Finals :(

I can't believe it's already finals week!! This is when I'm really regretting not doing all the reading homework for my classes but if I get through these next four days of torture I get to come home!! I'm really not excited for some of these test though, I have five, yes five finals in three days. Talk about ridiculous! But I'm really excited to come home thursday night and then on friday I get to see the MC girls basketball team and saturday were going to the USU bowl game :)!!!!! So let the fun begin . . .

~Greatest Uncle and Aunt Award~

Alright sorry guys this post is a little bit old but it was a lot of fun so I'm still going to write about it. When I came out to Virginia my parents told me that I wouldn't be able to fly home for Thanksgiving and so the only time I would be able to come home was for Christmas. This is what I had been planning on my whole time here until I got a surprise text from my Uncle Cody. Cody told me that he wanted to fly me home for Thankgiving and surprise everyone. At first it was just going to be our secret but we had to tell a few people along the way haha. I was SSSSOOOO excited!!! I really needed a trip home and it was so fun to surprise everyone who didn't know including my mom and the rest of my family, Kilee, Perri, and Hannah.

First I surprised my family at Thanksgiving dinner. My Grandpa picked me up from the airport and drove me to my aunt's house where I used my uncles Ipad to skype my family. They all thought I was skyping them from Virginia until I asked them if they wanted to see where I was eating Thanksgiving dinner and then I turned the camera so they could see my aunts house. They all screamed and ran outside. It was SO much fun!! After we ate dinner and then surprised my Dad's family I couldn't wait to get home to surprise my friends.

First I went to Kilee's where I just walked into her front room where her and her family were sitting. Her face was so priceless!! She was completely shocked and after a lot of explaining and a little bit of apologizing for lying she seemed pretty happy I was home. Then we went over to Dani and Perri's. Dani knew I was coming so she came outside to meet me and after we talked for awhile she went inside and started videoing perri. When I walked in Perri threw the chips that were in her hand down and walked out crying. I was a little bit confused but after chasing her into the next room she seemed really excited too!! That night we all had a sleepover and went black friday shopping and the next day I was able to go get ice cream with my friend Paige, and then later with the softball girl where we surprised Hannah because she didn't know I was coming. It was so much fun to see all my friends and family. I had missed them so much!!

So I owe a HUGE thank you to my Uncle!! Thanks Cody your the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And thank you to my Grandpa for picking me up, my Grandma and Aunt Donna for their help, and Mathew Thurber for letting me stay with him, you guys are awesome!!

*~Birthday~*

So November 20th was my 19th birthday and it was a little weird since it was my first one away from home. It was a lot of fun though! Rylie's birthday is on November 23rd so we decided to have a big combined birthday party. We had cake, ice cream, music, and food and it turned out really good!! Rylie gave me earrings, a ring, and a scarf for my birthday and I gave her the movie Anastasia (because she is obsessed) and a chargers teddy bear. I also got a pair of toms :) and a new phone from my parents!! And it was a ton of fun getting packages and letters from my brothers, family and friends in the mail!!
