Last Week of Winter!

Today=HOURS of Interior Design. Wish me luck.

I only have 7 hours of class left of this semester!!!! And two of those hours are volleyball. Heck yes. 

Now, back to last weekend.

We went to the Saturday morning session with Lively (He served in our ward back home) and his roommate Ben.  While waiting for Nick to get our tickets, guess who we see! DeAndra's brother who is serving in Salt Lake.

We then headed home so we could catch the afternoon session, that I slept through.

Marissa and I made cinnamon rolls that night for Sunday morning.  My first time making them without an aunt, grandma or mom.  They turned out pretty well.

We headed up to Salt Lake for the afternoon session (tickets courtesy from KC).  Javier, Pepe and Junior got tickets but didn't have a ride so we were going to take them anyway.  It was nice to be able to go in.  We got to visit with Judy and Gary for a bit but there are so much more security stuff that we didn't get to meet anyone.  Here they are afterward, they were looking for someone for a couple minutes but they never found them.  Still don't know who they were looking for. ha

Monday I bought roller blades!!!!!! We are so good.

I just have to mention again that I met one of the sexiest men on Tuesday.  :) 

Friday I had a date with Ben (Lively's roommate).  We went to dinner, played mini croquet at the Provo Beach Resort (I was TERRIBLE) and watched  a movie after.  It was tons of fun.  I hadn't even heard of this beach resort place so it was a good first time going.

Kelly Orgill (my first roommate) had her birthday last night.  Her sister in law made Cafe Rio food. It was delicious.  She also made a completely homemade oreo ice cream cake (okay, so the ice cream wasn't homemade).  It was soooo good.  It was good to see Kelly again and Taylor Cicotte (also from freshman year).  

Now I should start my work, huh?  Wish me luck to not procrastinate and actually get everything done fast!

Catching up before it's too late

Saturday night we headed back up to the Bottomless Pit. It was a huge group of people but still went well.  We had a bon fire going (thank goodness because it started snowing and it was freezing) and had lots of stuff to burn.  We even found a free couch that looked way sweet when it burnt.

Marissa and I went to the guys' ward (my freshman ward) to hear Zach talk. When we were moving to sit down by the bishop's wife she says, "Oh Javier! You have some cute girls with you today! It is refreshing to see such pretty faces!" I love her! haha She asked us if we were in the ward and I said I was in it last year. She just freaked out saying she knew she knew me but couldn't remember if I was in the ward now or in the past.  She asked who was older out of Marissa and I and couldn't believe Marissa was 3 and a half years older than me.  Throughout sacrament she made the funniest comments. Zach's talk was awesome and he made our whole row cry when he "sweated out of his eyes."  It was awesome to see the bishopric again.

Monday night we went with them to Brother Quist's (one of the counselors in their ward) house for FHE. I love their family.  We played Beatle's RockBand, had a Q&A with Junior (really cool), held their frog (made me miss the ones that are on our sidewalk in the summers), whooped Zach in arcade basketball and had brownies and homemade ice cream (we had it last year and on the way up to his house I was hoping we had it again.)

He wanted to take a shot at carrying Junior. 

His wife pretty much had a heart attack thinking he was going to ruin his back. 

We had a game last night. First round of tournament and won! They only had four girls on their team and two of the girls were super nice. One of them was on our team last year and she is the sweetest.  I don't know when our next game is but I am excited!

I am definitely sad about the game tonight. I will miss Jimmer.

I went to Oedipus the King with Preston (the guy I went on the triple blind date with).  It was an interesting play and a fun night.

Long Weekend= Long Post

Can I just say I LOVE my four day weekends?? They give me plenty of time to get work done but also have tons of fun!  Thursday night we had a basketball game. Which we won.  It wasn't the best game but we survived.  One of the refs reffed the last game that we got totally beat up in.  He apologized to Marci after saying that that game was the worse he has ever officiated.  We thought that was nice of him and could tell it had been bothering him for the past week. We watched Aaron's water polo game afterward... they lost but Aaron did awesome!

 Marci and I sent off a card for Cecil's birthday. He was a regular at the BBQ since day one.  He is the sweetest old  man and has the best life stories.  At his birthday next Sunday at Wapato Point Cellars he is giving a presentation about his life. It will be awesome but I am so sad that I will miss it!

Marissa and I had TONS of energy the rest of the night. We cleaned our room and stayed up until like 3 or 4? We had so much energy that we went to WalMart. And still had energy after... When we finally went to bed we got plenty of sleep for the next day and woke up at 11:30.  We ran a few errands and played catch!! We got a little sun burnt and you can start to see my freckles coming back!!! One of my favorite parts about springtime.  After that we helped Javier with his bike.  He needed to take it to the shop so he can order a part.  The shop was sweet! It had mini (Marissa and my size) four wheelers and bikes. And they had dogs. Which I have missed.

We then went home to get ready for a triple blind date.  Stacey and Fuzzy set up a date with Marissa, Stacey's hometeachers (Preston and Erik), Preston's brother and Mallory Hart that was in my ward last year.  We went to the gymnastic meet. BYU lost. and got cupcakes at Sweet Tooth Fairy.  They were awesome. (and recognized by Rachel Ray).  They then took us home and we went and hung out with Javier, got a movie and watched it with Nick. We watched Devil. It was pretty good. Not the scariest and it had an alright story line.

We got up on Saturday at 9 to help Nate coach Mike's basketball team since Mike had to go home for the weekend.  Those parents were terrible! They kept talking about how much the refs sucked, how we didn't really know what we were doing and one parent came down to the huddle and told the kids to tell the refs to call 3 seconds. They were just annoying, and we lost the game. Sorry Mike!

After we got back we took showers to get ready for the last BYU home basketball game.  They played awesome.  Such a good way to end.

 Jimmered.

 The man with the best arms.

 The seniors.

After the game we went and hung out again. Zach made some chocolate sheet cake that I of course had waaaay too much of. But it was delicious and I hadn't eaten like anything all day so I think that it was okay. Pepe on the other hand thought it was disgusting,  me eating that much.

We helped with Junior's laundry and while there I sat in a rolling laundry basket.  Junior would ram me with his chair and launch we across the room.  It was fun but always super freaky because I couldn't steer and there was no way to tell where I would go.  After doing that a couple times and having him stuff me under a table, i decided I should get out before I broke myself.

Saturday night we went to the Classic Skates for Disco Night (Javier was invited by another friend for her birthday and so he invited us!)  We looked awesome. Javier, Junior, Marissa and I dressed  up and Stacey and Fuzzy showed up later.

 Junior has the BIGGEST mouth out of anyone I have ever met.

We got it once. And we were sooo proud of ourselves. :)

Stake Conference was today and it went really well.  Plus, it was at 1 so we got plenty of time to sleep in. I didn't wake up at all during the night and didn't set an alarm. I was lucky I woke up at 11:45 or else I have no idea when I would have.  We took short naps which I didn't need but wanted and headed up to Beckie's for dinner! It was delicious. Of course, Beckie is an amazing cook.  She made pizzas and wacky care. SO good! Thanks again Beckie!

Now off the studying for a test I have to take tomorrow. Woo hoo!
