Well Thanksgiving is over and I figured I'd bore you with yet another post. I seem to have done a LOT lately, but I figure it's good since this is also my journal. The morning was spent snacking and playing Speed Scrabble with all of my sisters. This meant lots of funny conversations, and a random game of Hide and Seek. The afternoon was busy with all the cooking, (I'm grateful for the chance to improve my cooking skills and learn some new recipes.) and running to my trusty neighbors to use their oven. (Thank you Warrens) After our Thanksgiving feast our cousins came for Pie and games. I may have even snuck some reading in. I have so much to be Thankful for (for example, not getting sick). I have a great family that will shortly include my first Nephew, I seriously can't wait for the little boy to get here. I have amazing friends who inspire me to be better. I have a job that I LOVE and little Pre-schoolers that teach me and make me smile. A Church that is true and a loving God. There is much much more but I wanted this to just be short. Happy Thanksgiving

This Weekend:

I didn't get a lot of pictures but here are a few:

Me, Rachel and Melinda at the Provo Olive Garden. I got lost trying to get there.... Big Surprise right?? I'm always getting lost.

My Sister Ashley and the empty chair had Carissa in it but she got sick. My mom was there too but she isn't pictured.

Picture from Min's girl Alyssa (I think that is supposed to be me) :)


Few Highlights

• New Moon and seeing the kid who played the 14 year old Joseph Smith in Work and the Glory
• Having a Waiter that was part of the Mafia ;)
• Talking about Goldilicious with Sarah and Alyssa
• Watching Miles and Ryland slide down the stairs like it was a slide
• Pepsi and Peanut M&M's
• Hearing my Favorite Story Again!!
• Winning at Ticket2Ride with a score of 143!!
• Winning at Boggle (better luck next time Adam)
• I Do Believe in Fairies!!
• Watching Nutcracker (only problem is every time I see it I regret not keeping up with Ballet, seriously Ballet is amazing and I am in awe of those who do it.)
• New Moon again..... (I may have gotten lost again on the way there too, I wasn't kidding when I said I'm always getting lost)
• Jacob Black is Hot
  

Can I just say that I am in awe of the power of prayer. I'm just so thankful for Prayer and the fact that our prayers are answered.......

Ramblings.....

It's 3:07 A.M. and yes that means I was just out watching New Moon, (Great Movie!!). I feel like it is the end of the week what with the stress of school this week. My geography teacher was sick 3 weeks ago, I found out by the letter on the classroom door. Well the day before my next geography class I checked my Weber E-mail... something I never do. I had a Red letter, when you get these you know it means business.... it was from the teacher saying class was cancelled do to illness, I'm thinking GREAT another day off. Well there are 2 brothers that are in my Geography class and I'm talking to them a couple days after my "cancelled" class, I jokingly ask how their 2 weeks off were and they look at me like I'm crazy. Yeah the email had been from the week before and long story short I missed the class, review and test. Luckily the Teacher is a great guy, really understanding and he extended the test for a couple of us. Only problem is, it took forever to get the review from him (thank heavens I got a copy from the girl who sits next to me just in case.) also when I went to take the test they told me it wasn't extended but I was welcome to take it and see if he accepted it. Today in class he didn't have it, oh the stress...... finally got it worked out and I'm done with tests and stress for the week. Now all that is left is fun stuff (minus CPR training in 3 and 1/2 hours). Hopefully the weather holds out enough for me to see my Cousins, see Adam, and make it back home safely for NUTCRACKER!!
