The Greatest Boyfriend Ever :)

So Bradley told me he has been searching and searching for good daises to get me because those are my favorite flowers. He said the Halloween ones were ugly and the Thanksgiving ones were weird, but these Christmas ones are perfect! I love them so much! He is basically the greatest ever :)







Yea, I caught a good one :)

BYU v. UTAH and THE EYE!!

So I know this is late, but I forgot I had these pics on my camera. My dear brother Jeffrey was able to get tickets to the byu v. utah football game for me bradley, tommy (my brother) and tommy's friend. We had a lot of fun, even though we lost horribly. blah. here are some pics from the game! Scroll down to see my greatest new battle scar

Bradley and I at Halftime.

Bradley and I cheering on BYU! This is what I get when I ask him to take a "normal" picture with me haha.

Tommy and his friend Josh.

Halftime show.

As Bradley would put it, I got to play basketball with "the big boys" tonight. Despite the fact that I was the biggest person there besides Bradley, I still managed to slightly injure myself. I decided that I am a walking magnet for odd injuries. First my floating rib, then my retardo back, and now I get a chunk of my face taken off. What's next? I don't even want to list an idea because with my luck, it would come true. Luckily I'm pretty tough (right mom?) so I can handle this sort of stuff haha. As if I don't get beat up in practice enough everyday with girls who have got 20+ pounds on me digging their elbows into my already feeble ribcage. mmm what the life I lead! :)


What a nice chunk of eye just gone right there! Fabulous. You should have seen the other guy though. It was a sad story. I was breakin his ankles all night! And for those of you not too familiar with athletic jargon, try as they might (cough, Erin, cough), I do love you, and will explain! As urban dictionary defines, breaking ankles is defined as this:

break ankles
	Basketball ...making such a good offensive move that the defender falls and breaks an ankle Coach: "Let's break ankles in the game tonight!"

:) Those boys don't know what hit em!

Thanksgiving Break in the Rupe!

This past Thanksgiving I drove up with my boyfriend Bradley to spend some time with his family in Rupert, Idaho!!! I know you all must be so proud I am dating a good ol' Idaho boy! (hold applause) We had an amazing time, just chillin,eating tons of food, sleeping in and hanging out with the family.

Here we are on Thanksgiving Day!

This is us about to take a ride on his four wheeler! My very first time EVER driving one. I was scared out of my mind because of horror stories I have heard of people and crazy injuries...and we ALL know how Rosie would feel if I hurt myself again! (Love you mom :)!)Don't worry, we were very careful.

Don't I look like a natural? :) It was FREEZING COLD!!

My turn driving...we truly had a blast! :)

On Saturday after thanksgiving, I went with Bradley and his family to their church building in Acequia? Or something...haha. There they had the annual Jurgensmeier Family Christmas party! Woo WOo! It was a good time getting know his family and just playing some games.

One of the games involved groups of four blowing up balloons and putting them in pantyhose to make reindeer antlers. Our antlers (and some sweet moves by Bradley) sealed the win for us, along with some candy!

Me with the cutest reindeer there :) (Don't be embarassed Bradley ;))

All in all it was an awesome trip! Sorry I couldn't come up to Boise to see a lot of you guys, but hopefully I will see you all soon at Jessica's wedding. Yay! I cannot wait to go back to Virginia at Christmas and show Bradley my neck of the woods!

Formal Dinner Date

This past weekend, Bradley's ward planned a formal dinner date for everyone to get matched up with someone else from the ward. However, for those with significant others, (aka Bradley and Marianne) we were signed up separately for the other people. (as to not confuse some cute girl in Brads ward that she might have a chance at snagging him- haha!) We ate in the Sky Room, and it was kinda a downer, but sometimes its just fun to get dressed up!

A Full Family Weekend!

What a weekend it was!! Momma Bell popped into Provo on Wednesday evening for my very first game of the season, and to meet a certain boy i like of course (Bradley) :). After what seemed like an eternity without them, we met up with our favorite friends from Virginia, Erin, Nathan and the kids!!! Boy do i miss sunday dinners and hangouts with them. Then, Cousin Jessica came with uncle ray on friday afternoon was well. We had a yummy lunch at Cafe Rio then went to the mall for a little bit ( um, who doesn't need to go shopping when a momma is in town? :)
Mom and Aly Hota

Me and Kenna Jolie!

