Home Away From Home

We decided that since its the end of the semester we should probably take some good roommate/FHE Family pictures ;)
This first one is our last picture with Cate (who is actually an adopted member of our little family) before she leaves us forever for Arkansas forever! :'( We are going to miss her like the sun misses the flower! (name that movie! ;)

This next one is Brittany, Rachel and I just having some fun

And this is the Roommate Silly Picture. I am so sorry this semester is ending and we are losing our two copper tops/carot bottoms! They are so much fun, and so hilarious! This has been the most amazing semester ever and I love these girls to death!

And a nice one just for the heck of it:

This is our silly FHE Family picture, what a personality shot!

Aw, so sweet! We are also losing all but two of our boys-so sad! We will miss them too!

Turkey Time and Vacay!


Visiting Bri and Grant was a blast! Almost all the food on the table for the Thanksgiving feast was microwavable :D Have I ever mentioned how much I love living in the 21st century?

I just had SO MUCH FUN staying with the Mather's over Thanksgiving break! Between searching for old recipes, spending days baking, spending nights on getaways with Edward ;) Black Friday shopping and playing with little Dawson and Easton I'm sure I also must have gotten some rest...hehehe
This is the day after going to the Twilight premeire...can you tell we were kinda tired? :D

Twilight Party

We started the evening of the Twilight premeire Party with an excellent Karaoke performance, the one depicted staring Ms. MaKenzie with her super awesome back up singers.

Ah, the close ups :D ....Uh, I should prolly explain that Tenni's lovely new facial addition was not a gift from the Twilight party members but merely from an act of play with a friend in the basement that got a little carried away...and I seem to remember it involved a pool hockey table...

Party on girls!!! I was so shocked those two could sleep with all the noise we were making!
Abbie staring in the hot pants song...and then on the way to TWILIGHT!!! EEK!

Deck the Halls with Boughs of...

We had so much fun tonight! Brittany, Cate and I went shopping in IF at the super Wal-mart for a Christmas tree for our apartment. (Cate is pretty much our live-in/adopted roommate) We found a 6 1/2 ft tall one for only $35, pre-lighted and everything, we were so excited! So we bought the tree and some ornaments and ribbon to go on it, grabbed some Christmas lights and went home to deck the halls! It took us forever, (and Dani was home, so she joined in the fun) but eventually we had the tree all decorated and the lights up around the railing (if you could see it up close, its VERY obvious that it was not done by any sort of boyscout, lol) and then our other roommates and some friends started showing up. So we pulled out the hot cocoa and had a regular Christmas get-together around the Christmas tree. It was so amazing, it felt almost like home!














It took us forever to do the railing! It's actually icicle lights and they got caught on everything! And then everytime Brit or Cate touched them whole sections would go out and we'd have to go through light by light until we found the one that needed tweaking. ;) Love you guys tho!


















Yeah...I kind of forgot I was afraid of heights, until I was standing up on a stool and my head brushed the ceiling! From then on Brit took the stool jobs, lol.

















We did close-ups at like 1AM, but Brit had already gone to bed cause she works at 6AM, so I put the picture of her by the tree instead. I love Christmas, Im so excited for the holidays!

The Essence of 504

"I dont want to be liked, I want to be APPRECIATED!"

"Okay, we should talk about something mature...like childbirth!"

"Im in no hurry to do nothing."

"Im a man--SURPRISE!!!" (creepy deep man voice)

"Cookies solve everything...well, except weight problems :'( "

"There are children in Africa who dont have electricity because you guys use it ALL!"

"fuffin shupe."

"I can't make any life changing decisions when Im on my period!" (in panic-stricken voice)

"Unlike some people in this room, I like to keep my body-ness to myself." (with emphatic disdain)

"Dreams are like climbing Mt. Everest, not 'I want to milk a cow'!"

" 'I wish I knew because then I'd know exactly what to do!'
'Oh ya? What's that?'
'I HAVE NO IDEA!' "

"We're the broken people."

"Im not gonna lie-I tried to learn elvish."

"You never realize how big your butt is until you take your pants off and look at them."

"I have a confession to make, I didn't listen to anything you just said."

"Unless you wanna light some candles baby..." (creepy deep man voice)
