Roommates, Boyfriend, & Car Crashes.

Wow, so it's been an insanely long time since I've updated this blog. So much has happened since the last time I updated. I really don't even know where to begin!

Anyways, I just wanted to write down certain things that have crossed my mind.

My roommate, Shadie, & her boyfriend Jed are going to get married this August! Can you believe that?! It was only last August that they met!

Well, since Shadie will be moving out after the summer time, I've been thinking about some of the changes that I'd have to face. It will definitely be strange having a roommate that isn't Miss Shadie Ann. She's such a good roommate, even better friend, and probably the greatest "sister" that I'll ever have. I'm glad she and Jed are together... I really can't think of anyone better for her!

So, the troubles of "a new roommate" have been weighing on my mind... but I'm sure it'll all work out alright. I'm pretty sure Perla, one of my other roommates, and I will be sharing a room next Fall. She's so much fun. I guess it's just hard for me to get used to the idea, haha.

Oh! Hm, Scott came to visit me during Spring Break! It was so much fun. He's so amazing and so good to me :) I really am a lucky girl. Haha. He went through the trouble of asking my parents how they felt about us dating... and if it was alright if we did. Gosh, NO ONE has ever done that for me before. Scott really is something else. I'm so happy with him! He makes me happy.

Let's see... my spring break was March 6th - 16th. I celebrated my 21st birthday with my family & boyfriend. I got to go to Salt Lake and see stuff around there with Scott. Oh, but the biggest thing that happened was probably my car accident. Ugh.

Some girl was reading at the wheel... and she rear ended me at about 30 - 35 mph... Yeah. We were stopped at a light behind some other cars... and she wasn't paying attention. I was at the wheel, Scott in the passenger's seat, and my brother, Darryl, right behind me.

The car hit where Darryl was sitting... (no worries, he is fine... none of us were hurt too bad)... but it was pretty shocking. (Click it or ticket, by the way) ...you know.

But through this experience, I was able to see the hand of God in my life. Before we were hit, we were kind of just sitting in the car... not really talking or anything. My hands were on the wheel... the car was stopped behind the car in front of us... normal, right? Well, when the car hit us from behind, my car went flying forwards (about 10ft - 12ft) ...and headed right. It wasn't in my mind to even turn to the right until the car started going in that direction...

I knew that it was Heavenly Father... guiding the car out of the way... He made it possible so that wouldn't hit the car parked in front of us. I know this. It's amazing how we can really see his Hand... how little "miracles" like that can bless us, even change us.

Anyways, that's pretty much all I wanted to share... haha. I'll leave you with pictures of my Corolla after the accident. Oh! By the way, her insurance paid for everything... including my new Honda Civic 2006 :D haha. yay!

Random Happenings in Logan.

Hello there, bloggers [:

It's been a while since I've updated this thing, so I thought I should fill you in on some of the random happenings in Logan. First off, I'd like to introduce the world to Weeder, our new apartment fish. BF (Big Fish) recently passed away and we needed a new little friend for the apartment.

Funny story though, we had two fish... Weeder & Diah. We now only have one, Weeder. Diah is gone. I'll show you the pictures from the incident... & I'll let you figure out the story for yourselves:

Anyways...

Let's see... Kyle has been coming over a lot more. He's so fun to hang out with... especially on Hairbrush Karaoke nights.

My roommates & I were almost all together for dinner one night! I missed us being together so I volunteered to make dinner for the apartment. Everyone stayed, but Nance had a recital to go to or something, I can't remember. We missed her ]:

Hahaa, I dunno why I'm grabbing my shirt? But yeah, this was right before making the meal.

The ingredients...

Some of the finished product... Haha.

Shadie & Mel playing around with chopsticks. Haha, they're so cute.
Lastly, my roommates--minus Nancy.
Yeah, it was fun eating dinner together!

Yeah, so a lot of other really spontaneous things have been happening around Andy Six, but I think the superior event would have to be this:Or this...Maybe this?
Naw, actually... it's this.
SINGLE LADIES?

No Fear in Love.

"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made in perfect love. We love him because he first loved us." --1 John 4:18-19.

Love it.

Christmas

Hello everyone! I hope everyone had an amazing Christmas! I know I did [:

I got to spend it with my family out here in Saratoga Springs. It was so much fun--and there was so much food. Here's our little family get together in like, four minutes. Enjoy & Happy Holidays [:

Snow in Happy Valley

My family is definitely in store for a white Christmas this year. Actually, a white Christmas is guaranteed every year in Utah. I used to love snow when I lived at the beach, & I was so excited to see massive amounts of it my first winter out here in the mountains... but honestly, I'm sick of it now, haha. But hey, it is pretty nice--that mountains are the best part.

Today, my mom, brother, & I went outside to shovel the driveway & sidewalk. My hands were freezing! I thought they were going to fall off, haha.

Shoveling can get really tiring; here's my brother relaxing in a pile of snow.

I joined him after a while.
Haha, and another video...

"When everything feels like the movies, yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive."

You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
'Cause you're all I want, you're all I need, you're everything...

Everyone deserves to feel loved. A goodmorning note is the perfect way to remind your special someone how much you care. [:
