Football Games, Kidney Stones and Awards!

So basically I am writing this post to put off doing more important things.  I decided to look at my old journals again and I got caught up in them.  Here are a few more entries from my journals. 

August 14, 1996 (This is talking about our move from Minnesota to Oklahoma)
"We rented a 26 foot long truck and on the way down we stopped in Des Moines and my dad had to go to the hospital because he had a kidney stone and he was really hurting.  We stayed at the Best Inns in America hotel.  It was really nice... [at the end of the journal entry] Oh yeah my dads kidney stone passed about a week ago."

October 20, 1996
"Dad, Kristina, Peter, Matt, and I went to the BYU-Tulsa football game yesterday and BYU won 55 to 30.  It was awesome. Towards the end of the game it started thundering, lightning, and raining.  But we stayed there the whole game.  A lot of people left before the game ended."

October 21, 1996 
"At the game on Saturday against Tulsa and BYU my dad got to sit up in the press box.  He got to sit up in the press box because he was a spotter for KSL radio station in Salt Lake City, Utah.  What he did was figure out who has the ball etc for the radio person."

November 24, 1996  (This is talking about when Peter left Oklahoma to go to the MTC)
"My mom surprised Peter when he got to the Salt Lake airport.  Because Peter was leaving on the plane on United Airlines to Denver then on to Salt Lake.  Mom was leaving on the plane to Salt Lake non-stop on Delta.  Peter had no idea my mom was going to be there."

June 12, 1997
"I got 5 awards from school.  I got an English, American History, Math, renaissance, and golden attitude award.  The Golden attitude award is really cool because it is a plaque.  I feel really smart with it although I'm not very smart.  Well, I guess I got only 2 B's and the rest were A's for the whole 7th grade school year."

I think that's all for now.  I should probably work on those other more important things now ;)  I write these journal entries mainly to bring back memories but also to laugh about what I wrote when I was younger!  I hope you enjoyed some more trips down memory lane :)

My Sweet New Digs!

 I've had a few requests to see my bedroom.  Now that I have my chest of drawers in here and everything put away, here are some pictures of my awesome little room!

 I seriously love it!  It's my own room!  Look at those awesome built in shelves all along the wall under the window.

 My closet with my shoes on it! And one of my Ikea lamps!

 Look at my other awesome Ikea lamp!

I love this little lamp; it matches my bedspread and adds a little color to the room :)

Guess what?!   Guess what?!  Guess what?!  I moved into a town home yesterday with some LDS girls from the Langley Ward.    Guess who is really excited?!!!!!  ME ME ME ME ME ME!  

I feel good about the move.  And I think my roommates are really cool... so far :)   It's good for me to be more in the social scene.  I heard that in the little neighborhood that I live in there are a few houses of LDS people from the Langley Ward. 

Well I think that's all!  Be excited for me!
