Where does time go?

                                                                  There coming for us!
                                                                 Coolest Indians ever!
                                                          Katie, Nancee, and I at twilight
                                      Me, Casey, and Em at twilight... yes I am wearing a twilight shirt
                                                    Casey sleeping before the movie started
So I was doing so well at the start of November and then I don't know what happened. School took over my life and well Casey and I have been going to a lot of Jazz games lately, which has been so much fun! Also Twilight came out!!! It was amazing, Katie Bell, my mom, Em, Casey and I scored some tickets for a 12:15 AM showing. We went to the theatre at 8 or 9 to get good seats, we are die hards, the best part is, the movie started and we watched all the previews then the movie finally starts and the sound goes out.... words can not describe how angry we all were, some how the sound comes back on everyone in the theatre goes quite and then the lights in the room goes on... movie still going the crowd is so angry the manager comes in and says we are all so sorry and we will restart the movie for you, we have to roll the film back by hand so you'll see some of the previews again. Katie looks at the time and its now 1 AM.. She starts putting on her jacket and saying if more then one preview is shown again I'm leaving. hahaha. Good thing they only showed one preview and then the movie, needless to say it was amazing! I'm in love with the whole male cast of twilight, not even one boy in the movie was ugly :) we all went again (except my mom cause she was paking, and she was super sad to miss it) Chi Omega had a meeting where we dressed for Thanksgiving, Laurens mom and I made these awesome costumes, we are Indians if you can't tell haha Then we went to New York for thanksgiving, we saw some awesome broadway plays, my favorite was The Little Mermaid! So amazing the people the costumes were unbelievable! My birthday was the 28th... Im now 22, which is well not different from 21 really. Now it's almost finals and well I'm schooling hard now. Today in my yoga class I taught everybody ballet, best time of my life, but since i should be writing my paper for sociology I will explain later. love you all

XOXO   

(Sorry for my spelling and but its late and I don't care and have no time to look over this :) love ya all!!)

The weekend of sports and fun!

So Friday Casey and I decided that we wanted to go to the Jazz game, so I went and bought tickets... who knew they were a little bit on the expensive side? We payed 30 dollars a ticket and sat in the upper bowl, But it honestly was so much fun. We got on the big screen twice!! and each time Casey was so embarrassed, she would try to hide haha. And after the jazz won (1,000 wins for Jerry Sloan) we waited in line for about 2 hours to get Kyle Kourver autograph, while waiting we were super entertaining, always laughing and when we got up to kyle, Casey and Emilee just laughed and didn't really say much to him and me being completely awesome I started chatting with him... " Hey kyle you look super happy to be here, thank you so much for staying after the game so we could meet you!" He looked so confused, why would she be talking to me.... and said "Um... yeah... thanks.." I just laughed and walked away, it was way fun! 

Saturday my dad told me we had tickets to the USA v. Uruguay Rugby match. And since I love Rugby, Emilee and I decided to go. We invited Casey but she was busy writing a paper, we invited some other people but no one wanted or could go. So we go and get there late cause I had an appointment but when riding the elevator we meet 3 very pretty men who were on the Uruguay team. One of them told us that we smelled like Cheerios, I said we try to impress! such good times, the game was really cool, the US won!  Then Em and I went to a baptism for one of are Chi Omega pledge sisters, which was such a fun and exciting experience. All and all it was a way fun weekend! More to come!

Reasons we are besties!

As Elise previously mentioned, we got into a bit of a tiffy over her tardiness. I love her dearly and quickly got over it. The Howl was.... interesting. I think people in Logan just don't have a whole lot going on! My little sister dressed as a playboy bunny. Enough said. And forced me to wear a pleather ensemble. We had a great time after though, and didn't get home until 4:30 in the MORNING (both sets of parents were displeased).

In case many of you didn't know, last night was a historic evening. No, not Obama winning (that was a couple of nights ago), but it was Jerry Sloan's 1000th win with the Utah Jazz. AN NBA RECORD!!! Elise, Em and I had a total blast and ran into Warner and Fuzz at the game. However, the best part of the evening was the Kyle Korver autograph session. We waited over TWO hours to get a signature (I drove, so Elise and Emilee couldn't escape) and died laughing the whole time. Behind us in line was some girl who was near tears she was so excited.

Anywho, we are looking forward to more adventures! Let us know if you have any ideas!

Thanksgiving has feelings too!! 2

I forgot a pic of my awesome Halloween costume... enjoy haha

love ya all!

Xoxo

Thanksgiving has feelings too!!

