Holiday




I cannot even believe the holiday is over.  Just yesterday I was packing to go to Utah for a break and now I am back already sitting on my bed doing my Nutrition homework....why cant school go that fast?  It was such a great time thanks to the infinite hopsitatlity of Drew and Jessie.  They were great, they made sure Ayla and I had an extremely comfy futon and air mattress to sleep on, they made sure we ate and not just ate but got enough fruits and veggies and drove us whereever we had plans.  They were great and I owe them alot, so thank you!
Most of the pictures from pie night and thanksgiving are on Jessica's blog, so I will let those pictures stay there. As for my other days I spent time with Jordan and Ayla and had a wonderful time, as always.  We went to the lights in Salt Lake and it was beautiful and once again a great memory.

Coffee Cake Success

Today I made coffee cake for the first time from a recipe on recipe.com, and I might say that it was delicious.  Not only that I got to eat it with two of my favorite people out here in Idaho-Peter and Jill. I love family=)

Pleasant Surprises: Flowers, Slippers, Scarfs and Snow!

 On Monday I came home to pleasant surprise of flowers on our living room floor addressed to me.  After a couple of texts to the suspected leaver I found out that Tag Knowles left them for me, just because.  Each time I receive flowers I cant help but think of Elaine off of Seinfeld thought process, she gets flowers and the voice over is her thinking "Great, how long do I have to hold these." Not that I agree with her, but that line always pops into my mind. I love flowers.
Another pleasant surprise is when  Molly got me a pair bright yellow soccer slippers, which I wear everywhere in my apartment, she got herself matching purple ones, and they make me smile every time I wear them.
  Now that the season has ended I decided to make Molly a thank you scarf, so in my moments of needed homework breaks I would work on some of the scarf and I am quite happy with the final product.
Lastly today on Saturday I woke up to a small blizzard.  Snow is everywhere, it had melted since last week, but I believe this go around it is here to stay.
  Overall this week has been one of pleasant surprises=)

SNOW!

This week was no fun with the finishing up of midterms to my team losing in the first round of the tournament it just was not a good feeling week. But mother nature, knowing that I was down, decided to send snow.  There is something so magical about snow, perhaps it is because the world is enveloped in white so it looks serene and clean.  Snow makes everything quite and muffled and the colors on clothes, cars and buildings stand out more.  I love snow, and I cannot wait until there is enough of it to go sledding on, sledding has become one of my favorite snow activities because of my sledding experience last year. But  here is Zach and I just goofing off with the camera enjoying our snow moments.=)
