I have been TAGGED! Thanks Jessica! Here are 6 fantastic and fun things that you people may or may not know about me!! Enjoy! I have tagged 6 of you...so I better see some fantastic results!
1. Food Quirks- I know this may sound weird, but I always blow on the top of milk jugs before I pour. I hate the dried milk flakes that fall into my cereal or cup of milk. I also do not eat misshaped foods; for example, if an M&M is misshaped, out it goes!
2. Clocks- I have a rather small obsession with clocks. One would say, I collect them! I am very particular about my clocks….I don’t just collect any old clocks. They have to look a certain way. Currently I own 14 beautiful clocks, with definite intentions on buying some more! When you sit in my living room, and the TV is off….the ticking is almost enough to drive one crazy!! It doesn’t bother me so much anymore…but other people think I am nuts! Currently all of my clocks except for 3 are working; daylight savings is a big day around here! I am a busy girl.
3. School- Most people that go to college for 7 years, are called Doctors….I however, I am just called crazy!! YES, I am STILL IN SCHOOL!! And no, I am not a Doctor. The other added bonus…I have been to 5 different colleges! I can explain.
1. Bellevue Community College- my senior year for Sign Language.
2. Ricks/ BYU-Idaho- Freshman Year
3. Utah Valley State- One summer term…(hated it!!)
4. American Institute- Graduated in Medical Assisting
5. Utah State- FINALLY graduating Summer 2008 in Architecture & Design
4. I kissed 4 guys in ONE NIGHT!!! (My parents are so proud!) Only details I will disclose: It was one crazy night, while on vacation to Seattle; I was not alone (just ask Tracy, Ashley and Sabrina) and it was New Years Eve!! What a way to bring in the new year!! My dad called me a Lip Slut!
5. The three C’s I am afraid of…CATS, CLOWNS AND CLIFFS! No joke, I not only hate CATS, but I am seriously afraid of them. There has been many nights I have woken up in a cold sweat, with my heart beating out of my chest; all because I had a dream I was cornered or chased by a cat….and yes, a house cat. I am truly afraid. CLOWNS; have you ever seen Steven Kings “IT”…I saw it when I was little, and sure enough, that stupid movie has ruined me forever. I really hate clowns and will not watch movies with them in it. CLIFFS; I am not afraid of heights, but I am however afraid of cliffs. I don’t like driving near cliffs, even on Highways where you can’t see what’s on the other side, I will drive in the furthest lane possible…or drive really soon! I am just sure I will die someday from being chased off a cliff by a clown and then getting eaten alive by a cat.
6. I have been pulled over 6 times since living in Logan, and I have gotten out of EVERY SINGLE TICKET!! I have some serious skills!! But honestly, the cops here get bored, and pull you over for the dumbest reasons:
1. Not using my blinker 1 out of the 3 times he was following me…ah hello, I used it TWICE!! The odds were in my favor:)
2. Tires not close enough to the curb on a right hand curb…did he not see the pedestrian?
3. Speeding on a mtn. road…close call
4. Tires not close enough to the curb again…this time, I was at a stop sign and realized that I was going to miss my turn….I checked and no one was around, so I turn right…LAME!
5. Speeding again….it was more like a seatbelt check! Good thing I was wearing it!
6. Running a stop sign….I really didn’t see it!
Either way, my beautiful blue eyes and blonde hair work every time! All I have to be is my sweet charming self, and BAM…I flirt my way to success!
Thanks Jess for tagging me! This was so fun! I am now going to tag the following 6 people...and I expect BIG RESULTS! LINDA, STEFANIE, KIM, HOLLY, KATIE, APRIL. GET ON IT GIRLS

Hey baby...I've missed you
As many of you know...for years my mom and I have played this little game of "Hey baby, I've missed you..." It is a sick little game, I will admit, but we have the greatest time. The best part is, we don't talk about it, and we never have. It is a game, just between the two of us that has gone on now for about three years. How it works is, Liman (the attractive naked man) travels between the two of us. Whoever has the card will secretly hide it somewhere for the other person to come across. He has been many places over the years as well. He has been all the way to GA and to WA and CA. He is quite the traveler.
He has been known to hide in many places....under your covers, in your underwear drawer, wallet, purse, bathroom drawer, visor of your car, ect.
We have even involved other people from time to time. My favorite, is while we were at Outback Stakehouse, I pulled the waiter aside on my way to the bathroom and slipped him the card...he later walked up to the table, to my mom, and said that an older man had left a little note for her, and slipped her the card. It was classic!!
Another time I blew him up, and my dad and I dressed him up and put him in the front seat of my mom's car...it was really funny looking.
Even though we sound nuts...it is really fun, and has been going on for years. The card usually show's up about once a month, but it is the constant fear that you are going to get Liman, that is half the fun:)

