Things I Won't Miss

So, lately I am rather contemplative about finishing school as I walk around campus.
And these are
things I won't miss about Utah State
  • Zombies vs Aliens
  • Razor scooters that all the freshman boys ride around
  • bitter cold wind hitting my face in the morning
  • parking 15 minutes away from campus
  • the drive from my house to Logan every day
  • Space Exploration

Remember Valentine's Day?

I am way behind but I have to share with the blog world my wonderful Valentine's Day with my amazing hubby.
It started with school . . . I had a Stats Midterm that I couldn't miss. And . . . add it to the record books I got a 94%! Who knew I had any math skills? but after that I left to head home to primp and pack to leave for Salt Lake. We were able to leave about 2. Stopped at the one and only Smith & Edwards on the way down. We drove to our hotel from there, Little America and dropped off our stuff. The Little America was such a pretty hotel, very vintage. I would so recommend it!
We were able to jump on the Trax (for free) and head over to the Gateway for dinner at Applebees. We shared my new favorite dessert a Blondie! Also recommending that!
The concert was sooo great! I am definitely a concert girl. Thompson Square & Darius Rucker opened and they were great! Thomson Square was amazingly talented! Both Dalan & I loved them! Overall, it was a great night & I think that I am going to ask for concert tickets for Christmas for the rest of my life! :)

This Week.

There have been so many things this week that I want to share! I finally have time to share them!
Let's back up to last week . . . Friday night Dalan and I went to Dave Stamey's concert over in Hyrum. Dalan introduced me to Dave Stamey's music awhile ago and we love him! It was such a fun concert (listen to a song of his here). All of the of entertainers were great!
On Saturday, Kelsey & I headed up to Beaver with our awesome Special Olympic Snowshoeing team! They all did awesome! I was even in the relay team . . . we got a Bronze metal! It was also FREEZING cold, but so worth it. If you are ever looking to volunteer Special Olympics is the place to go!

Sunday we spent the day in Salt Lake as our sweet little niece was blessed. I love baby blessings. They bring such a great spirit to everyone's hearts. It was fun to spend time with everyone together. We came home and soon later my Mom, Carter & Josie were here to visit and to go to Josie's doctor's appointment. I was so glad that I was able to make party cookies with Josie and hang out for the little time that we had to share.

From this point on the days blur together. As a college student, wife, daughter, sister, blah blah blah, so many things going on . . . What does a girl do when she needs to take a shower but there is no time to because she also has to study?

She writes everything she knows onto the shower walls. . .
That is also how you know that the breaking point is very, very near. The next day was so strange. There were so many great things about the day & there were plenty of awful things as well. There was no in-between. First off, I got myself stuck in the snow, in my own drive-way . . . it took 40 minutes for my Brother-in-law to get me out. Thank goodness he came driving up right in time to rescue me! As I finally started off to school on my 45 minute drive, 40 minutes late, I wondered if I would be able to make it to my quiz in time. P.S. I really really needed to get there in time! I was 15 minutes late to class, and I took the quiz in the remaining 5 minutes left of class! My pencil was flying! ha ha I seriously don't know how that happened. Angels were on my side.

I went throughout the crazy day. Took my test, came back to my car to find that our friends the Logan parking cops had come to visit.

Not once . . . but twice. Lovely.

That was about how the day was. It was so terribly wrong, but somehow the pieces fit together very, very well. Don't forget to pray :)

I spent the whole night and early morning studying for my test at 9:00 and I am so grateful that I can feel more relaxed today. I am catching up on the Bachelor, Blogging and most importantly NOT studying. Spring Break can't come soon enough and graduating can't either.
7 more weeks everyone!
