new place new stuff same me.

I'm now in a new place. these are two of my three roommates. Kourtney on the left and Beth on the right. Love these girls. We have fun and have had crazy times. ha :)

there was one point when we had four couches and a chair. As you can probably imagine our living room (small) could hardly hold all of this furniture. So we talked to our land lord and asked if they new of anyone in the ward that needed a couch and if so we had an extra one that we wanted to get rid of. So we put it our on our porch (which is in the back yard..in side a fence). One day we get home and see this....

yes, this is our couch on literally the street corner with a sign that says "FREE" with a rock holding the paper down. So naturally...we took pictures :)

News Update :)

I am getting ready to move again! I'm moving to a way cheaper apt. and a new ward (because the one I'm in is too far to drive every Sunday..stinkin gas prices). BUT I am moving in with my cousin Kourtney :) we went and painted it last week (the colors the land lords wanted ha) and it looks great! I cant wait to move in. I'll have pictures soon :)

ZOO LIGHTS!

I went to the Zoo lights at the Phoenix Zoo on Wednsday night for my Loverly friend Megan's birthday! :D I got to hang out with some of my favorite people and walk around looking at all the amazing and i'm sure expensive lights. Its crazy how much creativity you can see and how much work they put into their show. There were butterflys "flying" in the trees and elephants " spraying" each other in the face...eventhought we did get to see the real elephants! :) but MY favorite thing of the WHOLE night was the Trees that "danced" to music! Oh it was fantastic! I didn't get to record it sadly but I did get a picture of all of the trees lit up in white!

Dancing trees! :D

I love this picture

The Up Date

Alright, well I have been living in the valley for a month now, and this is some of the things I've done...

~ I [now] drive to Institute without using my GPS.

~ I can get on and off the freeway without wigging out.

~ I drove the the airport [to get Riley] all by myself. AND got back out again.

~ I've been swimming 3 times.

~ I've been to 3 different libraries.

~ Been Country dancing.

~ went on a camp out

~ hung out with Amber & Tally

~ Chilled with the Hylands

~ and had my car break down...

THE CAR!

..yes, my car broke down. After driving me around for 1 month, it freaked. As I was driving to my loverly cousin Amber's house [on monday] I was getting off the freeway and as I stoped at the light i noticed that either Steam or Smoke was rapidly coming out from under my hood. Lucky for me Ambers house was right around the corner.

I let the car cool down for 2 hours before i went out and checked it again. It was still really hot and steaming so i called my dad. After the three of us girls looking under the hood for about ten min. we found out that the fans weren't turning...

Then I called my uncle Craig and he talked to dad and it was decided that i was to take my car to my uncles macanic the next morning.

The next day as i was driving to meet Craig at the car shop [all the while hopeing my car wouldn't explode], I got pulled over...yes, pulled over. The insanly happy cop started talking to me and said he pulled me over because of the cracks in my windsheld and that those aren't allowed. He took my info and went back to his car. After talking to me for another little while, he gave me a verbal warning to get it repaired. I told him that i was on my way to go get my car fixed and that i would tell my dad about the windsheld.

After dropping my car off I hung out with my uncle and the family. Around 7 p.m. we found out that he didnt even look at my car yet but would get it in the morning [this was wednesday]. As Alexis was driving me home i realized that i didnt have my house key! I left in on my car key for the repair guy. Lucky for me my roommate was home.

The next morning the repair guy said that my car needed a new radiator so he got to work on that. After a long day driving back and forth with my cousins and aunt around town, we finally got a call around 6 p.m. my car was finished!

Standing at the counter waiting to pay the 300 + dollars for my car my uncle asked if my car has AC. I happily answered, "yup! it sure does" the macanic said, "uh no you don't" looking at him i said, " well I had it up until monday when it over heated" and he went on to tell me it wasnt possible

SO after not having my car for 4 days i picked it up, drove it home and my dad and i fixed my AC :)
