Family Website

Here is the current location for our family website.

Just quickly

I love these pictures. We have quite the pretty family.

I seem to always write so very late at night. I just finished a paper and should be off to bed but I need to wind down. This semester has kicked my butt in every way possible, but I'm making it through with only 15 school days left :) I'm a little ECSTATIC about that! I just wrote a 4 page paper on a book I didn't read, so we'll see how that grade turns out. I hate that I'm doing that when I'm a senior and should be better, but let's be honest. I literally don't have time to do the best I can unless it is absolutely necessary. Tonight I had a practical test in Paul Mitchell and I got a 100%!!! That's right, and I was the only one in the class to score a perfect thank you very much. Our written test was last Thursday and I got a 98%, I only missed three questions which was awesome. I feel so good about all this and it makes me so happy!

I'm going to Vegas for a day to see the Trans-Siberian orchestra!! I'm really excited for that to happen, it will be a really good break from Provo.

Here's some of the fun girls I've been getting to know. We go on group dates sometimes and I just love these girls, they're pretty much the best ever

Well that's about all for now. I hope everyone is doing well, love you!!!

And since Chris is wondering why he got left out.....

(Well, ok, maybe not, he's in bed.)

(Now that I have discovered the easiest tool in the world for sharing pictures, you might have to deal with this more often from me. :)

The little guy

Not a brand new picture, but newer than the one I sent before, and my favorite one :).

That is a snakeskin!

A little freaky huh? I just discovered Picasa tonight, and WOW! I love Google.....

Those crazy videos

This is a test.
This is only a test.

November in Utah

Ten years in Eagle Mountain. Five kids more than when we moved in. Finished basement, yard and sprinkler system installed, a couple of concrete pads added. Twelve wards where one used to exist.

This is really just a test of my blogging in-capabilities.

We are so excited over here!

Yeah.....Danny and I are almost in shock....I cried...Danny made fun of me. But really, it all seems so surreal. Everyone is just as happy as can be. We feel so blessed to know that Rome, Italy will have a temple soon :). I felt like 4 hours away was close for awhile. We made the trip around 6-10 times a year depending, so being able to go a couple times a month is huge.
Thank you for sharing our excitement! It is a wonderful thing.

When I saw that in the newspaper (I was working when it was announced), I thought the same thing RO-RO. Not about you getting married there in 5 years but how wonderful for your family in Missouri not to have to make that 3 hour trip to St Louis. Temple attendance (meaning more frequent) is my goal as I feel more mentally healthy and that is only to go 10 min away. I also am thinking it will be nice not to make that 3 hour trip when we attend Kevin and Re-re's weddings (positive thinking :) Kevin will get married right? Maybe we shouldn't wait for that and get together sooner with our Missouri family. We just went to Lake Powell to learn how to use the Turvilles houseboat. Maybe we could meet there and have a fun week. We have use of it 3 weeks of the year. Let us know it you are interested in going there.

Can't wait to hear what you are learning about in hair. It is weird that you and Mckaye are learning how at the same time. You will have to teach me all the new stuff, well, new to me.

more!

I can't even begin to describe how excited I am for the KC temple!!! MAN doesn't it just seem so unreal?? It does to me!! If I don't get married for 5 years I could TOTALLY get married there!! But that's not going to happen because, I'm engaged!!! Hahaha. I'm kidding. How weird will it be when I actually do get hitched but I joke about it so much that it's no longer a possible reality when I say it? My friend does that with pregnancy. It's kinda funny, and has anyone seen the commercial for the pregnancy test that's all serious and then it says "It's the most advanced piece of technology....you will EVER pee on!!" Ooh how rebellious of me saying that naughty word mom hates. :)

School is great, busy busy but I love my classes. Paul is doing well too, he's teaching me how to color right now and it's a bit overwhelming but nothing I can't handle. It's definitely different from BYU, that's for dang sure. I knew it would be but now it actually is.

Oh I saw Kung Fu Panda!! And So I Married an Axe Murderer!!! Both classics I loved, they're so funny!! Okay well it's 2 AM and therefore almost bedtime. Gotta go love you all!!

HEY FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!

Well look at you, checking out this blog! I'm really excited about this I think it's a GREAT Idea because maybe I'm the only one that gets intimidated by emailing but maybe not. I feel less pressure to do this and if I'm late in replying, it's okay!! I think that's my thing - it takes me forever to reply to emails so I usually don't until it's too late and then it's kinda pointless so sometimes I don't at all. Though they are perfect for political debates which I have enjoyed reading so far :)

Anyway, I hope everyone is swell. I am! I started Paul Mitchell the school this week and along with BYU they are dominating my life, like children would I assume. I have decided to refer to them as my grandpa and boyfriend, you can decide which is which :) so between Brigham and Paul I try and play, and usually take the play time to practice what I've learned at hair school (don't worry, no cutting yet! They even took away our scissors and we won't get them back for like 5 weeks when we actually learn how to cut hair.) So far it's just been head massages, braiding, blow drying techniques and of course ways to be professional. Soooo yeah. It's fun.

BYU is great too, I'm in all major classes and I love them! they are way interesting though very demanding and I'm reading articles and chapters almost nonstop. But it's all cool stuff on family life and marriages and what not so hooray! I'm learning!

Other than that it's just finding time to play, and somehow incorporate time for whatever calling I'll be getting tomorrow :) that will be exciting to learn! I'll let you know when I do...

love!
