I might be a blogger....we will see

So I have been considering this whole blogging idea, and I decided to give it a try.  I realize I am off the radar to anyone but those people I see on a regular basis, so hear is a brief overview of my life the last few months.  This may be a one time only kind of deal but hear goes nothing.

I graduated from BYU last April with four of my siblings....so fun.

I graduated in Exercise Science and have decided to go back to school to get my teaching certificate.  I am getting a certificate to teach PE and Health.  One day I hope to teach Exercise Science, Anatomy, or Physiology.  A few months ago I passed the NASM exam and got my personal training certificate, so I hope to do a little of that on the side.
I love my PE program so far.  I have all my classes with the same group of people and we have all become friends-- it is so much fun. This last semester we taught in the elementary school.  We taught things like jump rope, parachute, dance, obstacle course, etc.  It was a blast.  Next semester we teach middle school, then in the fall we teach high school, and then student teaching!

I have also been working as a waitress at Spark Restaurant Lounge.   Waitressing is getting a little old but I work in a fun place and I work with great people.

We throw parties every now and again for the holidays.  This is my coworkers and I dressed up as goddesses and gladiators for our Halloween party. Spark hosted 600 hundred people.  It was so fun!

I had an awesome senior year and was feeling apprehensive about living in Provo for two more years.  I have really missed living with this girl:

But I have a fun time living with these girls:
Its been a great year so far. I have been able to meet a lot of new people and make a lot of new friends since most of mine have gotten married and moved away. 

Aside from school and work, I am in my second year coaching girls basketball at Provo High School.  Last year I helped coach the sophomores and this year I got to move up with them.  I am an assistant JV/Varsity coach.  This is one of the highlights of my life right now.  I get to coach these girls:


We had just gotten our sweats so everyone was excited.  I love coaching these girls.  You wont meet a better/more fun group of girls anywhere in the world.  It fills up most of my free time but is totally worth it.  I have learned a lot.
And one of the best parts is I get to coach with this girl.  I met Darcee coaching last year.   She teaches health and PE at the high school (I aspire to be her).  She is one of my very best friends.  Picture the funniest person you know and times it by two.  That's her.  We have so much fun together.


I have been missing this girl and I am so excited for her to come from College for Christmas Break!


For Christmas my family is going to Disney World!!  I can't wait!  
Soon after we return my other half is leaving to another country.  Her honeymoon was the longest I have ever gone without seeing her so this should be interesting...
I will miss you two:
 I aspire to marry someone as awesome as Jeff

Christmas is on its way and ski season is already here!  Yahoo!


Enjoy the holidays and embrace the snow!!

  3. Look at you being the world's cutest blogger and THANK YOU for including that super sexy picture of me trying to lick you. Now the internet world will know how truly cool I am. Love it. I love your super riskay Halloween costume and that just confirms what I already think about you. I don't need to post it online. Could I borrow that costume next year? I think you should keep up this blogging thing. It gives me one more thing to do at school when I'm bored and want to murder my students. So I hate you for not being at practice tomorrow, but I will forgive you. I hope you got some got some and I hope I get to see your pretty face soon! Love ya!
