BYU vs AIR FORCE

Our cougars pulled through with another victory on Saturday. BUT the best part of the whole game was that Craig and I were on TV i'm pretty sure. They captured this moment...


Craig sat on my lap to keep me warm. It was absolutely freezing. The next thing I know there is a camara in my face. So we smiled and waved as Craig said, "Oh Crap". Good thing I wasn't picking my nose or something...now THAT would've been embarrassing. We can't help that we're just ridiculously good-looking.

Hit by a car

Nope....I wasn't the one that got hit. My roommate got hit by a car tonight. Very scary! Some idiot chick driver was going about 30mph and hit my roommate, Lindsay as she was crossing the crosswalk. The EMT came and took her to the ER. You gotta love my roommate though...when the EMT got to the site of the accident Lindsay told the EMT to call my other roommate Bekah and tell her that she wasn't going to be able to make it to FHE (Lindsay is our FHE mom) Bekah about busted up laughing...way to magnify your calling Linds. Anyway, she was definitely blessed with the fact that she didn't have a concussion, any broken bones or fractures. She's definitely feeling some extremely bad pain though. Our ward is so great and rallied around the cause and helped out with a bunch. It's great how the gospel brings us all together. Your thoughts and prayers would be much appreciated.

Broken Sandals

Well Everyone...I am sad to announce that my super cute black sandals passed away the other day. Let me fill you in on what happened. Last week on Tuesday I was up on campus walking back from the devotional with Craig and Bekah. Ya know....I'm just walking along minding my own business in a huge crowd of people. Lucky me that I take after my extremely clumsy older sister (love you Bre) I totally tripped on a little crack in the side walk. It was one of those cracks that the squares of cement don't line up quite right so one of them is a little higher than the other...yah that beloved one. You think Cement layers would know how to evenly spread Cement. I blame them for this mishap. Anyway, so i totally trip and the strap of my sandal broke. Luckily these sandals had a strap around the ankle too so they were still connected. My sandal was pretty much dragging on the floor so I had to pick up my foot. I felt like a retarded horse. Craig and Bekah could not stop laughing at me. It was aweful. I was going to be late for one of my classes so I had to go to class with a broken shoe. Craig, as kind and gracious as he is, picked me up after my class and ran me home so that i could get a new pair of shoes and made it back to campus just in time for my next class.
Because these sandals are my favorite shoes I felt like I needed to save them in some way. Thank goodness for the divine invention of Gorilla Super Glue right? Thanks to Craig he lent me some glue to repair my poor shoe. So i reattached the strap with the glue...gave it a little tug to make sure it worked and what did I find?....A miracle! It totally worked....or so i thought.
This past Tuesday I decided to give it a shot and wear the sandals again. I was running a little bit late on this particular morning. It wasn't the greatest morning to be running late either...I had a paper due in my first class so i was trying to book it up to campus. So I'm walking fairly quickley....backpack on back, coat in hand, sandals functioning great until what happened? THE SAME EXACT THING! I tripped on a stupid cement square that was little bit higher than the previous one and my sandal broke again! I stopped for a second and did a lot bit of that dance when your not really sure if you should go back or keep on going forward. People, I had just barely passed the riviera parking lot when this happened so I definitely was not too far away from my apartment. I'm pretty sure any normal girl would've said, "screw class. I want to look good. and I definitely don't want to be looking like a horse walking around all day with a broken shoe." Well mom, I'm pleased to announce that my schooling won this battle. I can't believe i did this but i just kept on trudging...ALL THE WAY UP TO CAMPUS. I went to my first class with a broken shoe..trying so hard to not turn heads. I text Bekah and Craig of what had tragically happened to me. They definitely got a kick out of it. Bekah, bless her soul, brought me a new pair of sandals to the devotional.

Moral of the Story: Time for new black Sandals! oh and...Watch out for those stupid abnormally raised Cement squares in the ground. Come one Cement Layers...learn how to do your job. You broke my favorite shoe.

