Valentines day weekend!

So my v-day weekend started out with a diagnosis of Mono :( my tonsils were all swollen and gross! I went to the health center and they gave me an antibiotic for my tonsils, but there was nothing they could do for the Mono. Fortunetally I was still able to move around and wasnt bed ridden, but because I had Mono i wanted to make sure I was still going to be able to have energy to drive down to Utah so I left on Wednesday!

Once I arrived at Aarons he had a cute little suprise waiting for me! He ordered P.F Changs and we had a candle lit dinner!

I havent had P.F. Changs for a really long time, it was really good! I liked the Changs chicken the best! the lettuce wraps were yummy too!

For my Valentines Day gift Aaron took me to Build-a-bear and let me build a bear! lol! It was fun! we both got to put hearts in it and do the little things to the heart before you put it in the bear! Once he was stuffed we dressed him! he tried on a few outfits before I decided on the one i like best!



I finally chose this cute little blue and grey sweatshirt for him! I didnt give him any pants cause there just werent any that looked good!

His name is A.J!


I dont remember which day everything happened but one day for lunch we went to a Place called the Mayan! its pretty cool place! you sit in what looks like a jungle and every half hour they have divers that show off and dive into a pool! its really cool! My meal was so big I ate some there and then Aaron and I had it for another whole meal later! it was insane! but it was yummy!


This is where they dive off into the water!

We had to wait a little bit until they opened! And we almost got eaten by this crazy hungry snake!



Saturday we went to Provo! It was fun! We went and visited the Provo Temple (thats number four for us!) and went to BYU basketball game! it was awesome! loved seeing the cheerleaders!






I had a lot of fun in Salt Lake City! I'm really glad my Mono didnt keep me from having fun this weekend!

Aarons!

Last weekend I went and visited Aaron in Utah! He's all settled into his new place in SLC, where he lives with his awesome cousin Josh! I had a LOT of FUN spending the four day weekend down there!! Here are a few pics from the trip!

I'm HERE!!

I'm in Rexburg! made the trip last Friday! Drove up with my dad! First impression: its freezing and the town is extremely small! My apartment isn't bad! My room is HUGE!! I LOVE MY ROOM!!! My dad helped me set it all up and get the few things I needed to make it perfect!! My roomates are really nice! Fede: from Florida, elementary ed major, Sophomore! Gina: from Florida, I dont remember what her major is! cause i just met her today! Lexi: from Iowa, elementary ed major, Sophomore! Amalitta: from Puyallup, Wa, freshmen dance major!! and then Sophia: from Jersey, for some reason i cant remember her major either!
All of the girls have been so nice! its awesome! we haven't had any problems yet!
I've gone to three days worth of classes now! egypt history is really interesting but its a 300 class so its going to be hard! the teacher is fun though! Ceramics sounds like its going to be the same as high school! its going to be pretty fun! Head drawing is going to be HARD! and intense! im scared! lol! BOM class is going to be really cool! the teacher is high on life! lol! I haven't had Art History 2 yet because the teacher cancelled class this week! and my art seminar class only meets a couple times during the semester so that doesnt seem like its going to be hard at all!!

Making chocolates at my Gpa's!

My sister Nick and I have started a holiday tradition of going over to my grandpa Bert's house and making turtles, chocolate covered caramels, fudge and cookies! This is the second year we've done it! It is a lot of fun to catch up with my gpa and learn new tricks in the kitchen from him! Best tradition we've ever started and I hope we continue it for many years to come!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!

I only get to say that once a year! and it always comes and goes by so fast! Birthdays really havent been special for me since age like 12. I never have bday parties because nobodys around on my bday. I'd love to have a huge party and celebrate me getting a year older! and all of the accomplishments I made during the year! But when it comes time to planning the party and actually going I get nervous, and I dont like to be the center of attention! Well in my mind I do but in reality, not so much! So I have this huge want for an awesome party but then again Im good without a huge party. Does anyone else feel the same way?
I'M 22 NOW!! WOW I'M GETTING OLD! ;)
On my birthday this year I went to lunch with my sister, nick and Aaron!! We ate at Panera bread. I had a really yummy bbq chicken salad! After we went to Aarons house and played my sisters bday present to me, Killer Bunnies! It was fun to sit and chat and try and get carrots and kill bunnies! We played Killer bunnies all the way up until it was time to go to dinner!

My first present of the day! Killer Bunnies!

Aaron and I ready to play!

Around 4:30 we left Aarons and went to the Melting Pot for dinner with my dad, Step mom, step brother, Katelyn and Nick!










The food was AMAZING!!! It took us 3 hours to eat it all! It was hard to walk afterward! SO MUCH FOOD! it was worth every bite! SO YUMMY!!! can you tell I loved it?! the chocolate fondue was my favorite!

After dinner we headed home! Once we got to my moms house Katelyn and Nick came in and hung out for a little while! when they tried to drive back to my dads house the Van wouldnt start! the lights were left on :( they needed to jump start it! AND of course none of us have jumper cables! SOOOO i called up my guy and he came to the rescue and jumped the van! After Nick and Katelyn went back to my dads house, I spent the rest of my bday talking to Aaron outside by his car!!
Overall not the best bday but not the worst either! it was fun to hang out with my sister and Nick as well as Aaron of course!! I ate some amazing food!! And got a few awesome gifts!!