Mom, Bradley and I met up with Jessica and Uncle Ray for the Football fireside on friday night where we got to listen to jeff speak. Woo! After that we enjoyed a lovely dinner at Red Robin! MMM!!
Lets see...on saturday, everybody went to the football game. I only got to stop by for about a half hour because I had a game that night too! We played Dixie St. and kicked their trash by about 30 pts. I even got some solid PT! Four mins??? haha. It was fun to have such a large fan club at the game. After that we all went to olive garden and sat there talking and just having fun for a few hours!
Sunday was the greatest day for me! We went up to Park City and had dinner and spent time with the kids! And I truly enjoyed letting my mom, Nathan and Erin get to know Bradley. (I need their input of course! Thumbs up guys???) Here are some pics of us in Park City just playin around!
Bradley and I :)

Jeffy with Crazy Kohen and Kennedy!


I'm sorry but i had to add this! We captured Erin's face in the most priceless expression. Love it! and Erin, you are just our size :) hahaha

Happy Halloween!

So Halloween has come and gone. I went to a dance party with some friends and had a great night! I didn't take a lot of pics but I got a few cute ones. I hope you guys like my outfit!!


This is my roommate Britten and I. I am the Sun! haha :)



Bradley and I...he makes a good retro basketball player...yeah? haha. I thought together we kind of make the Miami Heat...basketball team, the sun...yea!

All in all, it was a great night! :)

..I previously forgot to add that it was Bradley who actually created my sun ray headband for me. What a stud!! :)

Britten's Birthday and Homecoming Parade

This past week was my roomie and good friend Britten's birthday. We had a nice party at her friends house. I made her this cool picture board with help from Shayna :)








It was also Homecoming Week here at BYU, which was kinda exciting. The basketball team was a part of the student athlete float..woo! Too bad it was FREEZING COLD. It was snowing when we got there. It was fun though because we got these little balls to throw out to people and the kids loved it. The best part was one of the girls aunts made all these funny hats and we got to wear them. we looked legit!





We can be goofy, but we always have a good time! What a fun weekend.

The Reveal

I know that many of you have heard from my loving mother, cousin or brother that I am seeing someone new. Yes, it is in fact true. (hold your applause) For your viewing pleasure ( and at the request of my mother), here is a picture of me and Mr. Bradley Jurgensmeier. Enjoy! haha

America's next top Model???

For basketball we have to take all these cool pictures to make posters and calendars and what not. However, this year, they decided to mix it up a little bit. They wanted to show that the basketball team is not only legit, but super cute and hott too! So we had an America's Next Top Model-esq photo shoot.


We all had to wear black tops, dark jeans and high heels. It was so fun! I don't have a really good picture of all of us yet, but I will put it up when I get one. This was the group I shot with. I promise I look cooler in other pictures but these were just some our coaches took with someones digital camera

Sarah's 18th Birthday!!

So my best friend Sarah just turned 18 last saturday and we had a really fun party. We went to dinner then dancing on friday night and stayed up watching movies and eating junk food, as all good girl parties consist of. Then we spent the night out on the top balcony of liberty square and it was super fun! On saturday for Sarah's REAL birthday, we took a big group of friends and we floated down the provo river on tubes. It was really fun, even though I got flipped over into freezing cold water! haha. Provo is definitely fun in the summer :)

All of our best Virginia friends! Pete, Sarah, me and Kenton. My favorite people :)

Where are we going?? Sarah doesn't know! We were actually crashing some dance at the wilk.

Dancing the night away with my friend Michelle! We know how to get down.

We all love birthdays! haha. What a crazy night.

Happy Birthday Sarah Terry!!! :)

Marianne and Sarah or....Belle and Snow White, Disney Princesses!

We all got sweet tats on our arms in celebration of Sarahs birthday. Look at those guns!

Waking up on the balcony the morning after. What an awesome party!

On the way to Vivienne Park. We had to squeeze the tubes and all the people in the car. However, Sarah and I had plenty of room up front.

Getting ready to float down the Provo River! It was definitely so much fun. Everyone should float down the river if they visit Provo.

Hope you had a great birthday Sarah!!

Family Reunion

So I know these are a little bit late...but these are some of my favorite pictures from the family reunion. I miss everyone already! I wish I could come back to Boise and hang out with everyone but its getting back in shape for me...yay.
