The movie night that wasn't and Mojo's!

Rach, Me, Michaela after the non-movie night.

So Thursday night Michaela (MJ), Rach and I had planned on having a girls night and watching Penelope, but alas that did not happen, well the movie anyways. We all brought something to eat, Rach and her scrumptious choco cookies and MJ and her little smokies and pizza. (no one ate my food) So instead of watching the movie, we talked for over 4 hours! Ha ha! No guy is capable of doing that. It was awesome! Oh and I almost died when Michaela's cat lunged at me! Scary!


MJ and Jeremy!


Rach... pretty sure she is gonna hurt me for posting this pic! Ha!
The band with no name.

Then if 4 hours on Thursday wasn't enough, we (MJ and her husband Jeremy, me, Rach and Rich) all headed out to Richard's (Rachel's Husband) show at Mojo's on Friday! It totally rocked my face off!! My fav is when they played the Mission Impossible Theme! It was fun to hang out at the show, but the Emo kids started to get on my nerves towards the end.

After, we headed to Jake's Over the Top for shakes and cheese fries! Yum! Poor Richard got a gross shake and didn't eat any of it, but MJ gave her's to him. That is friendship right there. We talked for about an hour (I was totally the 5th wheel, but still fun!) and then we headed our separate ways. It was soooo much fun!!! I love those girls! Thanks for 2 great nights in a row!! :)

Homework... I think not!



Ok, so I am sitting here trying to do my homework, and I realize I can't focus. Or better yet, I don't want to do my homework, so I won't focus! How bad is it that it is the end of the 3rd week of school and I am already procrastinating? I really need to pull myself together. I am never going to graduate if I keep going at this rate! But, I did have an awesome pedicure today, by the wonderful Christi. And Jessica and I got our feet burned by the paraffin it was awesome. Although I was hoping to get a massage, but we won't get into that.


So that brings me back to the fact that I don't want to do work. My classes are awesome and I really enjoy them, but the whole learning and having to do homework thing... yeah I'm not too big on that one. I asked my friend Shannon why I go to school... and she says its to get a better job that pays more then the one I have now and it all makes sense to me!


Ok, I guess I better do my homework! Even though I am not happy about it! But I do love Weber State! They better win the Homecoming game on Sat. Y'all should go! :) Go big Weeb!

Stand Up to Cancer!

There was a special the other night called Stand Up to Cancer. It was a telethon that raised money for cancer research to find a cure. Many celebrities helped host, donated money, and even told their own stories. It was very emotional for me to watch. I found this video on iTunes and it made me cry.

It made me remember everything that I went through. I can't believe it has been 5 years. It was 6 months of absolute hell, but I am still here. My friend asked me the other day how I was able to stay positive with all the I had to deal with, I told her that you have to. Because if you give up then you have nothing left to fight for. I want to to say thank you to everyone who helped me get through the rough patch. I literally wouldn't be here today without you. Lots of love and God Bless! I AM A SURVIVOR!

You can give back by visiting www.standup2cancer.org or just by giving support to those that you know that have been effected by it.

One Tree Hill Partay!


Ok, well the premiere of One Tree Hill has rolled around yet again, and Rachel Smith and I had the brilliant idea of having a gathering of sorts. So we invited a whole bunch of people (ok like 10) and we had a decent turn out of 6. The guest list included me, Rachel Smith, Megan Smith (don't know her married name), Shannon Roe, Sarah Lebo, and Michaela Johnson! It was awesome-tastic! We swapped some stories (my terrible date, and the popcorn burning incident!), had some popcorn, and Sarah and Shan brought the dew and the chocolate!!! We watched the finale and then followed it up with the premiere! It was sooo much fun! I love being able to hang out with my friends! I hope to do it again soon. Michaela and I totally forgot to take pics so all I have to show is a OTH poster, but still, it was an awesome time! :)

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Um...

Happy Birthday Grandma!



On August 31st we celebrated Eleanor Jenkins' 80th birthday! It was so much fun. All of my Aunts and Uncles were there and almost all of my cousins. The cousins sang 2 primary songs, one that I have never heard before, but I think it went really well. After, we showed a video of her life, put together by April. It was awesome! I almost cried. (I cry a lot!)

We mingled, ate food, and had some good times. Me and the bro's took some crazy pics! All in all it was a success. I love being able to spend time with the Jenkins family. I love them all and I don't get to see them near enough. Happy Birthday Grandma! We love you! :)
