"And how about a hotdog for the table? You'll go in on that with us, won't you Mom?"

I have been a negligent blogger!! I'm sorry! It has been BUSY in the...4 weeks since Brooke's wedding (wow, I cannot believe it's been 4 weeks!) So, let me give you some highlights....

• BYU Catering has been really picking up the business so it finally feels like I have a job again! In the past month I have eaten: 3 steaks, the best augrauten potatoes in the world, honey mustard chicken, shrimp, 2 bbq chickens, chicken cordon bleu, cheesecake, coconut cake, carrot cake, pink cake that was delicious, you get the point...it's been some great free food :)
• Went to see I am Number 4 with Sam and Emily (such a wonderful movie and an amazing book!! Highly recommended!! Plus the main guy is way attractive...)
• Had a fun visit from Brother and Sister Standage and Stella! We got to go to my fave Mexican Restaurant place in Provo (it's autentic!)
• Watched the Veronica Mars series, obviously I was busy :) It was very good and I definitely recommend it even though the ending was disappointing because I think they thought they were gonna have another season, so it didn't really end
  
• Had a way fun visit from Aunt Mae and RaeAnn!! We went to Zupas with Emily and Sam (where RaeAnn became one of Sam's favorite people, haha), stayed in a hotel, went shopping in SLC (where I got the cutest outfit), ate a lot of very yummy food, went to Aunt Cheryl's Surprise Party, and...saw the vitamixer guy!!! (RaeAnn getting her sweet snowball revenge on Aunt Mae at Lowe's)
  
• Got to talk to Chandler on the phone for the first time in 2 years!!! Yeah!! My first friend to come home from a mission!!! (don't worry, he's not super awkward :) )
• Had a "Welcome to Utah" party for Justin at Emily and Sam's (of course the picture isn't with Justin! haha)
• Wrote the most serious essay of this semester...14 pages on Herman Melville! That has been occupying all of my brain space for like the past 3 weeks, but I am almost done with the final now and then I can turn it in and hopefully be happy with life :)
• Took all of my midterms!! (believe it or not, D&C was the hardest)
• Went to Olive Garden with Justin and the Miller's for Sam and Katherine's birthdays (but that wasn't the only Olive Garden trip in the last month...I also went with my future roomies: Lauren and Brianna)
• Finally went to J-Dawg's!! (hence the hot dog themed title)
  
• Got in a cart accident at work...it was tragic (mostly for my shoes and my tights)
• and tonight I have a Girl's Night planned with all the G-dale girls! Should be fun :) (I mean...there will be chex mix, so...)
