I am not the norm....

So everyone is NOT excited to go back to school this week but I can't seem to have it come any sooner--I wish I had started today! Ok so I am weird and enjoy school (for the most part) there is just something about walking around campus in the fall that makes me feel like and adult and that I am doing something with my life...I LOVE it!! I can't wait for a routine, I do so much better when I have a schedule to follow. Cynthia says she is going to tease me in a few weeks about how excited I have been for school to start when I am the one wanting to sluff class and go to a movie, well I can't help feeling spring fever in October ;) Another reason I can not wait for school to start cuz with it comes institute, this semester I have three institute class and I am on the lunch committee! It is going to be fantastic. Tuesdays are going to be my favorite day, I will have Old Testament with Brother Rappleye (my favorite) at 9am, Tuesday Devotional at 10am and Doctrines of the Gospel at 7pm--its going to be amazing to feel the spirit and go to class learning about the Gospel it makes me want to leave for my mission today!! I went to a fireside last night and the spirit was so strong, it was wonderful knowing that I am on the right path in my life. As you can see I am pretty happy to be going back to WSU, yes it does suck sometimes but overall I enjoy my time there, I strongly believe it is only as good as you make it. So here's to higher education and spiritual exhalation!

JACKIE IS ENGAGED!

Yes I know shocking right?! But everyone knew it was coming the way those two are always together :) even little Braxton and Olivia wanted Doug as an uncle! He asked her to marry him up in Park City this past weekend, I am so excited for the both of them! Of course I am a little sad cuz this means I am not the number one person in her life, but times change and we just have to change with them. Now we are wedding planning and trying to find a time between me going on my mission, doug leaving for Iraq and Cori and Dustin leaving for Italy! Crazy times are sure to come :) but I know it will be a blast! Love you bothe so much kiss kiss

Last Comic Standing


Ok so me and Jackie absolutely love Marcus!! We first heard him at Wiseguys about two years ago and have gone to see him countless times. This picture was taken on his last show at the comedy club before he went on to big and better things...like last comic standing! Well if anyone watched the show on NBC knows that he took second place....how cool is that! I was really happy with the person that won so it is all good that he was runner up.

Face Lift

So I was totally done with the boring look of my blog, so I decided to give it a face lift and an hour later I finally have a finished project! I still could not figure out how to change the color of my playlist box but oh well for now this will have to do! I also could not get Carli's blog to add to my friend list--another time and place cuz I am done starring at this screen ;)

Best Friends


Here is me and Thayne at Farr Better Ice Cream in Ogden on Friday the 13th in June. It was so much fun, we decided to pick each others ice cream flavors, I went with Tin Roof Sundae (a very safe choice I thought) for him and he chose Fire Spit for me! Haha it turned out to be cinnamon! It was actually pretty good :) After that we went for a walk at the park by the Dinosaur Park, it was a fantastic Friday the 13th! For those of you wondering we are just friends for now nothing serious.

Good Things Utah



It was so much fun to see Carli on Good Things Utah! She did really great, it comes so natually to her :) I have never been to a live tapping of a show it was interesting---the commericials go by so much faster watching them there than at home. I really liked it, it was a lot of fun, the Good things Utah girls are super nice, Reagan is my favorite and I was super excited to sit next to her :)

New Car




So I have made a car purchase, Yeah!! I bought a Saturn Ion, it is super cute :) I was so done looking, car shopping is not my favorite thing to do, so me and my mom went to Kapp Auto Sales where I had found my first car and there it was! It has everything I wanted: automatic windows and locks, a sun roof, 6 disc CD changer and suicide doors! But I did have some problems the first day, I bought it home and the horn doesn't work! How could I have missed that, I don't know, so me and Thayne drove back up to the dealership. They took out a horn from another Saturn and put it in my car, free and clear....oh no! On the way home I run over a horse shoe nail and my back tire is going flat very fast so back up to the dealership we go. There they tell me that Les Schwab will fix it for free, oh well they are closed and so is Big O Tires so finally we found a Firestone tire and they are very helpful and fix it after they had been closed for 10 minutes. The funny thing was when the mechanic said welcome to your first auto repair and I started to laugh and said well technically it is the second!
