All I want for Christmas is no snow

Man! There is so much snow around here in Seattle. We have about a foot and that's more than I've ever had in my life in Seattle. It's been here all week and sometimes it gets better later in the day but then at night it snows more. Right now it's been snowing all morning and we can't really go anywhere. I just hope that it stops long enough for my flight to Mexico tomorrow to fly out on time and not get delayed or canceled. At least everyone is here for Christmas and we can enjoy that. I just want it to stop!

Finals, Vacation

I'm done with all my finals. I had them Monday-Wednesday this week. Every day I had one at 7am and on Tuesday I also had one at 11am so I was pretty tired for those last couple of days but it wasn't that bad. Tuesday night Brian and I exchanged Christmas presents, I got him Kung Fu Panda on blue-ray and he got me a new guitar for my guitar hero because my old one was broken. I was so excited! Now I am back home in Seattle, I left Tuesday afternoon. We were waiting in the airport for a long time because our flight was delayed but then we saw the Vach family which was so exciting because we played phase 10 with them for a while. Now it is really snowy and icy back home and we are stuck at our house but there are a lot of people here so it's alright. I will be here until Christmas day in which I will be leaving for Mexico to meet Brian's parents serving a humanitarian mission there, then off to California to meet the rest of his family and then I'll be heading back to Utah to start school again for Winter semester.

Snow

Ha! It's snowed last night in Seattle but now we have snow too. Muwhahaha!...
Well i'm not that spiteful I just wanted something to blog about. Oh and something else exciting is when I went to the book sell back I won a $5 bookstore giftcard which I used to buy 2 pounds of sweedish fish to share with my friends to spread a little Christmas cheer.

Bridal Shower & Presents

So yesterday I went present shopping. I got Emily a rolling pin off her registry at Target and I also went and got Shari a Christmas present also. I didn't have any wrapping paper for either present so I used a Daily Universe I had today. Emily could totally tell her's was a rolling pin and Shari's had a huge cool bow ribbon thing out of newspaper. Emily's bridal shower was fun because I knew most of the people there.

I'm Engaged!

So yesterday I got engaged. Here's the story

I had not seen Brian all day because I had to take a test and he was studying and going to work. But then his work was canceled so he just showed up around 5:30. I was pretty surprised because he said that he had work. We went to the Brick Oven and had a really good deep dish pepperoni and olive pizza. Then I came back to go the Becky's bridal shower at 7 while he went to go buy some movie tickets for later. We went to see Bolt in 3D which is such a funny movie, I love the hamster! Then we had nothing to do so we went to walk around the temple. Earlier during the movie he was playing with my CTR ring and seeing if it would fit on his pinkie. So at the temple we were just standing by the fountain and talking. Then he goes like he's going to give my ring back and puts the engagement ring on my CTR ring finger. I didn't notice anything at first but after a few seconds I did. I was like "what? That's not my CTR ring" Then he got down one one knee and asked me if I would marry him. I said yes then told him that he needed to put it on my left hand. So after that we just kept walking around the temple and talking. It was really great.

Pike Place

Over thanksgiving break Brian and I went to Pike Place Market in Seattle. It was fun, Brian got a shirt and found me a llama sweater. It is so cool, I love it! We also got flowers for mom because she hinted that she needed some really cheap flowers. Thanksgiving was so much fun with the whole family and Brian also. They like him and Brian said that he likes them too. So all in all it was a fun and exciting week.
