winter musings.

1. it was 0 degrees Farenheit today. literally. that is way too stinkin cold.

2. one more day of classes!

3. old navy has super cute stockings on sale - for only $1.00! and they're very very cute. don't worry. i bought 9. one for everyone in my family!

3. me and gravy have this obnoxious thing going on - we literally can not get mad at each other for more than a few minutes without one of us (which leads to both of us) bursting into laughter. its horrible!! i can't prove a point. i can't make him think im mad. i can't stay mad no matter how hard i try. its frustrating! okay so there's actually nothing horrible about it. i suppose it's actually really a great thing. but...frustrating!

4. we're officially done christmas shopping!! for everyone...except each other. but that will be done tomorrow! so exciting. i'm so excited about the presents that we are giving this year. we put so much thought into them, and i'm just really excited to give them away!!

5. we've had another little fun surprise thrown into our christmas vacation. gregs parents are going to fly down to vegas and meet us for 2 days on our way to california! greg and his parents are going to go to the vegas bowl to see BYU play, while I get my hair done by my favorite person!! it's been almost a year since she's done my hair. i really can't tell you how excited i am about it! we are staying at the trump hotel on the strip (exciting!), hopefully going to go see a show, and eating amazing food! (ie. claim jumper. my favorite thing about las vegas. giant pretzels with extra cheese, diet coke, black tie chicken pasta, chocolate chip cream cheese pie! ohh boy) it will be a fun little diversion! then off to califonrnia! sunshine, hot tubs, movies, food, yay!

6. i'm totally gona get straight a's again this semester :] woo-hoo!! scholarship finally please??

7. danny won the biggest loser. Better him than rudy...but still..why not amanda?? i liked her most. and she looked smokin at the finale!

8. last night at old navy i bought the CUTEST sweatpants that i have ever had. i will post a picture asap. They're bright orange and pink striped. oh boy. i love them. greg tried to make me wait until christmas to wear them - ya right!!! they're my new favorite article of clothing.

9. i've been married for almost 6 months. thats a long time! haha. i know what you're all thinking...no, it's not that long. but it kind of is! a lot has happened, we've both changed and grown and done so much. i love it!

10. we had some friends over for dinner on sunday night. i had a pretty delish recipe to make to dinner, but i needed something super for dessert. in my head i remembered seeing a picture of a blackberry peach cobbler. i had my heart set on it. i went through every single dessert page of every single cookbook that i own (not that many..but still..a big effort) and i couldn't find the picture! so, i recruited greg. we again went through every single dessert page of every single cookbook. not there. so, i decided to go back through all of the blogs that i read where people post recipes - thinking, obviously it had to be there. i knew that i had for sure seen it somewhere!!! i went back for 2 months worth of blogs. nothin! so, i remembered that a few days ago i had been waiting for greg to get out of class and i had looked through some cookbooks there. of course! it was obviously at the BYU bookstore. so, we packed up in the middle of the freezing snow, and drove to the bookstore. we dilligently looked through all of the dessert pages of like 15 cookbooks. NO BLACKBERRY PEACH COBBLER. we were about to head to costco, where i also remember seeing a cookbook....when i decided that i would just google it and see what images popped up. low and behold. i found it. 3 hours later... so. we made it. and it turned out disgusting. BUMMER!!! never again will i got running around the city in the snow trying to find a stupid recipe.

well. thats all. thanks bye!
