Work, Swimming, & Tests

Hey I just wanted everyone to know I am still alive. Well actually this could be my kidnapper blogging so nobody gets suspicious. Anyways I don’t have much to say because all I do is school basically. But I have been working lately for Dad. It has been fun and I get paid for it too. I really like it when I finish or find some cool new way to make it better and then I just look at it and I’m so proud of myself because it’s just so cool.

Oh Brian and I went swimming yesterday. It was fun because we have been needing to go lately so Brian won’t get fat but every time we plan to go I don’t want to. So we finally went. It was great, we did Crawl stroke and Breast stroke mostly and even a little back stroke and some kick. We saw Jamie there lifeguarding. It was like a little adventure, kind of like a water park.

Oh here’s a funny story. Yesterday Brian and I were in Civil Engineering 203: Mechanics of Materials and the teacher was giving a test review. So we thought, when is the test? So we looked at the schedule and it said Feb. 18-19 then we were wondering what was the date. Then Brian was like THAT’S TODAY! So he studied for about an hour, took the test that day and probably got 100%…I took it today and did very well too. So much for keeping up to date on our schedules.

Valentine’s Day

Today was valentine’s day.

I made Brian a card that had a bunch of compliments on it and stuff. He really liked it because I made it and I was excited. He gave me bags of conversation hearts because that is my favorite valentine’s candy, they are so good. I remember when mom got a whole bunch last year for the missionaries but ended up keeping them so I ate all the boxes over the period of a month or so. They are so good.

Brian just had stuff planned and I didn’t even know when he was going to come over. We went to the dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point which was so fun. We watched a 3-D dinosaur movie and saw all kinds of old bones. We did bring our video camera and took video and some pictures too.

Then we ate lunch/dinner at TGI Friday’s because we’ve never been there before. It was really good, and a good price, and it wasn’t crowded. We got really stuffed though, it was a lot of food.

Then we went to someone in Brian’s ward’s wedding reception at an art museum in Springville. It was really nice. They had good food too.

Then we came back and made a cookie pie with ice-cream on top and watched Sneakers. The cookie was really good and I realized that I HAD seen that movie before. It was delicious and fun.

So basically we just spent the whole day together mostly like normal but we actually had ideas of stuff to do. It was really fun and I enjoyed it.

Temples

On Friday night Brian and I went to the Draper temple open house. It was so cool that we got so see the inside of the temple and I really liked the new smell. It was a really cool experience.

On Saturday morning Brian and I went to the Provo temple with my ward to do baptisms. We brought our own names, 4 girls and 3 boys. It was really crowded but if you bring your own names you get to cut in line before everybody else. It was cool to see the family history done from beginning to end. We had a fun weekend.

We’re comin’ home

Whoo! Brian and I are coming home on Friday night. we are so excited. What could be more fun, going to Emily’s wedding, seeing everyone beck home now that I’m engaged like Brittany and Anna oh yeah and Preston will still be there. And now that I know that I can probably attend Emily’s bachelorette party.  And we’re going to bring our new HD video camera to play with. We are so stoked. 

P.S. WE BOUGHT THE DRUMS FOR GUITAR HERO!!!

Christmas...Again

The other day I got a package from mom of all my Christmas presents that I left in Washington because my suitcase wasn't big enough. It was like Christmas all over again. I really like the dark brown sweater I wear it all the time and the slippers do a very good job keeping my feet warm. I was so excited when I got it. Thanks!
