Blog Background

Well, here is one of my first successful attempts at creating my own background. What'dya think? Not the best but it's a start. To do it I downloaded paint.net. It's like Photoshop but free :) It has been lots of fun and hopefully I can get better at it. Next I need to learn how to do headers so I don't have to have the ugly box one! Any comments/suggestions?
Other than that I'm just enjoying my week away from school during Spring Break. It's nice to be able to sleep in a little bit. Tomorrow I gotta buckle down though and get some serious homework done! We'll see how that goes...

Apron Fun

Wow, I really am a loser at staying caught up on this... Haha. I'll try harder. Well- this post is dedicated to the cute aprons Jaymie's mom Corie made for us. They are just waaay too fun :)

See I told ya! They're so cute we have them hung up on our wall. Guess which one's mine...?

This would be it! Check out my rad shoes :)

I love Vali!

As a sidenote... We like to write on our fridge. Amanda is demonstrating.

Look we cooked ourselves a pretty scrumptious dinner of breakfast foods!

My roommates are the best! (Jaymie, Vali, Me, and Amber)

Now I bet you all are jealous that you don't have an apron as awesome as mine. ThAnKs Corie We love you!!

On the road again... And again. And again.

Well at a request of Audra here I am blogging instead of studying. It's okay, I don't mind to bad ;) I am just here to say, "I am SOOOOO sick of driving!" In the past three days I have driven 20 hours and I've got at least 5 1/2 more to go before I get back to school. Uuugh.

On Wednesday three of my roommates and I packed up for Wyoming. Amber doesn't have a car so we drove her to her grandpa's funeral. That was 7 hours both ways but full of girl talk, blaring music, and treats. We all took turns so I only ended up driving about 5 or 6 of the hours. We rolled into Ephraim around midnight and the next day I got to turn around and drive to Riverton and then on to Rexburg. Fun stuff...!

Let's Get This Started

Ughh well I am currently writing a paper for my English 2010 class and decided I needed a well-deserved break! Here I go starting another blog... let's hope it turns out a bit better than the last :)

For those of you who don't know, I'm a freshman down at Snow College and loving every minute of it. I have 5 other roommates and we share 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

This is a picture of Vali, Jaymie, Me, and Amber in McDonalds after we bought our fish Darrel (pictured in the middle). We bought him at WalMart in Provo and safely transported him to Ephraim (an hour away). ...He died two days later. Living in Ephraim this is pretty typical behavior. Some of the other crazy things we have done are:

Gone to Denny's in Selina at 1:30 on Halloween...

Got our beds pulled off their "boxes" at 2:00 in the morning thanks to our neighbor boys Wes and Garet...

Bought little boy superhero shirts...

Dipped chocolate-covered pretzels at about 1:30 AM...

Painted shirts for a neon dance... and tons of other stuff!! As you can see there is never a dull moment!

I'm majoring in Family and Consumer Science Education so I'll hopefully end up teaching high school... Go figure! I love it though... this semester I'm taking English, Chemistry, Nutrition, Interior Design, Quilting, Bowling and Institute. I've definitely got a full schedule! Speaking of which I'd better get back to that paper...