Hey friends! So its been a bit, lets update. Shindig was freaking awesome. The decorations turned out really cute I loved the lights, and the wild flowers we put everywhere and the pumpkins are a perfect touch. The food was bomb, I was the most shocked cause i helped and it didn't turn out bad at all, everyone loved it. My date was Collin and I had so much fun, we danced every dance and he even helped clean up... Perfect date! The after activity was so much fun Collin, Casey, Nick and I went to the Sig house to play Karaoke. And no joke Nick, Collin, Casey and I were all really good which made it super fun hahaha!
So there of pictures of Casey and I with some friends for ChiO Halloween. Everyone had to dress up as a nursery rhyme all example all the pledges were sheep and the pledge trainer was little bow peep. So cute. So Shantel and Casey were Little Red Riding Hood and I was the Big Bad Wolf.... I know we are so cool!
Halloween was... well interesting :) So I lost track of time and so I was indeed 40 minutes late getting to the ChiO. And we I'm pretty sure I went 80 at lest of the freeway. Casey hates being late, she believes it is very rude, which is very true. But things happen and this was the first time in the history of Casey and mine friendship that we fought and we had silence in the car for like 30 or so minutes. It was so sad! But we got to Logan even though I missed the exit by 13 miles or so... So funny hahaha. and then we went to the howl and to be honest it wasn't as cool as we all thought it would be. But I honestly had the best costume ever! I was beach barbie (Shorts and a tank top = beach haha) And I had a pink barbie box around me! So we stayed for a bit and then we drove home and went and played at the Sig house till the early morning.
But now we have a fantastic Holiday coming up... and if you're thinking Christmas I will be angry, and call you my parents. Everyone just forgets Thanksgiving. People come on now! I just dont understand why people decorate there house and listen to christmas music before Thanksgiving is over. My parents are the worst at this, my dad listens to Christmas music the day after Halloween and the decorate the house like 2 weeks before Thanksgiving. Drives me crazy. So make sure to celebrate Thanksgiving (Hence my awesome back ground haha)
Well friends Im off to the blackout game... Go UTES!
XOXO

Oh Sweet Jesus.

So, right now Elise, Emilee and I are at my little sister's apartment in Logan. All I have to say, is now I understand why she is moving back home. Her puppy is running wild eating shoes and hairbrushes, while we wait for her to finish getting ready for the Howl. I love her very much. Today was an eventful one, as Elise was forty minutes late getting to the CHI-O, and we went 13 miles in the wrong direction... it was lovely.


<3 you, will report later.
Casey

Pumpkins... way harder to carve then they once where

So when you are a child, carving pumpkins is the what you look forward to just as much as getting free candy. Now when you are little your parents the get top off, and get all the guts out and they help you carve the hard an intricate parts... Now for a sorority dance (shin dig, which is this Friday) I have been put in charge of the decorations and for the outside, and inside of the chio and all the tables and plates and forks and things, and center pieces and don't go over the budget... which is very small for this kind of job.... But no worries I rock and it will be amazing. So I decided to carve Chi Omega SHIN DIG (but Chi Omega in Greek letters of course) I asked my mom if we could start this amazing adventure her at my house and she replied with a "Hell NO, well maybe outside.. in the cold hahah" She wasn't joking. So Lauren and I went and bought 10 huge pumpkins and printed out letters, that was the easy part. We even bought electric carvers.. Maybe the coolest thing about this adventure haha, Really every house hold should own at lest one... We went to her house to carve, We made her brother Jake get the tops off, cause we didn't really know how, and started to get all the stuff out of them... Then we started asking , who is the genius that invented this tradition? Who honestly looks at a pumpkin and thinks, I'm going to get all the stuff out of it and carve something in it? Its super gross and hard to get all the guts out, it really takes for ever to make them clean enough to put candles in them, and well Lauren didn't really care so she'd get a lot out and start carving, and em and I would go and re clean them after she was done... :) and after I did two pumpkins my arm was tired, so was Lauren, and Em was still cleaning out her first pumpkin, I think it was her plan to not have to do that many. It looked like we'd need some help, We called Andy Jones, who we owe a lot to! After he came over I took on a way hard letter.. G... This was not my smartest idea haha. I  wasn't really being careful, I was very into singing NSYNC songs and Britney Spears... I ended up breaking the shape and so i just looked like a giant whole. Angry doesn't even begin to describe how pissed I was, luckily Lauren and I bought an extra one for this very purpose. And super lucky that Andy is like a professional at carving hard things in pumpkins and he did the D,and G and drew the X and the Omega and carved most of them, he saved the day. We ended this pumpkin mania at 1:30 AM!!! I honestly can say I would not like to carve pumpkins anytime soon.

