Missouri!

Okay, okay. I've had these pictures save on here FOREVER but havent just gotten around to writing about Missouri, but now im going to so here I go!

First off, Lily was SO cute! She turned 1 a couple of weeks ago, and is just walking around and chatting up a storm. She loves to point at everything, and especially at things she is not supposed to mess with. hahaha

So, the land of Missouri is very interesting. It is very flat but has lots of hills so it kind of makes up for the lack of mountains. It rained alot (very randomly sometimes) but otherwise it wa a really awesome place to visit. Oh and by the way, there were Amish people that would just drive their buggies down the sides of the roads!
Image
Also there were like a million of these little 'po-dunk' towns that we drove through, and lived in for a week. Though they are fun and old-timey, there is nothing to do in them besides go to antique shops and eat! hahah but its all good!
Image
So here is me and em in our retal car (that got awesome gas mileage by the way). I was the official navigator and only messed up once :( , but that was on the return trip to the airport and it was so simple it was confusing...ha.
Image
And Em was an awesome driver! I wasnt allowed to drive the car since im not 21 (poo) so she had to drive the whole time, but did awesome!
Image
And now as I part, I leave you with a video of Lily saying the two things that she learned while we were there. A Banana is now "nana" and the doggy goes "woo woo" (in a barking kind of way :))

And She Lived Happily Ever After...Until Summer School That Is...

So the time has finally come! I am done with my freshman year of college! Huzzah! and my grades are coming in and looking pretty good!  but honestly im just excited to have time to actually do things besides school.  gosh!

well mom has been putting me to work though, we have been cleaning like mad to get the house ready for showing.  Its amazing how much trinkets and clutter we have collected over the years!  As I have been putting it, 'our house has been overweight and we have just been helping it shed some pounds!"  So the next could pictures are of my room, and if anyone remembers how it looked before, its crazy tidy; it also looks a bit bare, but we are trying to make the house look like a model home, so the de-cluttering applies to the walls too.

So i lately i have met this girl in my ward who is so awesome!  she is like my new best friend down here!  so monday night we were both really bored so we decided to go teepee-ing!  and Jeff actually met her and is taking her out tonight so we did his truck, and he thought it was pretty funny...

Image
but thats kinda a bad picture...you should see the front of it! hahaha. here is us just after obtaining the goods:

1. really....im almost done with my finals, but they seem to just keep getting harder and harder! but hey im three down and one more to do...yes! just physics....*sigh* i guess i will just feel better when all the grades come in, all this waiting is not fun.
2. So boys.....uhhhhh....they are just very confusing....nuff said...
3. i need to make a list or something for the summer.  I dont want to be so bored but i do want to rest, so you have any suggestions for me please let me know!
So i guess my life isnt super super insane, but i promise, finals are taking more out of me than i anticipated, so i just dont wanna talk anymore about it.
But anyways....oh well im done for now. but just to emphasize my craziness...its snowing at my house! (well flowers anyways...)
