The SWEETest Things!

I Love LIFE! ...well most of the time lately anyway :)--I haven't spent much time thinking about how awesome life is and have been primarily focused on the ridiculously demanding schedules Adam and I have had. I met with one of my 3 English Professors last week and he informed me that I have single-handedly taken on 2 of the most horrid and demanding English Professors in the same semester! That is just SoOOoo like me too! I don't know how to do difficulty in moderation! Needless to say--I have never in my life been so anxious for Christmas break to come! I was talking with my friend Shannon this week and we have decided that its going to be a community effort to get me through this last semester--well...second to last! But with all of the Senior Madness tonight I couldn't be happier!

I took some of my Birthday Monies and bought the new Maroon 5 C.D. and the cutest Colbie Caillat CD :) And let me just say how much I am in love with music! It truly has such a way to put you in the best mood and take you back to amazing moments in your life! Maroon 5 brings back especially delightful memories!!! Me and the lovely Anster, Mariss and Mind ditched out on a Wagner opera in Vienna and went to the Maroon 5 concert! *sigh* SUCH good times...I think it was without a doubt one of the funnest things we did!

I also must say how thankful I am for family!!! My sister Cindy just had her first wee babe on Sept. 26th! I couldn't be more excited!!! Her name is Bella Lyn Hadley and she seriously is so adorable! Which is a good sign...cause new babies are usually unfortunate looking-...like little shriveled old men... and get cuter as they mature--lol--but seriously she is so darling!!! Adam went today to visit...I wish I had pictures...maybe next blog :)

And my last and certainly not least thing that I am grateful for this eve is for all my fellow friends! I love the bloggin-ness too-- Especially the pictures! So many fun things and so many cute little munchkins!!! I just want everyone to know how much I love you all! I hope everyone is having a fabulous evening and since most of you are asleep........Have a wonderful Day!.....when you wake up! <--Perhaps I should have stopped long ago!....and Monika you think you use ellipsis a lot! LOL! We must be related!!!

An EXPLOSIVE Campout

Hey gang...so over the weekend we went with some friends up Big Cottonwood Canyon to the Spruces Campground! It was some seriously goodtimes mixed with some minor catastrophes! First upon getting to the Campground our friends, Kari and Nick, borrowed a Pop-up Tent Trailor...which upon set-up decided to snap a cable! It was seriously so sad! It's worst when bad stuff happens to equiptment on campouts etc...especially when you have borrowed the equiptment! BLAST!!! So Adam and Nick spent the next 1.5-2 hours make-shifting a way to keep the callapsed side up--resulting in some interesting remedies one of which included Adam climbing a tree (much like one of the men you see at the Polynesian Cultural Center retrieving coconuts) in order to secure a rope that was supporting that end!

Catastrophe #2 involved our idiodic camp "neighbors" which consisted of about 8 young men. Needless to say upon starting their campfire with GASOLINE, they proceeded to engulf and entire TREE in FLAMES!!!! My heart seriously stopped! They then put out the fire with their pillows and bodies

When all is said and done...it was a delightful evening with friends...but our crazy neighbors certainly put a damper on the eve!
