Auburn? Or Not?

Okay, so it's been a while since I did this....this being getting my hair dyed with my preferred color - auburn!

Let's start at the beginning.
Tired of that dull brown hair....


Then begin changing it up...


To AUBURN!!!!!


Doesn't that look like so much fun?! I look so much happier, all because my hair color has changed.... just kidding. It's actually very subtle and will really start showing if I'm out in the sun. But I still love it and think that it's great!

P.S. I was actually playing with some of the features on my laptop to see what sort of editing I can do, so I'm reposting some of the graduation pictures and adding a couple of panoramics too!



The panoramics may look small but click on them and see what they look like.

More Random Pictures

Here are some more random photos that I took. In this picture you can see the beauty of Idaho in the winter time. The snow is here right now and I am really enjoying it (particularly because I'm not likely to see much of it when I go down to Texas).


This next picture are of me and my great friend Janae just playing around with my camera while we were waiting in her car at the Eastern Idaho State Fair. I like the picture of me because it helps me to look so....innocent.... mwhahahahahahaha!


I'm also inserting another picture of my family that I took. I actually thought that it turned out quite well. This is only a little part of my family. There's my parents my three younger brothers and my younger sister again!

A Bit Of Catch Up!

Hello Everyone!

Well, I'm up here visiting friends in Rexburg and just thought that I'd post some pictures and stuff. This first one is a picture of the Rexburg temple during one of my many wonderful walks around the BYU-Idaho campus during the fall. I thought it was just great and it's such a beautiful temple.


This one is a picture of my sister and I. If you can't tell which is which....well, then you just don't know me that well. However, we are always told that we look incredibly alike.


The following pictures actually come from an accident that happened to Schultz (my car) the day after my graduation. Schultz and I haven't had the best of luck during the last couple of months, or maybe we've had some great luck. First, I got hit by a car while I was crossing a street, but I only had the injuries of a SWEET bruise, a bump on the head, and a couple of small black eyes. Schultz didn't want to be left out of this, so the day after graduation it snowed A LOT and the streets were way icy. I got Schultz all packed up so that we could head home and I was finishing with the cleaning of my apartment. My roommate and I were taking the garbage out and while we were watching a girl tried to turn into the apartment parking lot, started to slide, and who does she hit but poor Schultz! All I could do was stand there and say "Oh NO!" I couldn't exactly tell him to get out of the way, now could I? He just doesn't listen like that. Anyway, he was hurt, I was distraught.... Anyway, you don't have to worry, cause in both accident instances they had insurance. Therefore, I'm all healed and Schultz was repaired just this last week and we both look FABULOUS!!! And I finally got everything settled with the insurance for both accidents so we are happy as clams...or just happy like a person who had an awesome bruise and car named Schultz.


Anyway, another update in a little over a week. I really think that I'm spoiling whoever reads my blog. I'll try to come up with more things to put onto this. Maybe someday I'll add all the pictures from my San Antonio trek back to Idaho that I did in August and September. Better late then never!

Love ya'all!!

Happy New Year!

I was able to get some time to be on the internet so I thought that I would update some on things.

First: Happy New Year! I'm excited for 2009, lots of new experiences and things to try!

Second: Thanks to all who wished me a happy birthday! It was great!

Third: I'm inserting my graduation pictures. I thought that I looked too cute to just leave me on my camera! I know that all of them have me in them, but....well that's just the way it is! Ha, ha, ha. My dad and friend, Teag are also featured in some of these dazzling pictures.

Gangrene?!

I know that many of you have been wondering...especially since my last post was in November...if the injuries that I received from being hit by a car resulted in my contracting Gangrene (had to look that up on google) in my injuries. No I am not dead. Nor has my leg been cut off. I just haven't been able to have time or internet activity to post again. I'm posting now to let all know that I have things to post on here, I just want to add the pictures and don't have them up yet. Therefore, maybe I'll be able to do that next time.

Anyway, some of the things to be highlighted: I was able to graduate from college (YEAH!!!), then the day after that, I had all my things packed in my car, whose name is Schultz, when it was snowing pretty hard and some girl was turning into our parking lot and smashed into the back of Schultz. I was very sad and am still trying to work through all the insurance claim stuff. I celebrated Christmas and had a great one! Anyway, we'll talk more about all these things at a later time when I can show pictures!

Crosswalk-Car Accident - b

Because of my experience, I got interviewed by Channel 6 and it aired on the news Wednesday night at 6 and 10. Then my mom told me that it also aired the next morning as well!

I'm famous!!!


Sorry if it's not a very great recording, I was getting it from my laptop with my camera!

Crosswalk-Car Accident

Okay, so for those of you who haven't heard, on the past Monday, Nov. 10, I was kind of hit by a car here in Rexburg, while I was crossing at a cross walk. Like any proud and happy mother, I have a few bruises which I absolutely love and adore. The main one is on my knee. Though I have a couple of bruises developing under my eyes, so I laugh every time I look in a mirror.

The following ones were taken mainly on Wednesday evening so they've had some time to develop. The new one came from where the car hit me, which put me onto it's hood. It's my favorite. And yes, I do have a chocolate candy bar beside me! I need to keep up my strength after all!



These next ones were take on Thursday. I would like to turn everyone's attention to the fact that the bruising is slowly starting to spread down my leg. I know....beautiful!


When I was on the hood of the car, I pushed myself off and face-planted it into the pavement, slightly scraping a bump in my hair and cutting my nose. It was a little sensitive for a few days, but then the bruising started up under my eyes. So I look a little like a raccoon! I also scraped up my glasses, but I'm already in the process of getting some new ones.
