Pass the whipped cream, please

For those of you that don't know, I got a job a while back nannying for The Brousseau Family 4.5 miles away from where I live. They have 4 children:
Addison is 9 and loves to dance. if you asked her if she cleaned her room she says "i think so" then if you say that you are going to go check she says "wait i should go check first.
Jackson is 5 and loves to play basketball and is actually very good at it. He does small things... like pinch his brother to make gray mad.
Grayson is 4 and probably the hardest. He is very moody. If he doesnt get his way over the tiniest thing then he throws a crazy fit. He is usually good though. He is more of an outright kid... if his Jacks makes him mad he just beats him up. (they are the same size if not gray being a little bigger)
Emerson is 9 months old and is so cute. She likes to cuddle and climb the stairs... which she is not allowed to do. She is teething right now so she cries a lot but thats to be expected of a baby i guess.

The kids are really good. they all have their little quarks but generally they are happy and fun to be with. I am so grateful for this job. It really is a blessing. The family is awesome... kinda reminds me of Dawn's actaully. Katie (the mom) is the 5th of 10 so her and i have a lot in common and grew up in basically the same family envirnment. and Matt (the dad) is a social butterfly, super nice and 6'8".



I took the kids to the park yesterday for a picnic. It was such a beautiful day outside.



And i had to sell my car. I loved my car so much. I will miss it alot. I sold if for $200. i probably could have gotten a little more but i am impatient and wanted it gone. Mom and dad raced the two olds up to utah last weekend to drop the red one off for me. But if any of you were wondering where i was going to put my collection of ducks in the new car here is it! they really like it there.

its just hair right?

For... forever.... I have wanted to cut my hair super short. I would see girls that had short hair and I would think that they were so brave. To me short hair has always been 'cute' and 'spunky' and long hair was 'beautiful' and glamorous'. I am not spunky so I stuck with the long hair... and really I cant accomplish my life time goal of being a vitoria secret model with short hair. ;)
Monday night I got the scissors out, handed them to andrea, and said "do it now else i never will" Andrea had never cut hair, Brittney either. They are to thank for my new do. They cut all the length off and I did the layering. I think that for a quick bathroom job before FHE it turned our fantastic.

wedding, road trips, and more!

I've lived in provo now for a month and a half and I've done so much. Here is a little of the fun!



Kortney, Me, Andrea, Savanna, and Mati.
I love these girls so much! They are all such good examples to me!



One night this guy wanted Savanna to drive an hour to see him. Unfortunately Savanna doesnt have a car and I didnt want to drive mine so Andrea drove. We went to some natural hot springs in the middle of the snow and after decided to walk around this big.... ice scupture/trail thing. Hence the towels.



In the process of building the best fort ever! it consisted of two matresses, 2 couches, several sheets and blankets, and tons of pillows. We spent 2 nights in there together.



One Saturday morning Andrea randomly wanted to get away so Savanna, Andrea and I got in the car at 1 am that night and drove to Mesa. Andrea had not been there before and was really excited about seeing a cactus. We had to be back Tuesday night for Kortneys bridal party at 7:30 so we had quite the adventure on the way back. First at 8:30 or so I got pulled over Andrea and I both got warning (she didnt have proof of insurance yet) then we went to vegas because i had never been there before. We didnt have much time to spare so we RAN to the strip to go take a few pictures. When we left Savanna was driving and guess what... she got pulled over also. Unfortunately her police officer was not as kind as mine and gave her a ticket. We got back to provo at 7:10, with just enough time to change and head over the Chilli's



Elvis was nice enough to let us take a picture with him even though we couldn't tip him.



Gambling is dumb. We each wasted a whole dollar on the stupid machine... we didnt even know how to play we just kept pressing buttons. LAME!




Kortney Carter got married last weekend and I did her hair and make-up for her. This was a touch up before the reception.... her hair in the back was really matted.. ;)



Arent they adorable.

toilet paper is so embarrassing!

When someone askes me what my most embarrassing moment is it takes me a while to think of one. So either I dont get embarrassed that easily or I block those scaring memories from my thoughts. Personally, I think that it is the first.

Last night though was my #1 embarrassing moment of my life! I hope that I can soon block it from memory.

