"Romantic" Night with my girls!

As a lot of you know my roommate Kelsie's dad passed away last weekend. It of course has been a very big struggle for her :(

She came home late Thursday night, but Kaylen and I didn't get to see her until Friday. When we talked to her, we both could tell she was not doing the best. I decided she needed something to take her mind off of the world, boyfriend, job, school, etc...

So I told them NOT to make any plans, we were doing something. I took them to SUNDANCE! There are only certain times of the year they have the full moon night lift experience.

It was great, besides the fact that we were the only three girls on a lift without boys haha! It is a more of a romantic date, but we had fun anyway! Kelsey was so excited and I encourage anyone who hasn't done that before to DO IT! It truly was amazing. I hope Kelsie that she knows how many people care and love her and continue to keep looking forward with faith!

Love,

Me

Oh the JOYS of cooking!

So I consider myself a pretty good cook, but for some reason, this certain day was not in my favor :/

I decided to come home and eat lunch with my roommate Kelsey before she flew back to Texas, so we got to chatting (like most girls do, in my defense) and this is what happened.......

This same night Kaylen says, Lakyn do you just want to get the pizza roll ready when you get home, so we can hurry and eat and then leave (we had plans at 7, she got off work at 6). Of course the good roommate I am, I said Yes! It came out beautiful and looked sooo good! So what does Lakyn do?? Put it back in the oven to keep warm. I went back into my room to check something online and all the sudden I smelt smoke!!! OH NO.....I ran into the Kitchen and the smoke alarms started blaring in our apt, they were SO loud (all they really did was just make me panic more...geesh!) As soon as they went off Kaylen walked through the door to see me trying to rip the smoke alarm off the wall! Oh it was horrible :( My cooking confidence was SHOT!

So, the great friend Kaylen is she turned our burnt Lincoln long into a good situation. So, we just tipped it on over and ate the inside. It was DELISH!

To redeem myself, Kaylen and I made peach pies! :D

They were yummy!

Oh the joys of cooking ;D

Flashback

Last night I came back to Vernal for a friends wedding and when I left, I saw the U on the hill lit up in Red! A lot of the memories from Homecoming way back when, all came flooding back. White washing the U, having paint in my hair for a least a good month, freezing weather in Sept :( wanting to do a lot of push ups to get warmed up, having the best student body, and our football team loosing :/ I will have to say, I will always have my Ute Pride!

Homecoming 06'

GO UTES!
