Just a Little Bit of Christmas Cheer

I don't really have much to say here other then we were board!! And it was snowing and we had been listening to Christmas songs all day on Sam's radio! I hope you get as much of a kick out of these videos as we did! The first one is Suzanne singing "Merry Christmas Darling" from the Carpenters, the second one is me singing "White Christmas", and the third one is both of us singing "The Christmas Song".

Froo Froo Held Hostage?!?!

Today me and Suzanne went to Christmas Around the World (it is a show that the Folk dance team puts on here) and while we were gone, Sam decided to go over to Lanae and Becky's apartment next door and left our front door unlocked. When she came back to the apartment, she found a ransom note on our door for our pet flamingo Froo Froo. As you may recall from earlier posts of mine, Froo Froo is the wicker flamingo that we have in our living room...he's kind of like out mascot. Well anyways, when me and Suz got home and heard this terrible news that Froo Froo had been kidnapped, we got down to business. There was no joking around here, we were going to find him and get him back. So we dressed up like spies and went a lookin'. We made up spy names. Suzanne was Natasha, Sam was Lila, and I was Suda. Well, we have yet to find our poor little friend Froo Froo, but we will find him! Whatever it takes, we WILL find him. So a little bit about our adventure tonight before I close off this post...we thought it was our FHE brothers that stole Froo Froo, so we decided to steal something of theirs as an incentive for them to give us Froo Froo back. But before we could do this, we had to do a little planning of our own. We were so sneaky!! So Sam and Suzanne ran into our FHE brother's apartment screaming and yelling at them telling them to give Froo Froo back, and while they were creating this little diversion, I crept in and stole their Nintendo...it was smooooooth! Well we later found out it wasn't them who stole it, so we gave them their Nintendo back, but we did make a ransom note for it so you will be able to see that in one of the pictures we took. Interesting stuff that's going on here I tell ya...I wonder who did it?

Froo Froo's Hostage picture...who ever this is created a Facebook as added me as a friend so that's where I got the picture.

WE ARE SPIES!!! Cool!


Where's FROO FROO?!? He's gone!

Gettin' In the Christmas Spirit

Yesterday when I came home (I just home from Baltimore) I walked in to find Christmas joy sitting right on my living room floor!! Over the brake Sam's Mom had bought us a $10 Christmas tree and some ornaments (What a wonderful lady) from Walgreens. We were so excited for our new tree that we just jumped right into our Christmas decorating!! It's such a fun activity and it really takes a load off your mind (if anyone is ever wondering how to be stress-free then just decorate a Christmas tree...it works...trust me!). I think we decorated for 5 hrs.! Great fun I tell ya! When I got my camera out to take pictures, I found out it didn't work anymore so I had to take pictures with my computer and that's not really the easiest thing to do! So sorry about the tight pictures...couldn't really fit that much in the pictures with my little camera! I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!!

Sam's decorating the TREE!!!

This is our somewhat done door...my camera on my computer takes pictures backwards so that Sign really says "Merry Christmas" not "samtsirhC yrreM"

ROBE Party?!?!

This morning, very early...like 1:30 early...we got a knock at our door from our FHE brothers! They were all in their brand new, and might I add very soft, robes that they had just bearly bought at Wal-Mart! They were so proud and wanted to show them off...so they came over. It was so funny! They brought us chocolate and we joined in on the fun by putting on our own robes and having a robe party. Once it reached too late for them to be in our apartment anymore, we took our robe party over to Taco Bell. In some of these pictures you will be able to get a little hint of what our adventure was like. I love my FHE brothers!! haha! I'm sorry if all my adventures here are "you have to be there" type of things, but that's all I have! I'm sorry...I hope you enjoy them anyways because I know I do! Haha!

Inspiration!!!!

This morning was such a beautiful morning! It was cloudy (which I love) and it was just so great! So I kind of had a little inspiration from my next door neighbor Megan. I had woken up earlier then Sam (Suzanne's not here this weekend by the way. She went home for her grandma's funeral) so after I had already gotten ready for the day and Sam still wasn't awake, I decided to go visit the neighbors. Megan was the only one awake there so I sat and talked to her for a while. She showed me her sketch book (she wants to be a computer animator) and that's where the inspiration began! I wanted to draw...so I went back to my dorm and whipped out a pencil and paper...I didn't know what to draw though. Right as I thought that I looked out my window and there was the most picturesque scene I have ever beheld!!!! It was the playground and the huge tree outside my dorm. It was so pretty though because there was leaves everywhere! I loved it! It was quite romantic actually! And I was in a romantic mood, so I took my party outside on the park bench right next to the playground and tried drawing the scene I saw. It was fun! I get a great satisfaction in doing the arts! It was so relaxing! I think that's why I like singing and dancing so much! It's an art! Gotta love it!

THE SCENE!!

The Great BYU Campus...Oh How Wonderful It Is!!

Right at this very moment me and good ol' Krisit Jackson are sitting outside on the grass on the GREAT BYU CAMPUS!! We weren't in a very studious mood so after our physical science class that we just had together we decided to plop ourselves outside on the grass and chill. We have two classes together, so maybe we'll get some studying done together out here. I'm really excited right now because I totally get internet connection. It's awesome!! We are sitting right next to the SWKT (Spencer W. Kimbell Tower)! That's probably why I'm getting such good connection. So I'll just take this time to show you guys a little bit of the scenery. It's really pretty up here right now and it feels so nice! "All you need is a light jacket!" (Name that movie!) So from these pictures you can see all the pretty leaves!! I love the leaves! One day on the way home from choir me and Sam (my room mate) and Becky Barney (friend from back home) saw a bunch of leaves and we spontaneously had a leaf war! It was really fun! I wish I could post those pictures, but they are only taken from my phone. Well anyways, enjoy these pictures! And to all those who are BYU alumni, I hope these pictures bring back happy memories!!! So long!

She's Awake!!! Yay!
