life.

What's new? Not really anything, actually. I am still just doing the same old thang and enjoying my time down here in Provo. I've had fun with friends and am working hard to get through these next couple weeks of school. I'm definitely starting to get burnt out considering I've been in school since the Fall. I am looking forward to a FUN FILLED summer, that's for sure! I start working camps this week and it is also my birthday this week and I'm looking forward to not being a teenager anymore. Good things to come this week.... money and maturity.  

I got a cute lil' bike at walmart. So, here is Kimmer and I on a bike ride at night time! So fun.

Little Miss Haley Hall (now Mrs. Steed) was married. Kim, me and Staisha (funniest girl ever) at her luncheon. It was so simple and sweet and a special day for the happy couple! Congrats Haley and Bo!! 

RUGBY! Unfortunately our men lost that day, but it was still a really fun environment and a good game. I love this picture for so many reasons! Looking forward to next season! 

The other night was absolutely gorgeous weather! We all went to Rock Canyon park just up the road. The grass is so green and it was PERFECT temperature. I just wish the rain would go away and that the weather was like that every single day. It made me so, so happy. 

The beloved Porsche. 

Fus, Kim and I helped chaperone at the Timpview graduation party. It actually turned out to be more of a party for us if you couldn't really tell. We had so much fun just being goofs outside! The theme was a 'beach-cruise type' thing. The school was decorated way cute and the graduates seem to have had a great time. It is SO weird to think that I finished high school 2 years ago! It really seems like yesterday. 

My pretty friends! Megan, Fus, Kimmy and I.

    Life is good. I really have not a thing to complain about and... it feels so good. I was able to go to the temple this past week to do baptisms. I know how peaceful the temple is and that there really isn't a better place to receive answers to things. The biggest impression that I got while I was there was to.... smile. While I was there, I could not stop smiling and I worked hard to smile the rest of the day. I realized what a smile can really do! It can make you happy even if you're really not feeling that way, it can make others happy and I always feel when people have a genuine smile on their face, they most definitely have a certain light about them. So, SMILE everyone!

Ladies and Gents. This beautiful girl has beat cancer. She is my hero everyday and I love her to death!!!! AK10!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Bair and I

Baby Jackson! Stud. 

Goofin' off on Kimmer's car. We had some fun... obviously.

Weird..

I like school. 

  I thought that would be a phrase I would never, under any circumstances, say. However, I honestly and earnestly enjoy Spring Semester here at the Y. It isn't busy at all, my professors are awesome, I'm not constantly traveling and the SUN is shining. Who woulda' ever thought... 

Happy Mother's Day!!!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO MY BEAUTIFUL MOM!!!!

   Being down at school I see everyone thinking about what they are going to do for their mom's and making plans for what they are going to do for sunday dinner. I, on the other hand, don't get that same privilege being so far away from home. I get to wish my mom a happy day and that's really about it and as sincere as my phone call may be, it surely does not suffice for what this woman deserves :) 

I love my mom for so many reasons. I love her for putting up with my stubborn personality. I love her for supporting me in anything I choose to do. I love her for teaching me all of the little things that add up to be big things. I love her for her ability to make me feel good about myself. I love her for her blunt yet wide sense of humor. I love her for her looks... she's a beauty, obviously. I love her for always making our home so clean and welcoming. I love her for SO many reasons. She is the best mom in the world!!! 

I love you mom! Sorry I couldn't be home to celebrate the day with you. I will make it up to you somehow. 

Good times in P-R-O-V-O

   Spring time is a good time. The weather is finally starting to get nice, working out with the team is fun (minus the grueling circuits), school doesn't seem so impossible, Fus is almost done chemo and I am definitely starting to feel so comfortable down here. I'm having fun!!!

Miss Kimberly and I attended a BYU Rugby game on Saturday. My teammate's husband plays on the team along with my good friend Braden. I never realized how fun Rugby is to watch... it's really intense. There was a fight that almost took place right in front of us, I was pumped! These guys are wicked tough, it's a pretty brutal game. Oh and the picture on the left... Kim and I were commenting on how much this fellow looked like 'Kip' off Napoleon Dynamite. After observing a little bit more I realized that I have actually been out for ice cream with this guy... no, not  joke, if you want the full story CALL ME. Thanks to Travis Seaborn for the set up on that one... haha.

I WANT A PUPPY!! These lil' guys were outside the dollar theatre on sale for $150!! I wanted one so bad. They were lab and border collie mixed. So cute!

I also participated in a 'Dessert Cook-Off'. My friend Garrett and I decided that chocolate chip cookies with ice cream on top would be our best bet. It took us a grand ol' 15 minutes to prepare. Our opponents decided to make a layered dessert with brownies, strawberries, graham crackers, pudding... the WORKS! We invited a random couple to taste both desserts and pick the best one. By the looks of it... who do you think won?........................ You're wrong!!!! The simplicity of the cookie with ice cream on top won the judges. Sweet, sweet victory. 

Another thing... my friend Braden took me out for a DECADENT lunch today. Let me tell you, it was so, so good. It was.... PHO (pronounced fuh) it is a really yummy soup. There is rice noodles, your choice of meat, onions, basil, sprouts... delicious things. He said that once I tried it I will probably be wanting to come back again and again and... he was right. I loved it! It is really good when you put hot sauce in it too, for a little bit of kick.

Hope everyone's spring has started off as good as mine!!!
