I'M FINALLY AN AUNT!

Introducing Brigdon Chase Judkins born august  28, 2010. 7 lbs 13 oz :)

 I am so totally in love with him already!!!!!!!!

dear aspen grove

family camp ends this week.

sad.

depressing.

heart breaking.

these are all words that I would use to describe the way I'm feeling right now. My roommate Natalie is already gone chillin with her familia in michigan. I feel so deserted. Auri is also moved on to bigger and better things working on campus already again. Luckily I still have Heather to keep me company.

Now that family camp is coming to an end I will no longer get to play with four year olds all day. I have decided that they are my absolute favorite age of all time. They are hilarious! They say the funniest things and they are still young enough that they automatically just love you and want to hold your hand but they are old enough to go the the bathroom all by themselves which I am very very grateful for because that means no diapers! I love love love that about four year olds. 

there are SO many things that I will miss about aspen grove when I leave...

1. playing with these cuties all day

aren't they so so CUTE!

2. working at aspen follies

this is Heather and I working at Aspen follies with our earth ball. 

yes it is taller than me 

yes children do get run over by it

yes it is HILARIOUS

3. getting to look at this all day. please stay away snow. i do not like you.

oh yeah. be jealous.

5. doing an impromptu dance each week at the closing show! love love love!

a few random thoughts...

they just started training me in the kitchen so i can work there during fall and winter semesters while I go to school.  It's not as fun as working with four years olds or as entertaining but thats to be expected. I have already made a lot of mistakes and some take me hours to clean up. Like overflowing a pot while making 5 gallons of alfredo sauce. Two hours later it was finally clean. blah. here is me workin the apron

oh yeah.

also I went to st george last weekend and la la loved it! So fun! I got to hang with my grandma which was just amazing and then a few of my friends came and stayed the night! We had a BLAST! In the car on the way down Heather and I made these beauties 

completely out of tootsie rolls! oh yeah!

lastly, I la la la LOVE these people and miss them already :(

on my right is auri-safria (auri), the middle is snell (me), my left is fegger (heather), behind her is nat (natalie) and right behing me is jen (jena). these girls were my besties at camp! good thing we all go to byu and get to play ALL the time :)

smiles :) 

lastly, this summer I made this cup

and now I REALLY want soup so that i can use it haha

marci's baby shower!

Last weekend my older sister had her baby shower for my future nephew! I am SO SO SO excited to FINALLY be an aunt! Sadly, I couldn't make it to the shower so Dana was nice enough to bring along her computer so that I could skype during it :)

I even got to watch her open most of her presents

and I shipped my present for my sister to my bestie Cortney who brought it to the shower for me :)

I got him a little BYU shirt and these cute argyle BYU socks! Got to start them young :)

why don't we live in the 80's?

Every week on Thursday we have a family dance and we decided to dress up 80's style for this last weeks!

yeah. we are pretty cool.

some times I wonder why they let us play with little kids all day and then i look at pictures like this.

cleaning day

every friday after all the guests leave we clean camp and today the family that was staying where we cleaned was taking about a million and a half years to leave so we chatted it up while we waited and saw this...

we felt a little awkward so we gave them a some privacy.

yes. my life does rock.

yes. this is a picture of elder holland.
yes. i did sit in the front row when he gave the most amazing fireside.
yes. he looked me in the eye at random times giving his talk.
yes. i did shake his hand and he told me that he loves me.
and yes. my life is awesome.

ps. a few days ago the sky looked like this

it was a little pink and it made me home sick like crazy when the sky looks like this almost every night... i heart you arizona