Well bloggers I'm off to help Lauren cook most the food we are eating tomorrow at the dance. 

XOXO

Life.... And wisdom teeth haha

Hey friends! Its been a while since I have blogged, Let's update you all on my exciting life haha. Well I went to Paris for ten days. It was honestly one of the coolest places I have been in my life. I loved it there, by the end I was asking to move there. Mom was super ready to go home by the end of the ten days. She was only truly excited when she called my dad in Euro Disney. I have never seen her so happy, it was so cute. Anywho We saw everything there was to see because of are amazing driver... Tibo! This man put up with mom,em and me and just fit right in with our family. We saw him at lest once a day, it didn't even matter if he was driving us anywhere. I miss him haha. But honestly everywhere you look it was beautiful, and the museums where absolutely amazing.... Well then em and I started school, Im actually loving my classes and em is so lost cause its not as demanding as Waterford. Then Rush week came and thats when I lost my life. It took over life, but it was fun and different cause em decided to rush! Bid day was so much fun! Emilee is now a Chi Omega!! Can I get a hoot hoot? then as soon as life started to calm down, my sweet mom reminded me my wisdom teeth were coming out this friday. Now you know me, I hate surgery. But it happened yesterday and it went well, but no one told me how sore my mouth would be! But they told me to be relaxed which I have no problems with right now. hahaha love you all!

        -Xoxo, Elise

Chi Omega, yours forever...

Today is the big day! BID DAY!

I honestly couldn't sleep last night I was so excited. Yesterday Elise, Emilee, Nancee and I went to Five Guys for lunch and we couldn't stop laughing. I can't wait for Em to join us in the bonds of sisterhood! Everyday I've been getting more and more anxious. These cute Highland girls (Maria, Sam, and Kate) are going through recruitment and I hope beyond hope they will end up in Chi O. Other than that, I only know of a handful of other girls going through, but I am definitely getting good vibes about the Fall '08 pledge class. Elise and I talk every night about the girls we are obsessed with, and it's so sad because I can't be there to vote! But I trust Elise and my other girls to make the right decision.

Will update later....

XOXO,
Gossip Girl

Rush Week!

Hey Everybody!

If you are wondering where Elise is, she's been extremely busy with recruitment. For example, she called me at 12:30 last night and was just barely driving home. I don't exactly remember the conversation we had, because I think i was sleep-talking. This week has been seriously SO crazy. I miss my bestie and hate that we have to be apart.... but Thursday we shall be together again!!!

Also, many of you may not know this, but our dearest friend Beth left last Thursday to go to Ecuador to teach English to orphans. She's such a great person and we miss her very much. Now I have to find a backup date to Shindig!

Anywho, gotta go!
Casey

It's been a while......

So every time I look at this awesome blog I think “ Um….. I should really update this.” But Casey and I never sit down to write; yes I guess we are lazy. But thanks to my dear friend Amy, who told me “ She is SO sick of looking at the blog and seeing “Hello from the happiest place on earth” And I have to fix it hahaha, thank you Amy

 

Well lets fill you all in…. I got home from a fantastic California vacation, honestly two weeks in California is perfect. I got home and Casey left the next day for her 14-day safari in Africa! How crazy cool is that? Then my mom decided to tell me that she had scheduled my nose surgery for the next week and there is no way to get of it. (I had already gotten out of it 3 other times) As you can probably guess I didn’t take that very well. I hate the idea of surgery and being knocked out… ewww it still creeps me out. But I had to get it fixed cause it has been broken for so long, I cant remember the last time I actually got air from my nose hahaha. So for the last couple of weeks I have been recovering which was super fun for my family. The pain pills made me super loopy and I really don’t remember the first week after my surgery. I heard that I fainted twice and was very weird, but now I’m off the painkillers and back to my normal self and I can smell things, which is so crazy! But I love it.

Other then that it’s been kind of boring around here, but we have found great things to keep us busy….. The Office and anything that airs on bravo. Casey, Emilee, Lauren and I also have a newfound love for Spoon Me, now if you haven’t been to this fantastic frozen yogurt place you must go. All of us go once a day when we aren’t reading Breaking dawn the new twilight book. We finally have all finished it and by far it’s all are favorite book right now. For those of you that have read I you should call me cause I never get sick of talking about it!  Others do…. And while Casey left us to go boating with her family and Lauren is in California with her family (Love you Lauren) Emilee and I have found our callings in life… We are starting a band and we owe it all to ROCKBAND! Emilee is a natural born drummer and Billy is to great for his own good on the guitar and well I excel at the bass and Emilee and I switch off on being the singer. (Katie, I’m still in your band too J)  What can I say we are pretty damn good.

