a full day!

church at 9 am
that i am proud to admit
me and ann made all 3 hours..

me and ann really love my fuzzy socks

then home to sandy at 1:30
because dad has been called as
the second counselor in the bishopric!
im so proud of him
and i just think my dad ROCKS!

off to grandma haw's
to see aunt leslie and
visit for halloween
complete with a caramel apple bar!
[lydia asked me to sing at her baptism next sunday!]

then grandma nilsson's for a real halloween dinner.
going to grandmas is one of my very very favorite things.
there's always good family
and great food!
i love grandma's tradition of a spooky menu
with things such as
-bat bait
-freaky body parts
-goulish gorp
and so on.
so you order, but you dont know what your going to get!
you could get a good plate such as
a roll
ribs
potatoes
and salad
but you may have no ordered a fork!
or you could order something like
a glass of water
a glass of apple juice
a fork
and a napkin!
and when everyone has their meal
then you can go get what you want.
it's really the greatest.

then theres grandmas "spook ally" in the garage.
which really was spooky when i was little.
but this year grandma was just a crack up.
haha oh i love her.

then i ride home with tanner and ashley
and tanner is on the phone the whole way home
and me and ashley talk to whole way home.
i really loved it.
i love that she is my sister now.
she and jenna are seriously the greatest!
my brothers chose well!

we watched pentatonix [group from the sing-off]
because they are totally awesome.
i reccomend looking them up on hulu
or youtube.
amazing. i love them.

it was a full sunday.
with family and friends.
what could be better!

i love having to class on fridays..

but i had a date tonight,
with carlos again!
he took me to Guru's for dinner
and comedy sportz.
its like "who's line is it anyway"
in provo.

SO funny!
and tons of fun!

when we got back to my apartment
my roommates watched a scary movie
but annie was asleep in our room
so there was no where for me to go
so me and carlos just sat on the kitchen counter
and talked.
it was a long night.. haha
good thing there is nothing to wake up early for
on saturdays..:)

ohhh its a jolly olly day with marrryyy!

[been stuck in my head
all the day long!]

after my computer tech class
addison picked me up
and took me back to provo.

add looooves ceramics
and asked me to do it with him!
we played around on the wheel
[im not very good at that..]
but then we hand built.
[im good at that]
i made a clam bowl [impressed myself]
addison made me a clock
that says 11:11 make a wish:]
and
then we started to build a tree
for my jewelry.
i think it's gonna be legit!
