~WOAH! Way too long!~

Well. . . My Plan for blogging everyday for something I am thankful for failed miserably. . .Not that its hard to be thankful for something different everyday, I'm just lazy:-/ So I'll try again next New Years! Any who I'll just fill you in on what has been going on since last time I blogged!
Nothing too new has been going on. Other than we have way too much fun! Me, Aimee, and Forrest are the best of friends and I don't know what i would do without them, we do everything together. The new semester has started and so far so good:) I'm taking a swimming and golf class this semester so that's exciting because my last semester was hard! But good news I passed all my classes last semester haha there were a few that i was really worried about haha. Me and my friends really haven't gone on any spontaneous trips lately but we do crazy things so that compensates for it haha. We've started doing campfires, picnics, flying kites, and just little last minute trips to Idaho Falls (close places). BUT. . .this last weekend a bunch of us went to Yellowstone National Park. It was fun. It is such a beautiful place. I couldn't get enough of the beautiful scenery. Anyways, that's about all that's been going in my crazy, beautiful life! I'm going home this next weekend to see family so I can't wait for that!  






 Isn't this picture BEAUTIFUL?!

Everyone have a fabulous Sunday night!

Almost One Month Later!

Well, so much for trying to do better at saying what I am thankful for everyday! I was even gonna start really good at the beginning of February. But I didn't realize it was February till I started getting invited to Valentine’s Day parties haha So really all I'm trying to tell you is that I get kinda busy and forget to do things, including some of my homework! :-/ So I'll try and catch you up on some of the really important stuff that has happened in the past month.

School has been going really good, I love it actually. When I made the decision to go there I didn't realize that it would be the best decision I have made in my life so far. I have made some really good friends and my roommates are great. Shout out to Aimee Bean and Forrest Manning for doing everything together haha almost too much. We basically live at Forrest’s house. :]

Classes have been going good, but there for awhile I didn't know if I was gonna be able to do it. But I decided to suck it up and tell myself that this wasn't going to last forever and that I could do it. So I did. I've started having a better attitude about it and I can tell a huge difference. Good thing that I made this decision before midterms because this last week honestly kicked my butt! 6 tests last week. . . .not cool!

At the beginning of February I got really sick. I could hardly talk, I had the worst cough and runny nose, and I got cold sores on my eyelid. Not fun at all. I also had a huge anatomy exam and I was so stressed out. I went to the doctor on campus TWICE and they couldn't help me either time! So i decided to ask my friends Mike and Logan to give me a priesthood blessing and it was the sweetest blessing. I love the Priesthood and don't know what I would do with it in my life. I am so grateful for worthy boys that were able to give it to me right when I needed it. Of course it helped and of course I did better on my exam than i had ever hoped for.

Me, Aimee, and Forrest have definitely had some adventures since the last time I have been on. On a Friday night we decided to go to Wal Mart at one in the morning in Idaho Falls to search the $5 movie bins. Since Rexburg doesn't have a Super Wal Mart we thought Idaho Falls would have the movie we were looking for! Of course they did! We left Wal Mart with some pretty good steals! I got the movie i was looking for and Forrest got Monopoly for cheaper than the Rexburg Wal Mart! Look at us bargain shoppers:] Then we decided to go get breakfast at Sharri's and by now it was 2:30 haha. So we finally made it home and we told each other we planned to sleep in and that we were going to have a movie day all day Saturday. But that didn't go as we planned! We up and left Rexburg to go to Provo Utah to take some girls to a dance competition. We drove all that way starting at one in the afternoon. We got there by five, dropped the girls off and went to hang out with my sister, brother in law, and my adorable nephew. We had a great time. The girls finally called us at 10 P.M. telling us they were done. So we went to pick them up. We knew we had a long drive/night ahead of us. We ended up getting home at 3:30 and man were we tired! CRAP!!!! We forgot our keys!!!!!! What are we going to do?! Yes me and Aimee had forgotten our house keys and we had to sleep in Forrest’s car. All I have to say is that was one cold night! I will never forget my keys again! BHAHA i still can't believe we slept in a car! But anyways, we have had many adventures but those ones are probably our most fun, most memorable ones:]

Last weekend and this weekend I have spent it with my family and have had so much fun! I love my family and would not trade them for the world. I love them all so much. I love my Niece and nephew and love how much joy they bring into this family.

