Homecoming Weekend!!

This past weekend was HOMECOMING week!  It was a lot of fun.  Unfortunately I didnt capitalize on the bloggertunities and take as many pictures as I should have but it was a fun weekend.  On monday we painted the street with our program logo!  It was fun.  We wrote Speech Pathology in international phonetic alphabet (IPA) it turned out really cool.  Unfortunately my batteries were dead so no pictures of that.  There were a few other things like a Luau and the Mr. USU pagent.  I wasnt able to go to everything, but what I did do was fun.  But here are some pictures from Saturday!  It was a great day!

Here is one of my newest, greatest friend Nicole.  We represented the Communication Disorders program in the parade.  It was fun we got to give out so much candy!  Nicole and I are in the same program and I think she is great.  We also found out recently that we've dated the same guy, which was quite an adventure to hear her story.  She's great and her hat and scarf are so cute. I was so jealous!!!

This is my friend Brooke and I at the Homecoming game... before the rain.

Here we are leaving before half time because we were SOAKED clear through!!!  Fortunately USU's football team is less than phenominal so we lost anyway and we didnt miss a thing!

That night, after we had all dried off we met at Nicole's house for a North and South movie party.  (If you haven't seen Elizabeth Gaskell's North and South I recommend it.  It's my favorite movie!!!)
  
We made halloween cookies.  Some turned out to be the perfect size for Halloween Bat Mustaches.  So we were a little silly, but it was hard to keep those things on!!!!  Nicole's face kills me.

Brooke and I decided that frosting would help keep them on, which they did, but we ended up with Hitler mustaches afterwards.  We were trying so hard to be serious!

All in all it was a great weekend.  There was also a date in there somewhere too, but the outcome of that one is still to be determined. :)

My first attempt at Blogging!!!

Yes, I have decided to join the ranks of those of you who blog.  I decided to blog for a few reasons.  1- because now that I am so far up here in Northern Utah this might be the only way anybody knows whats going on in my life.  2- I'm in school and so I'm busy, but I do have a little extra time so I thought it might be worth it to give it a try.  3- I wanted to fit in =) So here goes nothing!

I thought since nobody really knows what I've been up to, I'd blog a little bit of what I've done recently. 
So here I am up Green Canyon right outside of Logan.  It was so pretty with the fall colors!
My friend Kristen went through the temple about a month ago and here my friends Jannika (right) and Michelle (left) and I are waiting for Kristen to come out after the session. I love this picture!  Michelle and Jannika are adorable!
If you didnt know USU sports are CRAZY!!! In fact the night before conference we played BYU and beat them and when President Uchtdorf talked about sportsmanship we all assumed he was talking about USU fans.  We're crazy!  They get a little out of hand.  Here my friend Kelsi and I are at the BYU game. 
This is me on top of the church office building. 
This is when Dolly and I went home to visit.  We couldn't resist a trip to the cafe to get a plate of curly fries.  Too bad we forgot to take a picture until afterward.
