What It Means to Be A Cougar

I just like the part where it says "If you're going to be a cougar, you're gonna have to shave off that facial hair." HA!

Exotic

I really love unique animals so I thought I would make a list of all the pets I would like to one day have.

1. A Duck

2. Slow Loris

3. Hedgehog

4. Fennec Fox

5. Alpaca

6. Miniature Pig

HALLOWEEN!

Yes, I start planning my Halloween costume months in advance.
I've narrowed it down to a few options and I would like your help voting.

1. Minion - Despicable Me
Will everyone get this?

2. Kat Von D. - L.A. Ink
I just think it would be cool to draw all over myself and wear leather!

3. Kissing Booth

I don't have a picture, but I would wear all black, red lipstick and create some sort of box that I would wear???

Help me out!

Open 24 Hours A Day

I've been having trouble sleeping lately (which I found out runs in my family!) so yesterday at 1:30 am I was wide awake. So I decided to make hot spinach and artichoke dip. Off to Smith's I went. I discovered, grocery shopping after midnight is AWESOME! Here's why:

1. Rockstar parking (because the lot is empty)
2. It's quiet and not crowded inside the store -- I had nice, peaceful, thinking time
3. No lines at checkout
4. They were stocking groceries so I had everything fresh!

Pretty much, I will do all my shopping at 1:30 am from now on....

I bleed Blue and White!

Well actually it was more a purplish/redish/blue color.
I gave blood the other day. AND I didn't pass out...but the girl next to me sure did. Then she started crying. It was all very eventful. I like giving blood: it's quick, painless, you save lives, and the best part is the free cookies and juice!!

Also, when it's hot outside I don't like my long hair. It's annoying and sticky. Plus broadcast requires short hair so I hacked out 3.5 inches this weekend!

To My Little Man

Dear Gavin,

Happy Birthday! Today you are 3 years old. I can't believe you are growing up so fast. It feels like only yesterday when we were teaching you to walk...bribing you with Reese's Pieces :)
I want to say that to me and our family, you are the world. I have never met anything so precious. You are a special little boy born into a family who adores you. I want nothing but the absolute best for you. You are unique and will develop talents given to only you to further the gospel. You will bring light, peace, and compassion to many people. Never forget how much I love you. I would do anything for you, anything. I will always be here for you.
I Love You!

*That's my dad and I's song!
It's been a while! My Mom came to visit me in Provo a couple of weeks ago (still waiting for those pictures mom..) and then my dad just recently came up! It was amazing.

My dad came up to campus while the Women's Conference was going on. Therefore Provo was swarming with ladies! BYU was crazy crowded but I ended up getting some cool free stuff.
We went to the Carl Bloch exhibit and it was phenomenal.
The bookstore had tons of authors, painters, and singers for the conference and I actually picked up two free paintings: one from Greg Olsen and Liz Lemon

Liz Lemon signed it for me too!

Greg Olsen's. He was at lunch and unable to sign it :(

My dad also bought me a new sweatshirt!

Then on Friday my dad and I went to temple square, Deseret, and had dinner at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. It was amazing and so beautiful!

I'm so glad my dad got to come visit. We had so much fun! I LOVE YOU DAD!
