A Holly Jolly Christmas

This years' christmas was really great! Grandma Brooks came to stay at our house on Christmas eve and we participated in all of our usual christmas traditions. This year we decided to add a new tradition onto our list: We all went outside on our porch and sang silent night and just looked around at the lights and beautiful snow. It was really great. All of the kids slept down in my room. Then on Christmas morning we woke up at five thirty , Ethan and Emerie were so excited! Even though I'm getting older I must admit I was pretty dang excited myself! We opened presents and made some omlets for breakfast. It was an amazing christmas! I hope you guys all had a great christmas too!

My Grown Up Christmas List.....doesn't exist

Well, I was just getting on today for fun to see comments and stuff and I decided to write a new post, I really have nothing better to do. It's snowing really really hard up here in good ol' PG and me, Hayden, and Emerie built a huge snow fort in our backyard ! I'd show you a picture, but I don't remember how to get it off my camera onto my computer....haha I'm computer illiterate. I'm pretty much really excited for Christmas, even though I didn't really write a christmas list this year I'm sure I'll be happy with whatever I get :D I miss you all so much!! HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!

I'll be home for Christmas

Well, sorry it's been so long since I blogged......college life is busy! I just got done with finals last week, thank goodness, and now I'm home for three weeks!! I'm really happy to just finally be able to relax and chill with friends and family. I will hopefully see you all over the break!! Love ya!

A Series of Unfortunate Events

Wow. Sorry I haven't blogged in a while, I have been so busy!! Well, haha yesterday was very interesting... I went to Richfield with a bunch of friends to get free haircuts that we heard their snow campus was doing a customer appreciation day. Anyway, so we drove about an hour to get there and they told us that they were packed for the rest of the night. So we all decided to just go to one of the local salons and get our hair cut anyway. About half way through getting my hair cut, I realized that I didn't have my keys! They were lying on the seat of my locked car. I had no extra money to pay for a locksmith and I was pretty much freaking out!!! Then, the man getting his hair cut next to me said that he could try and help, and he ended up popping my window open and getting my keys for me. I was so very grateful!! I am very excited for Halloween!! I have had two opprotunities to dress up, once I was a fairy and the other time I was an electrocuted person with my hair sticking up everywhere, it has been really fun!:D I love you all!!
Love,
Kate

The Incredible HORROR of boredom!!!

ok, so as you can probably already tell by my title, I am bored today. I am not only bored out of my mind, but in my mind as well....Me and my friend Cassi are just sitting in the dorms doing nothing, and we have been doing that for about three or four hours now. Good news is, I have play practice to distract me tonight at six thirty so I won't be so freaking bored......aaaahhhhh!! well, I am probably making you all bored by reading this,so I will leave you all alone.
LOVE YOU ALL!! I MISS YOU!!!

Graduated....whoa

So, I graduated a couple weeks ago and it was a blast! I still can't believe it, I am so old! anyway, we had an all night graduation party at Boondocks and that was fun! uhhhh yeah....got to be quick today bye!

Life as we know it, or don't...

So, um, I don't really have much to write, but I'm on here so I thought I might as well give a little spiele. There's not much going on lately, I just took a beastly hard AP german test and my brain just about exploded, but I'm alive. My AP language one is on wednesday and you can pretty much say I'm going to fail already, I stink at english, don't know why I'm in the AP class lol. Oh, I take all that back, something cool did happen to me this weekend. So, me and my friend Court were downtown in American Fork and we saw that there was a movie being filmed at this old, abandoned school. We talked to this lady who was outside the set (who just happened to be Matt Mcguire's mom from the show Lizzie Mcguire) and she got us in to the set. We met this Matt Mcguire kid, along with the director and a bunch of other cool people. So we pretty much just got to chill with the director and see how everything was done, it was AWESOME!!! I want to be in filmmaking when I grow up so it was like a dream come true! anyway, ya'll are probably sick of me blabbing so I'll go,
see ya!

Guinea Pig Blog

Hola folks!
Kaitlin here, Grandma gave me the lovely little assignment of blogging for our family. Well, here I am, and I'm not quite sure how this works.......lol I suppose I'll give you a family update:
Let's start with Ethan....Ethan...now that's a story. He's a pretty funny kid :D , he's always cracking us up, well at least me haha... well now he's starting to lose all of his teeth so he looks sort of like a toothless old man, a pretty cute old man though. Moving on... Emme is having a blast with school, she's always coming home with a new story. She and Ethan have adjusted really well to our move to pleasant grove, they both made friends very quickly. Hayden moved into manhood as of late, just so ya'll know, he shaves his little peach fuzz now, cute huh? He's also really quite obnoxious, but my mom says it's just a stage, and I'm crossing my fingers.....hehe. I guess its my turn, um, just getting ready to graduate, loads and loads of homework... I just went to prom last week and it was a BLAST! I've also been traveling a lot, I went to New York with the marching band to perform in the Macy's thanksgiving day parade and I went to Mexico over spring break...whew! As for my parents, my dad just graduated with his masters degree from BYU, so that's pretty exciting. My mom, she's just been working. A lot. She also recently taught a lesson in relief society and SURVIVED! pretty hard to do, if you ask me.
Well, I'm out,
Kat