 

Well for now that’s my story, OH 1 more things…. Emilee, my mom, and I are heading to PARIS this Monday and get home the 21^st. You could say that I was excited, but that would be a super big understatement. I can’t even believe we are going. Its going to be so cool, I have no idea how we are going to see everything we want to see in 10 days but you know us, we’ll make it work. And I will be bloging while I’m there (if I have an internet connection) 

 Casey gets home from her boating trip tomorrow and I will try and convince her to blog about her life, but we all know that you cant make Casey do anything she doesn’t want to, That’s why we love her.

 

Well I love you all and hope that everyone is living the last moments of summer to the fullest!

            XOXO

 

Hello from the happiest place on earth!

So since the last post, Casey got in her mind that the Aquarium would be the best trip ever! So the day before I left for California Casey, Billy, Emilee, and I headed to the Utah living Aquarium. Now when you pull up to the living Aquarium, you immediately think this place is ghetto and has probably been shut down for years...... But needless to say we pressed forward. We payed and started out in the Utah section.... They showed us trout and other such fish you can catch here in Utah, Emilee was less then amused... "If I wanted to see these fish I could just walk outside and look in the pond, and I don't have to pay for that." hahahaha. Then we got to the really cool stuff, Jellyfish, octopus, star fish and Caseys favorite.. Sea Horses! It ended up being pretty fun.... We thank Casey for the ghetto fabulous experience! 

Now Im in California with the family, the first thing we do when we land is head to In-N-Out. It was amazing as always. This trip has been the ultra relaxing! We swim, eat, shop, and watch movies.... Its a hard life :) Now we are staying in Disneyland hotel (Where it has air conditioning... it's shear bliss!) And since we got to the hotel later then planned we decided to do a family movie night. We went and saw WALL*E. Now I love anything Disney, but this movie was honestly so funny! It had the whole family laughing (Thats hard to do) and in the end me and my dad were crying hahaha, shocking to anyone that knows me. Well we are headed to bed, but we miss you all! 

XOXO, haha still no sign off name......

Summer is just starting!

Little bro, Peanut, Slasher
     Lauren,Elise,Emilee at the Blaze game
 Emilee,Billy,Dad.... right after a Blaze player almost crashed into ems lap haha!

So as you have heard, I have been making people do fun and exciting things here in the SLC. Even though everyone complains the whole way to these super fun and exciting places. Well since I've last bloged, Emilee graduated high school. She looked so beautiful, she is going to the U of U this fall and you know me and casey are so making her rush :) Since she has graduated she has been at a complete loss of what she should be doing this summer. Usually she has summer reading to do and other school work, now she's free and loving it, but you can tell its hard for her. Yes we are so pretty!

Emilee and her Waterford Diploma

Emilee, Lauren, and I went to the last Blaze game. Casey was invited but she was to busy studying for her lame ass summer classes! When will it end I ask everyday! So when we pulled in and payed for parking the guy said I had to back into the spot... this is a problem, I'm not good at that sort of thing.... So the creepy old man told me that he would guide me in. He wasn't the best man for the job, he kept yelling 'harder, harder', Lauren and myself added thats what she said hahaha, then he yelled 'turn harder'... needless to say we were all dying of laughter. And he was less then happy with me.We finally parked the car and went into the game. The game was amazing! We actually won the game! And then we had three little boys sitting behind us.. nickname slasher, little bro, and peanut. They might have been the best part of the game. always trying to get us to talk to them instead of watching the game. They were so fantastic!! Over all good times were had.... The pictures of the Blaze game are at the top, Im not going to lie, I tried to get them to move down here and well that didn't happen.... haha! Well we are off to are next adventure.... 

XOXO One Tree Hill.... Oh I get why Casey put Gossip Girl.....  (Soon to come up with an amazing sign off name, Anyone have one for me?)

