Billings, Montana.

Allons-y!

Geronimo!

This'll be fantastic.

Growing Collection

Along with the previous two meetings of Charles and Jimmer, I was fortunate enough to meet...

Kyle Van Noy, BYU Linebacker

Tyler Haws, BYU Shooting Guard

...as well as Brandon Davies (BYU Center), Jackson Emery (BYU alum Shooting Guard), Noah Hartsock (BYU alum Power Forward), Nate Austin (BYU Center), and Matt Carlino (BYU Point Guard).  Unfortunately I didn't get pictures with them.

Maybe I idolize sports players too much, but I've always looked up to them because I know first hand how hard it is to be an athlete.  You're getting yelled at by coaches and fans unless you do something amazing.  If you're good in any way, you have expectations put on you and if they aren't met each game, everyone makes you feel bad about yourself.  The physical aspect of it is grueling...it's really hard to stay in top physical shape.  An added bonus is the fact that all of these boys adhere to the BYU honor code, and many of them have been on LDS missions.  I suppose they're the best athletes I could choose to admire, since most NBA/NFL athletes leave a bit to be desired.  (Except for Tim Tebow!  And Aaron Rogers.  I would love to meet them.)

Summer Lovin'

Let's see...I've had a busy summer.  Want to see what I've been up to? Probably not, but I'm going to put it on here anyways.

This summer, I...

...met two of my BYU basketball idols.  Mr. Charles Abouo and Mr. Jimmer Fredette.

...participated in the LHS Alumni Show and made lots of new friends.  And goofed off with some old friends.

...went hiking and river rafting with two of the best aunts ever.

...went to Lagoon.

...saw Johnny Depp at the Lehi Roundup Rodeo.

...got into BYU's Nursing Program.

...celebrated the independence of our beautiful country at Provo's Stadium of Fire.

...went to a fantastic Titanic exhibit in Las Vegas.  Probably the ONLY fantastic thing in Las Vegas.

...got assured that my brother will be a fantastic missionary.

...saw something taller than me.

...went to Six Flags Magic Mountain.

...went to DA BEACH EACH.  Ahem.  Pardon me.

...paid sufficient homage to the Mouse.  Complete with numerous Tower of Terror trips, World of Color, nearly vomiting on the Tea Cups, fireworks, and several rides on the Matterhorn and California Screamin'.

...went to Sundance wit mah friends.

...WICKED.

...said hello to new friends.

...and said goodbye to old friends.

Overall, I'd say this was the best summer ever.

Lookalike?

Several people have told me that I look somewhat like Emma Stone.

Pretty much I freaked out when they told me that because she's insanely gorgeous. :)

What do you think?

Yeah I'll admit, me trying to be glamorous is quite laughable.  But I do like that Emma Stone has freckles...

Love

They say you're really not somebody until somebody else loves you.

John 15:9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. ♥


This was on Facebook and I loved it a lot.  Thanks David Lee and Marie Nuccitelli. 

Me and Sam. Sam I Am. Not.

This is a cool picture.

Also I love Samantha George Laub.

Truth.
