Boyce Avenue and Christmas

I have discovered a new love.... Boyce Avenue.  If you haven't heard them do so now.

 

"On My Way"

 

On another note, I am homesick.Very, very, homesick.I can't help but miss my home, my stuff, my friends and family. I even miss the snow. I want a White Christmas so badly. It is just so weird that its... warm for the Holidays. I mean, Christmas in the Summer? I don't even get rain here!

 

I bet it will still be great, white Christmas or not. And I have some big plans for the new year. I've started thinking about my new year resolutions, I have quite a few of them this year.

 

THERES A 104 DAYS OF SUMMER VACATION

and school comes along just to end it, so the anual problem with our generation is FINDING A GOOD WAY TO SPEND IT... My Top 10 Summer Projects: #10-Finishing the American Bear latch hook rug #9-Learning to Knit #8-Completing my reading list (see below) #7-Painting my room #6-Making/painting shelves and a vanity #5-Making a magnetic makeup board #4-Reading my required school books #3-Finish Faith and Goodworks in YW's #2-Making at least 1 new friend #1-Advertise and find at least one babysitting job News news news... My twin cousins are sleeping over tonight but they have to go help their sister (Em) with moving. Meh. Other than that.. last night was wonderful. I got to sleep in my own bed after 6 months! 6 months. That' a long time. And it was pure bliss. My cousin Er is being a jerk. Jo is definately more supportive. It's 'cause she's a girl. Girl power you know? Apparently we are going to have a meeting and then a big war... and then play sardines.. we have the house to ourself tonight. AHHH GTG BEFORE I GET SHOT!

The Update on Life

It's been too long since I have blogged about my life. We bought a house after looking at 38 houses! It look about two months. The house we choose is a big house in Richmond UT. It has three bedrooms,two and a half bathrooms, a den, a laundry/mud room and a family room/kitchen on the main floor. In the basement we have three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sitting area, a movie room and a gym. I told you it was a big house. Me and Marissa have the upstairs bedrooms and a jack and jill bathroom between the two which is super nice since I wont have to share with the boys. My cousin Em and her husband Jared are going to be moving into the basement. We think it will all work out. I'm not quite sold on the idea yet. I like them but I am not really close with them and am not sure how I'ts going to work out. There will have to be a few changes with both of our families but it should be okay. The first (of two) shipment of stuff came yesterday and it was super exciting. I now have my bed and dresser and a makeshift desk. I got the extra bed since I wanted a bigger bed and marcus is using it until we buy him his own bed (or until Zach goes on his mission)OH! I forgot, Zach got his mission call to... CALGARY CANADA We just can't get away, eh? Other than that, nothing new. I met the YW's in my new ward and they all seem nice and pretty normal. I am almost finished with school, I just need to send in a few last minute assignments and marks. I got new bedding today too. It changes what I want my wall colors to be though(which I have changed a million times now). I'll try to be better about posting Heres a summeryish black and white pict I took a while ago...
