Ugly Sweater Party

Yes. i went to one.

Story behind finding the PERFECT ugly sweater:
G-Pa: "Where are you going?"
Me: "oh, i'm going to go to DI with my friend to look for an ugly sweater."
G-Pa: "Oh, Wait. Don't Bother! I've got an ugly sweater you can use!"
Me: "uh...... ok?!"
This is what he gave me:

This is the party:

Jess and I just chillin.

Pick a lane... any lane.

So this is how i feel this week: Pick a lane, any lane. (mainly the sleep deprived one... AND THE STRESSED out One... never mind. i'm all 3.) Weekends and holidays are keeping me going this week. In 5 days i'll be on my way to california, and i'm so excited. I just need to finish this week, and i'll be home free (literally)!
This is also something i currently live by. Last night i had a huge bowl of ice cream to "celebrate a few hours early" haha! that's not even true. it was just my excuse.
Well, here's to a better tomorrow. May they be good and always sunny. (well, in my mind at least, the snow here kinda causes problems when it comes to that). Anyway, thank you to my friends and family that have been such a support this past little while. I love you guys! and to my family-SEE YOU IN 5 DAYS!!!!
p.s. i did something fun to my hair, so i'll post a picture maybe soon.

so i figured out where my money goes...

So I’ve figured out where my money goes……….

FOOD.I’m pretty sure I have been out to eat so much in the last little bit. Now here’s the thing. It’s not necessarily a money problem.. it’s a problem with the fact that that now when I go out to eat, I am never satisfied because everything at each restaurant tastes the same… Applebees-ALL the SAME. Costa vida- (delicious) but still the same. Iggy’s-same. Brick oven (delicious) but same.
So ANYWAY… last week I went to brick oven for lunch with my friend Mary, came home and ate dinner with my gpa, then went to Iggy’s and got a little snack and smoothie for my friend’s birthday, and THEN went to applebee’s an hour later and had spin-dip and chips.. THREE times in ONE AFTERNOON!! (/evening) wow. Kinda sick right??? Yes. so now not only am I a fat kid, but when I go out to eat it takes me a year and a half to order because I’m trying to find something different that is going to taste good. So here are some pictures from after the birthday party (dinner at iggys) and then the following Sunday when we gave our friend his present. ☺

Benson and Gunther the Gopher (his present)

Jess and I after dinner..

Dieter F. Utchdorf spoke at a CES fireside and jess and i had like 6th row seats... it was awesome!!! (this is a picture of him talking to his wife before the song i think..)

straggler photo: This is what i look like after i clean my room... precious eh?

anyway... fun week. thanks friends. =]

I'm famous... kinda.

1. I'm famous...

WATCH THE VIDEO... (i'm the first one on the interview) Probably the ugliest day possible to take a video of me, but my mom has taught me well.

2. it's my birthday this month.. (hence the arrival of the birthday background) yes, i'm turning 21... not really exciting.. but kinda (b/c i'm a big kid now) that's all. any ideas for a birthday celebration (when you're mormon and 21 it's not quite as thrilling) =]

weird holiday... halloween.

I never really like Halloween… (well, my mom might beg to differ) but ever since I ‘ve grown out of trick-or-treating, it hasn’t been much fun… but that’s ok. because this year, despite my dislike for Halloween, I dressed up and played with my friend.. it was a fun night/week. For FHE we went to the corn maze, and then we had our ward party and we burned pumpkins and we just had a fun time… so here are the photos.. ☺ Happy Halloween (a week late)..

Mary, Me, Jess, Bitter, and Cam watching Tricia burn the pumpkins.

Tricia and I ... She's my favorite (most of the time).

Jessica's pumpkin BURNIN' :)

BEST FHE GROUP EVER at the Pumpkin Patch/CornMaze.
