COWGIRL UP!


THis is my wonderful sister Danielle riding a bull! Dani loved doing this! She tried it twice while we were down in VEGAS this last weekend! So Vegas Breakdown:

1) We went to meet my lovely parents to go to the NFR (national finals rodeo)!
2) The NFR was swEET!! Cowboys are hotties and pretty talented individuals!
3) We met up with my Uncle Don and Aunt Gayla! My Uncle is hillarious and kept us laughing the whole time! He would say comments to our barely dressed waitress like.. "my compliments to your surgeon"...
4) Danielle and I ate at In-N-Out TWICE!! yess... that is a sight you will probably never see again!
5) I love my parents and their giving, generous characters!
6) Vegas was a much better experience this time around!

Happy Happy Happy THANKSGIVING!

sorry this post is a little late.. but i have been busy being homeless, moving from home to home (thank you Grandpa, Sarah and Dani), breaking up with stupid boys, dating cooler boys and livin LIFE!! :) haha this really has been a great time/transition in my life. I am finished with college (Weird!) and about to go to Africa (so excited!) and going home for the holidays (yess!) so i'm pretty carefree and reflective of the people that mean most to me in my life and cherishing this moment before i really have to "grow up" and get a job/apartment/meet new people/start life over... ahh scary!!

I went up to good 'ol Rupert Idaho and had a WONderFUL Thanksgiving! I stayed with my BFF's Brig and Mego Harper. It was a ton of fun with non-stop partying, basketball and soccer playing, good food eating, pal-bracelet crafting, movie watching, pottery making, santa watching, and Kenna playing Holiday. I just want to give one BIG shout out to Mama Harper for letting me come stay with you and your fam! It was just MAGICAL!

Vegas, Hooters, and Football... Can Life Get Better?

yes.. yes it can actually! I say that because Hooters was a joke not to mention very akward... and Vegas made me sick after about 5 minutes of being there!! But it was still a ton of fun! So here is the latest of shenanegans (sp) that I have been into! Student Teaching is DONE! I cannot believe it! It was so much fun and I was blessed to have such amazing roommates, friends, and sisters so close!


Hooters with Bailey and other student teachers... okay so the reason why we went to HOoters is because our church is called the "HOoters Church" because it is right behind this place.. and we live right across the street from Hooters so we figured we might as well as an "End of Student Teaching" treat! :) It was definitely a treat!



Vegas!! My friend Curtis texted me last Friday night at about 7 p.m. and asked if I wanted to go to Vegas with him and some friends in a few hours! ... Naturally I said yes and about 3 hours later we were gone! :) My wonderful, Amazing sister Danielle covered for me because that night was my apartment White Glove cleaning! Oh my goodness Dani i owe you BIG time!!! We stopped in St. George and hiked in some caves, walked the strip, saw a boxing match, and i SAW WILL FERRELL!!! Really we passed him in one of the Casinos and I was a foot away from him!!




My mama came to Utah to visit my sister Sarah and the newest addition to our Family... MAX ROWBERRY!! He is adorable and such a cutie with lots of hair (no surprise since all of Sarah's kids have had a ton of hair when they are born). My mom took the sisters out to Bombay House which is SUPER DUPER good! Thanks mama!




My very talented friend, Tyler, sings in a group called "Vocal Point". It's a 9 man A Capella group that is AMAzING!! If you have not checked them out on I-Tunes.. Do It! They are seriously soo good! I took Dani to that and we saw my other good friend Ryan and his date... Good times.. and..frozen yogurt with eveyone afterward!






Bailey and I went to a BYU Football game against the Airforce! It was a lot of fun to go to a game and BYU killed AFA! YAY!


New Moon Midnight SHOWING!!! Yay for Frozen Yogurt, home-popped popcorn and cutting in line! :) okay so i didn't really cut in the 2 mile long line to get into the theatre.. but there was a gap and I thought it was the end of the line... turned out it wasn't and was actually the very front...:)




Megan came and visited a few days ago! Me, her and Jeff went out to eat, went and read books at BOrders for a few hours and then went back to my place and talked/laughed till 2 a.m.! I really havn't laughed that hard and long in a really loooong time! Thanks guys! We read books about Africa which got us even more excited to leave in less than 2 months!!!
