Take me back...

To my childhood...
Forts! In the living room. The first one Kelsey and I slept out in...well I slept out there until I woke up with Kelsey on top of me! Then I went back to my bed and slept...plus I was freezing. :)



The second one took place at 2 in the morning. I just watched Mindy and Abster put it together. I'm getting too old to participate much. Haha. Nah, someone had to document it!



I knew I brought an extra set of sheets for a reason! (Shhh. Don't tell them I posted these pictures of them...they said I couldn't put them on facebook...as far as I know, this isn't facebook.) Haha.

Brrrrr

So we have a pretty dog-gone cool FHE group. We meet every Monday evening and do and activity and have a lesson. We went ice skating one night. I'm pretty sure all of my appendages would have frozen off if we had stayed outside much longer!

Here we go.

Here are a few pictures of my roommates. We had a fiesta night, complete with a pinata. Broke the broom and smacked the wall, but it was fun! Abbey and her brother, Parker made dinner and Mindy, Kelsey and Abbey made Oreo truffles for dessert.

Katie, Kelsey and Jackie enjoying the festivities. :)
Elliot...so brave to hold the pinata!
Matt
Kelsey
Abbey making deliciousness
Aww Parker, what a nice apron you have.


Kelsey, Mindy, and Abbey. Don't I have the cutest roommates? (The answer is yes.)

Now..

That I have this figured out there will be a flood of posts! Yes, I am putting my homework off, but I am doing this for YOU. ;o) I'm loving this semester. Great apartment, awesome roomies, and the weather is great. The snow is starting to melt, and it's warm enough to go outside without a coat! (in the upper 30s, lower 40s) Classes, well I am taking a drawing class, art history 2, sacred art (studying the 7 major world religions and their art) Book of Mormon 2, and Children's Lit.
Right now, I'd like to share with you some of my favorite art works we have studied in Art History, and some I have just found. If you aren't comfortable with nudity, please close the window now. Haha.
There are just some things that when you see them hits you like a ton of bricks.


Titian, Venus of Urbino. This is just beautiful. She's real woman, not a skinny mini.

Dali, Woman with a Flower Head

Caravaggio, Entombment. Notice how the man hold Christ's legs is looking at you, inviting you into the scene.

Bosch, Garden of Earthly Delights

Artemisia Gentileschi, Judith Slaying Holofernes. My favorite artist. She really had an interesting life.



Let's try this again.

Well, since last night, or I guess earlier this morning, the pictures wouldn't load, I'm trying again!

This is my bedroom, drawers under the bed! Woot!



Well...

Well, look who is a total slacker... yeah, that would be me. The semester is over halfway done and I'm just now doing my first post. Looks like I've got a lot of catching up to do! I'll post stuff in no particular order! How rude! The pictures aren't uploading. I'll try again tomorrow! Until then!

4th of July

Well we had a nice 4 day weekend for the 4th of July. Stacie and I were the only ones home for the holiday so we went paddle boating on Justin's (Stacie's boyfriend) grandma's pond, tin foil dinners, went to Yellowstone, and then to Idaho Falls for fireworks. It was fun!

Yellowstone!






Tin foil dinners!


Paddle Boating!




What a nice weekend!
