Knees, Spiders, and School

This past weekend I drove down to Riverton,UT and spent two days with one of my favorite people ever; my aunt Bonnie! She recently had a knee replaced and I went to go keep her company/ help her out. We had a lot of fun(or not depending on what we were doing) going to physical therapy, receiving visitors, attempting to watch movies, doing facials, talking, and laughing. I took my camera with me to capture some of our moments together, but of course, I never took a single picture. Typical me. Still, it was a fun weekend and I am so grateful that Bonnie let me come stay with her. Love you Bonnie!!!




Now I thought about posting a picture for this next segment of post, but knew that some of you might get a little freaked out by it. You know those big, ugly, brown, nasty things we like to call hobo spiders? I HATE THEM! I don't know what is going on this year, but they sure seem to be entering our house in droves. Just last night, I killed four of those suckers in under two hours! I wish they would get out of my life!!! They creep me out and just keep coming and coming... I just needed to get it off my chest how much these things bug me(no pun intended).

On a happier note, today is my last first day of school!!! Yep, I am starting my last semester of college! I'm kind of freaking out just a little that the end is so near because that means I really need to start focusing on a job and what I plan to do when I am out in the "real" world. Despite being scared out of my mind with what the future has in store for me, I still feel like this when I think about being done with school:
Oh and cute new clothes on the first day don't hurt either...

25 Years of Life




Yesterday I turned 25!


What a FABULOUS birthday! I went to the hot springs with the fam in the morning(we had the pool all to ourselves which was SO nice), and then we went and saw Harry Potter(yes, again. I think I liked it even more the second time), and after that, we came home and did all the preparations for the big birthday bash we had planned for that night. As most of you know, I share my birthday with my cousin Casey, so we had a joint b-day party.

We ate lots of food and cake and ice cream, opened presents, and just enjoyed a wonderful evening together. After the party, my mom and I went to the Cache County Fair and took a little ride on the tilt-a-whirl(it's my favorite ride), and then we came home and watched a movie. What a perfect day! Thank you to everyone who helped make the big 2-5 memorable!
