Hello all! I don't really know how to brake into this post, so I'm just going to cut to the chase and go straight into things! I love life and I'm glad I'm where I'm at right now! I'm happy I guess you could say. I'm growing in many ways and am doing my best to hang on. It's actually been a whole lot easy for me this semester. I've been able to discipline myself in managing my time more wisely and discipline myself in the activities I participate in. I know how to cook now! Amazing! Who would have thought it be possible! I cook every Saturday for my roommates and my meals have gone splendid if I do say myself. This past week was homecoming week. I love homecoming week. It's fun! I love seeing all the families on campus and the "Y" lite up at night time. Yesterday was the homecoming parade and I got to dance in it with my fellow folk dance friends. It was freezing! I volunteered to help blow up balloons at 7 in the morning for the parade and it definitely snowed while we were blowing them up. Luckly, the snow stopped before the parade started so we didn't have to dance in it. We got really hot and sweaty while we were dancing anyways, so that helped us not to be so cold. I asked Suzanne to take some pictures of me in the parade so I could post them, but the pictures didn't turn out so good. Oh well, I'll post them anyways. Suzanne ended up video taping me and her camera and gave my camera to our friend Karen to take pictures with and she zoomed up a little to close. That's okay, I have the memory engrained in my brains...as well as those dang dances!! Man, I don't think I'll ever want to dance one of those dances as long as I live. We danced them so much yesterday! It was really tiring too! So here are the pictures...
Here's the happy couple freezing as they wait for me to show up in the parade so they can take my picture.
Miss Santaquin...isn't she lovely?! I don't know why but me and Suzanne get a kick out of the name Santaquin. We laugh every time we drive through Santaquin or see anything to do with Santaquin. I'm going to take a wild guess and say that Suzanne didn't take this picture for no reason. It was for our own enjoy.
Woo hoo!! The beginning of our folk dancers!!
Some folk dancers
This is half of my friend Aaron's face. He's my friend from last year and I hooked him up with the folk dance team. We are now on the same team, which is a lot of fun!
My face!!! Yay!!!
A better picture of my face in the parade...woo hoo!
I have some more pictures to share with ya'll. They're all random so you might be a little confused as to when they took place, but I'll just let you know that they have all happened since I've been back here at BYU.
Me on campus...my body shrunk!
Our dear friend Spencer Anapol from last year left on a mission to South Africa while we were up here and we were able to attend his farewell. Oh how we miss that Spencer!!
Oh Spencer...gotta love this kid!
So this one night, some people decorated my car...it was rad!
Haha! This was some good times!! I about peed my pants (literally) because I was laughing so hard. So this one night we went to a dance party on campus and after it was over Suzanne, Jill, my work buddy James, and I decided to stand with the family statues on campus and see if anyone noticed us as they passed by. We had some funny reactions. Of course I couldn't keep a straight face, so I kind of blew our cover, but it was really funny!!
This is James and Suzanne (the same night) being silly

Now that's what I'm talking about!!!!! Great pictures of what you have been doing at the Y! I'm glad that you even posted the blurry ones of you in the parade because you are still so dang cute! Don't you just love the Y?
Was Aaron the guy that you talked into being your partner last year when you tried out? If so, then he really wasn't kidding when he said that he had a good time and might try out next time!
And wow, you can cook now too? It's all about the recipe, isn't it? Good for you! Oh, how I miss my Mary! Can't wait for Thanksgiving.
Oh my gosh I love living fun college years through you. You look like you are having so much fun. You can cook? I cant even cook! Im a slacker. I miss you, cant wait to see you for thanksgiving.
No, Aaron is my friend from Scotland. He doesn't turn 19 until February so he came back to BYU for another semester. Cody is the one I took to try outs with me last year and he's on his mission in PA.
Good to see what youve been up to... now we just need to work on being "up to" more around the Sisters house(thats me)! :) Come over anytime! I got a sewing machine, so we can sew cute clothes haha... I dont know if they would be cute or not buti t would be fun to find out!
That was super fun. I love hearing how happy you are and how much wholesome fun you are having. Spencer is really cute. How come you never mentioned him before? :) James looks fun too. How is work going? Are you getting a lot of studying done when it's slow?
