Playing With Family & Friends

During the Fall Break in Provo my Grandparents came into town. So on the 16th and 17th my family came and picked me up and we went down to Bryce Canyon. It was perfect weather. The sun was out and it was warm. It was so fun hiking and spending the weekend with family. The next week of school wasn't too bad. And Friday the 23rd was a pretty exciting day. My best friend opened his mission call and is going to the Montreal, Canada French speaking mission. I'm so excited for him.

Since there's really nothing to do here in Ephraim, my roommates and I went up to Provo for Saturday. We stopped by my house and spent a little bit of time with my family then went to do some shopping. We were also able to get midnight tickets to see New Moon when it comes out. That is going to be way fun. My roommates have a friend who is going to BYU so we went and saw her apartment and then we all went to Denny's to eat dinner and wait for the traffic to die down after the depressing BYU game.

Since Halloween is just right around the corner, for our ward on Monday night we carved pumpkins. Sadly I don't have a picture of it but it was fun to carve it together for our apartment. Last night our apartment complex had a little mini Halloween party and we watched "The Ring" at our clubhouse. And what is Halloween without it getting cold? It snowed yesterday but it did not stick. However, when I woke up this morning and was going to classes I was greeted at my front door with about 3 inches of snow. The entire campus is covered in snow and it is still snowing!

(Sadly I cannot put pictures up because I have to do it on my home computer. But they will come soon!)

An awaited update

So I thought I was going to do really well at updating often. Sadly, that hasn't happened recently. So now its time for an update. During the week I just go to school, come home and do homework until late at night and then go to bed. All my homework that I get usually takes up all my time except on the weekends. I have gone home the past weekends and spent time there hanging out with my family and friends. And of course going to BYU Football games. Last week was my Fall Break so I went home Wednesday afternoon and was home until Sunday night. Thursday I hung out with Mom and worked on some service projects. Friday mom and I made lunch and dessert and Erin and I had some friends over during their lunch break from school. Friday night Dad, Mom, Erin, and I went to the BYU Football game. It was cold but so fun.

Saturday for the first session of Conference we went up to the mountains and listened to it on the radio while having a camp fire. Then we cooked hot dogs and roasted marshmallows. Erin and I spent the afternoon session cleaning her room. And then while the boys went to the Priesthood session we just hung out at our house. Sunday we had family come over for the sessions and of course had our brunch with egg casserole and cinnamon rolls. This week of school has now been crazy. There are a bunch of stuff my teachers have given us. And to top it off, yesterday morning I woke up with a cold. And today its even worse. I just hate being sick.
