree let him wear her tootsie roll costume, and I was an M&M, so of course, Kylie had to get a picture of us together. And yes, he is eating me. I can now say that a tootsie roll once tried to eat me...
