Halloween Party






After Jon and Kaylene moving to Texas, Brett and I feared our beloved Halloween party getaway was gone forever. But alas, April and Dave saved the day by hosting a fabulous Halloween party at April's parent's adorable family home in Midway.
We started the evening by decorating the founding fathers statue in the front yard so he looked appropriate for Halloween, then we ate pizza and other yummy treats, did a cake walk -I came in last place :( Followed by putting on our costumes, watching Ghost Busters and the boys golfed on the Wii.
Everyone's costumes were so great, Brett and I were lame and went as "serial killers". But at least we werent the biggest party poopers of the night. That award goes to Andrea and Jake; Andrea being "Pam" from the office and Jake wearing a Hawaiian shirt. Aaron went as a Mexican and Kim was a "Border Patrol Officer". Lastly, but certainly not least- April was "Punky Brewster" and the official winner of the night was Dave as "MR. T"
Well, we stayed over night but had to leave early in the morning to make it to Brett's parents farwell talks in their ward. THANK YOU Dave and April for hosting a fabulous party!!!

Deseret Towers





My beloved BYU is tearing down Deseret Towers, my first home here in S-hall. This summer they tore down two halls already and now they are preparing to tear down the rest. So I walked over on my way to the bookstore (where I got a new dress :)and took pictures to remember my first semester here at BYU.
Gosh, taking the pics reminded me of the many memories I have there. It was a ton of fun and that is when I fell in love with this campus. I loved my professors, classes, the social life and everything BYU has to offer. However, I also remember being so homesick and also missing my best friend Brett, who had just left on his mission. As much as I miss being a student, Im glad Brett is back, that we are married and that I graduated.
So goodbye my first dorm, first college experience and the BYU tradition of "DT".
