Apartment and Roomies

Sorry it too so long Carissa, but I finally have some new pictures up!

This is our vanity after getting ready for church. Not bad eh? I'm so glad my roommates are tidy people.

My walk-in closet! That's one thing I used to miss about my room back home, but now I have one up here!

My room is finally all unpacked and fully functional.

This is my roommate Amber. She was the first one I met. She's so cute! She's from Utah and just got back from a mission to Peru in November. She brings such a great spirit to our apartment and is such a sweetheart to all of us.

This is Alyssa. She's from Indiana and only 18! I couldn't believe it when she told me that. She's such a beautiful girl and has quite a few boys barking up her tree. She's a lot of fun and I can't wait to get to know her more.

This is Kelly! She's from Oregon and is such a doll! She's so nice to me all the time and always asks me how my day is going. She plays the guitar and the ukulele . . . I think that's how you spell it.

I love all of my roommates! I have two more, but they were out of town for the weekend. Melissa is originally from California, but she moved to Washington when she was about 16. She's engaged and will be getting married right after the end of this semester in April. My other roommate is Megan. She was my first roommate my first semester and one of my best friends from high school.

My New Apartment!

Sorry it's taken so long to get this posted, but my internet hasn't been very kind to me.


I love my apartment and my roommates. Stay tuned for further pictures.

SNOWMAN FOR CHRISTMAS

I don't know why I do this to myself. My blog (other than Carissa and Becca) has some of my most embarrassing pictures. I didn't even put make up on today and I volunteered to have my picture taken.
BUT! I did have a lot of fun making a snowman with Sara. I don't think she's made one before. It was harder than I remember and the snow didn't hold together very well, but he turned out perfectly! Any name suggestions?

Cooking With Carissa . . . AGAIN!

Our finished product

MMMMMMMM YUMMMY!

This was Carissa just before her date with Joe. Doesn't her hair look cute?

Last week, Carissa and I dared to do the possible. That's right! We made some spinach triangles! . .. well, Carissa made the triangles and I cut vegetables for our pitas we had with the triangles. I think our practice is really paying off. Our restaurant idea becomes more possible with each passing week, our pants get tighter, our cousinship grows stronger, and my family continues to beg for more.

I found this adorable clip of Sara trying to read a book. I think it's upside down and she's not looking at the page half the time, but she's just too dang cute!

Sweet Little Sara

My sleeping mask that she thinks is hers. She keeps putting it in her toy box.

Walking with her cousin as we waited for our family to come out of the temple.

Coloring on a white board in our closet.

Her Hannah Montana hips.

So serious!

She puts her dolls to bed each night.

Cooking with Carissa WEDNESDAY!

We missed last week, but don't worry, we're back in business. Tonight Carissa and I made a Mexican dish, perhaps you've heard of it, TACOS! and 7 layer dip. It sure was yummy! Carissa wanted to cook the hamburger and chop the onions. I was more than happy to let her do that. It was definitely the easiest, cleanest and fastest meal so far. Stay tuned for next week.
