365 Days

One year later, it still gets better every day. Thank goodness we have forever left to go! :)

I sure do love this guy.

Let it Snow (Rain)!

Trevor sings this song to me (minus the rain part) year round- and now he can finally sing it and it fits the season! I love it. However, we are in Vegas, where it rarely snows... but it's been raining the whole time!

We love the freedom...

UNLV Game

Trevor's face... hahaha.

It's a Wonderful Life

Okay okay... so I can't stop with the cheesy Christmas titles... just embrace it.

Another semester of finals is now successfully completed!

(Trevor still has one more... he likes to drag it out to the bitter end... my attention span is far to short for that.)

And that means:

Work tonight,

Followed by cleaning the house

Packing

Taking down the Christmas decorations (because it's really depressing to have to take them down after Christmas, and we won't be back until after New Year's) 

And tomorrow, LAS VEGAS!

Where we will play for two whole weeks :)

We are so SO excited! We plan on

lots of sibling time (significant others included)

8 hour nights of sleep

movies

no school

no work

hot dates

*our first Christmas*

*our first anniversary*

and who knows what other kinds of shenanigans?

For now, it's all I can do to not bug Trevor while he's studying...

A common scene.

Best part: he doesn't even try to get rid of me. :)

Baby, It's Cold Outside!

Good news: we survived the week before finals! From here, it's cake (not)... but only a matter of time until it's all done.

Otherwise,

Trevor is officially in the Athletic Training program for next semester!

I got my hair cut! ... really not too different, just some more layers. I love it.

I threw my first bridal shower! SO excited for the girls getting married!

We leave for Las Vegas in approximately 6 days!

And we had a very festive weekend:

Ward Christmas party: burritos and dodgeball.

Temple Square with Jeff and Kiley!

SO pretty!

Our first time seeing the lights together... romantic.

I love my man :)

The End Is Near.

It's here. 

The week when everything is due.

The days when those month-away deadlines are not creeping up on me anymore...

They already crept.

In fact, they are sitting right next to me.

The days I realize that I only have 4 more days of class.

4 days of everything. being. due.

And after that...

Relief, you may think?

Oh, no.

No no no.

A fantastically fun week filled with exams every day.

Time to put it all out there.

There is no more saving of the grades after a not-so-fabulous test score.

This test IS the potential grade saver.

Now, contrary to popular opinion,

I don't mind finals week NEARLY as much as the week before. 

I'm not lying when I say that I have had semesters where EVERY CLASS had an exam the week before finals.

Thankfully, thankfully, this is not the case this semester.

This semester I just have a thousand things to finish before Thursday.

Fine, fine, I'll finish it on time I'm sure, and then it will all be over

(except not. because the next week is finals).

My only wish is to make it until next Thursday at midnight.

After that, I can handle the exams.

One a day for 5 days... 

Get it done and check it off the list.

And the best part?

After the end of the exams is the BEGINNING of the break!

2 weeks in Las Vegas with nothing we have to do...

Heavenly.

But right now... it is only the beginning of the end.

Here we go...

In other news:

He clearly likes it when I bug him to smile for a picture while he's doing his homework.

Holly Cookies! Usually they are green, but I have no food coloring. Also, I learned that you're supposed to scoop them with a spoon, not your hands.

I learned the spoon thing after I finished scooping them all with my hands.

Our house is festive!!!!
