Airports.

Tomorrow I spend an entire day in airports. 

Man. 

I am far from excited for that. 

I am however excited to get home. 

After about 12 and a half hours in airports i will arrive in the mother land. 

If all goes according to plan. 

Which I am hoping and praying that it will.

Airports freak me out. 

ALOT. 

So today is my last day with FB, Blog, Skype, & internet. 

For about 2 weeks. 

Thats okay. 

I will survive! :D

Have a day :) 

Utah.

I am in Utah.

This is great news because it means: 1 DAY!!!

1 Day till I go home. 

WAHOO. 

We went to a family ward for church today. 

It was so strange being in  a class with so many... old people? 

The best part id have to say was in Relief Society. 

The lady next to jenny turns to us and asks:

"Hi! Are you girls new young women in the ward?"

HA! 

When I told her I was 20 years of age AND in college she laughed as though she didnt believe me. So in return i just stared at her with a serious face to show, i was in fact 20. 

Then when we were introduced as visiters this kind lady thought the whole room needed to know we were not YW but were in fact college aged girls. 

Ohh i just love to see peoples reactions when i tell them "No im not 12, im 20."
They find it so hard to believe. 

AHHH! My beffies. 

Oh how things have changed. 

8 years ago we meet. 

8 years ago we could not stand to be near each other. 

But, naturally we became BFFs. 

Duh. Who wouldnt want to be MY bff?!
HA jk

Even though college, 1,889 mi, 1 day 7 hours distance, marriage, and now a baby are in the picture, we are still just as close as ever. 

I cant wait to get home and hang out. 

Its gonna be so fun.

i would say just like old times. 

but

it wont be like old times at all.

She will have to worry about a belly getting in the way of things and have to be home to greet her husband.

I will be different to. 

how? 

i havent figured out yet but im sure she will oh so kindly tell me how ie changed.

If i got fat, if im to skinny, if i look or act different. 

im sure she will tell me. 

YAY Family! 

I cant wait! 

They are already fighting over who gets the first hug. 

I think itd be funny to hide from them for a while make them wait a few minutes longer to see me even though i already see them.

I bet my dad cries.

Hes such a softy. 

Dont let him scare you boys. 

Hes more scared of you than you are of him.

I bet they all cry. 

Its gonna be great. 

I just realized today that, Christmas is next week!

Ive been so caught up in counting down the days to go home and the days till i return to school that i totaly forgot to remember Christmas. 

HA! Silly me. 

Big girls gotta feast.

While i am home I wont have skype or internet. 

Its like im going back in time to cave man times. 

It should be a nice escape for a while. 

Though i will miss skype. 

I may sneak to beths and skype at least once. 

Well Ta Ta for now. 

Happy Christmas!

Merry Holidays! 

Have a day :) 

The wait...

So. 5 Days. 

Seems like forever. 

Its so strange. 

The year went by so fast but now that i am counting down to go home it seems to take forever. 

SO annoying. 

I leave for Utah in 2 days. 

Then i spend 4 days there.

Then i go home. 

YAY!

White glove. 

Have to clean the bathroom. 

Im okay with that. 

In GA i wont have internet. 

How will i survive with no FB or skype?! 

I will make due. 

My Liver and Kristofer leave tomorrow. 

Sad day. 

3 weeks till we are all roomies!! 

YAY! 

Have a day (:

WAHOO.

This ^^ Is what i feel like ive been doing all day. 

The dreaded White Glove...

Its is a huge packet full of detailed cleaning we have to do as an apartment. 

Usually i do not enjoy doing this tedious cleaning.

BUT 

Today I embraced the cleaning. 

I took this burst of energy and re organized my shelf and under my bed. 

YAY! Clean clean clean. 

But as i reorganized my room and desk i realized.... I was done with half of my white glove assignment! YAY! 

Now I only need to clean the bathroom and living room and i will be ready to go! 

I go home in exactly 1 week from today. 

You could assume im a tad bit excited. 

I have already packed my bag! HA! 

I just dont want to forget anything. OK?! 

Airports are the only thing im not excited for. 

Im SUPER freakin nervous. 

My last experience took ALL day. 

I was trapped for SIX hours in the Denver airport full of rude people and not food. 

Talk about torture. EW. 

So I pray that this experience will be LOADS better than the last. I have been praying since i got the ticket that the trip will go smooth with little to absolutely no problems. 

I am super duper excited for Winter semester. 

NOT for the cold or the wind. Never for that.

BUT

For the friends i will be living with. The friends I will have and make. Thomas. & SNOW! 

Call me crazy, but, i LOVE snow. I like the sound it makes under my feet. The way it feels when it falls on your head. The what it feels when you get hit with a HUGE puffy snow ball. They way it shapes to your body when you lay in it. And the way it builds awesome forts. 

If only it could snow and not be windy and Super freezing cold. 

But i guess i will just have to deal. 

My families HUGE monster Christmas tree. 

And of course It fell on Cheyenne. 

Years ago baby Cheyenne was alone in the living room, when suddenly we here muffled crying. 

We run to see what has happened. and there she is. pinned under the tree crying. HAHAHA! Ohh what a great thing to see. 

This year the tree is HUGE! Covers the double back doors and the pictures above the door. 

so naturally the tree has to fall on Cheyenne. I wasnt there but i have a great imaginations so it makes a great story in my head:

Cheyenne standing with Harley (the dog named after a Batman character.) When suddenly the tree starts to sway....TIMBER! Cheyenne turns to protect Harley throwing her out of the way then suddenly the monster tree is on top of her! Screams of fear erupt through the house. (Only mama and Payton scream. Dakota sits not knowing what happened. And Papa and Jessie laugh and do nothing) Then hearing the screams Cheyenne gets frightened and starts to cry. Then they begin to pull the tree off of her and she is unharmed but embarrassed. 

(Caution: This is not how it really happened. This is just how I picture it happening.) 

   

My belly just reminded me very rudely that I have not eaten yet today. 

It is almost 4:30pm. 

I got so distracted cleaning, packing, and writing this that i havent even thought about food all day. 

Maybe now is a good time to eat? 

If only i had something to eat besides noodles, butter and hot pockets. 

Ohh college life. 

Well. Time to stumble, pin, and FB. 

Later Gator. 

Have a day. :) 

The last week of school.

Yes. This is how I feel. I would love to pull out my hair. 

Math 108 is ridiculous.

I am usually pretty good at math but this class feels impossible. 

I want this necklace for Christmas. 

Only 8 days till I return home. 

Im pretty nervous for the flight. Last time i was on a plane it did not go very well. 

Hopefully there are no delays and I make it to my layover on time. 

Also not getting lost would be a plus. 

So true.

This use to be true when i was home. 

However,

Now that i am in college, hungry ALWAYS, i would love to open the fridge and see what mom sees. 

Food. Not my favorite food. But, food. 

Cant wait to be home with food. 

Winter semester is going to be so fun. I CANT WAIT! YAY! 

Have a day. :)
