loving life

1. babies...namely this one (and her cute sister)

Her name is Chantelle Lorraine~Mac and Cam's second one.

bonus: she's cuddly!

She was blessed this Sunday.

2. institute: I had two classes this semester...

...which is too much but they were great.

Here's a highlight-we had a sub one day who played pictionary with us

so funny! (old guys getting excited over winning ='s awesome)

(yes that is Paul Green helping out. He was a needed addition to the class)

3. ASU/being manless...for now

I really do love ASU

(and the fact that I have a camera to document things like this)

Ma says that girls are poison until they turn 20...I've still got a while.

4. missionaries

This is Chelsea Wells the first day she got back from her mish to the historical sites in NY

I was standing in proxy of Abby...we are the same person after all :)

I love all of my other friends that have decided to go on missions.

I'm so so proud of them!...I could be better at writing though.

5. being a missionary

I have had so many experiences to share the gospel at ASU its crazy!

More in the last few months then in my entire life so far!

I'm so grateful to be at a place that allows that kind of experience.

6. spontaneity

For my buddy Nay Nay's b-day we went to Denny's...

at 4 in the morning!...it was early

(notice the shoes...earliness ='s confusion)

but totally fun and worth it

7. new hair cut

I've been wanting to donate my hair for a very long time.

so when I had a free saturday I was just going to go in to get my bangs fixed because they were driving me crazy!

I cut off a little more than that...

when I left the lady asked me if I was holding a rat...

..."no...uh, thats my hair" haha

classic

I didn't realize that you had to send in your hair yourself, but thats ok!

I sent in all 11 inches of it!

8. cousins...namely this one

Cole has been my buddy forever! We get so excited to hang with each other come time for thanks day (only every three years). It was so fun to play and to sing with this boy!...he is crazy good at anything musical. We spent a good 2 1/2 hrs in the chapel (of the church where we were having our lil reunion) singing songs that he would arrange on the spot. Piano. organ. doesn't matter, this boy is a prodigy I'm convinced! I love him...too bad he lives so far away in Vernon Hills, Illinois!

9. sisters

this is a pic from the reunion...

but I have loved having meg not move away like she wanted to this time last year.

Seriously, what a blessing! She is now married, getting her masters, and close to me!

In addition-she is getting us all healthy around these parts.

she's real fun

Thus ends my update for today...I've stalled from studying long enough!

Getting so excited for Christmas...16 more days!...(but who's counting?)
