oh ya.. I live in Calgary...

This is last Thursday the 17th of April
Bike Riding and getting Ice Cream...




And this is how much it snowed the next day....



And this is trying to get a picture with the snow falling... but it didn't really turn out. BUT it DID NOT stop snowing the WHOLE day!!!! There was so much snow! And there still is!!



I would also like to point out that the Thursday before that, I woke up and it was dry outside...... 5 min before I left for school at 730am it started snowing.. Well.. it took me 2 hours to get to school because it snowed so much so fast, missed my whole class.... AND THEN... the next Sunday, I walked home from church because it was 22 degrees Celsius and not a spec of snow... :)

Hey!

Well I am almost done another semester.... 3 more exams left! I need to study hard for them. But it has been a while since I blogged so I thought I would post whats new with me, which isnt much, but its been so long that I have a greater span of time to work with :)
Recently Me and Jordan went on a road trip down to conference!! Its always fun. We had tickets to the Saturday Morning Session. Jordan forgot the tickets on his dresser though, but a faxed copy of the tickets go us in! Thank Goodness!!! It was a great session. Neat to be there for the Solemn Assembly and such. We mostly spent time with his family down there. We also went to this place called "Jump on It" in Orem. Its pretty neat, there are trampolines all around this big building and on the side of the walls. Its a lot of fun, and tiring. It was a really fun trip. The Ride home was pretty fun too.. And of course I got no sleep the whole weekend which resulted in my being sick a few days after... but its worth it!!



HAHA this is me sticking my head out the sunroof on the highway.. What an experience!

Also, I know this was a long time ago.. BUT its significant for me.
I went snowboarding! Its kinda a big deal :) for me... with my arthritis and all... We just went for a half day up at sunshine and it was good. My knees were kinda sore at the end, but nothing big :)

The Big 20

So this is 2 weeks late... but i had my 20th birthday on the 13th of January.. it was good times. Since it was on a Sunday I went out on Saturday night too. I went out for dinner with Jordan and then we went to the observation deck of the Calgary tower, and then we went and took some funny pictures downtown to till time before we went and sat the movie "The Bucket List". Good movie, it brought tears to my eyes......

I will also say, it is kinda weird to be 20... its always seemed so old to me... Im growing up!!! time goes by so fast!! Not sure if its too fast or not....












HAha... this one looks kinda awkward... but they all kinda are...

Holy, that was a lot of pictures...
Ok well on Sunday, we had a family dinner, and played games afterwards... i love playing games.. it was good fun. And my mom made my favorite cake ever. Chocolate Cheesecake, with pretty much no sugar. DIVINE :)







Good old Stephen... He is leaving our house on Friday... It will be sad. We like having him around.

Christmas Break!

This break was pretty good! I loved having time off so just relax and see family, it was great!
My and my sisters went out for a girl night to the movie Enchanted... it was pretty good.. but everyone talked it up i thought it would be better, but it was still really great!


Next was Christmas itself! For years our family has been going to the Fibkes home on Christmas Eve, I look forward to it every year, so that was a lot of fun, there is always such good food, and great company!





On Christmas day, me and my dad went to serve the homeless a Christmas dinner. I havent dont it for the past 2 years, but my dad has been going for probably 12 years. So its become a tradition. It was really good.

Jordan and I went to the Zoo lights on new years day, it was pretty sweet, we happened to find the Tree of Life too, which was kinda funny!





AND.... My mom and my sisters went down for Clints wedding in Utah. It was a sweet trip. We were originally going to go down on Thursday, but i read on the internet somewhere that they have the temple square lights up until January 2. So we qucikly made arrangements and left that night! A day early... and when we got there we found out that they were not up that long, so too bad... but it ended up being good that we went early because we hardly had enough time to do everything we wanted to do! So we just did some shopping and some good old family time. All the Aunts were there, so it was really exciting because that doesnt happen all the time, and i LOVE all of my Aunts. They are a hoot, i just love being around them. We had a family night one night and did some karaoke, it was really fun. Also the wedding was great, everything was beautiful!!!







It was so much fun to see everyone!! I love all my cousins.


Also my friend Mirielle went down to BYU so i got to see her one last time!! She had tickets to a BYU basketball game so we got to go to that, it was really fun, BYU won, by a lot, so it was kinda slow in that sense but fun to be there anyway! :)




And now its all over and school started again today!

I Was Tagged

Ok i got tagged over a month ago... but i never think of this anymore. its terrible
Also, i dont have that many bloggers and i believe all the people i know have already been tagged.. if your reading this and you havent been tagged then do it! haha

Ok 6 things about myself...

1. I procrastinate a lot! iv noticed that being in school again. Right now i am avoiding studying. This is the very time that i shouldn't have time for blogging... and here i am.... :)
2. I need a lot of sleep, and i love it soooooooooooooooo much! I absolutely love it!
3.I really enjoy reading, but also find it hard to find time for it.
4.I really like healthy stuff, but also find it hard to follow sometimes because I LOVE sugar.
5.I hate the cold.. but im trying to embrace it this winter and maybe it wont seem as bad...
6.I don't know what i want. Im a mind changer....;)

OK
And here is my beautiful familia minus my beautiful mother who is taking the picture. Stephen has also been living with us since February minus the summer, and its great having him around. He will go back to France to finish his last semester in France, we will really miss him. It's nice having him around, because he is so kind and calm haha compared to the other kiddos! Jokes... my siblings are great too!




And.... Again this year I was able to participate in the Handels Messiah Choir again for my 4th time i believe. I absolutely LOVE it.
This is my amazing friend Mirielle and I before a performance one night. I got jipped on a tie this year.... it was super short and looked like a real bow tie when i tied it in a bow. HIlariOUS! :)



And i would also like to state that my health is going excellent. Things are looking up, i am truly blessed! Thanks for everyones prayers this past year and a bit. :)

Busy Busy, but Fun Fun

Just about 2 weeks ago my friend Tom took me to the Brad Paisley concert, and Taylor Swift opened. It was AMAZING!!! I forgot how good concerts are. Especially since it was at the saddledome i was thinking it would be kinda far away and impersonal but there was so much energy it was amazing. Taylor Swift is so cute and cool, I just loved her. It was Kari actually that introduced me to her... with the picture to burn song! :) so good... Anyway I was a lucky girl to be able to go!










Next there was halloween... There were a few ysa type partys that weekend, so I kinda dressed up. It was so last minute tho! i ended up being dorothy one night, same costume as last year, and then a bumblebee the next night, and i ended up taking off my wings so i looked like i didnt dress up... but thats ok! haha good times were had.



And this last weekend was the all famous PREFERENCE. Its a girls choice dance... so i had to ask someone to go! haha I asked my friend Jeff Spackman. You normally plan a fun date beforehand and then make it to the dance later on. It was gonna be super cool, we were going to go to these dance lessons that they have for cheap here, ballroom stuff.. and then do dinner and dessert but we got started too late, so it never happened, but im definately still doing that in the future! But we just had dinner and met up with more people for dessert then made it to the dance. And after the dance we ended up going back to my friends place and played a bunch of games. It was actually the funnest weirdest night i have had in a long time! I think being super tired at the end made everything so much funnier and it was a blast!





To top it all off I am so busy with school!! Im looking forward to it all being done for a while!
