No More Drama!

So I have been having roommate problems as of lately and it has been very stressful. I think I am done with the whole roommate thing! So I talked to my parents and got their opinion and started looking around at other options. I talked to my aparment manager and was able to find someone to buy out my part of the lease. As I was venting to my girlfriends they were saying how their contract was up at their apartment and that we should all go in on a place together.

So........here is our new townhome!

It is located in Lehi by Thanksgiving Point. It has 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a theater room, and a nice little backyard. It is perfect because we can have an office, especially for me, and actually entertain friends and family. The two dogs, Delila and Lola, can run around in the backyard and we don't have to worry about them! I am really excited and as they finish cleaning it I will take some more pictures of it.

The first day of school hasn't even started and I am going crazy! I work for the school and students are starting to come in to get everything in order. But the thing is....we're in college, not kindergarten! I'm sorry but after dealing with so much, I have to let it out! Here is my list of STUPID THINGS I DEAL WITH:

1. Once again, we are in college which means we are ADULTS. So please do NOT bring your
mother to school with you and act like you never learned how to speak!
2. I am sorry that you didn't realize that school costs money and that if you don't pay, then you
don't take classes.
3. See that pen in my hand, I'm not just holding it for fun, I use it to write with! So PLEASE do
not grab it out of MY HAND!
4. The bookstore is not a library, those books cost money, lots of money!
5. If my desk says BUSY, that means I am BUSY. I'm not pretending to do something just so
that I can find enjoyment in telling you that even though you are in college, you are expected
to read and what my sign says is true!
6. The more upset and agitated you get the more I don't want to help you. So when you tell me
that I am stupid because the State Legislature passed a law that requires you to live in Utah
for a year, than yes you are right...I AM A STUPID POO POO FACE!
7. I am not a magic genie in a bottle, staring at me for 2 straight minutes, thinking I will change
my mind and all the sudden your tuition is cheaper, DOES NOT WORK!

Ok, I actually do feel a little better after that. So each day I will post my new adventures with COLLEGE STUDENTS!

Preach My Gospel

Steven entered the MTC today. It was very bittersweet. I didn't realize how much I would miss him but I am so excited for him as well. I know that he will do everything he can to be the best that he can be. He is such a strong person and always has the best intent. He will be a great servant of the Lord and I know that the people of Tucson, Arizona are waiting for him.

It Was Stupid

What is the best way to get a girl to not wear her heels?

Break her foot/ankle! Yep, that's what happened to this girl...she fractured her foot! How you ask? Don't worry, it wasn't riding my four wheeler, boating, or even wearing my heels and somehow falling. Friday night I was running to get to my car when I stepped off the curb in my apartment's parking lot and stepped on an uneven part of the ground and rolled my ankle. 3 hours later, I find out in the ER that I have fractured the 4th metatarsal in my right foot and have road rash on my left knee.

It is getting closer and closer to Steven leaving on his mission so Whittney and Brett thought it would be fun for all of the siblings to go to the Spanish Fork Fiesta Day's Rodeo together. When Whittney, Steven, and I were little our great-grandparents took us to the Spanish Fork rodeo every year so this was a really sentimental and fun rodeo.

My dad passed on his cowboy boots to Brett...I used to wear them when I was a little girl and walk around in my dress and cowboy boots!

He's Still Got It!

It was a little late in the summer but we got the boat out and spent a late afternoon out on Jordanelle. It was so pretty to watch the sun set while sitting on the water. But the best part was seeing my dad catch some pretty sweet air!! How is it that a 22 year old can only last half the time than an ALMOST 50 year old?!?

Catching some air!
Doin' his thing!
Daddy Daughter...so sweet!

Then we got the girls, Amanda and Alex, out on the water and not only were they flying but Alex decided she was going to take an insane half hour ride flipping and flopping all over the place!

Alex flying off!!

Grad School?!?

So here I am completing my Senior year of college and I am thinking to myself, "what next?". I thought that by this time in my life I would be married but alas I am not. So why not just continue going to school, who knows...by the time I get married I could have 2 Doctorate degrees!! ha ha! So I have been looking into grad school and my program is Marriage and Family Therapy. Now its just a matter of where, when, and how! There is a new University in Draper that works with graduate students that are working at the same time and I am really interested. I have a tour scheduled and a meeting with an advisor. So, now that I have come to terms that I may have a couple more years left of school, I definitely think it will be worth it! You can just call me Dr. Dani ;)
