Yesterday was plain awful...

...and it was only Tuesday!
Events of the day...

I wake up and my computer isn't finishing the security scan (oh and I'm pretty sure I have a virus it just hasn't done anything but take up space as far as I can tell...)

Then as I'm finishing laminating my stressful PETE212 signs my shoe breaks... Not too bad, they were old shoes but now I have to walk around campus barefoot (Not that I actually minded that)
An hour later while I was in dance class my dance shoe broke, now this was getting annoying!
Then I had to go to the computer lab to do some homework (I was on campus from 8:00-6:00) so I ended up leaving for the creamery on ninth...
All I wanted was some french bread... would you believe they didn't have any!? So I rode from the McKay Building to the Creamery for nothing!!!

I then decided I was going home to drop off my school stuff and then I would ride my bike to Smiths for some french bread, luckily they had some. On my way back home with french bread in tow part of my bike seat broke off!!
I then proceeded to make dinner, I had no time to spare I was meeting with the bishop at 7:30. I put all the stuff for spaghetti sauce into my blender and it wouldn't start! How frustrating right!? As my mom said when I was on the phone with her (This has to tell you how upset I was I HATE talking on the phone!) When it rains it pours...

I can only hope today will be better...

Summer

I have been asked so many times what I am doing this Summer and really I have nothing to do, no classes and no job so I am free to do a whole lot of nothing with occasional activities thrown in so here is what I have been busy doing...

My family moved to Utah and until they have a place to put it I get to keep the piano in my house so I have been practicing and, hopefully, improving...
My wonderful Aunt Angie helped me to make a swimsuit!
I decided I was going to learn how to decorate a cake so I made a cake, a fondant, and frosting and this is what my first attempt ended up looking like... (It didn't taste so bad either)

Trying new hair styles and nail styles
(So I haven't tried this yet but I will when my hair is longer)
Making cards and super cute book marks

I have also been reading a lot of books (almost a book a day) I'm about out of ideas for what to read so if anyone has any ideas please let me know!!!!

Oh and Happy 7-11 day Hope you all enjoyed your slurpee's I know I did!

Anniversary

So here are the pictures I promised from grandma and grandpas anniversary...

Here is grandma and grandpa dancing! It was so cute...

Can't forget my adorable cousins, I love these kids!

Grandma and Grandpa with me...

Here is the amazing cake that Uncle Andrew made (He is great right?)

Megs stole my camera for a little while and when she came back she told me that she took pictures of important things so that I wouldn't forget them while I was at college.
Of course there is a picture of Megan...

One of Joe...

One of my father...

One of my mother...
and last but not least one of Jesus Christ. Isn't she so cute to make sure I don't forget him?

One of the things I love about Morgan... my grandparents were celebrities for a few days!

Spring is a Wonderful Thing...

I LOVE spring semester!!! I have the best classes and it is just great. I had a group presentation for my Writing 313 class and we had to come up with a lesson plan for fifth graders that was centered on poetry. We decided to teach about the Korean Sijo in comparison to the Japanese Haiku. It is a three line poem with 14-16 syllables in each line. The first line sets up the situation. The second line is called the turn and helps to develop the story. The last line is a twist in the phrase, meant to surprise the audience. Here is an example that we found to show the class and then the Sijo that we invented as a class...


Untitled

A single sole was lost today, deep in the river Yalu,
Thrashing, twisting, torn to shreds with color quickly fading.
On the bridge a small boy laughs, holding our his empty shoe.


Skadoosh!
The family was in the car the kids squished in the backseat.
Pushing, poking, punching, fists flying, emotions were high.
Parents turned back to sleeping kids and turned Kung Fu Panda off.


I managed to sprain my foot yesterday... Yes my foot not my ankle. Imagine that I make it through the ice and snow in the winter and the rain messes me up!

For Mom

I love you mom, Happy mother's day!!!! :)

I've watcher you dear mother each day of my life. I've seen how your smile through the joy and the strife. I've needed your love and have known you were there. I've seen how you help to bring answers to prayes. The world that surrounds me is blind and unsure, But with you as my mother, I'm safe and secure. Then I wonder why, and give thanks that I was chosen to be your daughter.

R.I.P.

Goodbye dear tree...
This tree has been around for as long as I can remember. But recently grandpa decided he needed to cut it down. It has always been a favorite for the grandchildren and it will be sad to have it gone for good.

Everyone thought that it was a really bad idea to cut the tree down because it had been growing for so long and surrounded the power lines. But grandpa still wanted to cut the tree down so the men all gathered at grandma's Saturday morning to cut down the tree.



Some great times were had with that tree and on that swing! It's sad that it is being cut down.








While the guys were cutting down the tree I was able to watch these two cuties! They are so adorable and it was fun to spend some time with them! Aneesa was so funny and Chevelle is so sweet and so much fun to listen to after she warms up to you. She talks about just about anything she can think of, I love being around my little cousins. I am so lucky to have such an amazing family and that we can be so close to each other.
