Oh yeah, I have a Blog...

Sooooo…..there was this one time when I had a blog that I would occasionally write on but then one day I decided to take a 4 MONTH break….my bad.  I have now been told by a few people that I need to write again. So here I am, writing again.  I don’t know that I will be able to tell you all that has happened in these 4 magical months but I can tell you that they have been unforgettable and I thoroughly regret not writing about them. 

  Let’s see…where to start? Well I know you’re dying to know if Stephen and I are still together…and well….you better believe we are! (That’s the main reason that these last few months have been so magical).

Some of the adventures we have been on….Hmmm…we’ve gone to Utah a few times to visit the Slade’s.  We went down for conference at the end of April, and then a couple other times after that.

Beth and I completed our SWEET FAST on Easter and here are some of the pictures that ensued... It was a wonderful day, and not JUST because of the sweets…

The gang...Spartacus included :)

Remember that time that we lost Catch Phrase to the boys…? I am sad to inform you that their winning streak has yet to end…

 Stephen turned 23 on June 29^th and that was an awesome day!  We went to Chick Fil A at 6:30 in the morning for FREE Chicken Biscuits and later that night we all went to Pizza Pie Café (Stephen LOVES pizza…probably even more than he loves me…) and after that we had cake…but not just any kind of cake, this was an AVENGERS ICE CREAM CAKE! It was DELICIOUS!

What? You didn't know I was dating Iron Man? 

 We had Virg’s Bridal shower as well…lots of delicious food and skanky gifts some awesome presents!  It was way fun!  (Megan and Kakamoe were able to come up to Idaho and be with us for the weekend and we had a blast!) However, due to the nature of some the gifts she received, I will refrain from putting pictures of those up…however you can just go to this site and look around, I’m sure you’ll see some of the things she got (Ben, you’re not allowed to be looking…)

Aren't they precious?

  Independence Day was EXTREMELY fun.  We went to Egin Lakes and got burned to a crisp BUT later that night, we went to Café Rio and we went and saw the fireworks in Idaho Falls.  The fireworks were absolutely stunning. (Aloe Vera was our best friend for the next WEEK)

 School has been stressful this whole semester, but luckily I have three, yes three, days to go and I will be finished with my 9^th semester of college! I only have 2 to go!!! (If all goes well…) If you were wondering, the classes I took this semester were, Statistics (DISCLAIMER: I HAVE to take this class for my major (Sociology), this is NOT a class I would have voluntarily taken…I am ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE at any sort of math so it has been…um…interesting…we’ll see how I do after this final exam, eek!), Sociological Theory (this is the class that I have with Stephen, however, we don’t sit next to each other because we both know that we would not pay attention at all…everyone in the class thinks it’s weird, our teacher included, BUT it works for us…I still stare at him  from across the room I can still see him though, so that’s all that matters), Sociology of Religion, and Law & Society (Both of these were EXTREMELY interesting and I am so glad I decided to take.

 What else?  Stephen and I are frequent bowlers, we’re not that great at it, but it’s the appeal of beating each other that keeps us going. HA. We also like to go see movies…some of the movies we’ve seen recently are…The Avengers (this movie is seriously EPIC. If you haven’t seen it, I STRONGLY suggest going to see it, you will NOT be disappointed!), The Lockout (unrealistic, not worth seeing again), The Amazing Spider Man (Another one that I STRONGLY suggest seeing!), Battleship (meh, it was OK), Snow White and the Huntsman (I enjoyed this one A LOT more than Stephen did), and a few others, so yeah, we like our movies.  Oh and don’t worry, we have tickets to see The Dark Knight Rises this Friday, so I should be reporting about that, hopefully.

 There is not much else to say, I'm sure I will think of things later that I could have told you about, but alas, I cannot think of anything else at the moment.  OH! One last thing…Stephen went home to Chicago for his sister, Rachel’s, graduation the first weekend in June.  Yes, I was pathetic that weekend without him.  But, you wanna know how awesome he is????  He was going to be gone on our three month anniversary which I was so terribly sad about, BUT he made me a dozen Duct Tape flowers and gave them to Beth before he left to leave at my doorstep that morning.  How lucky am I? It was precious.  He MADE THEM! Seriously?

  I know, I know, you ladies are all wishing he was your boyfriend, BUT,  I'm sorry, he is definitely taken. It’s OK to cry.  He’s amazing and I am so blessed and so amazed that someone like him would fall in love with me.  I thank my lucky stars for him every single day.

 Well, that’s all.  I know this post was EXTREMELY long so I completely understand if you stopped reading after the first paragraph of rambling…I tend to go on, and on, and on, and on…Anyway, it has been a GREAT semester and I wouldn’t trade it for anything!

Also, if you get the chance, you should check out my roommate, Beth's, blog! She just started it and it's awesome!