Any who, I will TRY and be better at blogging but don't count on it haha.

Everyone have a great rest of your Sunday!

Snow Snow Snow

Well ladies and gentlemen, Rexburg now officially has snow on the ground! Its bitter sweet. I love the snow but I do not like driving in it. Especially because to get to my house I have to go down the big hill here :-/ Me and my roommates and Forrest built a snowman today. Well really just my roommates and Forrest, but I helped destroy it. It was kind of a sad looking snowman to be honest hahaha. But it makes for good memories right?
Well this week was SUPER busy! So glad tomorrow is Friday. I forgot how hard it is to have a social life while having a school life.
Monday: Lots of homework
 Tuesday: Classes, science group meeting, listening to Elder L. Tom Perry (SO AWESOME!) my tutor group met, took a test after that, went to Zumba with Aimee, and then went and hung out with Forrest and watched a movie
Wednesday: A FULL load of classes and labs, homework, then a movie in the movie theater in our lounge.
Thursday: Took a much needed nap! homework, then another movie tonight (yeah we like movies here haha) then bed!
This getting to bed early thing is not working out for me!
Thankful Post #12


Today I am thankful for our brain and how it works. In my Anatomy class we are now learning every part in the skull and it is so awesome. Its amazing how our brain/skull works and all the parts that is has. You can not tell me that our Heavenly Father had nothing to do with that! Any who I know I'm a nerd but this kind of stuff really fascinates me haha.
Well i am off to another movie! Have a fab night!

A Clean Room

Oh today was such a lazy day! It was much needed, we partied too hard last night ;) haha. We went to Applebees, a dance, and then hung out at some friends house. Today I had the ambition to REALLY clean my room. So I did. Only because Wal mart FINALLY got in the command hall hangers so i could hang everything up. It was a happy day:)
Thankful post #11

FHE

Ya know. . . I'm really bad at this! Haley is kicking my butt at this thankful thing. I'll try to get better! Well this week has been quite eventful. Me and Carrie drove back to Rexburg from our long wonderful weekend, and we made it back safe and sound. As soon as I got back me and my roommates headed to FHE to meet our family. The boys planned for us to have a "breakfast potluck". I made yummy banana bread, Amiee made the eggs, and Phil made the wonderful stuffed french toasts, thanks Phil! :) My FHE family is great, and yes we play with face cards at BYU and on a FHE night. . .we bad hehehe Tuesday we had a couple of them over and we played some more card games haha. Wednesday me and my roommate went to the gym. I got SO lost! I searched for this dang gym for probably 15 minutes. Finally I gave up and decided to ask a teacher where it was. She kindly showed me the way:)  Tonight is Thursday, and I got a NICE 2 hour nap! Sure I won't be able to sleep tonight, but it was a dang good nap!! We also went to a spinning class and HOLY COW that kicked my butt! I'm starting my Pre-training for my epic training, it makes sense ok? Don't judge me haha. Now I'm sitting here blogging counting down the hours for when it is finally Friday. I'm so ready for the weekend!
Thankful Post #10
Today I am thankful for my FHE brothers. They are so cool and chill, and we have way too much fun with them. I know one of them is really good at Anatomy so I'm gonna have to get to know him better because for all of you that want to know, I suck at anatomy haha any who I look forward to many for FHE nights with them.
Happy almost weekend!

Today I am thankful for Sunday naps. I was feelin pretty tired after lunch (probably because I stayed up till three watching One Tree Hill :] ) so I thought that I would go lay down to see if I could get a nap in. i tried my room but it was way too cold, so I went downstairs by the nice warm fire, and passed out! Oh it was very lovely :) haha Now I won't be able to sleep tonight but thats ok, leaves time for me to watch more One Tree Hill!!

Home Sweet Home

Thankful Post #8
Today I am so thankful that I have a home with loving parents to come home to. Yes college is still going good, i'm just glad that I have a place to call home and that I love coming to. Another reason I love coming home is because my mother is the greatest cook ever! Yes we're having her homemade pizza tonight and I cannot wait! :D I hope I don't have a hard time after this long weekend going back to Rexburg haha
Have a great Saturday
