puppies, roses and festivals

FHE at Brother Seamon's home. Cute puppies!

my lovely twin came on tuesday and we spent the day together laughing, talking and getting so excited for her life at BYU!

Shelby and I rant the Bungee Run
about 10 times before we collapsed.
It was so great!

Notice how I'm laughing while Carter's face shows that he is on a mission
to beat me. I am just NOT competitive at all!

Carter surprised me with a spontaneous date on
the Temple grounds at sunset. I sure love him <3

Hawaiian Luau

What do you do when there's snow outside and you're freezing to death?
Throw a Luau, that's what!

Last Saturday I threw a Luau party!! It was the BEST PARTY EVER!

As people arrived in their floral shirts and khaki shorts, Haley gave them a Lei and googled their Hawaiian name and gave them their new nametag. I had made about 50 fruit skewers of pinapples, grapes and strawberries and everyone ate them so fast! Thanks Mom and Grandma for all these amazing party ideas! I love you guys J

I made grass skirts for everyone and we all looked so hawaiian, it was awesome!!

We played Twister, Limbo, Psychiatrist, Slaps, and Pin the Coconut on the Palm Tree!

Then during the Talent show part of the party, Omar, Haley and I were the opening act and sang “Flightless Bird”. Haha we sounded pretty good…haha Then Jared and Carter performed an Island song they had written, it was so beautiful!!

 

 

Sammy's anyone?

Sammy's is a local burger joint here in Rexburg that everyone who's anyone hangs out at...not really. It's a little along the lines of a 'hipster hangout' but they have fantastic burgers, amazing french fries, and absolutely delicious Pie Shakes that are pretty much heaven in a cup.

They also have local and well-known bands come and perform on their improvised stage. We went to one of these 'mini concerts' and HAD THE BEST TIME EVER! We rocked out in the very front row!

We Shot the Moon gave an awesome performance! We were lucky enough to grab the band members for a quick photo. It was such an epic concert, meet and greet and we had the best time singing at the top of our lungs in the car ride home. 

Mustache Mondays are also a favorite.

Shelby, Haley and I sporting our staches. We are just so lovely with facial hair, aren't we?

I am just soooooo excited for Spring Semester with them? 

Carter didn't even need a fake mustache--his scruff was sufficient

3 Simple Steps to having a successful Mustache Monday:

1) Search couch for 2 precious quarters to purchase legit looking mustache from vending machine at grocery store

2) walk proudly into Sammy's on any Monday of choice with facial hair attached to upper lip

3) Order yummy Grilled Cheese sandwich for only 80 cents!

I admit that I do have an aversion to facial hair, but if it gets me Grilled Cheese sandwiches for less than a dollar, I am ALL FOR it!

After FHE on monday nights we pile into Carter's car and speed over to Sammy's for some straight up deloishous Grilled Cheese goodness. It really is the only way to start the week.

Chelsea Snow, oh I've missed her so much! She and I snuggled in Carter's cozy trunk with out magnificent mustaches. We would definitely date us.

Overall, it was another epic adventure at Sammy's
