Sunday Drive

Sunday was such a beautiful day that my mom and I decided to go for a little drive up Monte.  The little girls were here hanging out so they came along too. Since it's flooding around here we decided to check out the reservoirs.

Our first stop was the Woodruff Reservoir

I always thought it would be fun to get a tube and float down the spillway

But the landing would be a little rough.  If you notice the water would shoot you into the air and then straight into the rocks below.

Our next stop was Birch Creek reservoir.

If you want to actually see the reservoir you have to hike up a little hill to get there.  We took a break at about halfway for some pictures.

 

Jumping + Wind = Crazy Hair

 Yeah for us!

On our way home we decided to stop and take some pictures of this old trailer.  If you didn't know any better you would think it was the water that had destroyed it

It was a great day!

School is out!

I have been going to school for almost a year straight!! I finished my last final today and this how I feel about it.

(PS turn up the volume! =D)

Locked Out

So it's been a while! Sorry about that. I just haven't had much time, and I haven't had anything happen that is really blog worthy.  Except for our Disney Cruise, but in order to show the amazingness of our trip, I need time to make it perfect.

Anyway..... Brian and I decided that we were sick of looking at cinder block so we went out and bought some plants. We decided to pot the plants out on our balcony because I would probably make a mess inside. So out on the balcony we went.

Here is my pretty flower before we potted it.

 Here is Brian's weird tree plant

Brian filling his pot with dirt


















Yeah for dirt.... Now lets water them.....

But how can we get water when our door is locked?!?!




















In my excitement to pot my plant, I had closed the door on my way out.  Our doors aren't like normal doors and they lock automatically. Neither one of us had our keys. Who needs keys to pot a plant?

Neither one of us had brought a cell-phone and even if we had who could we call? Our window was locked shut so there was no way we were breaking in that way. Could we climb down??!?!

Sure if you wanted to break your leg (ignore me look at the height from the top balcony to the ground)

How about breaking down the door?

That didn't work either

Next best option..........Talk to the next door neighbor who speaks very little English



He gave me his phone and said "wait"

So I did and he walked all the way over to the main office to tell someone we were locked out.  When the guy came to unlock our door, I heard our neighbor say "balcony" and then our neighbor opened the door for us.  The guy that had the keys gave us a look like "how in the heck did you lock yourselves out of your apartment on your balcony"  then asked us to pay him a dollar for his services.

Best Halftime show ever!!

We sort of like Aggie basketball around here. The game yesterday started at 9:00 p.m.  Brian went over at 2:30 p.m to wait in line. I joined him at 4:30 p.m. It was a long afternoon but well worth it because we got front row seats. And it's a good thing too because Jean's Golden Girls performed at Half time.

If you have no idea who they are, you are totally missing out! Jean's Golden Girls are women ages 50-93 years young. Collectively the women have 480 children, 1170 grandchildren, 250 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great-grandchildren.

Here is there dance from last night.

The only thing that was dissappointing about the dance was Jane Petty was sick.  Who is Jane you might ask?  Well she is a 93 year old lady who has got some moves and can do the splits! Don't believe me..... watch this video from a couple years ago.You can watch the whole thing if you want or just fast forward to the end when she does her thing.

Back To School

  Once upon a time, there was a girl.  This girl was going to school at USU.   It was the first week of classes and the girl decided she needed to go buy her books.  So she skipped and twirled her way to the bookstore. But the bookstore saw her coming and took her for all she was worth.  The girl was sad that she had just been robbed, so she decided to go home and eat a PB and J. But on her way out of the bookstore she saw a man shuffling towards her. His hands were in fists and his eyes were in little slits. As he got closer she heard him muttering, "don't trust them, don't trust them. Can't trust them, DON'T TRUST THEM."  The girl was scared at first, but soon realized the man had just come from either A) the registrars office or B) the advising office. 
Moral of the story is..... Don't trust USU

Wonderful news!!

Yeah!!! I just had to post this because I am soooooo excited!!! I PASSED BIO-MECHANICS!!! Uhh I hated that class so much! If my teacher had given me the option to get some disease like Ebola and if I survived the disease I would pass the class, I would have gladly taken that option.

But my teacher didn't give me that option so I had to suck it up.  And don't you worry as soon as I took my final I bolted out the doors and screamed "GET OUT OF MY LIFE!!!" and I may or may not have done a little happy dance =D

Christmas Trees

Over Thanksgiving break my mom asked me if I would help her put up her Christmas trees and I said sure.

It started out with the windows....
