to much fun for my own good

So pretty much my weekend=no sleep. Yup that's right pretty much none. Spencer, Justin, Landon, and Jesse came up from Mesa this weekend! SO fun! Justin, Spencer, and Ryan are going to start school here in the January so they were up here looking for housing and we of course showed them what BYU is all about haha! On Friday we went out to dinner at Bajio's! yum! Then took them to Provo's famous ice cream place Sammy's. (they basically take a whole piece of pie, put it in ice cream, and mix it up=heaven!) Then headed off to a Vegas party out in Lindon. It was SO amazing! They had everything! (except alcohol and real gambling) I learned how to play roulette which was to much fun! That night I spent the night at Cortney and Brandi's and finally got to be around four in the morning haha! The next night We all went to see Humor U (BYU's stand up comedy). It was pretty funny! Then went out for ice cream and a movie and once again feel asleep on Cortney's couch. Shocker I know haha! On Sunday when I finally got back to AG I took a seriously needed five hour nap! It was heaven! Basically it was a crazy event filled weekend with to much fun and not near enough sleep haha

IFT

For those of you who don't know what IFT is (probably everyone) it stands for the coolest organization to ever grace this planet. Still don't know?
The Institute of Food Technologists. Basically if you are a food scientist you are a member of this organization. This past week in Salt Lake they have a conference for their candy division. And it was AMAZING! Heather and I drove out to Salt Lake (got completely lost) and just made it to the conference on time. The food was DELICIOUS (shocking I know...) and I met some amazing people. We had to mix and sit with people from the conference instead of other students and Heather and I being awesome at picking random seats sat with the owner of Maxfields and Sweets! SOOOOO COOL! Tey told us all about their work and what they do. I heart food science! They then had a presentation about the different gums (not the gums you eat but food additive gums like xanthan gum, locust bean gum and carrageenan gum). Coolest presentation EVER! Then after Heather and I went and walked around temple square until nine when they closed. Motab was even practicing so we got to hear a few songs by them! SOOOOO cool! Overall, I think the best part was I got to dress up all business like. With the nice black pants and then nice button up shirt. I will post a picture later when I finally get it from Heather. BEST NIGHT EVER!

HALLOWEEEEEEEEEEN

This year for halloween all my roommates and I dressed as different animals! It was CRAZY fun! We just hit up a bunch of different parties all over campus and went out to dinner and had a grand ole time! I heart halloween :)

Fall. I think?

Up at Aspen Grove we keep trying to celebrate fall but we get rudely interrupted everytime I wake up and see out my window,
I just want to yell "REALLY UTAH, REALLY!!!!!!"
My most favorite thing about fall is when you get to crunch the leaves when you step on them and the snow kinda puts a damper on things. Literally.
A few days ago I made this for our lobby
So it would look like fall inside and winter outside. :)
Also I re-vinyled my laptop! It turned out pretty cute if I do say so myself :)
My lovely older sister made it for me :) Love you sis!!!
Also, this is the background on my laptop
It makes me smile every time i minimize. I'm pretty sure I have the cutest nephew EVER!
