This Year in a Nutshell

Wow! This year is waving goodbye as next year peaks around the corner. As we say goodbye to 8 here are some things that happened that were great!
* I went to my first show in Salt Lake City! I saw the incredible Fleet Foxes.
* I went to my first Tuesday Fest, photographic evidence can be found on FB.
* I went to Hawaii with my family and good friend Amanda.
* My sister had her third baby, Audrey Ruth Allen.
* I sold knives.
* I went to an awesome tea party!
* I went horseback riding.
* My parents moved to a farm in Auburn and bought two chocolate lab puppies!
Some movies that I saw that were excellent (in no particular order)
* Secret Window
* Batman: The Dark Knight
* I'm Reed Fish
* Bella
* The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
* Ghost Town
* Kung Fu Panda
Some not so good things that happened

Scary!

I have many fears, ok not really. There are few things that actually scare me, like my niece I enjoy scary stuff. Hollywood movies and Halloween decorations do not scare me, only real life scares me. Here is a list of things that scare me:
*Being hit by a car. I actually have been hit by a car and about 3 people get hit at the crosswalk that I live near in Rexburg. Sometimes I get nerveous crossing that crosswalk and I start talking to myself and the car, well it isn't really talking I make this noise. I usually feel much safer j-walking.
*Being rear-ended by another car. This is not something I can really control and it has happened twice this year, in the same car! That's all I'm going to say about it for now, I will blog the story later!
* Going to the bathroom in the dark in a strange place. It would be difficult to defend myself if someone were to attack me.
* Squirrels scare me a lot. They are wild animals and are completely unpredictable and unintellegent.

The Hills are alive through you and I!

Every Sunday we have family dinner together. After dinner we sometimes play games, fight, sing or watch tv. This Sunday the Sound of Music was on. As a child my Grandmother watched me after school. Which meant I ended up watching a movie at her house, so I grew up on old movies and had a place for them in my heart ever since. I was excited when the movie came on because it is one of my favorites, but because of its length I do no watch it often. When my nice and nephew, who are 6 and 3, started talking about how they loved the "singing movie" my heart melted!
If you have not seen it, do! It is a classic! Here is a link to a trailer.

Christmas List!

Ok, so here's my Christmas list inspired by Harper Casimiro. This is just a random compilation of things that I think are cool in no particular order. It is not a list of demands.
