Christmas...in a nutshell

So it has been a pretty crazy couple weeks. Like the holidays usually are...So I'll give a quick re-cap and some of my favorite pictures. Let me see... I think to start the season we went to Temple Square to see the pretty lights with Colin's Mom. Even though we probably went on the most chaotic night it was still fun. I love the lights and the Temple. So it was great!



THEN! We went to the Festival of Trees. I LOVE it! Colin...didn't quite so much. Haha but he went at least once so that's good enough for me! Here's a couple of my favorite that we got to see.
You bet your bottom thats a pez despenser tree!! Brilliance!

Clifford just plain rules...

And who doesn't love a Jazz Tree, right??!

So then my favorite buddy Aiden and myself had a birthday on the 20th. It was fun stuff. My birthdays are usually low key so we kept with tradition. I went and gave Aiden his present and hung for a bit. Then Colin and I met up with his family (who were all in town for about a week) and had a family picture taken. Haven't seen any yet so I hope they turn out okay! His family is so cute so I'm sure it did! Then we met my family at Olive Garden and went to my aunts and played games till the wee hours of the morning(midnight. whew!)

Colin gave me 21 flowers for my 21st birthday. Aww...


I must share my Betty Crocker skills...I was so proud of myself.
Peanut Butter Cups

And some yummy cookies...

And Christmas Eve we went to Nephi and built our first home together...A ginger bread house!

Then Christmas we were extra lazy. It was super fantastic!

The End!

In case you didn't know....

Um I'm engaged! Way fun!! Yep yep its true! Colin proposed about two weeks ago. So all those of you that don't know him should GET to know him! He is fantastic! The date is March 20th in the Salt Lake temple. We're keeping the whole shebang real small. Close friends and family is all but that doesn't mean we don't absolutely love you all. Anywho I figured this was a good way to get the word out. Here's a couple of pictures from the night he proposed. My aunt said I looked like I was "floating on air". Ha I guess I couldn't help it I was pretty dang excited! We went out with my friend Jenn and her boyfriend, Tony. I blame Jenn for the bad picture of the ring...You can't really see it very well because of the flash or something(Way to go Jenn! Just kidding I love you).

BYU Blows!

So I went to the BYU game on Saturday with Colin, my dad, and my brother Andrew. My dad got front row seats from his work and he asked us to go. I'm not a big football fan but I like going to games and such. It's fun! Well I'm definitely not a BYU fan so this is what I wore to the game...

Yeah...I kind of stood out in the sea of blue. And it rocked! Anywho! It was fun and pretty fantastic weather. BYU won by like 30 points so it was a little boring and we left early. But still fun! Oh! And my dad is the biggest dork! Haha everytime we scored (which was A LOT obviously) my dad would turn around to us and growl like the cougar noise that they make after every touchdown. I can't even describe it but I got a picture! It was hilarious! What a goober...

Here's a couple more pics:-)

Ohhh...Cuteness!

It was fun to watch Andrew and my Dad. They just talked and laughed the whole game. Haha they had a good ol' time!

My Dad...

So basically I just wanted to write a quick blog about my Dad. I'm so thankful for him and everything he has done for me. He always knows exactly what to say exactly when I need to hear it. Especially when I'm having a bad day. And he has always been willing to help me with anything and everything. I love him so much and I really don't know what I would do without him. To bad he won't read this;-) Oh well I still love him!

Shocked...Simply shocked.

This goes to all the perverted men in the world. I know that overall men are good. I like em'! A lot! But the few perv's out there really know how to give the entire male species a bad rep. So somebody tell me why when you(the male species) make a call and the receptionist(me) answers "Pride Transport how may I direct your call?" you feel the need to use demeaning pet names(foxylady)? OH yes my friends that is exactly what happened. Today I answer and this disgusting (possibly high as a kite) male says..."Who's this foxylady??" I figure I misunderstood so I double check. "Say again?"

"who's this Foxy lady?"

Me-How may I help you

Perv-Oh you can help me alright

Me-HOW CAN I DIRECT YOUR CALL!

Sicko-you can direct this...

CLICK!!!

I'm shocked. All i can say is...Honestly??!!?!?
