So busy!

Sorry family it has been such a long time since i have updated my blog. I have just been so busy with school and its hard to find time to get to a computer unless i use the ones at school. I just want you all to know that i am doing great! The last few weeks has been really tough for me especially with the whole drew thing. This has definitely been one of the hardest times in my life but i feel like i have grown so much from all that i have had to go through. I especially have grown spiritually and i feel much stronger these days! I have come to the realization lately that things really do happen for a reason! I FINALLY got a job last week. I work at Fro Yo. It is a frozen yogurt place right by my apartment. Trying to find a job as been such a stressor for me these last few months so it was such a relief to finally have one work out. I feel really good about this job so we will see how it works out! I love provo so much and everything about it. If i come home for the summer, i really will miss it so much. Anyways I want you all to know how much i love you and miss you so much!! I feel so disconnected from my family these days so i am going to try to update and check my blog more often and call everyone!

Mini Roadtrip

On the way back we stopped to see tara, ashley's cousin
trying to get the subway smell off of me




ashleys car broke down in st george so we had to ride a shuttle back to provo



superman and lois lane








we stayed at ashleys aunts house in st george
i look so possessed in this picture haha





I seriously struggle with this bloggin business and i have all these gaps in between my pictures so your going to have to bear with me! We didnt have school on presidents day so two of my roomies and i wanted to do something really fun and crazy. and to just get away for the day. We figured why not road trip down to st george! Ash had fam their and didnt even think about possible consequences of it(being the naturally reckless people we are). We set off for st george around 4 pm on Monday. None of us have school on Tuesday so we figured it would be ok to go so late. We made lots of random stops and took lots of pictures along the way. We stopped in Santaquin, Yuba lake(where i cut my foot really badly and got very muddy from it), and of course we had to stop in filmore to get there yummy potato logs! It feels almost like tradition in our family because i always remember having to stop there when we would come visit Utah growing up. We stopped in Beaver to have frozen hot chocs(last time we drove through we had the best ones there so..we had to stop). By this time it was dark. When we drove through Parawon we saw a mysterious light so we had to stop. We found out it was just from an airport which was VERY creepy. We continued on and once we hit cedar city it started to snow lightly. But once we were past cedar city we hit a huge snow storm. It was very scary because we could not see the lines on the road and the snow was coming down in slants. It was probably one of the most terrifying moments of my life! We made it to st george and luckily it was only raining there! We just messed around there for awhile. We had to eat in n out :) good news one is coming to draper and orem! We saw the temple, and drove to overlook st george. We also found some great puddles to drive through. We timed it perfectly so that we would totally splash the cars next to us..it was so funny! After awhile ashleys car started making a wretched noise and quit working. We pushed her car to the side of the road. Naturally this had to happen to us haha after a couple of hours of talking to ashleys brothers on the phone trying to figure out what was wrong, they thought it might be the transmission. So we had ashleys cousin come pick us up to sleep at their house. The next morning we had ashleys car towed to cedar city where her sister in laws brother lived. We took her cousins car to cedar city where she goes to SUU. There we caught this shuttle van thing back to provo. THose people brought her car up on a dolley last weekend and thankfully asia had a 100 miles free for towing with her AAA card! It was quite an interesing trip that turned out to be longer and harder than we thought. If i could go back and not go on that trip i wouldnt do it! It had been a long time since i had been adventurous and it really took my mind off of stresses in my life right now. I have a blast with my roomies and i really am going to miss them this summer :( sorry again for the huge gaps haha







































thats right i had the world famous potato logs from fillmore!
