myyy boyfriennnnd. and other cool stuff.

The past few weeks have been fun! Greg and I hang out like every second. So thats basically what I do with my free time :) But some other events that have happened are:

We had a P party! We wore our Pjs, played Poker, ate Pizza, Peach rings, Popcorn, Pepsi, and listened to P-music!!! :)

Anyways so it was my first time playing poker ever, and same with my friend Ani, so we were on a team. We dominated. We won!! Real money. I know. We gamble at BYU. It was a date though so I think its ok :) 

Me and the real prize: :)
Can't read my. Can't read my. No he can't read my POKER FACE!!
Caroline and her poker game.
The WINNERS! :)

So, also, we went to this Festival of colors. This Hare Krishna temple in Spanish Fork (about 20 minutes away) has a festival every year that you go to celebrate the coming of spring. You go and buy colors and throw them around on each other. Here are the results:
Me and my best friend Caroline:
Jumping!
Kisses :)
Greg got sick so I brought him stuff to make him feel better.
Goofing off at his place :)

Life is SO amazing!

busy busy busy.

So, life has been crazy. I have never had a boyfriend at college before. Man is it tricky to manage time. I just want to be with him ALL the time. And with tests, community service, friends, him, homework, papers, and trying to find a job... lets just say its a little hectic. Anyways, his name is Greg Downs, and he sure is a catch. I am VERY lucky :)

We snuck into Sundance in the middle of the night and went sledding... until we got kicked out :)

I have been cooking a lot. I love it. Don't you just love my awesome apron? :)
My last day in my preschool class :(

Thoughts and Quotes

......

"Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what he is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on: you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently he starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make sense. What on earth is he up to? The explanation is that he is building quite a different house from the one you thought of — throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were going to be made into a decent little cottage: but he is building up a palace. He intends to come and live in it himself."
C.S. Lewis from, Mere Christianity

“Under the plan of heaven, the husband and the wife walk side by side as companions, neither one ahead of the other, but a daughter of God and a son of God walking side by side. Let your families be families of love and peace and happiness. Gather your children around you and have your family home evenings, teach your children the ways of the Lord, read to them from the scriptures, and let them come to know the great truths of the eternal gospel as set forth in these words of the Almighty.” 

Gordon B. Hinckley

“True doctrine, understood, changes attitudes and behavior. The study of the doctrines of the gospel will improve behavior quicker than a study of behavior will improve behavior.”   

President Boyd K. Packer

I like these. The end.

Winter 09

Wow, where to begin. This semester has been the best yet. By far. Getting closer with friends and boys! I have been so busy with school, but also with my social life. I don't really sleep anymore :)

I am so thankful that I got to come out to BYU. I don't know how I got in, but I am honestly so grateful for it. BYU is amazing, and I have met life-long friends out here. I don't know where I would be if I didn't come out to school here. My testimony has grown so much, I have learned so much in school, and have made some of the best friends ever imaginable! :)

Me and Lauren and Caroline. Best friends.

Me and my new boy Greg :) He is amazing! So cute and so nice to me. Treats me like a princess. I'm a lucky girl. (story of how we met is below) and me and Jacquelyn and Caroline and Steph all went 80's dancing!

We blindfolded rachel and took her to get her hair colored for the first time!
Another picture from caroline's princess party:

 So about 5 weeks ago I got set up on a blind date with this guy named greg. He is a cutie. I made him dinner then we went rock climbing:

We have had 3 birthdays in my apartment in two weeks! It was a very eventful two weeks I must say. Here are some pics from those events: So I uploaded these pictures funny so sorry for all the random ones above. I am not too good at blogs.

Fashionista.

While studying for finals today, I took an hour break, and found this amazing website. I think my passion in life is clothes. That might sound crazy but its true. I did both of these in an hour. I thought I should publish these. Well back to studying! :)
