I know....right?!?

So, my family came to visit me in good 'ol St. Geezy, and it was a marvelous time!! We picknicked, and karaoked, and it was pretty much amazing. So for one of the joyous activities that we participated in, I had my friend STK take our family pictures.... let me regress for one moment. Family pictures have always been somewhat of a trial for our family. There has yet to be a good one. One reason for this occurence is that my father (though we love him) DETESTS picture taking. Nobody really knows why because he's actually very photogenic. Anyway, during my youth anytime we went to go get our pictures taken somebody would inevitably end up in tears. Therefore, and henceforth I am proud to present a FEW of the FABULOUS pictures that my good friend Stook took. :) Also, here is a holler out to STK, not only did he take them for FREE but he had them edited and ready to go in less than 24 hours.... I'm not sure if i've ever mentioned it, but I really do have the best friends. I hope that all of you, everybody all of my family and cousins someday end up with the same kind of friends I've been blessed enough to have. Anyway. I had a marvelous time with my family....everybody tells me they are cute and fabulous. My oh-so humble response to those sorts of statements is: "I know...RIGHT?!?" mwah! love to all!

I haven't blogged in a really long time, so I thought I would just give a quick update about what is going on in my life. I am just running around like a chicken with my head cut off. :) I am working on filling out my mission papers. I am hoping to have them completed during Presidents Day weekend. I am working with my bishop here and the one from home so that I can leave from my home ward.

Everything else in my life is pretty much just chaotic and busy. But that's not always a bad thing-is it? ;) I got a little behind in school because I contracted pink eye and I wasn't allowed to go out into public, but I got that taken care of and now I'm just getting my feet underneath me. I'm taking a bunch of classes and I'm still doing student government. woot woot! :) I am on my friend Dewey's campaign to help get him elected as student body president for next year.

I am completely freaking out about this year ending to be completely honest with you. St. George has become home and I am very VERY comfortable here. I have a niche, friends, a home, and I've created a family here. I know my way around and I know pretty much everybody ;) Although I feel like I've accomplished (or will have accomplished) everything Dixie holds for me, I am incredibly reluctant to leave. I love it here, I love the college, my friends, my ward, the weather, the community.... I love all of it. I am very blessed that this was my first college experience. Very blessed.

Anywho... that's an update on me. I love you all very very much! TTFN! Ta Ta For Now!
