Provo

So after my parents came to Rexburg for one night, and I gave them a quick tour of the small town, we headed off to Salt Lake. Once I dropped them off at my uncle's house I headed to Provo to see Elizabeth! It was so good to see her since I haven't seen her since I left home in January! We had alot of fun together. When I first go there we went to the BYU vs. UNM football game. BYU won. Then we went back to her place, I met her roommates, and we went out to eat with some of her friends. Afterwards we went to her friend John's house (super nice house!) and we watched a movie and then talked for hours! Then on Sunday we woke up and went to church and Elizabeth had to give a talk, which was soo good!! It was by far the best talk I have heard in a very long time! Over all it was a wonderful weekend! Can't wait to do it again Elizabeth!

BYU-Provos fan-filled stadium definitely puts BYU-Idaho to shame

Wow I just realized how much catching up I have to do on here! I have about two weeks of pictures and stories I need to post so good thing it is Sunday afternoon and I have nothing better to do while all my roommates sit and do homework.

To begin, a couple weekends ago my parents were so nice to drive 22 hours from Illinois to Idaho to bring me my car! To make it even better, the day they got to Idaho was their anniversary! They really love me. So once I realized it was their anniversary I felt really bad that they had just been in the car all day to make it from Nebraska to Idaho, so I figured I had to do something nice for them. It was also coincidentally mothers weekend here at byu-i, which meant every single hotel in town was pretty much booked. So before they got into town I tried finding a hotel room for them to stay at and I decided I would just book it and pay for it for them as a gift. Since I waited till the last minute to do this the only three rooms I could find in Rexburg happend to be 3, themed, honeymoon suites. Since it was their anniversary anyways and they were going to need some place to stay, Brittany, Kristyne and I decided to go check it out. We went to the hotel and they let us take the key to go check out the three different rooms. We thought they were the coolest rooms ever, so we picked our favorite one and I tried suprising my parents. It was a really nice hotel and it was Friday night so once my parents got into town us three girls decided to go to their hotel room and "hang out" with them. We had so much fun going swimming in the pool, filling up their jacuzzi in their bedroom and sitting in it while we watched gossip girl and ate popcorn. By far it was the best Friday night we have ever had here in Rexburg!

Here are some pictures of their honeymoon suite. It had some type of cool mediterranean theme.

There was a waterfall right in front of it

This one is kinda hard to see but it's the view of their bed

Beginning of Fall!

I finally made it to Rexburg! After a month of school already coming and going, I decided to fly out to Idaho so that I could get settled and start looking for a job, which ended up turing out very well because I was able to get a job my second day here. Then my parents so generously drove my car out to me about a week and a half later! I am very excited to be back and I am even more excited to be living with my 3 favorite roommates from the past two semesters. Peggy and I lived together in the winter, and then in the summer I lived with Brittany and Kristyne. It is so much fun being all together! Here are a few pictures from the beginning of Fall. I will try to keep up as best as I can with my blog, and hopefully it shouldn't be too hard since i'm not even in school right now. Enjoy!
