Time to Catch Up!

Ok, I have a little bit of down time, so I will try to squeeze in as much as possible. Before the craziness of school started, I had the best weekend trip. We went to Colorado, where one of my friends has a private lake. Her family has this little lake that we got to spend the weekend on. It was a blast! We did a lot of tubing, wake boarding and just had such a great time! We left Thursday night (9:30 pm) after my friend's intramural softball game (which luckily they won or we would've been made we couldn't leave earlier), and made our way to Breckenridge, Colorado. We got there at about 4:30 am, and after staying up the entire drive there plus, staying up chatting and watching the sun rise, we finally crashed at about 7 a.m. Then, woke up at 8:30 am, got ready for the day, and headed to Denver. We got to the lake around noon, and had a BLAST. We did a lot of tubing, and some wake boarding (Yes, I learned to wake board and did pretty good). It was such a fun weekend! It was exactly what I needed. We got back Sunday night, and couldn’t stop talking about how much fun we had. We spent the entire Sunday evening looking at all the pictures from the trip and laughing about everything that happened. 

We're kinda crazy.

Pro-Wake Boarder? Yeah, duh.

Look, Mom, no hands :)

After that trip, things got pretty crazy and pretty busy very fast. My summer roommate Nicole got married, and we were able to go to her wedding lunch and reception which was so much fun. Such a cool story – my friend Nicole was baptized a little over a year ago, and now is sealed in the temple. She is such an amazing girl with such a strong testimony. I learned a lot from her this summer.  

The weekend after that, Mom and Dad came into town bringing Bucky to BYU. We got to spend quite a bit of time together, and even hiked Y mountain. It was so great to spend time with Mom and Dad while they were here. I loved it. It's my third year at BYU, and I finally got a picture in front of the BYU sign. Haha, whoops!

Since school has started, it's been busy, busy, busy! I am back to working part time, only 20 hours a week, but it still has me worn out by the end of the day after classes and what not. I'm loving my classes though. They keep me really busy, but they are very interesting.
I've also stayed busy watching Bucky on the BYU Hockey team this year. It's been a lot of fun. I sure do miss hockey, so it's a lot of fun watching Bucky play. 

 We've also been able to see Dawna, Justin and Ashley quite a few times this year already. It's been so fun. I love that we are all so close. Families are forever :)

 Bucky and I went to the Brad Paisley concert towards the end of September. So much fun! It was a great show. Easton Corbin, Steel Magnolia, Justin Moore, Darius Rucker, and then, my man, Brad Paisley. So great!

 I feel like I've done a pretty good "recap" of the past couple months. Time really does fly. And, I think I am going to take Kendra's advice, and maybe print this off and put it in my journal :). Haha!
Life is good! Love, love, love! :)
