Surgery

So after being home for a few weeks and having fun, I finally got my surgery and that set me back for good! Surgery sucked though guys. I felt so sick after. Finally i was able to go home after like three hours of waiting and Jake and my mommy have been caring for me. It has not been a fun ride though. I can't stand up on my own, i cant bend over, i can't pick anything up and i can't lay on my right side. Its pretty painful. But hopefully it will all work out for the best for next year playin bball. However, for right now, it just sucks.



Yes my stomach looks very odd right now! its really poochy and weird. I don't really have any control over it. so don't make fun! :)

Classic Skating

So we had a whole ward family home evening on Monday Night and we went CLASSIC SKATING. It was definately difficult because I haven't done it in forever. It was all i could do to just stay standing! We all had to get dressed up in funky mismismatched clothes or just funky skating outfits. It was really fun!! We went to D.I. and looked through everything until we found some pretty awesome outfits. They played all kinds of music and we just had fun dancing and skating and trying not to fall. Even though it happened on several occasions....needless to say everyone had a few bruises after it was all over. But still had a great time!

My Sweet Skating Outfit!


This is me and sarah when we first arrived!


Me and my Suitemates :)


A big group!



I definately think that i am going to do this when i come home! it was a fun night.

Girls Night

When you go to BYU, its ineviatable that you will have many girl nights. The other night we had a Girls Party on our floor lounge where we all brough in our mattresses and where funny pjs and danced around. Then we went to ihop at like one in the morning in our awesome pjs. ohhh what a night :)

It's the White Elephant time of year!

To start, i just thought that this was funny. My friends and i describe it as "Me in my Element" Fuzzy socks, basketball shorts and ramen noodles. thats how i show up to everything these days :)



So our floor decided to do a white elephant gift exchange in place of our sunday floor meeting. as you can probably guess, most everyone forgot. Furthermore, it being sunday, no one could dash to the dollar store to get a quick funny gift. So things were pretty interesting! We started off with some games. The first was someone would put a poster picture around their head and have twenty questions to guess what they were! my friend stephanie was the statue of liberty...she asked if she was a political figure and we figured technically yes. so of course she would get a disgusted look on her face and ask, AM I HILLARY CLINTON??? hahaha it was great!



Next, i of course decide to volunteer. Low and behold, i get the best face of them all...a toilet seat! Its what i get for being an active participant..



One of the best gifts was the real white elephant made out of paper towels and toilet paper! Man i wish i was creative...



I can't be modest here. I have to be truthful and say that my gift got the most laughs out of the whole night. I was in a rush to get something to wrap. What else could be funnier than a tampon wrapped in a big box? Man im good.




Here is our group for the White Elephant! They are most of the girls from my floor, probably only two outsiders. Our floor is bomb!

BYU vs. UTAH

So the BYU v Utah game was quite the exciting event. Even though we should've put them away in the third quarter, we always like to make the game exciting and figure out how to play in the last few mins. Props to the defense though! Here are some pics from the game.

Pete is now a Fully Invested COUGAR FAN! Way to choose the right :)
(his parents went to Utah)


During the game


Storming the field afterwards! Yes i was by myself! I pushed right through to the middle!



Sweet Pic of Brian Keele. It was just way fun :)


I wish my family could've come to the game because it was a blast! Maybe next year...

Family Metaphor

So for my introduction to family processes class i had to come up with a metaphor to describe my family. i could not use any photos to depict them, just think of ways that they could be represented in an abstract sense. it took me forever to think of something, but this is my final product. What do ya think?

The first one is the whole thing, while the second and third are side views. So can you figure it out? is this like my family? lol






I think the best parts are the football and basketball paper! Sweet

Decades Dance!

Yet another dance! This one was kinda lame though. They basically tried to force us to learn how to swing dance instead of actually having a dance. i took lots of pictures though! yay!



I was an awesome hippie :). My friend sean tried to be a hippie, but i don't think that just a tie dye shirt cuts it. I dont really know what pete was trying to be, but a red womens blazer is definately the way to go. My friend Cami (who also happens to be our Relief Chief aka Relief Society President) was from the 80's. So basically the best part of this dance was dressing up and taking pictures. yay! i miss you all! only 41 days until i come home! yayyy
