HOME

This weekend I went home to say goodbye to my friend Jeff, he left for the MTC today. Well his little shindig wasnt until saturday night so I spent all saturday with my dad. :]
We were bulding wall supports and putting up drywall for the new bedroom he is building upstairs. Then after we did all we could do with the drywall for the moment dad told me to look at the sky light. It had cracks all over it and looked really bad. Then out of no where dad asked if we should go to the store and get a new skylight! So naturally, we did! After having a wonderful adventure at the store haha we went home and got right to work!

After we took off the old Skylight


The old Skylight haha



Me showing my siblings that the skylight was no longer there.
just chillin on the roof waiting for dad

On sunday after church and a few more hours of visiting I headed back to Thatcher.

Leaving the beautiful Haven I call home.

I had such a good weekend just my dad and me workin on the house. Some of you may not think that working on the house all weekend would be all that fun. But I love it. Its a time and a place that I get to be away from the worries of life and the struggle of school and just get closer to my dad. Its something that I have always done with him, and its when I feel most like myself. Just joking around, listening to classic rock (most of the time), trying to solve the little problems we run into, and of corse sharing a GIANT glass of water. These are the times that made me realize that I love drafting and house designs. These are the moments that helped me decide what I want to do with my life. It brings out the Me inside. :]

Thank you dad for letting me help you this weekend, it was something I really needed. I love you and mom so much. Thanks for supporting me in my goals and my dreams and all I do. And thank you for creating a place I can run/turn to, thank you for building a home I love.

Love you!

Halloween!

1HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
So for Halloween my roommates and I, like most people, dressed up! Ashely was a comic statue named Karl, Liz was a Pirate named Captain Valentina, and I was the Pal white Vampire! We were so excited I started painting/putting make-up on my roommates at 5:30! Yes I did the make-up and face paint for my roomies and myself! psh I rock haha just joshin. Well anyway here are some pictures we took at home and at the Institute Halloween Dance!




yes I had FANGS!!!! they ROCKED! ;D


Ha okay so we went back home to change our shoes [because we all had some type of heels on =/] And before we left we left the door unlocked for our roommate Annie because she forgot her keys. So we headed back home after the dance and were locked out because WE forgot our keys. So we layed out on the porch of 45 min. playing the laughing game, for those of you who don't know what that is, everyone lays on someones stomach and then they say "hhuh" so their stumach goes up and down then the next person does it twice and you see how many people can go before everyone starts laughing, its fun!
I had some really cool eyelashes that were super long and Purple! My black hair worked perfectly! and my Extremely white skin also worked to my advantage. :D
the coolest Vamp. you've ever seen! ;D hahaha
