A Day with Cam

To preface this I must say that when I read blogs I enjoy less commentary and lots of pictures so be sure to expect that from me.

Cameron and I have been friends since the 7th grade. Recently it was his birthday so we decided to celebrate since I don't get to see him very often and he is going on his mission to Mexico in 17 days from today. (Crazy right?!) It was a Friday afternoon (September 30) so we went to lunch at Zupas.  We didn't really know what to do after but it was a beautiful fall day and so I put out the suggestion of driving the Alpine loop to see the leaves. (It was a good thing we did because it snowed this weekend...) It was still pretty green up there but it was one of the best days ever!

Timp here we come!

The tie I got him :)

Yay fall!

Mom, I didn't see any big horn sheep... Again...

Blue steel?

Book of Mormon time!

At the end of the loop I asked Cam to come over to our apartment and read the Book of Mormon to me in English/ Spanish since I have to read for half an hour every day and I needed to get some things done (washing dishes, sweeping, etc...). It was fun to have him practicing! He is going to do a great job as a missionary! Then we played Risk and Monopoly on his iPad and I lost both times but it was okay to lose to him. And then it was game time so we had to break the fellowship of the loop. The end!

Game Day: BYU vs UCF

So one weekend (Friday September 23 to be exact...) Aubrey, Brynna and Rachel drove back to Brynna's house in Colorado. Josh and Danissa went to an overnight thing and so there were a bunch of extra football game tickets floating around. Josh kindly offered to give me his ticket so that I could go since I don't have an All Sports Pass. Meredith and Jacob were both working so it ended up being Conner and I at the game. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that the game started at 6 so we didn't end up going until 7:30ish. It ended up being alright though, because we got to see all of the second half. Our seats were up in the top East bleachers as far South as you can go. After, we got some snacks at the Creamery and met up with Jacob and Meredith and watched Enchanted. It was a blast! (The pics are all from my phone so sorry about quality)

Check out that team spirit!

Go Cougars! (yes that is my mom's vintage sweater...)

It's another Cougar... 1st down!

Game time!

Our House

Welcome to our apartment! Since only Mom and Dad have visited, I thought I'd give you a sneak peak to what you will see when you do visit. I live here with Meredith, Aubrey, Danissa, Rachel and Brynna and posts about each of them will come eventually :) This post shows the main areas of our apartment and I will blog about Meredith and I's bedroom in the near future. We'll start the tour right outside the outside doors...

The Mailboxes (feel free to write...)

Coming down the hall

Front door- it says WELCOME

The sign wall

Our kitchen table

More signs and quote sheets

Living room area (yes, that is the Beatles poster I got)

Main front area

More signs

Bedroom Hallway

You might have noticed the signs all over our wall. My roommates picked those up at the "Welcome to Heritage" dance the Wednesday before I moved in and had stuck them all over that wall. They all say welcome but most have fallen off and are now sitting next to our fridge. We live in the first room on the right, Aubrey and Danissa live on the second right and Rachel and Brynna live straight ahead. Hope you enjoyed the tour!

The Unexplained Wheat Thin

This is extremely random but we had to move our couch away from the wall for a bit and we found this Wheat Thin stuck to the wall. No one knows how it got there or why it stuck to the wall... Pretty gross but I thought, "Hey, might as well blog about it!" If you can answer either of those questions, let me know.

Can you spot it?

Just how we found it

Mysteries of the universe...

Howard the Slug

So a lot of random people/things end up visiting our kitchen so this is your warning for future posts... Anyways... Howard the slug was found by Aubrey's boyfriend, Mike. Naturally, he was brought over and shown to us since Mike likes to visit often. Sadly, (but not really) Rachel poured salt on him and so they put him back outside. After that fact, I believe Mike found out that Howard was actually poisonous... I don't know what has happened but there was a dried out nastiness that looked like him on our steps the other day. Here are the pics from that encounter...

What a happy family!

Yuck...

Lunch time!

Game Day: BYU vs Utah

These are random pictures from the BYU vs Utah game :) I spent it with my parents because I don't have an All-Sports Pass and they do nice things for me, like my laundry (thanks Mom!). Plus I love chatting up what is happening with my Daddy! (who is the best Dad in the world by the way!) The large HD LED TV helps too... :)

Rah Rah Rah Rah Rah Rah!

The Beautiful TV

We are a Cougar Family!

Mom goin' trucker :)

INTENSE!!!

True Blue? Almost...
