It's been a while...

And I apologize for that. So, this will be my "catch up blog", I think we'll have those periodically from now on. College is really putting a damper on anything not college related, but here goes my last 4.5ish weeks.

Nothing like catching up with some old friends! We stopped in Salt Lake for
about a night before heading up to Rexburg. (left to right) Rebekah Winslow,
Anna Adrignola, and me. We ruled the playground of West Valley Elementary.
Not much has changed. That gives me hope.

Our hotel in Idaho Falls. Day before the big day. S-C-A-R-E-D.

Me and my roommate out at Wingers. Kadee & Kaitin. Precious!

 
Me and Annie have loads of fun! From grocery shopping
to webcam pics in the library, we just. . .have a blast.


I forced a roomie trip to Yellowstone, of course. Back to the place I love.
I seriously hadn't had that much fun in. . .4 years! (left to right) 
Tiffany Barton, Me, Kiersten Parlogean, Kaitlin Welker,
Lorin Brown, Juli Loosle and Chelsey England. I love these girls

Skype makes the world go round. Yes it does. I love these people,
and I get to see their faces almost everyday!

Makin' it feel like home. I sure try. I like my little corner.

I love Geology!

 
FHE is fabulous when you have such amazing FHE brothers haha,
After all, it's not everyday you get to learn how to breathe fire!

 
Girls Night! Nothin' like pancakes at midnight, eh?

 
Ward activity: Karaoke. Let it happen.
Why? Because Earl Had to Die.
