Catching up on everything

Some really exciting things happened last semester that I never blogged about! I'd like to do that now :)
1) I went home. Home home to Coeur d'Alene and it was FANTASTIC. It was so good to be in beautiful CDA and to see people I hadn't seen since before my first year at BYUI. On my last night at home, I hiked Tubbs Hill with Bryant Baird, who was leaving for the MTC a few days later. It was good to catch up with him :)
Me and Bryant (sideways, sorry). Not very flattering of me, but who reads my blog anyways? =P
He's still in the MTC waiting for his visa right now, but as soon as that happens he'll be serving in Sao Paulo, Brazil. He's going to be an awesome missionary!




2) The next weekend I forced my friend Jake to drive me to Provo so I could see Brooklyn. There's a big hare krishna festival at the Hindi Temple in Spanish Fork called the Festival of Colors and it was AWESOME! People throw handfuls of colored chalk at each other. I think it's to welcome spring, but that could be way off. It's chaotic and loud and amazing. I even got kissed by some random *really attractive* man. I think he was just running around grabbing girls to kiss, but I'm pretty sure we had a connection :)
Anyway. Here's me and Bklyn. Also sideways, but necks are flexible.





3) The NEXT weekend was general conference, so two of my roommates, Janessa and Jess, and I went to Jess's house in Burley. Jess's mom fed us almost constantly and between meals we stuffed our faces with candy and watched movies and slept. It was one of my favorite weekends all semester! On the way into Burley, we stopped at Jake's Over the Top, an icecream place that I fell in love with when I was an EFY counselor in Ogden this summer.




The End

My brother went to the Hare Krishna festival of colors last year. It looks awesome! I want to go someday.

P.S. I'm sure the random guy who kissed you felt the connection, too. ;)

I read your blog. That's all that should matter. And Juli served in Sao Paulo... just thought you should know.
