Best Purchase Ever...

When the bookstore has a sale... who actually buys books? Especially when there are football t-shirts from September on sale for a DOLLAR!

We had to document out awesome purchase with Myspace like photos.

In case I ever forget how far away single's awareness day is... the bookstore has a countdown for me! Cupid probably makes a killing on this campus...

This is a picture of my desk... Emily likes to draw me pictures and post them up all over. From snuggies and flowers, to who she thinks I should be dating/marrying... theres a picture for all of them!

Oh The Places You'll Go...

When it's Sunday and you want cheese roll-ups from Taco Bell. Solution: Use an entire package of tortillas and cheese, and use up the bedroom stash of Mild Sauce. And it just wouldn't be complete with out soggy oreos :D

Pretty much the best way to spend a Sunday afternoon... watching dumb TV shows on Netflix and eating fake Taco Bell with Emily!

Why I Love College....

Probably one of the cutest girls I know right here....

As most people well know, I am slightly clumsy. But only slightly... anyways! At work the other day I was out front helping a customer and I suddenly remembered I had something in the oven that was needing to be out... so I just ran to the back really quickly to take it out. Well my dear Stephanie Wilber had been mopping back there... as if the floor isn't slick enough! Needless to say I ended up landing hard on the floor, knocking boxes down with me, and Stephanie had to go run and finish with the customer. I was laughing so hard I couldn't get up for a good 10 minutes. I don't go in the back when it's wet anymore...

So as much as I love my red hair...

I was thinking I wanted a change. It's still red... just strawberry blonder. Next time I'm thinking of going extra blonde... just to change it up.

Oh how I love my Eden girl. We have kindred spirits, right down to our matching boots.

I've got this girl trained well as to the correct way one shows off her awesome pink boots! And yes... she did this herself!

Nothing like walking out of your apartment to find this... only in Provo...

Baby Blanche... I Mean Melody

I am the proud new owner of a new niece! She was born Friday, January 22 and is just one cute little baby!

Oh and her name is not Blanche (though I'm pretty sure I'm still going to call her that :P), but Melody Jolene.

I think she looks like me... and so does Aunt Jill and Grannie... but I also tell everyone Eden is my spitting image.

She also makes one awesome glow-worm!

Going home from the hospital!

Mommy and baby!

My "Welcoming baby Blanche into the world" pedicure. Steph and Mom got one in North Carolina and I didnt want to be left out so I got one in Provo! Too bad it's winter and no one can see how cute they are...

Love At Home...

Glad Emily is paying attention in church.... notice there are no doors or windows, but there is a hot tub outside just incase.

I wasn't exactly sad to have to dip these in chocolate...

Mr. Smith Goes To Washington!

In snuggies...

...Longest movie of my life, and its more like It's A Wonderful Life on drugs, we were just hoping ZuZu would show up at some point...

Some videos to wrap up the update....

No one likes this poor child... at all...

Eden was "helping" her mom and I put together the fruit bouquet at Thanksgiving, just hand that girl a toothpick and some cut up fruit, and she's a happy camper. And she was really into giving people kisses that whole week...

This is taking place at approximately 11:50 p.m.... and yes we were still at work dipping away on cake bites. But Stephanie can multitask quite well if I don't say so myself!

More of the randomness of my life...

If I weren't so freaking cheap, I really would have gotten one of the aprons from work just for Christmas... they were so freaking cute.

But, as it turns out, I am cheap.

Susan and I wanted to go do something one day instead of doing stuff for finals, so of course that lead us to Walmart where we had to try on Miley Cyrus' newest skank clothes.

Apparently breaking your back isnt all its cracked up to be... pun fully intended. My friend Eric decided to celebrate his 18th birthday by breaking his back snowboarding! Good thing his finals were all done with... but he did a pretty good number on his back, if I remember right he got 7 of his vertebrae fused, and now gets to wear a pretty sweet brace for the next couple of months!

I have never enjoyed small dogs. But when I came home for Christmas i was greeted by Tyson of course and then I saw this small white/tan thing running around, and I honestly had no idea what it was. It was Lexi, Megan's mom's new dog. We are buds now... and I no longer dislike all small dogs!

I show up to work one day before I left for Christmas... and Britt is wearing this... and informs me that it's a good possibility it will be our new uniform... I'll let you form your own opinions...

