Best movie ever!!

Dad is out of town for travel this week so mom, Jess and I treated ourselves to a movie!
oh my goodness my sister's keeper is the best movie ever! I cant even explain how good it is, you just need to go and watch it! The Baker girls definitely had some tears going on during the movie, but I think everyone else did too. It was a real eye opener to me and I am so thankful for everything I have in my life.

Fathers Day..

We ate at Wingers a while back and I was going through my camera looking at all my pictures and I thought I would post this one. Dad kept making this "duck" face while we were eating so I thought I would be just like him and pose :)
This one is just for you Lynds :) I finally get to post a picture of Jess's hair! She always is doing cute things with it!
Happy Fathers DAY!! Dad you mean so much to all of us! Thanks for everything you do! Grandpa Baker and Grandpa Topp we love you very much and hope you have a great day!

staying busy..

Well I have been staying super busy and not much time to post a whole lot! I keep forgetting to post this picture but Jess chopped her hair off a few weeks ago and its ADORABLE!!! I always see hair on everyone else that I love but when I try it, it never works and when I do try it (at school last year) I bawl after I cut it ha haaa. But I will get a picture so I can brag to everyone how adorable her hair is!!
My good friend Logan left for his mission last week. We all went out to ice cream one last time before he left! I have the bestest friends ever that I dont know what I would do without!!
Last week my friend Kelsey Foster got married, I wasnt able to make it to her reception but I bet she looked amazing and I'm so happy for her! Congrats Kels and Brent!

Jay had football camp last week in Pocatello and he looked pretty dead when I was able to see him! He is staying super busy with a different sport event every weekend!

Mom and I started up scrapbooking again to catch up on things while I am home, she always gives me a hard time that I will scrapbook up at school but when I am back home I wont help her out! It was fun to spend quality time with her again.

Dad has been staying extremely busy at work and keeping up with the yard, he keeps bragging that he fertilized it just in time with all this rain that it is going to look great. Now with all the rain he is outside trimming and cutting every night it seems like.

Jess is staying busy with work and her summer trig class. She took her first test on Monday and to motivate herself she keeps telling herself every time she does good on a test she will buy herself a new pair of shoes! ha ha what a great motivation for her!!

Last weekend we were able to spend some time with Aunt Jackie, Uncle Dan and Amber. Sounds like they are all staying pretty busy. Amber has her baby shower this weekend so we will see them again. She is getting pretty big and has a little less than a month til Bridger is out.

I'll try to post more when I do get the chance! Dad told Jess and I last night that we have about 2 months left! Summer is flying by, I cant believe I'll be starting school sooner than I know! AH!

Roast..

Definition of ROAST: like a toast, expressing ones feelings.

Okay so this is pretty embarrassing story and it shows how blonde Jess and I are when it comes to things at work. The other day at work a friend was having her last day and some other friends were putting on a little party for her. The posters said "Come join us for a roast and refreshments" Jess and I usually pack a lunch for work and the night before Jess and I decided we would just take lunch early and not pack one and eat roast and have refreshments with everyone else. Well when we got there everyone started talking about sandwiches so Jess and I gave each other a weird glance at each other but didnt say anything. Then the lady's started talking about sandwich orders, and one of the girls called it in to the wrong Jimmy Johns so she would be a little late picking up so start without her. So we started without the sandwiches and a manager got up and started talking about the lady leaving and how much the company will miss her and after he was close to finishing he said "now I would like to open the roast to anyone else" Jess and I looked at each other and started busting out. We left shortly after and laughed so hard we had to take a second to breath. So we were able to add a new vocabulary word to our self dictionary that when someone says they are having a roast, its not like a pork roast, its more like a toast. We were so embarrassed, but glad no one else picked on what we did.

I was pretty busy this weekend and wasnt stuck out in the rain, which was nice. Thursday night Cousin Travy graduated so we went to his ceremony.
Friday I went to Pocatello with Bonnie and Garry to watch Jay play in some basketball tournament. Its always nice to watch him play when I get the chance. When I go to his school games it makes me start to miss cheer a little bit. We all then met up with Lynds and Taylor for dinner. Its nice to be back at home to see everyone that I dont see much when I'm down at school.
Yesterday the family came down to Aunt Jackie's to celebrate Trav's graduation. It was nice to see everyone again, sounds like I will be seeing them all a lot this month with everything planned out. Last night Jay and I met up with his sister Rach and her husband Chris. It was so good to see them and visit for awhile. Sounds like Rach is doing good with her baby, she finds out in July what she is having, and as Lynds always says it better be a boy becauseshe is having the first girl :)

Jess and I started work last Monday so we are bums again, wake up for work, go to work, get off work, eat dinner, go walk the square, then bed time :) ha ha

Its so good to finally be back home and not be so busy!! Well now that Jess and I have started work we dont have too much time to do things, that is also why I'm posting my pictures finally from two weeks ago!! I didnt post pictures from the dance so Ill start there. I miss getting all dresses up for the night and feeling like a princess :( Jay was a great date and I had a blast wheeling and spending time with him!


I went to Arizona for a housing conference for ISU. I had a blast learning new things and I cant wait to bring back everything to housing next year. Alot of these pictures are with a good friend Abby that I met up at school last year, and one of my new roommates for this coming year!
When we first got on the campus at University of Arizona we just wanted to goof off since we were in the car for over a total 15 hours that day and the day before
The first night in the car we were able to make it to the Grand Canyon for sunset! Isnt it gorgeous!!

Pretty flowers we were amazed with the color on the campus!
How beautiful the entrance way to the Admin Building is..
We took a trolley around town on some our free time, which we didnt have much of!

Zion National Park
Weeping rock, we got soaked trying to get to this spot!
