wishing i was back in cancun.... this snow is ruining all of my boots. i think it's time for a  vaca.

today

Hope you have a very happy Sunday!

Church was very inspiring. Now it's time to make treats for our little party tonight. 

dodge ball & yoga

At BYUI they offer so many fun things to do. Devin and his friends got together and made a dodge ball team and play against other teams every weekend. This weekend they dominated and the opposing team forfeited (spelling?) after losing so many times. They all wear Sonics Jerseys and I have one too so I represent. I'm not biased or anything... but my boy is GOOD at this game. Some of my good friends came to watch too since their husbands/boy friends also play on the team (ill get a pic of us next time)

Love Danny's pose here, they are entertaining.

Mr. All star

... have you ever done yoga? I know everyone talks about it... but really now I know why. The school offers yoga for beginner/pregnancy/ and advanced . I have started taking classes now and next week will also start to take some work out classes. I LOVE IT. Dev and I try to work out 5 times a week and I am excited to get more into these other classes rather than just go to the gym. What kind of things do you do to stay fit??

missing you

 I got thinking about some friends I was missing today as I sat in a boring class. Some of my greatest friends are all dispersed now. Missing you, thinking of you, love you friends.

quote junkie

When Dev and I were cheesy lovers (I think we still are) back when we dated, we would always send each other little quotes for the day. I was looking through them and found this one.... who else loves this quote as much as I do?


"I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I won't look back, let up, slow down, or be still. I no longer need pre-eminence, positions, promotions, or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk with patience, am uplifted by prayer, and labor with power. My face is set, my gate is fast, my goal is heaven. My road is narrow, my way is rough. My companions are few, my guide is reliable, my mission is clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, divided, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I won't give up, shut up, or let up until I have stayed up, stored up, and paid for the cause of Christ. I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, and work till He stops me, and when He returns for His own, He will have no problem recognizing me, my banner will be clear-- Henry B. Eyring

cooking together

This was a way fun dinner my friend Dani told me about. Get 12 "Rhodes Rolls" put them in a microwave in a plastic baggy for 90 sec.

put flour down and roll them out 

put in oven at 400 for 3 min

take out put toppings on ( we put onion, cheese, mushroom, parsley, pineapple, sauce)

put back in for around 10-15 min.

His job was to be the roller of the dough

Mr. Chef man

about to go in the oven, notice Devin's pretzel he made on the side

 ready to eat!

so yummy, the best part is that we got to make them together! 

It's the month of LOVE! Give lots of kisses and hugs!

We went to Austin's funeral this past weekend in Utah. Although it was so sad to see such a loving friend die too soon, his funeral was an unexpected learning experience. The things said at the funeral inspired me. The time is now to to cherish, embrace, take advantage of all that I am and can become. My views on life have changed.

You are good. But it is not enought to just be good. You must be good for something. You must contribute to the world. The world must be a better place for your presence. And the good in you must be spread to others. --Gordon B. Hinckley 

I find peace in this tonight. A high school friend of both Devin and I passed away tonight. Austin LaBato rest in peace, we know heavenly father is taking care of you now.

weekend

Cont. of the dinner party night.... We invited more friends over after dinner for cookie monsters (half baked chocolate chip cookies with ice cream on top) and then went to play in the snow, and games and hot chocolate after.

Here is the baker himself

Jamie with our desert

Jen (my cute friend from high school) Jamie and Dani... can you tell were frozen

My cute coat was one of my many gifts from Dev for Christmas, it is even more sweet because it is the SESSIONS snow boarding company (Dev knows how I miss my last name sometimes hehe)

Jam took this shot of Brent and Dev on a tube... they were flying. All of us were peeing our pants laughing at all the kids taking huge falls and rolling down the hills when they hit jumps. So entertaining.
