Winter break is coming to an end...

Wow, it has been quite some time since I have blogged. This is ridiculous. I am just going to blame this no blog writing phenomonom on the fact that I have been hanging out with my dear friend Gabrielle Madson. We have done quite a lot together since she arrived here on the 28th of December. Just look:

We went to my dear friend Carolyn Jacksons (Hirz) wedding reception. Notice her hubby in the background. He is a goof. Oh, and notice the bridesmaid dresses, they are brown and teal polka dots. Those are the colors I want in my wedding, and I love polka dots! Carolyn is gorgeous and doing well,and her reception was beautiful. Oh how weird it feels that all my friends are getting married....

Gabrielle and I then went sledding. It was quite a blast. To be honest with you I really don't remember the last time I went sledding before Gabe and I went. Oh, my little brother went also went. Gaber and I had to help him shovel the whole driveway (because that was his allowance job) and then at 5 at night, we went sledding. It was so dang much fun, you have no idea. So fun it was even worth being sore for two days (which was from a combination of shoveling my house, My teachers house, and falling off the sled a few times...)

These are the girls at the new years eve party. This was a fun night I must say. We played hours of Mafia, Pounce, and Catch Phrase. See all that confetti on the floor, yeah, we did those little confetti poppers at midnight and made that mess. It was really fun to clean up let me tell you! I didnt end up getting home till about 4:30am on the first. I slept in till 11 (the latest I slept in all vacation) and was still kinda tired all day, its ok though, it was all worth it.

The boys at the new years eve party. They were qutie fun to be around. I didn't realize how much I missed my high school buddines until I didnt get to be around them for quite some time.

Oh, I almost forgot. A few days before New Years a couple of my buddies came over and hung out for a few hours at my house. This picture basically sums up the whole night. We had pillow fights, I laughed a lot, we talked about college, Sam loves Cornell (hence the socks), we laughed...a lot, we were loud till like 2 in the morning, I thought my parents were going to be mad, but instead, in the morning they told me they hadn't even heard me last night. We even left, opened the garage door (right under their bedroom) took the car, went to taco bell, came back, and then got ready for bed. They heard none of that. You know how kids always try really hard not to get caught when they try and sneak out of the house. Well, I am pretty sure I wouldn't have to be that cautious....

I head back to EWU in just a few days. While I am very, extremely excited to see all of my college friends once again I am going to be quite sad to leave the comforts of home. I like being home, in fact I love being home. I love spending time with my family, eating family meals every night, having my own room that is as big as our whole dorm room ( ok, not quite as big, but close), visiting old high school friends, not having homework, and sleeping in every day. I am going to miss all of this, but most I think I will miss my little brother the most. He is growing up so fast. I just want to be around to help him not be so naive...I just love that little guy (who isnt so little anymore).

Enough blogging for now. I must go spend some of these precious last moment at home with my family.