Halloween

Ya know...I've never really been a big fan of Halloween. The only cool thing about it was that you got free candy for just saying "trick-or-treat" and you didn't even need to do a trick. All Halloween is, is an attention-seeking holiday. I mean, really though...think about it. People try to have the best costumes just so people will notice them. I've always believed that Halloween is just an excuse for girls to dress slutty and get away with it. Now we all know what I'm talking about. Obnoxious guys, thinking they are so cool in their ridiculous costumes and girls walking around, scantily dressed in their nurses outfits and soccer referees....now that is my idea of a party. Because I want to avoid this WHOREndous sight, Craig and I had a party of our own. We went grocery shopping and then played scrabble. Sure, you might say to yourself "wow that's extremely lame. Can you guys not think of anything else to do on Halloween night?" Frankly, we quite enjoyed our peace and quiet. Eat that Halloween....

Snuggies

So Today I was minding my own business watching good ol' "Say Yes to the Dress" on TLC and the snuggie commercial came on. Now I know that we all know what snuggies are....what a fabulous invention right? Well through out the duration of the commercial i could not stop laughing not because of the rediculousness of the snuggie itself but the fact that they said...."You can even get a matching snuggie for your dog!" What is this proposterousness? Do dog's really get cold? and if they do that is what a kennel is for. It's not like your dog is really going to want to wear that hiteous thing anyway. I will give you this....I have been very tempted at times to purchase the snuggie for myself just to see what it's like...preferably the zebra print one. But really??....for your dog??? If you don't believe me go to www.snuggiesfordogs.com.


Doesn't this picture just capture the moment? I think I'm sold....

Things that make me happy...

I've been thinking a lot lately about the things that make me happy....they might be a little odd....but they make me happy nevertheless. First things first....

My boyfriend is a stud.
Getting a 44% on my nutrition test and not even getting mad....
My work is only two minutes away. i could wake up at 6:58 if I wanted and could still get there on time.
My new coat from Forever 21...absolutely breath taking
BYU Football (most of the time)
My roommate Bekah :)
And for the grand finale....The Pizza Lady that holds the little Caesars sign on the corner of Bulldog and State Street....this blog post should really be dedicated to her. She is simply marvelous.

Let me just talk about her for a minute. During the summer I would purposely take that route to go places just so I could see that lady dance around on the corner. Oh how i wish i had a video of it. She would sit there kicking her legs and moving her sign around for literally hours without fail. She would be burnt to a crisp and still just have a smile on her face. I would sit there and watch her for a few minutes seriously wondering how she could possibly be happy doing that job. And then I remembered...."Hey this economy is pretty much in a grave...at least she's got something to be excited about...She actually has a job!" I seriously give this lady props. Sometimes I pass by her every once in a while for old times sake...and there she is...still just dancing around on the corner...happy as a clam. I wouldn't be surprised if she's still dancing out there in the middle of a blizzard. If she isn't...Provo will have definitely lost it's spark. I never knew anyone could be so happy promoting Little Caesars pizza. Pizza Lady on the corner....this is a shout out to you. I commend you for the goodness you bring into this world.

Bear Lake

Last week I went to Bear Lake with Craig and his older brother and sister Dan and Jesse. It was absolutely freezing the entire time...as a matter of fact it was snowing half the time. First snow fall of the winter! I definitely did not pack enough winter clothes for the trip but I was grateful for lots of blankets. Because it was too cold, we didn't get the chance to take the jet ski's out on the lake. We spent lots of time in the cabin playing games, mostly spider solitaire. I am proud to announce that Craig and I beat the hardest level twice. We did get the chance to take the ATV's out on Saturday. Craig has no mercy on those things but it was still way fun. There was some hot dog roasting and some gun shooting. It was definitely nice to get away from school and work for a few days. Totally worth it.


We played a little Poker one night. As you can see Craig kicked my trash. He got pretty much all the candy. I was left with just a snickers and one rolo.

Such a STUD


This was a nightly occurance...watching movies with Craig, Dan and Jesse


He doesn't do it too often but I got the pleasure of Craig serenading me.

Just having some fun in the mountains.

Craig and I going off jumps.
