What a weekend!

Hello family! 
I SHOULD be studying my little guts out right now, but I'm finding it hard to concentrate at the moment. I thought I'd just take a minute to update everyone on my extremely interesting life.....ha ha ya right. This past week has been quite enjoyable though. The other night my roommate and I got an itchin' to do some good ol' fashioned tie dying! So off to walmart we went. We picked up the tie dye kit, a pack of white sports bras, a pack of white underwear, white turtlenecks and these really awesome/awful sparkly tank tops that we had been wanting for MONTHS! We went back to the house and got started! I'll tell ya tie dying is about the greatest motivation to wake up the next day that I can think of. I could hardly sleep from the anticipation! And of course we were not disappointed. They turned out SUPER awesome. We didn't really like the turtlenecks, so we cut the neck part off and use it as headbands. Creative, we know. See pictures below....they'll blow your mind
This past weekend was president's day, and to celebrate RiKelle and I went to St. George with her family to participate in the parade of homes......WOW. Let me tell ya' these people know how to build some houses. There was this one house that was 19,000 square feet! It was HUGE. It had a half basketball court, FULL BLOWN racquet ball court, rock climbing wall, and putting range in the basement. I can't even describe how awesome this house was. It had this little play room for the kids that was ALL harry potter and they had painted it like it was diagon alley complete with the hogwarts express and everything. And all of this can be yours for only 3.5 million. A bargain if you ask me......Anyway I wish I would have gotten pictures. We also went hiking and it was amazing! NO SNOW TO BE SEEN! I almost forgot what it was like to live without the stuff, then I came back to logan.
Also, I just wanted to let everyone know that Tami got engaged this weekend. Her wedding is May 8th or something like that. Little Tami is growing up. I'm a little weirded out by it, but mostly extremely happy for her! Anyway that's all that is going on in my life. School is lame and I hate it more and more everyday. This is a bad week so my hatred is running pretty deep at the moment. I have to talk in church on sunday and I want to cry. I hate speaking in public. My voice shakes and I squeak. It's lame. Anyway I love you all and hope everyone is having a wonderful February!

Me, RiKelle, and her friend Cora.

That tie-dye takes me right back to 7th grade - 1989. Wow.
