"every goodbye means another hello"

So two of my way good friends from up here are taking the semester off and going to China to teach english! I'm so excited for them, and maybe a little bit jealous of them too!

But last night they were up here and we had a great time just talking, eating, laughing and such!

I'm gonna miss them. 

but they really want to road-trip down to AZ in june or july when they get back,

so hopefully they actually will. :)

Me, Ryleigh and Brooke

seriously, i love Ryleigh.. she is such a good friend, and we both are very similar in our personalities! We have had some great times together!

"everybody's got a have a body"

i love the body.

i love the way everything goes together

i love how everything fits

i love how the organs work and help each other

i love how there are certain things that are good for it

i love how there are certain things that are bad for it

i love the different body types there are

i love the pain you feel after a great workout

i love that you are born weak and die weak

i love that your brain signals everything

i love that everybody on earth has one

i love the body.

grow grow grow...

i'm proud to say that my hair is getting longer... now most people would still consider it short, but for me... it's longer than it has been in a while or forever!

 

i don't ever remember a time where i could tuck my bangs behind my ear and they stay! 

However, it's getting to the stage where i am starting to think about cutting it, but DON'T LET ME! i'm asking that if i ever say anything about cutting it that you don't allow me too! 

say "no..i like it long, or grow it out until the summer!" 

i really just want to see what i look like with long hair and be able to throw it up in a high ponytail and it stays and looks cute.. ya know?!

hopefully i'll get there.. we'll see.

saturday

so, i went skiing for my first time ever! i loved it. I'd say i got the hang of it pretty fast, i only fell 3 times the whole day! I'm glad that i finally went, i started on the bunny and then went to the next level of green! Now i know why people enjoy skiing so much!

Brooke and I on the lift.

good old beaver mountain.

my ski's... Corona Colors Anyone? 

After a full day of skiing we went to the USU basketball game! Seriously, these games are so fun! yesterday the wouldn't let anymore students in at about 30 minutes into the game because it was sold out! It was a huge game against Boise State and since we won we are in the top 25! 

Go Aggies..

now a couple video's of why the opposing team hates to play in the Spectrum... it's on the top 10 list of worst places to play! I guess us Aggies just know how to show our team spirit! Go Aggies!

the slopes.

today this will be me for the fist time ever! I'm excited and nervous! wish me luck. 

out and about.

this past weekend was way fun! (like every weekend up here) 

one of my friends, Creighton, bought a limo over the break for $300 and his boss paid for it to be fixed up and stuff! So Friday night me and a few of the girls met up with some of our guys and drove around in the limo for a while. We ended up having a dance party in the Walmart parking lot! it was hilarious!

madison and i showing of our moves.... (yes, i know my legs look forever long)

me, whitney, ginger, and madison

rhett... proving he is the best at dancing.. wrong.

Then on Saturday my friend Ginger turned 20! so the guys drove us girls in the limo and we went out to dinner in Ogden and then returned to Logan, ditched the limo drivers and hung out with some other guy friends! We almost went to see the "weeping lady" in the cemetery, but then we chickened out!

ging and i putting on our best dance moves.

umm.. basically.. i love her.

the party crew! 

On sunday, i went up to visit the 406 girls and to my surprise my way good friend Ryleigh was up here surprising everyone! She's not in school this semester because she is leaving for China to teach english in February. I was honestly so shocked to see her, and we stayed up until 3 am talking, pulling pranks, eating, laughing, more talking! it was so fun! then she came with me to my class on Monday morning and the library! 

frosty the snowman...

so last night was the first snowman i ever built! it was so fun, i decided i love the snow! it was a huge snowman about 8 ft tall. :)

me, Marlee, and Lacey

 

me and the snowman, he is so cute!

we also built snow angels. 

the crew who made it with me! 

just chillin... (literally)

so i arrived in Logan last night and let me just say i am SO happy to be back, except for one thing.
When i got in the car in SLC it read...21 degrees
I left centerville...11 degrees
Arrived in Cache Valley... -7 degrees
Got to snow hall... -2 degrees
Left for school this morning... 3 degrees
Right Now... 8 degrees and blizzarding.

other than that... i'm glad to be back and reuniting with my friends.

holiday season..

This Holiday season has been fun! aside from the flu bug floating around our house, it's been way fun to have everyone home and around to play! Lots of relaxing and fun times! but now it's time to return to Logan. 

the bell boys!
