Monday!

Hey guys!

Just a minute for a quick update! Hope you are doing well and had a great weekend!

Yesterday, my sister and I left to go and visit some family and will be gone for about 12 days! We are very excited and had a great trip yesterday!

I will try and update throughout the next week or so and of course I will have tons of pictures!!! :)

(So sorry to be behind on reading so many of your blogs...don't worry I will catch up!!!)

May you have a fabulous day and walk in the freedom of the Savior!

Enjoying Summer!

Hello Friends and Family!

I know it has been forever since I have posted but it has a CRAZY last couple of weeks. Last week, I worked 64 hours in 5 days and moved the weekend before. So this first part of summer has started out busy but I am hoping to have some time to catch up in the next couple of days!

Hope things are well with you! :)

Time to Celebrate!

Tonight was a night of celebration! The end of the semester has come and this is something to celebrate!!!! My roommate, Stefanie is also graduating so we celebrated that as well! We went to this place here.

It was delicious and so much fun! It definately feels weird not having to study or anything any more! So now it is offical, I took my last final of my college career today! Woo hoo! This is a great feeling and I am really happy! :)

Before we went to eat tonight!

Stefanie! :)

Me and Stefanie after dinner! :)

Hope you had a wonderful day! :)

The March at Midnight!

A couple of weeks ago, we had Midnight March at UMHB. Midnight March is for SENIORS and it is a time where senior give candles to special people in their lives and light the candles at midnight while singing our SENIOR song "Up with the Purple!" I got to wear my graduation gown and it was such a special and fun night! :)

I love traditions and this one is close to my favorite!

A "LOVEly" Shower

Saturday, I went to one of my very good friends, Ashley's bridal shower! It was in Lampases, about an hour away and such a sweet and beautiful shower! I love all things about weddings and it is so fun when friends get married!

I packed/moved all morning so it was fun to take a break and have some fun with friends! The shower was just great! I am so glad I went! A few weeks ago, I helped throw Ashley a shower as well!

{Side note: I have noticed now that I have a lot of friends getting married....that you get lots of great stuff at showers!!! WOW!}

Me and Ashley {the bride to be!!!}!

(this isn't a great picture of my dress but it is one of Ashley's wedding colors! We love the same colors!!}

Guest book table

This was such a cute idea! It is a 'towel' cake! And Ashley got to keep the towels after the shower!

The base {bottom two} is a bath towel, the middle is a hand towel and the top is a wash cloth!

So Bed, Bath and Beyond's gift wrapping colors are purple this season!

{LOVE IT! For those of you that don't know, my favorite color is purple especially the shade of the box above!}

I loved this stacked tray! Great for parties and such!

Her mom gave her this frame with their engagement pictures in it!

So sweet and such a great idea!!!

all kinds of fun kitchen gadgets!

The present I gave Ashley!

to hang out the wall

The candle and wall hanging I got her!
{I also got her a metal Cross with a heart in the center, but somehow didn't get a picture of that!}

LOVED the teapot she got! :)

And I just love seeing signs for UMHB! It makes me very happy!

{Don't worry...I was at a red light so I snapped the picture then!}

Hope you had a great weekend!

Just a tad Late!

I should have posted this on Friday but I have been busy packing and moving out of my apartment! {For the record, moving might be one of my least favorite things to do ever!!!}

Happy Birthday to my cousin DEVIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Devin and Avery

{Avery birthday was April 28th!}

Hope you are having a great weekend!

I will post pictures from yesterday soon! :)
