Just a little catch up...

Here are a bunch of random pictures I don't have anywhere to put... in no particular order here's what I've been up to!

A group of us at half off appetizers at Applebee's.

Daniel and I at Harry Potter Midnight showing!! Such a great movie!! We had a fun group that all went together but this is the only picture I got.

A couple of our friends had a combined birthday party at a tumbling gym. It was a blast!

This picture was from a quite a while ago. We went and got Sammy's shakes and ate them on the roof. Fun stuff!
This is our friend Kevin. He treats us like we are ten years old at times.. Thus the present of balloons that he gave us. He knows us well.. We had fun for hours.

This semester our apartment was involved with a lot of intramural teams. Members of our apartment were part of kickball, flag football, soccer, and ultimate frisbee teams. Along with all the teams we were involved in, lots of our friends are on teams as well. We tried to attend as many as we could.. Anyway, this picture represents intramurals this semester.. we were watching Daniel's ultimate game and it was freezing cold!!!!

That's right, Kelsey got her mission call!!! She's going to the Salt Lake Temple Square mission! Which means I'll still be able to see her once in a while!!!! She's going to be so great! But I'll miss her as a roommate! She reports February 2nd so this is our last semester together! With Jill married, Sara on her mission and Kelsey leaving on her mission it just leaves Katie and I from freshman year in our apartment! Crazy how things can change so quickly!

After Kelsey opened her call with our little group. Sadly, Katie was in D.C. for an interview and couldn't be there.
So excited!!

Well there's my random catch up post! Hope you enjoyed!

Fort 457

Well, here's another reason why my Mom thinks I need to grow up.. haha, just kidding.. but seriously. We built a fort a while back. It was probably the best fort I've help make. And even though I haven't tried to make one since being about 10, I'd say my roommates and I did quite a good job!


Complete with vaulted ceilings.
Good thing we had feet and feet of PVC pipe laying around.

Here are a couple different angles of the finished product.

Honestly, I think you're never too old for a fort!

Yeeeehaw!


I believe I wrote a while back about how we have a throwback Thursday movie night every Thursday night. Well, this week we had a cowboy night and watched Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Our friend Kevin made homemade root beer and we all dressed up. It was a fun night!

Kelsey and Kevin after their shoot out.


We even decorated for the occasion.

We had quite a few of bandits show up for the round up... here are a few.

My roommate Kelsey turned 21 yesterday! It's crazy to think that I've known Kelsey (and my other roommies from freshman year) for 4 years!! I've been with her to celebrate 4 of her 21 birthdays! crazy! We had a few celebrations on Sunday in honor of her! We had dinner as roommates. (plus old roommate Jill and her husband Brandon) We then made caramel apples! I stole the idea from my Sister Laura... They were delicious! That night we had a few people over for cake. Let's just say I've had enough sugar this weekend to last me a while!

My roommates Maria and Aubrey and myself prepping the apples.



Jill and Brando. We love when they visit!
Maria and Melanie! This was Maria's first time making/eating caramel apples!!!

The finished product!
Aubrey loves it!

Yay for birthday's! and Costco's wonderful Chocolate cake!!

Roommies! Sadly Katie is in D.C. this weekend interviewing and had to miss the festivities.. She was missed greatly.

They're Grrrrrrreat!

Well, Halloween is here again and this year we wanted to go all out! So after throwing out many ideas we finalized on....... Cereal characters! Tony the Tiger, Cap'n Crunch, Lucky the Leprechaun, and Toucan Sam. We had a ward party last night and dressed up. Here are some pics!

Kelsey the convict... before her costume was done.

Just making some wings.

Tony!

Here's the whole crew! I think they all came together quite nicely!

Happy Halloween everyone!

Fall is in the air!

My roommates and I went on a drive up Alpine loop by Sundance the other day. The leaves are starting to change colors! They aren't super vivid yet.. but they are getting there! It got me so excited for fall! Here are a few pics of the fun afternoon!



We took Cafe Rio up and had a picnic!
Gotta love self timer photos! What would we do without them!


This picture was surprisingly difficult to get... I think we had about 10 shots before this one..
Gotta love the roommies! And fall!!!

Nothin' like the state fair!

A group of us went to the state fair this weekend! Here are some pictures from the adventure!



So excited to be at the fair!!!


The pictures from here on is documentation of the food we ate while there... here's a blooming onion.

Roommies!! (we wore the tye-dye to not get lost.. it worked really well!)

Turkey leg anyone?

That, my friends, would be a deep fried PB&J. Surprisingly good.
Deep fried snickers... also delicious!

The group with all the fried food!

The favorite of the night would have to be the deep fried chocolate covered bacon. Only at the state fair...
