4 Months

So here’s the thing, the last real update about myself (which I know everyone is dying to hear about MOI) was probably sometime in August. So here is your really quick wrap up of the last 4 months or so.

September:

  • Started fall semester
  • Had a birthday
  • Rebecca got baptized

  • Took my first round of midterms

  • Went to the Miley Cyrus concert … be jealous


October:

  • Watched Dave rock the St. George Marathon (along with a few other favorite people I know that ran it)
  • Desired to run a marathon
  • Best Friends Kelsey and Riley got married
  • Lost desire to run marathon since that would require running many days in a week
  • Swamped in school
  • Dyed my hair dark (Well I didn’t. I let me skilled friend Julie do it)
  • Saw another loss in Lavell Edwards Stadium. Boo again.
  • Spent Halloween weekend with Dave and Karlie since the Parental Unit went to Texas
  • Jeffrey got baptized (sadly I didn’t get to go)


November:

  • School … boy I wish BYU had fall break

  • Saw Blindside
  • Celebrated Best Friend Julie’s birthday
  • Loved the Quickutz sale
  • Went to LOTS of reviews
  • Turned in last quizzes and assignments
  • Audrey Marilyn Walton joined the family (December 14th)
  • Took 5 finals
  • Celebrated Kelselyn’s birthday
  • Celebrated Karlie’s birthday
  • Found out Dave and Kar are having a boy
  • Realized I have lots of loved ones who celebrate birthdays in December
  • Went to the dentist for the first time in FIVE years (that’s gross, but I’m proud to say I have excellent teeth still)
  • Almost have the desire to run again
  • Watched BYU trounce on a PAC 10 team. Booya!
  • Celebrated Christmas
  • Counted down to the New Year with Dick Clark
  • Was slightly unsure if Dick Clark was going to make it through the countdown
  • Am excited on what 2010 will bring

It's Julie's Birthday!!

This girl is truly a superstar. I mean come on ... check her out.

I'm not even sure I can put into words how much I love this lil' lady. She pushes me and helps me to do things I didn't even know I was capable of. Evidence #1 in the picture below ...

If not for Julie there would have been no half-marathon under my belt.

Julie is also one of those people that knows exactly what to say to make me laugh, snap out of a cranky mood, stop being irrational, etc. etc. She's a miracle worker I say!

Julie - I know I say it all the time, but I am so glad that we randomly decided to live in a cinder block overpriced dorm room together in AP English class. It is one of the best decisions I have made. I hope you have the best birthday ever because you deserve it! Love you!!

Isn't she the cutest?

It's Mom's birthday today. Just giving her a cyber birthday shout out (even though she doesn't read my blog). Mom's the best and I don't know what I'd do without her. Love you Mom!

Doesn't she look adorable in her sun hat at Sea World?
