Let it snow!!

Most people are so grouchy and complain when its cold and snowy but I LOVE it! I seriously do. look at that tree and tell me its not beautiful. I feel so refreshed in the winter air and i think the air is warmer when there is snow. I love Utah! best snow on earth.

why college is great

I LOVED study abroad but its fun to be back!

WHY COLLEGE IS GREAT

1. You live with your best friends! and can go out for ice cream at midnight, until you realize that everything in cedar city closes around 9 or 10, so you end up buying a half gallon of ice cream, and between a house full of girls, eat it all in one night!
2. Having so many sisters in Alpha Phi!
3. Going shot gun shooting for family home evening

4. Finding delicious leftovers!


i dont think my roommate had to worry about us eating these muffins. Disgusting I know!


5. Making new friends

6. Keeping in touch with old friends!

7. Having girls nights
8. Having random concerts and band practice.


9. Getting paid to go skiing and snowboarding. I love working up at Brian Head!
10. LIVING the LIFE!

GREEK WEEK

I LOVE ALPHA PHI!! I love being greek! We have so much fun!

Last night we had a "Trash Bash" to promote people to recycle we had a dance where you had to wear outfits made out of recyclable items. People got so creative making stuff out of newspaper, paper bags, plastic bags, etc. Alicia and I made shirts out of brown paper bags, I have a rockin ceral box skirt, earrings twisted from toilet paper roll insides, and bracelets from yogurt containers and cereal boxes! Make sure you RECYCLE! go green

Greek Olympics was fun! All clubs came and we competed in relay races and different "olympics." For one fun relay we did scoot on a scooter until you get to a sheet and tie a toga on, then throw a bean bag into 2 diff hula hoops, jump rop 10 times, run back to the scooter until all 4 people on the team complete!



Sisters!

Go team Alpha Phi!

We had pizza night one night and just socialized and hung out!

This will be a hard semester where i really have to work hard, but Im ready for it! I am going to focus and get good grades. I just need money to purchase my books....and for alpha phi. Life always boils down to time and money. Oh no! i sound like my dad, but its true. So I am working at BrianHead ski resort and I LOVE it! I teach little children how to ski as well as old people and also snowbaording. Its a blast. Iam so happy to be back to alpha phi with all the girls I love so much! i need another job- one that doesnt require a lot of time but earns a lot of money- any ideas?? and no im not selling my body for sex or drugs- its just too risky. haha. this year is going to be wonderful! Yay for 2009!

Happy New Year!!

I love Cedar City and my friends! last night sally, ashley, lacee and i went to a basketball game then taco tuesday. Did you know that costa vida does buy one taco get one free on tuesdays. its delicious. And even though Im not in a foreign country, I am hoping people still look at my blog and send me emails cuz this has been a fun way of keeping in touch and sharing pictures and fun ideas! I havent posted in a while so I have a LOT!

I'm so excited for 2009 and I have a lot of goals this year! On new years eve I went down to las vegas with some of my friends and it was a blast! We met these hilarious austrailians that claim i am a dwarf because i am so short and that in Austraila it is legal to THROW dwarfs... so yes they tried throwing me haha. We saw the cool motorcyclist, lots of funny people and fireworks and festivity after the countdown.

Being home and seeing my family was a lot of fun. I stayed with Jessica and scott one night, visited grandma Witt, stayed with melinda and at home.
Mikell was so cute coloring- Im not sure if more got on the paper, or her and the high chair. Melinda, sabrina and I went to the DI and got some shelfs and fun wooden things to sand and paint. If you wanna do cute crafts for cheap- DI is the palce to go!

They turned out really cute!

Happy Birthday to me- I turned 21! I had a great birthday. It started out the night before and I went to dinner with Caitlyn, Booth and matt up in Park City and it was delicious!
Then on my birthday- Dec 27, my family and i did the annual sledding, went out to dinner then went cosmic bowling! It was a day packed with fun!


Thanks Brit for sleeping over and Brooke and Shawn for coming! that was fun!

Christmas was a blast! The best part of my day was talking to Elder Romero on the phone! He is serving in Brazil and amazing!!

I sent him a huge stocking! I love missionaries!

Christmas day is full of traditions! This year everyone was home and it was so nice to be all together as a family! We woke up super early because we were so excited. We had lots of presents and yummy food! I got a cute dress, purse, lots of clothes, and other stuff. Thanks everyone! My niece and nephews are adorable and were fun to watch!This is Carson!


Good morning Mikell!

Jackson loved his new toys.

Christmas time is wonderful! It is my favorite day of the year. I love being with my family. I am thankful for Jesus Christ! We played games, watched movies, did puzzles and just spent quality time with each other!

The day after christmas was a BLAST and Sabrina, David, marcus and I played in the snow. We slid off the shed and made homemade snowcones by adding the snowcone juice to real snow- how delicious.A big windstorm knocked over our basketball hoop!! and the backboard fell and hit my car- it was horrible. But I LOVE having my car back! I missed it.
The Romero family took me out to dinner for my birthday. I love them!!


The break also included fun activities such as- looking at christmas lights, sledding, skiing, sleepovers, and lots of good laughs! Now back to reality and school. Thank goodness for Christmas break!!
