We've had some birthdays!!

So I finally uploaded my pictures to my computer and realized the many birthdays that have been going on these past couple months. Two of my bestest friends had their birthdays a while back and here are some pictures to prove just how much fun we had :)

For Maren's birthday we started out by going to Spicy Thai (of course) and then proceeded with a little cupcake party, thanks to Jacque for her mad cupcake baking/decorating skills!!


Then a couple weeks later came Brittany's birthday. Because I had a little more time on my hands during her birthday, I made a sign!!! It was so fun and I can't wait for the next birthday so I can make another one!!

I know I'm a little slow at posting these, but happy birthday girlies!!!

They're In!!!!!!

Sometimes, well actually all of the time, I have to remind myself that I'm no longer 18, because that is how old I feel. I don't feel old enough to be grown up and graduating from college, but in fact, that is what I'm doing!! Today I turned in my student teaching applications. I can't believe it. It's official. The girl who everybody still thinks is 18 is soon to be standing in front of high school students teaching....YIKES, I hope they're ready for me. I'm getting excited, but mostly nervous. Luckily I have until the fall to mentally prepare myself :)

I'm just a kid....

I can't help myself when the only reason I want to go to Costco is to buy these little beauties...

I don't know if it's because their so good or the fact that I don't feel guilty eating them because they are labeled as 'crackers.'

Or maybe it's the fact that I'm just a kid at heart. I love animal crackers and am simply

obsessed.

Tonight I went to Costco :)

Mele Kalikimaka, Paige's Wedding, and Happy 2010!!

So I had the chance to accompany mom and dad to Hawaii for Christmas! We decided that while the other kids were at their in-laws for Christmas, we better go somewhere, and where better than Hawaii? There are definitely some perks to being single! We packed up our bags and spend just over a week basking in the sun in Kauai, followed by a quick flight to Honolulu where we stayed on Waikiki Beach. It was amazing to say the least, and here are some pics to prove it.

Thank you mom and dad for such a wonderful Christmas!!!!

Paige got married!!!!!! The day was absolutely perfect!!!

It's 2010.

For NYE I was in Arizona and chose to go to the ASU stake's activity at Gameworks! Luckily all of my girl friends from school were in AZ at the time from the wedding so we got to be together!!! Happy New Years everyone!!!!

so i'm just a little behind.

We surprised Melissa and took her to T.C. Eggingtons for a mini baby shower. She has had her precious baby, Lucy, since then and I am so excited to see her over the break!!!!

Kate was giving high fives after she successfully hit the panata!!

I just couldn't resist this sweet picture of Molly. I think she was mentally preparing for the panata.

The boys playing a little football on Thanksgiving!

Just hanging out with the girls!!!

It was so fun to be home over Thanksgiving and to have the time to spend with family. Just a few more days and I'll be with them again!!!

Just around the corner....

One week from today, just around the corner, I will be basking in the Arizona sun for Thanksgiving break!! It's so weird to me because for some reason I feel like I should be going home for Christmas break. Possibly it's because I have already started listening to Christmas music, or rather because BYU has already decorated for Christmas with trees, decorations, presents, and lights strung on the trees. Regardless of what it feels like, I am so excited for the break! It's been getting colder here and the nice 70 degree weather is sounding very nice to me right now.

Life is good right now....school is pretty busy, but overall, life is good, no complaints!!!!! :)

This is how i feel right now!!

Missing them already!!

Just wanted to say thank you to mom and dad for coming to visit us in Provo this weekend. We loved having you guys here and already miss you. I'm so so so glad Thanksgiving is in a few weeks so in no time at all we'll be in AZ!!!! Thanks for everything and we're so glad you got to come :)
