Pictures are worth a thousand words

But some of these are only worth like two or three. These are just a bunch of fun pictures that I thought I'd share with you all.


This is at the open house back at the beginning of August. Yeremy (pronounced Jeremy) and I went with my Korean roommate Hanah. It was a really wonderful experience. I love the temple and Yeremy, and Hanah!
This is Clarke! He came up to Utah for Education week (we met and Education Week awhile back). So we partied a little. We matched this day, so we took pictures.
This is Alia on her birthday. She's 21 and really good at making funny faces. Behind her is Zach...he's awesome. Check out his Mountain Man Madness (aka beard). He has to shave it now.

Lauren, Adam, and Caleb. The silliness of this picture is priceless. From looking at these pictures, you may all think I have weird friends...I know I do =)

This is Lauren and Stevie-Boy, her bat balloon. He has been with us for three weeks now, and is still plenty plump and floating. He is a good friend, but we all fight over him. Lauren has to continually remind us all that he is hers.

Alia and I last Sunday. We are pretty. The end.


Family Home Evening (obviously)
I remember long ago, somebody who shall remain unnamed (cough*Lisa*cough) who dumped mashed potatoes on our dinning room table and created art out of it. I think David may have helped. This is a very vague dim memory, and might be completely made up...but nevertheless, it has always stuck with me and I've wanted to sculpt mashed potatoes for a long time. I finally had an FHE family that I could convince to do this with me.
This is Kyle. If you want to hear a funny story about him, let me know...it's pretty funny. He is carving details onto a car.


This is a heart that said love...we're killing it =)
This is a star ...of course
This is Vanessa carving something. This picture makes me laugh.
This is teancum killing his mashed potato pony.
This is teancum (designed by Alia)

Steven and Vanessa are inside chatting away. DK, Alia and I are chilling on our bench. And Joe's bike is hiding under the blanket. He told us to not let anyone steal it, so of course we stole it and hid it. He honestly had trouble finding it...It was great.

Alia and are are happy
Alia and I are sad (but we aren't really sad, but we look cool looking sad)

Just so you know, I love my roommates. We play a lot, and make silly faces. Sorry I put you through all that. I love you all


12:30 PM

Christmas is coming up soon


And anyone who would like me to design their christmas cards can just ask (and send me pictures.) I can do it pretty much any way you'd like but it takes a while that is why I'm putting the shout out now. I promise to work with you to get what you want not just make it crazy Shelly-style (which lets admit has flair ;)