No matter What Stephanie Wilber tells anyone... she LOVES taking the trash out to the dumpsters. However, she always makes me go with her, so we round up carts from the neighboring Quilted Bear and Sam's Club and load them up with trash and have races in them back to the dumpsters. But this particular evening, there was a faulty bag full of shredded carrots and who knows what else, and it broke, spewing carrotty goodness all over the snow... and the cart... and me... probably the most difficult mess to clean up with out actually touching it I've ever seen. But we did it...

I'm still not sure if we are allowed to have real Christmas trees in the apartments... but that didnt stop Stephanie and I from getting one anyways! And yes it was overpriced... but thats a small price to pay for the smell of a real tree :D

You could say Hannah Montana is not well loved in our apartment... Luke was sad when he saw what happened to his poster...

After getting back from Thanksgiving, and having that particular holiday out of season, the leaves and pumpkin vinyl had to go. However, it was frigidly cold out side and it wouldnt peel off. Solution... heat it up with the blow dryer!

Helping set up at Beccas wedding... we felt we needed to be in the proper spirit by wearing the leftover table runners.

I've been wearing the wrong kind of bow all this time...

A girl truly after my heart.

Yes my sister made this... and yes she is awesome!

Family picture... well our attempt anyways! And I'm not holding Eden in this one... so no "oh that poor teen mother" looks from people!

More... More.. More

I hate how blogger organizes things... thats why this is all jumbled...

Eden playing with one of the coolest cats I know... I think I need to do a post/ode to Wimby...

Annie and I are so freaking pumped for Eclipse to come out...

This is the new hobby I am getting pretty good at... peeling the metaly part of the gum wrapper off of the wax papery part and doing it in as few a pieces as possible. Hey... I need something to do in long meetings... thank you Eric for showing me how to waste my time more efficiently.

Apparently Stephanie is a vampire... or my phone just takes really freaky pictures in the car wash...

This doesnt even begin to show how many cakebites have been dipped at The Sweet Tooth Fairy in the past month. Right before Christmas there were so many orders for 1000's of cake bites. Stephanie Wilber and I spent one night at work till almost 2 dipping these bad boys... things got a little entertaing... videos to come...

Well... it's been a while :D

So per request of my favorite sister... alas I am updating the blog... and its going to be super random and long, but I've warned you!

So In November I had my 19th birthday, and how did I celebrate? Yes... by going to work and to school! But I got this freaking sweet candy bouquet from my mom and dad from my aunts floral shop she works at! Yes... everyone at work was jealous!

And Britt even made me a happy birthday cookie at work! I felt loved! And then when I got done with work, I headed back to the apartment where I was greeted with the carpet cleaners (which is an awesome birthday gift if you ask me) So I took a nap while they were doing their thing, and when I woke up Stephanie, Jacob, Eric, and I headed to Cafe Rio for dinner (I was super ticket at Emily for not coming.) But when we were done with dinner everyone headed back to our apartment where Emily had been waiting, as well as most of my FHE group, to surprise me with cake and ice cream. It was super sweet and then I wasnt mad at Emily anymore :D So it was a pretty good birthday all around!

I also got to spend some time with my favorite boys. I love how when I come home, from college, I choose to babysit, and that their parents rarely go out unless I can babysit. Some of the funniest boys I have ever met in my life!

Speaking of funny boys... the poor girls who live below us. We are kind of noisy on occasion (or alot) but after FHE one evening, all the boys came over for treats and thought it would be an awesome idea to sychronize their stomping so that it made a loud a noise as possible. All while holding lava cake and ice cream in their bowls... Oh you have to love Family Home Evening!

Thanksgiving... It was one awesome week! My dear cousin Katherine got engaged, as well as my cousin Mercedes (who is a year younger than me), making me the oldest non-married girl in the whole extended family. I feel like such a Ruth :D But I'm totally okay with that, I'm in no hurry! But I'm excited for their weddings!

Of course Annie and I had to play with Eden's Mrs. Potato Head stuff... she got bored of it in about 10 minutes, but Annie and I played with them the whole week!

Our couch at school has this amazing power over people... You can sit on it for more that about 15 mintues and not fall asleep. Its not even that good of a couch... but this is Luke sleeping on it, he wanted to watch something on TV but we all had things to do, so he sat and watched it, and when it got quiet in there we decided to check on him and make sure he was alive... he was, just asleep.

A trip to temple square... only at BYU do you get extra credit for attending temple square. And I love it!

Emily and I at the last BYU home game I was able to attend... it was an... interesting game to say the least. And we lost terribly... and it was snowing/raining... and I'd spent all afternoon getting ready...