Francis, the Little Goat
As many of you know, I have 25 goals that I need to do before I turn 25....well time is ticking. Today I was able to cross off another fantastic goal. I PET A BABY GOAT. Now I realize that this goal may be different than some of yours, but how many of you reading this can say you have pet a baby goat? Well, I HAVE!!
This is Francis, a sweet little goat. I love her big tummy:) Francis eventally thinks she is part dog and part cow. She even has a dog collar with tags.
Francis wouldn't leave her black and white friends, so Rachel (Francis' sister) and I ventured very slowly into the pen to try and coax her out. As we were standing in the pen, this is what we saw....a bunch of cows. Well as many of you know, BULLS are not known for their hospitality, and soon we found out that umongst all of these ugly smelly ladies, was the man of the pen...A HUGE BULL!! Well after I nearly wet myself, we quickly shimmied out of the pen, alive.
Here is the beast himself....we went through the barn to try and pet Francis through the fence; and long behold this is what we saw as we got into the next pooh covered pen. Like his nose ring? This sucker grunted and mooed like he liked what he saw....I was like a walking pork chop to him.
Clearly I wasn't giving up now, so I walked along the water trough and entered yet another pen(because, I love danger)....Francis is clearly part chicken, and didn't want me to pet her.....ohh and while Liz was supposed to be on cow watch, clearly one slipped by her and was right behind me, smelling me and getting ready for a big lick. Once again, I nearly wet myself.
I should be a photographer for a dairy....what a cool looking picture!
Luckily as I was leaving, Rachels dad came home and gave us a hand. Francis adores him and follows him around like a little lost dog. He picked up Francis and I stroked his little head...much like you would a dog. He made his goat noises, but was oldly very friendly. We made our connection:)
Talk about a tender moment....Look at the stupid cows in the background....I bet they are thinking how nice I would taste with some BBQ sauce....cause I was thinking the same thing about them:)
Either way.....I GOT TO PET A GOAT!!! It was a fantastic day!! And a huge thanks to Rachel, Liz, Franics and Mr. Farmer man for helping me with my long lost dream!

Goal: Homemade apple pie
One of my other goals was to make a "homemade" apple pie. The best part about making the rules, is breaking the rules....Since I was the one who made the goals and the rules that go along with them, I am also the committee that changes the rules aswell....Instead of making a homemade crust, Liz and I decided to "save" time and use a homemade crust from Pilsbury:)
In the end, it doesn't matter how you make it, or what you did....the end result is the same. Top it off with a little ice cream, it it tastes like heaven.....we are sure amazing little chefs:) Best part is...another goal to check off!!

Landon and MaLese come to play!
Saturday night after Mom and Carly left, Landon and MaLese came up for a visit. Today after church we went up to Logan Canyon and took some engagement pictures. The canyon is just about ready to "die", but there are still some beautiful fall colors. I had so much fun with my family this weekend....Dad and Nike better back their bags...it is their turn next!
After a little sunday dinner.....she will fit right it...look at her beautiful smile!
MaLese has the prettiest eyes!! I love this picture because her blue eyes are popping out of her head! OHHH by the way, they are getting married on December 28th....mark your calendars
She is sitting ontop of a bridge over second dam...this was right before he pushed her off.....JUST KIDDING!! They are so cute together, it is sick....
Words cannot describe this picture......Doesn't he remind you of a little lion cub?
Landon went through my closet and picked out his pajamas....UTAH STATE sweats and a furry vest....he looks fantastic!! (Don't you love how the sweats are nearly capris???) all I can say is...WHAT A NERD...but a cute nerd.

Girls Night!
This weekend Mom and Carly came up to Zion (aka Logan) to visit (or check on) Katie and I.....we had so much fun. Friday night we went shopping, ate lots of cookies and ice cream and watched a movie. Saturday we went shopping and then went to FIREHOUSE...basically the best pizza place ever. It went really fast, but it was so fun to have them here. We just had a huge sleepover at my house. I love girls weekends!
All-Star Guitar Hero....goes to DONNA DAVIS!! I wish you could see her rockstar outfit....her boots and mini-skirt are amazing. She is still working on a stage name.
This girl is addicted!! We couldn't get her off the stage! If you have never played this game....it is actually quite fantastic. My roommate and I always seem to remember how much we love guitar hero around finals time, or late at night, right before a big test or project.

Middle of the night beast
Remember how I said I was so proud because I stayed out of the ER? Well after about 6 hours of feeling bettter, the little beasts came back full swing. Probably the worst yet:( So my sweet sister stayed with me last night, and together we hit up the ER to check out the night scene. I was only in there for about 1.5 hrs....just got some good drugs and came home! But today I'm feeling much better!! And thanks Linda for the tips! I am a heavy water drinker, but I probably could cut out the chocolate a little bit:) Thanks for taking care of me:) LOVE YOU

My poor little Kidney
Yes....once again, I passed another kidney stone today. So technically I have birthed two children. However, this time I managed to stay out of the ER....it had it's benefits. For one thing my total bill for the day was under $50.00, however I was a lot sicker this time around. My awesome friend Jake was awoken by a crazy woman, almost in tears.....I knew I could call him at 6:45am; because he is one of the only people I know that shares in my kidney pain. He was in a motorcycle accident about 8 months ago and exploded his Kidney...therefore I now have a partner in crime. Well I went to the Student Health Center and then off to my doctor where he gave me a fantastic butt shot, and slowly throughout the day, I have felt relief. Ohhh, new record...I threw up 7 times today. Neat huh? Twice in Jakes truck....but I made it in a bag and I think we are still friends:) So, I am looking for current 'home remedies' for Kidney Stones...if you have heard of any send them my way!! And I pray that none of you ever have to get stoned against your will:)

I love Logan, and could live here forever!! I love the weather, the people and the quint little town!! It is amazing here!! You should check it out for yourself...I love visitors. I have a fantastic couch:)
Here is the Logan Temple...amazing view! I love this temple, it is up on it's own little hill and looks over the valley, with the mtns in the background! BREATHTAKING!
This is the view from my bedroom window...minus the condo's and telephone poles...I have a spectacular view! Do you see the red forming on the mtn side?? I LOVE IT!!
