Last week, I got to go home for Thanksgiving! After having a really hard week, I was homesick and SO ready to go home. Luckily, I complained about not having a ride back to Arizona at work one day, and someone I work with said she was going and could take me. That was seriously the best thing ever!
So, Tuesday morning I got picked up to go home! I was in the car with the girl I work with and two of her friends. It was pretty fun, we just blasted music. We stopped in Flagstaff for food and to drop off one of the girls. We ended up getting to Flagstaff an hour early, so we had to wait for the girl's mom to come pick her up. Then we drove the rest of the way to Gilbert. AND I WAS HOME!! :D (If you couldn't tell, I was so flippin' excited to be home!) My parents and brothers were up to meet me, even though it was late. I couldn't stop smiling and hugging my family. It was so great to be home!
On Wednesday, I woke up when I felt like it with no alarm. It was awesome! I got up aand get a text from my dad asking if I wanted to meet him for lunch at In-N-Out. Uhmmm, heck yes!! So, I got to spend some time with my daddy, which was nice! Then I went to visit the school my mom teaches at. The was fun, becasue I got to see a few of my old teachers from elementary school. Then I picked up Betsy, and we went to Savers and Target and pretty much just had an awesome time! Later, my cousins came over for hot chocolate. After that, I went to my friend Chelsea's house and got to hang out with a bunch of my friends. I got a lot of hugs from them! They asked me if I was engaged yet, and were shocked to find out that I haven't even been on a date since I've been up at Provo. To be honest, I'm pretty shocked too... :P Well, we ended up watching Once Upon a Time (because some of them had never seen it). Yeah, I think they're hooked! ;)
Thursday was Thanksgiving! I kinda just hung out with my family and then our family friends came over and we ate yummy food! Uhm, thats really all.... But it was fun! And Delicious! :)
Friday was really fun! I took my brother to Chick-Fil-A because he had a gift card. Then I hung (hanged?) out with my friend Jesse. We got cupcakes, went to his friend's mission call opening (he is going to Hawaii), and went mini golfing with some more friends. After mini golf, some people wanted to get pizza, but me and Jake wanted Taco Bell, so we all went to go get food and met back at Jesse's house where we played Clue. Then we went and got rainbow slushies and went to my house where we played Bananagrams and watched Once Upon a Time (because none of them had seen it)! It was a super fun night!
Saturday, Kourtney took me to lunch at Firehouse Subs. After that, I went to my old work to say hi to everyone! It was so fun to be there again. I really miss it. After going to my work, Kourtney and I went to the mall! Later, some family friends came over for dinner, and I got to see my friend Haley! I have known Haley since we were about 2 years old! It was so fun to see her again. We played Bananagrams and Just Dance 4 (which is sooooo awesome! It has Call Me Maybe on it, and you can buy Gangnam Style for it! :D So cool!)
On Sunday, my dad made biscuits and gravy for breakfast (my favorite!). Then my dad took me on a motorcycle ride. I love riding on motorcycles! Then my family went to church while I packed up my stuff and watched Pokemon. Yeah, I watched Pokemon...... Then I got picked up and we drove back to Provo. We made awesome time! And now I'm back to the cold! (Which I'm actually very excited for!)
I am definitely so glad I got to go home! It was the perfect time! Now only three more weeks until I can go back! :) Oh, I love the Holiday season!
(Oh, and I know how awesome I am that I didn't take a single picture while I was in AZ. I really need to get better at taking pics....)

Welcome Back
Well, it sure has been a while since I posted on my blog. I would like to tell you that this is because I have been very busy and productive. But it's against the honor code to lie. I really have just been extremeely lazy. But that's just me. So I will go over a few important points that have happened since I last posted.
1. Well, there was Halloween. And I for surely dressed up. And I was totes adorbs. But besides dressing up, I had a rather uneventful Halloween.
2. My friends and I thought it would be a good idea to bike to Savers. It wasn't. It took us so long to get there. And it wasn't that great. But I did find the movie Betsy and I have been searching for since we started out Savers trips. So I of course bought it.
3. I got rather homesick this weekend. It may have had something to do with some of my friends. But I won't rant on here.
4. I found someone to take me home to Arizona! I am so excited to go home next week!
5. It snowed. Like, really snowed. And it was beautiful and cold. Now it's just cool, and the snow that is left is boring and slushie.
6. I am almost completely caught up with Once Upon a Time. If you have never seen it, please do. It is addicting. And amazing. WATCH IT.
7. I have some pretty amazing Home Teachers. When I posted a rant on Facebook the night I started feeling homesick, I got a text from my hometeacher only a few minutes later making sure I was ok, and telling me that if I needed anything to just let him know. The next day, I had to work until really late, and I didn't want to walk home alone in the dark and cold, so one of my home teachers came and walked home with me. Seriously, those boys are awesome.
8. My friends had a Thanksgiving party without me. Because I had to work, but still. Everyone should make sure I am happy. Is that too much to ask? (Please know that this is sarcasm.)
9. I officially declared my major. As of right now, I am technically a "Pre-Comms" major, since advertising is a limited major. Pretty exciting stuff.
10. It is getting cold, and I want a cuddle buddy. Ok, so this technically isn't something that has happened since my last post, but I just want to make sure everyone knows that I just want a stinkin cuddle buddy. Ok?
11. I bought a scarf. Two actually. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME? I don't like scarves, and yet, I bought two. I'm turing into a Utah girl.....
12. Somebody heart attacked me. :) I'm guessing it was my visiting teachers. I could be wrong, but that's what I'm thinking.
13. I finished a couple sewing projects. A skirt and a shirt. Both are super cute! I promise I will post pictures later!
14. My roommate told me about this website. Cakewrecks.com If you need to waste a few (hundred) hours, go here. So Funny!!!
15. I couldn't stop at 14, but I don't think I really have anything else to say. So, it was nice catching up with you. I promise I will try to blog a little more regularly. Maybe. We'll see.
