"Don't worry... her heart's just imploding"

So the ward temple square trip is on Saterday, and I am so totally stoked!!!!!!!!! I really want all my favorites and I to stick together for the day, so that we can have a rockin' good time. My favorites include: Talmage, Tim, RHB, Andrea, Ashley (pink and blue), Danica, Jamie...really its my whole family home evening group. We shall laugh, play, eat, and go sight-seeing. Can I wait? Of course not, why are you even asking???!!!! I don't know, I thought you were joking. Well, I wasn't.

Home Adventures

We got home late Monday night, or should I say very early Tuesday morning... about 2 AM California time. Anyways the highlights of the break were:
Tuesday- sleeping in, seeing, my family, seeing Adam Cook, going shoping with Mom and getting SUPER cute stuff.
Wednesday- going on a walk... without a jacket. just shorts and a t-shirt. and getting food assignments. Mine were drinks, green bean casserol, and pumpkin pie. Judith and the kids came over too, and it was super fun. baby Justin has blond hair now, instead of black thicknesses.
Thursday- Thanksgiving. tasty everything, and so much derbey pie! Thanksgiving nap, and another walk. we then rented Nany McFee and Big. We watched them both, along with a little Spider Man II that happened to be on TV. I love Toby Mguire!!!
Friday- this was a nice day. I taught Kellie and Carlie a lesson for my Book of Mormon class. We hung out with Megan a little bit, then we went to the hill park! We played a craxy game where me, Mom, and Kellie were throwing two frisbees, then Dad came in the mix, along with a football. That was really fun. Then Kellie and I threw around a baseball. My pitching arm is still alive. We had leftovers for dinner, followed by Eloise at Christmas. Then Mommy and I went shopping a little, and now here I am.

Somthing that is weird about being home is that I miss BYU. I miss all my friends, because they are the closest friends I've ever had. I haven't said Boom Shadow nearly as much as I should. Or craxy. I love both places, so... I don't know. I'm glad I got to come home, and I'll be glad to be back at school.

life is going nice

So, I've looked at myself, and realized that I love being up here in college, with all this crazy weather, and all these amazing people who I love, and the fun things I get to learn and do. Although I am so glad I get to be here, I am way excited to go and visit Redlands. I want to wear shorts, see the mountains, go on a walk, teach the family "cricket owl," eat delicious home made food for days in a row, see fun people like all the young women, Adam Cook, and Kate Hill. I need some fresh stories about her. I'm excited to be able to drive places, and maybe even rollerblade a bit. The ride will be interesting to say the least, just because it will be very full in that car for those 9+ hours. But it will be fun. I hope we sing (charlie will sing with me).
So, I have come to adore Monday nights, just because I get to play with about 15 of my favorite friends. And usually I linger with a few others for a few hours afterwards. It's like a crazy tradition that has been since the beginning of the family: Tizight like unto a dish. It will be sad how the dynamics will change when my brothers start going on missions.
I had my first head-cuddle with my brother Tim yesterday. Blaine and Roxy don't love me enough to head-cuddle with me, but that's OK, because Tim's hair felt funny on my hair. Oh, last night, everyone went around and said something they like about me because I was spotlighted. There were some nice things, like I have a pretty smile, I dress nice, or I'm funny. Then there were some wierd ones, like I have a great imagination because I can build a fort(Tim), or I'm craxy (Ben), or I have duck lips sometimes (Talmage). Roxy said she likes the wierd sayings I make up, and Wayne said he likes all my nicknames, like Jules or Julikins.
This week is going to be crazy homework filled, if I could only get off the computer. I get to go observe children this week. I'm really excited about that.

There's a penny in our butter!

Oh....mymymymymymy....

Preference was so amazingly fun. I can't tell you how much fun we all had. Ice skating is a really good excuse to hold hands... especially Roxy's. I only fell once, and took out Talmage with me. But Ben was right there to help me up. It was great. Lots of other funny things happened, and some awkward things happened, like the combined efforts of Ben and I to almost kill a girl. oh, I felt so bad. Anyways, we had a blast. They had the comedy sportz team there, and we watched some of it. The ref was the bishop from Sons of Provo. He is real funny. On the ice, my hands started to freeze, so Ben let me use his gloves. H tried to teach me how to do that stop thing, but I was a failure. That's OK though, beause he held my hand to make sure I didn't die. Lots of other stuff happened. Thanks to the best brother in law, we got home some time before midnight. Talmage and Roxy and Ben and I stayed outside and talked (and did other random things) until about 1:45. It was really fun. I got lots of good pictures, and I can't wait to get them developed! I am soo obese! =)

waiting for tonight

I can't do it, I can't wait for tonight. I am way totally stoaked for preference!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ice skating with my three favorite people will be so magical. And HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHYLA!!!

Yay for writing until my eyes fall out

I really like writing my novel. I'm writing about my dreams, and so its kind of a flow of consciousness. I kind of just write and write, and I know a lot of poo is coming out, but I think some good stuff is coming.

My crew got off work early tonight, and Wednesdays are visiting hours. I usually get home when boys are not aloud anymore, so when I was walking to my room, I heard man voices and I was disturbed for a few seconds... then I realized I am stupid. Anyways, Roxy and I were sitting here writing our novels, when we get a knock at the door, and guess who it was? Red Head Ben! He came in the last like two minutes of visiting time, just to visit! I felt so special! Can you tell how excited I am by the amount of !!!!s Anyways, I cannot wait for Preferecne!!!!!!!!!!!!
