oh, julia....

you make me wanna cook. i'm so into the baking thing, but i could def use some practice in the cooking area.

and julie, you make me wanna keep blogging....and marry a cutie like yours in the movie.

i'm addicted.

i'm trying to read them all before the new movie comes out...i'm on book 3 right now. i know, i'm so 1999. oh, and i'm in love with ron weasley. our kids would be adore.

what a week.

christmas week was a-mazing....

we:

made lots of goodies

ate lots of goodies

went caroling

opened lots of presents

listened to lots of eric hutchinson and glee

watched UP, Runaway Bride, Forever Strong, and White Christmas

laughed hysterically

b & i taught nursery...i love cleaning crayons out of kids mouths. oh wait, no i don't.

worked it out at the YMCA...circuit class is brutal.

seasons greetings...

from the houston airport.

today was a good day...

• i got 100% on my final over apostles and prophets
• b & i watched "the sing-off" on hulu. it's way good-go bubs!
• i only have one final left
• our fave fhe boy came over to hangout before we all leave
• i got the recipe for cafe rio salad dressing
• b & i started organizing our stuff for the move/vacation

one week...

'till b&i are in indiana! i even wore my iu shirt today to celebrate.

happy hanukkah!

today is the 1st day of hanukkah. we take great pride in our jewish noses.

2 weeks.

christmas is getting so close! one week left of school...i think i can, i think i can. aaaand it looks like my wish for a school christmas party came true-my doctrine and covenants class (taught by bro. ferguson's brother) is having a party on wed! i'm bringing my delish peanut butter cookies and i'm so excited.

on another note, anyone watch the biggest loser finale? i only read about it, but i was so glad rebecca won the at home award- loved her. i'm alright with danny winning the whole thing, i mean he did look super good, so way to go losers!

oh glee...

the season finale was perfect. i loved it.

yikes.

this semester has flown by! i can't believe i'm already preparing for finals (barf) and getting ready to check out of my apt and check into my new one (sooo excited).

what ever happened to end of the year parties? ya know like the good ol days when you'd bring cupcakes that your mom had made and eat with your classmates and talk about your plans for Christmas. i vote we bring back the parties and get rid of pesky finals. they're so gay, seriously.

brynn and i fly home in 12 days! watch out southern indiana! did i mention we leave at 5:30 am? i hope the people on our flight like rap and justin bieber. it's gonna be wild.

oh hey when did everyone start getting pregnant and engaged? i feel like i'm still 10 and everyone else is getting all big and grown up.

if you love pandora as much as me, you've gotta listen to ingrid michaelson radio. a-mazing. i also like carrie underwood radio...don't judge. country is kinda cute sometimes.

16 days til Christmas! yessssss. i am sooo excited to party with the dalby's and mangum's!

what did Adam say on the day before Christmas?

it's Christmas, Eve.

ha, gotta love a good seasonal joke.

tonight, brynn and i went over to taylor's to watch the Christmas broadcast (i loved it) and make dinner & dessert (which was delishh). it really got me in the holiday spirit and made me think about how grateful i am for Christ's birth and all that he did and continues to do for me. i really have been so blessed. i love this time of year and i can't wait to see my cute fam in 2 weeks!

20 days...

'til Christmas! hey santa, if you're reading this blog, i love you and i would love an A on all of my finals. k thanks.

the biggest loser season finale is this tuesday-i have loved this season and i really want amanda to take the win.

the glee finale is this wednesday-ahhhh how am i gonna go 4 months without glee??

idaho's temps are redic. negative temps are not ok in my book. why didn't i go to school in arizona?

target has such cute stuff this season. i mean seriously adore clothes. wtg target.
