My little brother is gone. He is going to be such a great little missionary and the people of Jacksonville are so blessed to have him there serving them!

Back to school?

Ok, so as is proper for a young adult, decisions must be made in order to progress in this wonderful thing we call growing up. So my question is should I go back to school and finish in Rexburg? I think one of the best ways to of list out the pros and cons.

So we will start with the pros:

-It is a great school for a great price!

-Love the spirit there.

-Social atmosphere is fantastic.

-Blake and Nicole are there.

-Natalie will be there.

-I would finish school.

Cons:

-COLD.

-Chels already graduated so I would go in alone.

-It's on the otherside of Idaho.

-I would have no car.

So now I need help in making the decision. I know that I will ultimately make the final decision but it's nice to have input from the people who care. So please feel free to share your thoughts.

.:sorry it's been a while... lots to catch up on:.

Lots has been happening. I have been enjoying my time at home and away from college. So much that I just don't know when I am going back... I know... I am a slacker. Had a boyfriend but sadly that ended. Its for the best though so I am doing just fine.

My singles ward had a Christmas dance and it was Hollywood themed. So I went as Taylor Swift...I know I don't look like her but hey I tried. Directly below is a picture of my baby sister Natalie(far left) and Ashley Capistran and myself. We are cool.

Natalie and I completed the first annual Parma Holiday Bust Your Bells 5K. It was freezing... and I walked most of the way but at least I did it. My dad, who was directing traffic took this beautiful pic at our first turn. Haha looks like we are working hard right?

.

Well that's basically my life in a nutshell. It's been great. I will try to be better at keeping you all updated.

.:peace&blessings:.

This is my second attempt to recreate something from pinterest.

1: Wavy, messy hair.

My attempt. Win?

.:i accept your challenge:.

Okay, so I know that I am not the only one out there obsessed with pinterest. I love everything about it and have basically planned my future wedding, house, yard/garden, closet and children's closet from it.

Well as I have gone through some pictures I have decided to give some a try of my own. So naturally I am going to blog it. I hereby accept the pinterest challenge and will try to recreate what I see.

1: I saw a great idea for my bedroom so I tried it and succeeded.

Here is my re-creation. My sister and I share a room so I built two beds. Hooray for palette beds!

.:Me and My Crafty-self:.

Well this month has been a crazy fun one! Two

weddings 3 receptions, lots of family and I got a job!

My cousin Amanda got married and the very next day my brother Blake

and my dear friend Nicole got married! Such an amazing weekend.

So for Blake and Nicole's wedding reception here in Parma

I made them a cute little sign that hung on a cute aqua colored door. It was

Awesome! I have just been so crafty! It's been fun!

Here is the sign I made.

Then one day I was browsing around on pinterest and saw the cutest bed made

out of palettes. So I decided to make one. My sister and I share a room

so I made us kind of a couch bed thing. I turned out great. I painted a wall in our room aqua

and the rest of the walls are yellow! It's really great if I do say so myself. Still

trying to figure out something great for the big blank blue wall.

So if you have any ideas please feel free to share.

Peace&Blessings

.:Update Update Update:.

This has been a crazy fun week! Let me give you a quick recap.

SUNDAY:

Chelsi and I went to the park and met Brando there and played some frisbee (threw the frisbee around) and took some great... ok they were mostly not great pictures. Then we decided to make brownie waffles... didn't work so well but still delicious!

MONDAY:

Chelsi and I went to the car wash! We loved it! Like being a kid again and Chelsi's car looked beautiful. Then we came home and skipped FHE. We all hid up in my and Dawna's room until the coast was clear. Then Dawner, Cello and I road our bicycles to The Cocoa Bean and got some delicious peach frappes. Then Sky high came over and made a bowtie and also attempted to teach me how to tie one... not a success.

TUESDAY:

Was a lame day. Everyone had to work... so I sat around doing nothing... my life = lame without Cello and Dawner.

WEDNESDAY: Everyone worked again so I patiently waited for my friends to get home from work.

THURSDAY:

Party! Chelsi didn't have to work! Woo Hoo! We attempted to go bridge jumping in the middle of the night which... we all chickened out. The water was moving very fast and it was dark... not a good combo. So then we went on a walk along the river and as we were walking we hear a big splash and I took off running which in turn made everyone else run, except poor little taylor... he wasn't wearing shoes and the road was very rocky... we got to the car and picked tay tay up and then we went to investigate the noise from the safety of our car... and eventually turned around instead... we drove home and had some scares... mostly just me screaming(literally screaming) at random things. Truth or truth was our game of the night and let's just say there are no secrets between us.

FRIDAY:

Baby Grant came to visit! We went to the farmers market and the Sand dunes! Dawner, Cello and I went to the Rexburg Farmers Market and stalked to corn boys as per usual. Then I changed Dawner's tire for her. I am pro. Then Dawner, Cello, Tay Tay, Noc, BBlake, Baby Grant and I had a bonfire! So much fun! We jumped over the fire, roasted mallows and took pics! Also Dawner and I went and jumped off the dunes! We are the only fun ones. YAY!

SATURDAY:

Bridge Jumping. We had lots of fun and some very scary times... for me at least. When i jumped off I got caught in the current, and couldn't get out and kept trying to get to the shore and i tried to stand up but the rocks were slippery and the water was too strong. Finally the water pushed me into a little eddy and i was able to climb out. SCARIEST thing ever! I almost died, for real. Definitely will not being doing that again soon. then we got ice cream, and just hung out like cool kids.

SUNDAY:

I spoke in church and did amazing. then we hiked "our" mountain. It was soo great! It was a really fun hike, pretty tough but fun! At the top Dawner, Cello, Tay Tay and I had a little picnic and chatted and had a great time. Speaking only in our accents of course! We are the best! Later we set up the hammock between a tree and my truck and chilled out there the rest of the night. We are the best!

It was one of my favorite weeks ever and it makes me really miss this place already. I will miss you Cello and Dawner and even Tay Tay.

Now people. I am tired of getting more text messages from facebook than from real people. It's not cool and makes me sad. I think ya'll should fix that for me...mmmm kay?

Peace&Blessings
