Catch-up!

Hey everyone,

I did some re-arranging and caught up as much as I could with posts (minus Lanae's wedding - remember after Nov. 7 I can). There is more than 1 post that I did...the first one is titled "Lanae's Bridal Shower" so you won't miss any. Thanks guys!

Winter :/

So as you can see, I changed the look of the blog and updated a lot of stuff...I changed the background because it's officially winter. It is freezing, windy, and even snow has arrived. I'm not very excited for the snow...but for the season! I dug out my winter clothes last night which is a piece of good news because I love wearing layers and my warm clothes are by far my favorite!

My Internship!

So I have very exciting news!!!


I've been accepted into Disney's College Program! Next semester, instead of taking classes in the freezing Utah winter, I will be working at Disneyworld!


Did I mention that is in Orlando, FLORIDA?!?!?!?! I'm so excited!

I'm so excited for this opportunity. I'm nervous but excited! I start Jan. 11 - May 14 and my mom and I will be road-tripping out there so I can have my car. :)

Becky's Birthday

My sister-in-law's birthday was in the beginning part of the month and it was a day of celebration! We went to Tucanos (seriously THE BEST place ever! Well next to Training Table and Carrabbas and...) for lunch and saw the 3-D double feature of Toy Story. It was so good! I forgot how much I liked that movie. Well below are pictures from morning and lunch:



Salt Lake Fun

About a month ago, my friend Maddi went to see our other friend, Rachel, in Salt Lake. We all knew each other when we were living in Arizona. We were all in the same ward when we were 12 then I moved and then Rachel. Maddi and Rachel stayed in touch but I reconnected this year. It's been fun to catch up with old friends.

Anyways, Maddi and I drove to Rachel's house where we made and ate dinner with her roommate. It was so much fun and the first real meal I've had in awhile. We later spent the night touring Temple Square. We tried taking pictures (boy! was that an adventure) but one turned out at least which is posted below.

Well we did have a great time and we said we should do it more often but of course we haven't :/ Hopefully we will soon! Time is running out :(

Lanae's Bridal Shower

On October 17 was Lanae's bridal shower. My sister-in-law, Meija, put it all together and she did a good job. It was a spa-theme and looked very nice! I feel really bad but I didn't take any pictures... I brought my camera and everything and it sat on the table all night long...my bad!

Lanae got a lot of nice gifts, some funny, some ...I can't think of the word!...realistic?, and some embarrassing (she was a great sport though). She's definitely set for a long while.

My favorite part of the night, besides Lanae of course, was the food! Talk about desserts! DELICIOUS!!! There was cheesecake, CHOCOLATE-COVERED STRAWBERRIES, brownies, and lots of other great food. YUM I want some more!

Well sorry I can't document much more...

Theres a 2-week hold!

So Lanae got married on Saturday (beautiful!) but she has requested that I wait until after her reception (which is Nov. 7) to post pictures so people can be surprised then. I am posting her announcement though. I promise in 2 weeks I'll post all the pictures - wedding and reception!



The front side :)


The back side :)

In regards to everything else I'd mention I'd post I promise I still will. Just give me a few days to catch up with school work :)

Slacker :(

So I know that its been over 2 weeks since my last post and this isn't really a post (more of a "coming up"). Normally when my friends take forever with updating their blogs I get agitated and here I am doing it too...my bad. Been super busy and it probably won't be until next week that I can really catch up but coming soon....

Becky's Birthday
Salt Lake Fun
Lanae's Bridal Shower
........and........
Lanae's Wedding (this Saturday!!!)

Stay tuned :)

Living at the "Glenhood"

Hey everyone,

I finally took pictures of my room (since I finally finished decorating it) and thought you might like to see it. Sorry in advance for the mess! (I really am not that messy -- just ask my roommates!)

This is under my bed...it's messy I know. I know the cinder blocks are ghetto looking but I personally appreciate the extra storage containers :)
This is another dirty view of under and around my bed...I probably shouldn't be displaying the slopiness :(
This is my half of the closet. I take full advantage of the shelves :)
Perhaps my FAVORITE part of the room...my little TV and DVD player...compliments of my step dad, Kevin, and Mom. Thanks!
My bed is on the side of the room where the door is. Sorry the picture is sideways...it wouldn't let me fix it before I uploaded it and it won't let me once I did.
My wall...I love the posters/pictures. It's so much better than the bear white walls!
Just above my head...seriously so much better than white!
My portion "half" of the shelf.
Sorry its sideways again...my "half" of the desk.
Another stupid sideways picture but my bed from when you first walk in.
Our room when you first walk in. I'm on the right and Rebecca's stuff is all on the left.

So yeah this is my apt. Glenwood has not been too bad but I'm hoping to move next semester for various reasons. Lets hope it all works out!