Earlier yesterday afternoon my friend Jordan invited me to go see his friend Nate Baldwin in his concert. Of course I said yes. As I was getting dressed later that evening I noticed that my blue bra kept showing a little on the left side. Let me explain something. My left boob is almost a whole cup size smaller than the right. So my bra is always a little higher on the left. I then came up with this brilliant idea to remedy the situation. stuff that side of my bra so that it sits a little lower. No big deal right? WRONG!!!

At 8 we all went to the concert and it was AWESOME! I really liked the bands. The first 3 were more indy rock which is my favorite style and the last, the one we went to see, was more rock but even then it was great. Utah has talent for sure

On our way back to the apartment complex we were kinda acting a little crazy. running around and what not. It was fun. I left everyone at my door and proceeded to go inside. I walked around the apartment for a when I felt something on my chest..... I looked down and saw the most horrifying sight! the toilet paper that I used to even out my bra had moved to the very middle of my shirt sticking WAY out.

I cant even describe my feeling. I will say this much I dont think that I will ever be able to face those people ever again. Who knows how long it was like that! Yep I am staying in my apt for the rest of my life. Never to see the light of day again.

THE END!

EAC Fall 2009



I have been at Ea since fall 2008. I have enjoyed my time there for the most part. I have lived with several different girls. Some messy, some ridiculous, some selfish, some that I really liked. I met some nice guys there but the one that i stuck with for the most part was Alex. He is funny, smart, loves his family, loves to cook (and is good at it), he loves to serve people, he is kind, he has a testimony, he tries hard to do whats right,... he's amazing. He treats me so well. I know that sometimes i complain about him and that sometimes we fight but I love him. I learned a few things. Not going to blog about that tho. :)

I am out of that place now though. Next week i am moving to Provo utah. Where it is snowing right now. I am nervous about that. I've never driven in the snow before. I am Excited. We'll see how that goes.

Finals Stress Reliever.



The weekend before finals the school always has a finals stress reliever where they rent a bunch of those big blow up things for a few hours and all the college students get to go play on them. Ashley and I had a blast! I couldn't pull myself off the velcro thing and I have scabbs on my elbows from getting burned on the slide. Thanks for going with my Ash! you're awesome!!!!

May I just vent for a little?

today is one of those days where I simply am annoyed with everything.
1. Roommates suck. At least the ones that I have had to live with. I am tired of selfish girls that dont care about anyone but themselves. They dont clean up after themselves. They expect you to share your clothes and pretty much everything else (ie: shampoo, razor, girl stuff... ect) with them, even if you tell them its not okey. They dont respect your stuff and they are so irresponsible its RIDICULOUS! I want to live with FRIENDS is that too much to ask. Out of the 8 roommates that I have had I can only say that I really feel like Ashley is a friend and that really happened more after she moved out!
2. I want friends. am tired of being alone. Now I know that I should just go force myself into a group but that isnt my personality. I want people to want me. It's always been if Cristal is here thats cool and if she's not thats cool too. I feel like whenever I try and and get into a group the group suddenly stops hanging out with each other. Take for instance this last semester. The girls that I moved in with were all friends before i moved in. They hung out all the time. Had a "group". a few weeks after i moved in... no more group. They dont even hang out anymore and on those off days that they do... i'm not included. (that does not include boys who dont want to be friends but just want to hang out so that we can make out)
3. English is my nightmare. Finals are this week and tomorrow morning is english. We have to right a rheotrical analysis which I HATE (yeah that much). They are so freaking hard. I just want to be done with that.
4. Thatcher sucks and so does everyone that is here. for real. you have no idea how excited that i am to not be coming back here.
5. single is what i want to be. Do i really need more reason than that. I dont want to be single so i can go play with tons of other guys. I dont want to be single because i dont like you anymore. I JUST DONT WANT TO BE IN A RELATIONSHIP. why guys cant understand that I DONT KNOW! and its irritating when they want me to tell them over and over and over again why i wont be their girlfriend. I.AM.NOT.READY.TO.GET.MARRIED. if that is what you want---- move on.


I know that i am not perfect. That sometimes I am selfish and dont clean up after myself. i am in no way saying that my life is horrible. Because it is NOT. I have many opportunites and good things going on. But i can be bothered. i need to go study for that final. BLAH!!!!!
