My Accomplishment

I can officially dance again! I had the opportunity to go to the Manwaring Center and go Latin dancing with Becky and Patrick on Friday and had so much fun! I didn't have any problems with my knee! It was great to get back on my feet and learn the dance that dislocated my knee in the first place! (For those of you who don't know, yes I dislocated my knee learning how to salsa dance. It has now been declared the most dangerous dance know to knees.)

Thanksgiving!

FHE/Ward Halloween Party!

Monday night we had a Ward Halloween Party in which we competed the other FHE groups. We had a relay with multiple activities that we placed 4th in, had a pudding eating contest that my group forced me to do, (yuck!!!) and a donut on a string eating contest that my roomie, Becky, placed first in! Taura made some oreo truffles that were absolutely amazing! (and easy!) We took first place in the desserts and Taura and I won cutest couple! Woot! That was such a fun night! I love my FHE group! (You'll notice in the group picture that there is only one guy...well, we have a total of 3 guys but they aren't big fans of FHE...but we all love Patrick!)

Ropes Course!!!

Today my ward got to go to the ropes course! It was a blast! I was very worried because I didn't know what I'd be able to do with my knee. I was able to do everything! We started at the giant swing. (You are pulled up 30-35 feet in the air and released and you just swing!)



Please watch this movie. It has all my pics on it but I couldn't get is onto here. (I'm not very technology savy)


Ropes Course 10/18/08

The girl who wouldn't drop is my lovely Taura. She HATES rollarcosters because she hates the feeling that you get when you drop. If you listen closely you can hear her say, "Can we go lower?" and then Ashleigh, her old roommate says, "Suck it up!" So funny!

I was so afraid that I wouldn't be able to do much that day. I took some ibuprofin and dived right in. I climbed to the top of that tower and was so proud of myself. I was pretty sore the next day though!

OUR FIRST ROAD TRIP!!!

There is a girl up here that is one of my favorite people in the whole world! Her name is Ashleigh and is my roomie's, Taura, old roommate. She is absolutely darling and hilarious! She is also very spontaneous and loves to travel. She came up to me the other day and said, "We are going to an opera in Salt Lake on Thursday. Are you going to come?" It was going to be a rehearsal night so it was three dollars a ticket (with our student discount!) and was absolutely incredible! Ashleigh drove and got us horribly lost. Her childhood friend, Frank, sat shotgun and two of my roommates and I sat in the back.

Katelynn went to a different concert so we dropped her off at a parking garage. We were lucky that the parking garage was deserted because we all changed into our "opera attire". We got into our formals (Frank was in a suit) and walked over to the Capital Theater.

The show we saw was called Madame Butterfly. Apparently it's a world famous play but I had never heard of it. They showed captions on a screen so we could understand. I definately recommend this show! It's so funny and sad!

Ashleigh...so cute!

TauraLee and Ashleigh! Looking good!

Me (wearing my $180 dollar dress that I got for $30!), TauraLee (my roomie), Ashleigh (she hates wearing dresses and curling her hair. This picture is proof that she is a cute girl!), and Frank (he stayed awake the whole 3.5 hour drive to keep me awake while I drove home.)

Ashleigh (once again) She is such a work of art sitting on a work of art!
