BIRTHDAYS!!!

I love birthdays. Fact. Seriously though... I really love my birthday a lot. But I also love celebrating other people's birthdays too. It is just so exciting. :)
Things I love about birthdays:
parties
friends
food
games
It is just all happy things. This weekend was birthday weekend. And two of my bestest friends (Jake and Wesley) had birthdays this weekend. It was so much fun! I loved every minute of it. Christie, Vanessa, and I threw Jake a surprise birthday party on friday. It was fun. We did pudding pictionary...it turned into a pudding fight. haha. So fun though. And we played imaginiff. I love love that game. Saturday was my roommate Sarah's birthday party. We went to the tumbling gym and played games after. Sunday was Wes's birthday. We had a party for him also. Lots of friends from the old ward came and it was fun. Because it was their birthdays, I just wanted to say how grateful I am for Jake and Wes. They are two of the most amazing people I know! I am so glad we are such good friends. I love them!!!
Now for some pictures!

I decided to do this. (the thing were you put your ipod/itunes on shuffle and then put what songs come on as the answer) I am having trouble getting back in the school mode, and this seemed like a fun thing to do. And some of the answers were hilarious. Like the "what do you think of your friends" one is kinda sad actually. I don't really hate them... haha.

I'm going home....

I kinda got sick of this song. But its what I am feeling today. I am so incredibly ready to be home. And its getting close (I am sitting in the Denver airport).

So I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong...
No, I think you got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old

Those are just some lyrics that I'm feeling today. I think this is the most excited I have been to go home. I couldn't sleep I was so excited haha.

♥ disney ♥

I love Disney. Yes, I really do. Disney has made some pretty amazing movies. I was thinking about it last night. I watched Ratatouille with Wes. (after we were disappointed with the cheap theater and the dark knight...but that is not the point of this post.) Ratatouille is a cute and pretty funny movie. As is most Disney movies. I sometimes feel like I am five years old because I like Disney so much. Actually I like more then just Disney, I like most cartoon movies. But it's because they are so hilarious. They are clean and so enjoyable. Example, Kung Fu Panda, my new fav. And I just saw Madagascar 2 which is so funny. Seriously I love animated movies and I can't help it.

lovin' life

Today was the last home football game of the season. Which is sad, but it turned out to be such an amazing day!!! We won of course. That is always good. And it was just so fun cheering and stuff with my friends. Lisa and I went early and got our names on the list to shoot the George Q. Cannon! But they kept pushing our names back and we were getting anxious. Finally with ten minutes left they called our names. We ran down there and watched the rest of the game from the sideline. The team didn't end up scoring again, but they let us shoot it at the end of the game anyway. We were so excited!!! Then they gave us shirts and we got to take pictures with the ROTC and the cannon. Since the game was over we kinda just hung out on the sidelines and gave the football players high fives as they ran around the stadium. Oh man. What a happy day it was. Then on the way home Brian, Steve, Lisa, and I made a pile of leaves and jumped in them. That was so fun too! Basically, we are the coolest people ever and do the funnest things. :) I love my life!

Kung Fu Panda

I love movies. Fact. And I become obsessive. But that's how I am with everything. Basically I either don't like something or I really like something to the point of obsession. Some of my obsessions are Harry Potter, the Beatles, and Batman. A new obsession is Kung Fu Panda. If you have not seen this movie you are missing out. It is hilarious. I've seen it multiple times and laugh uncontrollably every time. Kung Fu Panda comes out on DVD on November 11 and I will surely be buying it that day. But also it will become a movie I watch every day for weeks. Thats how I get. It might be weird but oh well. I haven't done this with a movie in a long time, and I am getting so excited for the day when I can do it with good ole Kung Fu Panda! Basically this is a post confessing my obsessions. But really if you know me you know I am obsessive. Its okay though because I like that I don't hide what I love. I have Batman sheets and pillow case, I have a Kung Fu Panda blanket, my walls are covered in Beatles and Harry Potter posters. :)
