fun.


last night marissa, kelsey and i went to a release party at barnes and noble for suzanne collin's novel mockingjay.

we judged a fashion show, and ended up getting to cut 1000 people in line
we participated in archery and kelsey got a perfect score- much to our surprise
we got mockingjay tattoos on our forearms [it made me feel pretty hard core today]
marissa and i stayed up reading till three o'clock in my new apartments twin bed
we ate in silence at ihop with our books next to our plates

so basically we are really cool. and basically i'm going to attend more release parties
because they're fun. and i'm fun.

i'm thinking of you

i spent the weekend in logan with my cousins and grandma. i had so much fun. i worked on a quilt, went on a hike, ate at the best restaurants, took a zumba class at the sports academy and so much more! i've always loved logan and hyrum, and every time i go up there i think to myself- why don't i do this more often?? it is so much fun, and a great little getaway.

my grandma had a
typewriter she let me play around on while i was at her place. she thought it was absolutely hilarious that i wanted to mess around with her 'antique', but i came back the next day with a little creative project in mind. i made a bunch of thank you/birthday cards etc. and i am in love with them. their perfect- simple. and just my style.
i had the most amazing time with my grandma hearing stories of her and my grandpa and just talking about life. i look up to her so much and am so excited about the possibility of seeing her more often next year!

squares



Dancing at discos
Eating cheese on toast
Yeah you make me merry make me very very happy
But you obviously, you didn't want to stick around
I can be alone
I can watch a sunset on my own
