Miranda's Wedding!














So last week was Miranda's wedding! We are all so excited for her and Brooks! I definitely miss having her as a roommate, but I'm so happy for her too! These are some pics. of the temple, them first coming out, and us waiting outside, I did get some pretty cute pics.! She looked so pretty and happy! It was such a nice day, after the temple she had a luncheon at the Entrada (where high school musical was filmed) and it was really nice, way good food! It's crazy to think that I'm getting old enough to where my friends are getting married, time flies by way to fast! I'm glad that I have the wonderful friends that I do! This day was good, but also a little sad as well because two of our roommates are now gone...Miranda is now married and is Mrs. Shurtliff, and our other roommate Brittney is getting ready to leave on her mission to New York in a month..We have so much fun and it's going to be weird without them in the apt.but i'm excited for them to go on with their lives. Brittney is going to be a great missionary! Shari and Gentry will still be living with me, so I'm glad not everyone is leaving, and we have a new roommate Chelsey and she is alot of fun too, I'm not sure if we're going to have someone else move in or not, but I'm sure we'll have fun with her too. Anyways Miranda's wedding was a nice day with all of us together for the last time..After the wedding and luncheon, we went Christmas shopping in St.George all day and that night we had tickets to the Forgotten Carols. I went last year and absolutely loved it! So I looked into getting tickets for all of us to go and it worked out perfect because we were all ready in St.George for the wedding. If you haven't gotten the chance to go see the forgotten caorls play, I would really recommend it. The music is beautiful!! And the message is soo good. It really makes you think of the true meaning of Christmas and how important Christ is in our lives. After the play I really reflected on my life and thought of how greatful I am for all the blessings that I have. I love the Savior and all that he has done for me! I know that he is always there for me and that he loves me. I need to do better to keep him close to me at all times and to love and serve others, because that is what Christmas is all about! I'm greatful for my family and how close we are, we have alot of fun together, and they've always been there for me. I'm greatful for my friends and the fun times that we have, they always keep me laughing! I'm greatful for this gospel and the love that it brings! Anyways this is a way long post...sorry, but I had a lot of thoughts after this day, it was just a really good day. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and remember Christ at this time of year!

Chopped my Hair!!

So I decided that it was time for a little change in my hair, I've been lazy so it's been a long time since I've done anything with it! I know I keep changing between short and long hair, but I guess I just can't decide which way I like it better! haha..Once I cut it I want to grow it out, but once it's starting to grow out I just want to cut it! Oh well, I like mixing it up! I also lightened it quite a bit so that was fun too! I went up north to visit Lace, so I had Lori cut my hair and I think she did a great job! and it was fun to visit with her!

Photo Booth















My roommate Chelsey has this photo booth on her computer that distorts your faces, needless to say we had alot of fun with it!

Cedar Christmas Parade

--What we were SuPposed to be originally, these are the costume stealers!

---The yellow chicken was the costume she wanted me to wear that I ditched!

-Before the parade, getting pumped up to be in it


-During the parade, me, shari, and eve, watching instead of being in it! ha.



-The costume Shari was supposed to wear, WAY creepy haha...


So Today was a huge parade in Cedar City. The newspaper said that no other city in the West has a parade like this haha..so it's a pretty big deal for Cedar and there was TONs of people there...Me and my roommate Shari were supposed to be a part of it, our ward was asked to do a float and so Shari volunteered me to do it with her, gotta love that! ha..so we were assigned to be 2 of the 3 muskateers. So we show up and the lady had decided to give our muskateer costumes away to these three boys, she thought it'd be better to have boys be muskateers, so she decided to fish around in her car and see what else she had for us. Well she came up with a chicken costume, and some weird joker costume! So we would have had to been split up by ourselves in way embarassing costumes! So when the lady walked away we just took off haha..we just couldn't do it, so we went and watched the parade instead! It was much funner to watch than be in I"m sure, we took pictures of the costumes we were supposed to be so obviously they found someone else to wear them so thats good! It was a way fun parade though, I was wishing that Maddie was there, she would have loved it! They had shrek, buzz lightyear and woody, the hulk, snow white, cinderella, the incredibles, and all sorts of celebrities, and they had a huge gingerbread man and rocking horse helium balloons it took 9 people to hold them down! It was way fun for the whole town!
It was a fun parade, but from the pics. you can tell why we decided to watch!

Never Think

This is from the movie Twilight!! I loved this song! And it's also cool because it was written and sang by Rob Pattinson who plays Edward the main character! Before I went to see Twilight I didn't think he was very cute and I thought they could have found someone cuter to play Edward, but after the movie I thought he was way cute! haha...so him singing and playing is a double bonus...Make sure to pause my music before you listen, it's a way pretty song!

Nat's Baby Shower!

So this last weekend I had a baby shower and a bridal shower one right after the other..It's crazy to think that my friends are starting to have babies and get married!! I feel so old...Alot of my friends from high school were down because it was Thanksgiving break so I got to see alot of them that I haven't seen in quite a while. It was so fun to catch up and visit with them. We talked about all the fun times we had in high school, we have so many fun memories! This is at Natalee Hanson's baby shower and then I went to my friend Miranda Fauver's bridal shower right after. Both were lots of fun and very nice. I'm very excited for both of them!

Wal-Mart Trip

So I was looking through some of my old videos and I have to say there are some pretty funny ones I have, I'm going to have to post some more later, but I thought I'd put this one up cuz it was making me laugh. This is me and my friend Logan at wal-mart down in St.George. A bunch of us made a wal-mart run and when we were walking around there was this random boom box playing dude looks like a lady and it was pretty loud. So we decided to start dancing with the canes that were propped up there. We had quite the crowd watching and the boom box just had to be in the tampon area! haha....hope you enjoy!
