Top Moments of My First Semester as an Aggie!!

So I know I just posted, but I just want to recap my First Semester in COLLEGE at Utah State!!

So one of the biggest moments for sure was MOVING IN!! This was the first step to Freedom!

The next would have to be slip 'n' sliding down Old Main Hill at 1:30 in the morning!! (Picture was taken before we got all messy!)

The next would be going to my first Aggie football game which we WON!!! :)

The next one is probably my favorite thing I did all semester which was hike the Wind Caves at 3 in the morning!!! 

Also going and visiting all my good old Virginian Mormons down at the BY!


Another top one Fo' Sho' would be the PAINT DANCE!! It was freezing cold and my clothes are completely ruined because of it but TOTALLY worth it! Plus my picture made the front page of the Statesman (USU's newspaper)...no big deal :)

Putting a 3rd bed into Madi and Kaitlyn's room, which I slept in quite often...and now I am a permanent member of that room...even though we lost Madi :(

One Monday night, it was the first snowfall up in Logan (in October by the way), and my friend Dave from Cali , was like a little boy jumping for joy over the snow, and we got a group and went up into the Canyon and had  a snow ball fight...which I got completely DESTROYED! (Thanks again Taylor and Brennan....) Oh and the way up there....me, Nate, and Brennan rode in the bed of Dave's truck in like 20 degree weather...yeah were that tough!


Halloween Mini-Golfing was definitely another good night. It was "date night" and I went with my friend Nate. Needless to say...we totally kicked butt at mini-golfing!!

Another high light from October was going to the Logan Temple to do baptisms for the dead.  I was able to go with my fourth cousin on both sides (freaky relation I know) Madi.  When we both heard each other's conformations we both started to cry.  I am so grateful there are such strong young women in my ward!!

One Saturday night, Brennan, Cory and I went to Hamilton's for a dancing, it was way fun, plus I love this picture!

The Howl. Oh the Howl.  For any of you who don't know what The Howl is...apparently it is the biggest Halloween party west of the Mississippi..just sayin! But there was a magician, We the Kings, a constant dance party, games, food, comedians, bands! It was sick! Plus everyone was dressed up for Halloween! This year I went as a biker chick.  Fake tattoos and everything!

In November, we celebrated our friend's Nate's 21st birthday! I baked apple crisp (my Mormon homemaking skills already at work!) The best part of this picture is my roommate Rachel, digging into the apple crisp, when she was supposed to be on the HCG diet....diet didn't go too well. haha Love ya Rach!

Also in November, one Friday Night we went to Cory's hokey game and we WERE the fan section, boys shirtless and all! My friend Lauryn as we walk in was like "Oh goodness there's shirtless guys at this game" and I was like "Those guys are with us". haha!

I also FINALLY went BLONDE this Semester! Even though it was a bit much at first its balanced out nicely! I love it!!

In December, it finally snowed enough and one night we all went out and sledded and skied down Old Main.  The first picture is of me and Sydney getting ready to sled and the next is of my friend Brennan. I love it cause he is looking right at the camera!


Ahh, finally December. Time for Ugly Christmas Sweaters! The first weekend in December we had a Ward Christmas Party with Ugly Christmas sweaters and White Elephant gifts! The third picture is when we had a roommate ugly sweater and gift exchange party!




Then the Tuesday before I left, there was a roommate dinner of 302E, which I will be living in next semester.! I love all these ladies!!

Also these are two random pictures that I gotta add.  The first one is me and Syd chowing down on some candy canes! Perfect for the Christmas Season! Also me and Syd bought our friend Nate those Santa shorts....and seeing him wear them constantly....made my December!!

Finally, this is us cheering (with Martinellis don't worry) to the end of the semester!!

I am so grateful for all the people I have met so far this semester. I am grateful for the experiences and memories I have created.  But most of all I am grateful I am able to go to college and do this. Thanks Mom and Dad! I can't wait for next semester!!!
