Gotta love this week!

Well this week has been great! First and foremost, I loved Twilight the movie. I was really nervous before I went and saw it because I didn't like the actor that they chose for Edward. However, he was very charming in the movie and I fell in love! I really enjoyed the movie and plan on seeing it again and buying it the day it comes out on DVD.

Second, you gotta love them Utes! It was a great game! This was great to finally get back at all my BYU friends and shoving it into their faces (mostly Jacquelyn and my Bro in-law). Zach is a BYU fan too so I had a great time with the win!

Third, I made it to my first JAZZ GAME of the season this year, it was a lot of fun and I love going to them and we have tickets for a few games coming up and I am so excited.

Fourth, The new love of my life is my new laptop. I got a sweet laptop this week and I love it!

Finally, The reason for the this week. I love Thanksgiving. I have had a lot of chances this year to really see how blessed I am. The one thing I have really realized is how gratful I am for my tribulations. I have had some rough patches in the past little while and I can't even express my gratitude for my family, friends, and most of all my faith. I would have never gotten through the things that I did with out them. They continue to help me with my daily struggles and I don't know what I would do without them. I am so grateful for the the lessons they have taught me and I am stronger and more faithful person because of it. I will never know or understand how I got so lucky in life. I am so thankful this THANKSGIVING! HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

Update just for you Stacy!

Well first I will say meet Zach everyone...he's cute, he's fun, we've been dating a few months and I'm sure you'll be seeing more of him on here!

Second, on Halloween we went on a big group date to a haunted house. We went with my good friend Stacy and her husband Cameron. It was a blast and I forgot how much fun I can have with Stacy! While hanging out that night she informed me that I haven't updated my blog in a long time and that it is her pet peeve when people don't update their blogs. The funniest thing about this is that Stacy doesn't blog! So This is for you Stacy!

Well things have been going good, super busy, but really good. We had a great week-o-Halloween! We did lots of fun stuff like making carmel apples, candy, and carving pumpkins. Then we had a great weekend on our big group date and we went to a Brazilian restaurant last night and bowling with some other friends. The Brazilian Restaurant was so yummy, but a little to much meat for me. Zach loved it and of course he would because he served his mission in Brazil! Here are pictures of some of our fun week!

Messy day!

Eh...Yesterday was an extremely stressful day for me! Someone stole my wallet! It had all my credit/check cards, driver's licences, social security card, and all that good stuff. When I returned home whoever stole it had already buying stuff on one of the cards. So I was on the phone for like 5 hours yesterday with the banks trying to cancel them all and figuring out about identity theft and how I prevent that. It was seriously a mess! I would never wish it on anyone. Now I have absolutely no money to my name because all my bank accounts are on hold, its a good thing my mom and dad will be helping with money for the next little bit. Also, lets hope I don't get pulled over because I have no licence, and I can't get a licence until I get a new social security card! To say the least it was a very stressful and messy ordeal!
However, I did take my State Social Work Licencing test and I passed! Yahoo! I didn't think I was going to pass, but that was a great thing that happened yesterday!
Beyond yesterday has been nothing but pure chaos in my life! I have been so busy, and I feel like I am always running behind or have long to do lists in every spare minute I have! However, life is great and I am have a lot of fun with the craziness!

My latest obsession!!!!!

There have been so many things in my life that I love. This however, might mask them all! I am obsessed with the new yogurt place RED MANGO and SPOON ME. It is healthy yogurt and then you can mix in your favorite fruits and other things. Everyone knows that I am a huge ice cream fan and I just might like this more. It is so yummy and the best part about it is that its natural yogurt and it is healthy so I don't feel guilty. It sits really light in your stomach too, which we all know I have stomach issues so this is a major bonus for me! Did I mention it is so yummy that me and a friends will drive all the way to Fort Union or 4th South about 3 times a week to get it! If you have not tried it you really should! You will not be disappointed!

U of U!

So I thought after I graduated I would be done, I was wrong! I have been involved a lot with things dealing with the U the past week. First, I went to the first home game of the season against UNLV. You gotta love the Utes! It was a fun game and as always I am a proud and loud fan. This week I have made the final decision to apply for graduate school so I can become a Licenced Clinical Social Worker (aka a shrink). So I have been up at the U talking to previous teachers and advisors about how I can make my application, resume, and essays better. Even if I get into grad school I am not sure I am going for sure. There is a lot going on right now and who knows where or what I will be doing in a year, but I figure why not apply I can always turn it down later. Honestly who in the world would have ever thought...me...going to grad school...I guess we'll see, wish me luck!

Week-o-Camping

I went camping with my family this week. It was a lot of fun and really special to me. It was the first time I have been camping with my entire family since I was very young. It was my family's favorite thing to do until Jenny just got to sick to go anymore. We told a lot of funny story about out past camping/boating trips, which is always a great time when my dad tells them. It was also really fun to see McKay and Chayse as this was their first time camping. McKay was thrilled that he learned how to pee in the bushes and kept telling me that grandpa always told him to watch for bees when he was peeing. There were a few funny "incidents" that happened to, but to keep from embarrassing anyone I won't share...(that was for you Britt). Despite the freezing weather, it really was a great time. I love my family so much and I am glad that we are so close and that we are able to have fun in just about any situation. I love you guys!

Chayse and Mckay's new favorite this is to make funny faces at the camera... Chayse wanted to sit in the big camping chair so Jordan is sitting in her tiny chair...

Good ole Mom and Pops
Chayse loved wearing my hat, she didn't want to take it off
Chayse loves her Dad...She walks around all day saying "I want my daddy"

I love marshmallows...and Mckay looks scared to death in the pic
Just fishing at this nasty pond we found...McKay loves catching Frog Poop (aka Nasty Moss on top of the pond)

Love ya Sis
Trying to keep warm...at night it was freezing!