Hell on Earth

These past couple of weeks have been quite exciting. We went to see the Sex and the City movie (which Elise and I bawled through the entire time), and it was fantastic. Also we've seen Iron Man which dominates the superhero movie realm. Elise has been busy doing God-knows-what and I have been dying going to school and work all the goddamn time. We have successfully ruined Libby's date by intruding the Browning house, and met a super hot movie producer guy named Joe (hahahahahahahahahahahaha). Elise finally met the always entertaining Emily Matthews, and they fell in love. As a continuation of making me do multiple things that I didn't want to do, Elise, Emilee and I traveled to Color Me Mine. At this locale, screaming children were frolicking all over covered in paint. We all made mugs, Emilee's resembling that of a Pottery Barn creation, and mine being a Father's Day gift for Pooh Bear. It ended up being really fun (gasp!) and Craiggers was thrilled with his present. Last weekend we went bowling with SATAN and her cohorts. Thankfully Brit came and rescued us from Hell. Last night, Cocoa, Stephy, Elise, Em and I all went to a really random house and made a bonfire to roast marshmallows. Typically, the trio of us would have never participated in such an activity, but since we all love the Cocoa, we obliged. Court and Steph made a really wimpy fire and we could hardly roast the effing marshmallows.

XOXO,

Gossip Girl 

Here is a picture from bowling night! We all look super hott!

Ellie,Casey,Lauren,Elise,Collin

Cake gone wrong!

So when making a cake, the ingredents are very important.... And I didnt miss any... congrats to me. Then I poured it into the pan and we cooked it. Then we bloged are last post. When went to get the cake out of the cupcake pan... it wasnt coming out... Em and Casey asked me how much pam I put in it... I said, I guess not enough... Ten minutes later they asked me again... How much pam did you put in it? And I started laughing and told them the news... I had forgotten the PAM! It came out in in parts, We are now making a new one, Im not allowed near it. Casey put enough pam in for the world! But I bet ya it comes out easy :) haha.

The picture is the pan that hates when it doesn't get its pam.

Dropping like Bees!

So on Friday May 23,2008 Collin texted me and asked if a bunch of us would like to go to a baseball game, I enjoy baseball and it sounded like fun.. I texted Casey,Lauren, & Kelsi. Kelsi was already going and Lauren was working (Shocker) and when I asked Casey, she gave that a solid no, little to her dismay she made it to her very first baseball game, Which I insured her would be one of the funest times of her life.... We got there and Collin asked if we had brought a blanket, we didnt understand the question... Why would we need a blanket? On thats cause we were siting on the grass.... Pretty sure we went and bought a blanket which ended up saving our lifes.

(Casey typing now) No, not a Bees blanket, but a Jazz blanket (we wanted one of a team we actually liked). Pretty sure that we found the ugliest family in the world at the bees game (key word: Magna). Did you know that there are nine innings in a baseball game? But there are fantastic fireworks after! Hahahaha, so the game wasn't really fun, so Elise will now have karma bite her in the ass mwahahaha. The Bees put on a good performance, we lost 17-4. So today I went to church with the Madsen clan to watch Emily speak and she did a most excellent job (Shout out to Em!). Bill later told me that I will soon be moving into the middle bedroom of the house. ( Elise typing now) Casey loved the baseball game, I have decided that major league baseball is better then the minors. Now after ems amazing talk we went to cheesecake and now we are baking (breath its real) cakes and brownies... both are favs. while baking we are watching you tube and bloging of course. But if you haven't seen the Taylor Swift Live go to this and watch right now! Its amazing!! You will die!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArGFNYrazCU

Well people we have to go frost are goodies now,but we love all and will write soon!

Casey and Elise in full force!

Here we are chillin in the den with my little dog (who is SO spoiled) Spark.... And my amazing little siter Emilee. Talking about American Idol. Who will win and how many times we voted for David A. haha Emilee and my mom Nancee voted 20 times.. yes thats correct and Caseys mom and grandma voted once each. We are that cool... haha! Casey went to most her classes today, lets take a moment to clap it out! We are all proud!! And I went to work... Its a red letter day haha.... Here is casey... Word. Collin put his number in my phone and listed it under "Sexy Can I." So fantastic! Watched a movie today in my gender studies class that was interesting. Can't tell what was more interesting, this video or the porn we had to watch last class. Went to lunch with Cocoa and Stephy.... Elise was a bitch and went out to lunch with Ryder instead.... He's such a puss. And hates my guts. Anywho, I should really go and catch up with nancee. Elise is in a time out for not being a good friend and she didn't tell SOMEONE that she DOESN'T like him, and he continues to be in love with her. So awkward. I want Randizzle to come home so he can hook it up with my bestie finally.

We have a blog!

Elise here.... I cant believe it, I finally figured out how to set one of these up, and its so cute!Ok so I'm such a nerd, but I totally feel like Carrie Bradshaw from sex in the city and I think that is half the appeal. And it took me so long to get it the way I want, that I don't have enough time to write cause I'm headed to Sunday dinner with my family. But I'm sure when Casey comes over today we will write more about the summer so far.....
