I'm freee!

I am now a free person, on multiple levels.

First--School. Done. 

How has a semester seriously passed already??

Second--I got a car. 
(Can I get a hallelujah.) 

It all happened really quick! I decided I wanted a car, and within 4 days I had one--all registered and everything. 

I tend to make decisions real quick...and once I decide something, I make it happen. My mom teases me about it. She wants me to just be patient...nope. (: 

I sure am going to miss these roommates of mine. :( They've been so good to me. Everything I needed and more! (Hillary is missing here in this pic)
Me and Hallie rented a puppy!!! $15, and more than worth every penny. They deliver the little guy right to you, and you just get to spend an hour in heaven.




Parker was in town from New York, yayy! He is the link between all of us. So we got to be together--me, parker, pari, michelle, corbin, and my dad!
Parker was touring BYU with the Hockey coaches. They want him really bad, and I'm with them on that. (: Wish he would come here, but he ended up signing this week with Stony Brooke University! SO proud of him.
We got to go on top of the SWKT (:
Got to spend some time with my dad in Park City!

And test driving this beaut (:









Here she is again! Connected our souls through some yoga (: 
Warning: do not try this at home.
There is a high risk of falling through the sun roof.

My cute missionaries. Adore them. Sister MacMillan is from South Africa, and I think God sent some snow our direction just for her! She was thrilled (:


 I have the nicest friends. Michael brought me this Finals care package!! The best.
 It even included Creme Brulee, which was a first for me. Yum!
 I FINALLY got to see Janelle!!! She fed me religiously on my mission while I was serving in the YSA ward. I love her to death. She was selling her makeup at a women's expo at UVU, so I got to go see her (and get my makeup done (: ).
 Sushi night with mission friends!!
I literally was the only single one. hahah

 The next day, I drove up to see my Katie in Woods Cross!! Love her. We shopped (as per usual) and got gelato.
 Probably the greatest sunday school lesson I've ever been in. Jake had us pair up with someone we don't know, and stare into each other's eyes for 30 seconds each, and send them a 'message.' Hahah it was a looong 30 seconds, but cool. Then we wrote on post-it notes acts of charity and stuck them on the walls all around the room. It's hard to describe...but it was an incredible class and really made an impact on me.
My dad's work gave him a Fitbit, which in turn, he gave to me (: looks a little dorky with my watch...but I love it! It tracks your physical activity and all sorts of things. Also, it has a vibrating alarm--which my roommate is a fan of (; no more waking her up!

Exciting things are happening, my friends.

This weekend, I'm flying out to D.C. with Lauren for Jaelyn's wedding!!

I'm so excited, I can hardly stand it.

I talked with my bff Siddhi, and she's coming from LA to visit me in August! yayy can't wait (:

and....that's all I have to say.
bye.

hoppy easter

What a lovely past few weeks it's been!




Nancy, a lady we did service for in my mission, is the sweetest and sent me multiple letters and packages! I'm getting soo stoked to go and visit my mission (:
Just look at these beauties! I was a little overly excited about this local-grown spinach. 
Got dinner with Madaleine Dame (: Korean food, of course!
I've been making little salads to go, to take with me and eat at some point during the day. You're supposed to do it in a mason jar, but the closest thing I have is my magic bullet container haha
Some great quotes and typography:


April fools shenanigans! Suzanne and Hillary had fun. I crawled through a whole in the strings to keep them in tact for Lauren when she woke up (: 

Yayy, missionaries! I love this bunch. They're going to the West Indies and Calgary Canada


Over Easter weekend, my mom went a little overboard with the waffle iron. Waffle hash browns and cinnamon rolls (:
General Conference was amazing!!
It was a little sad to me to hear the people oppose the Prophet and Apostles during the sustainings. I do think this picture is clever though (:
My Aunt Marcy posted this picture. It kills me because on the back of the couch, it totally looks like a big chocolate bunny sitting there. Am I right? But if you look closer, it's my Uncle Todd! Crazy.
Had a little bunny photoshoot with Libs and Pepe. I love this candid photo I took, it looks so model-esque.


We had dinner at Aunt Laurie and Uncle Jeff's house! Always fun to gather and hear Grandma's random Easter trivia questions (: And play a round of Skip-Bo, of course.
Jayci is quite the little artist!!! I am so impressed. Here's one of her 'practice' drawings, that she didn't like (hence the X through it). But it is seriously SO good! Tempted to bribe her to do my art homework...
Cousins! We got to Skype Matthew, who is in prison. So nice to see him.
The whole group!
Last day selfie with my sisters. I love them.

Things are going really well. I'm so bad at remembering things if I don't have it documented with a picture...

but I'm happy (: Can hardly believe summer is 2 weeks away!
