.the ponytail palm.

When i saw this plant at the store it reminded me of dr. suess' fantastical world. since i love all things fantastical, i bought it. even though i have nowhere to keep it.
im not good at keeping things alive so i did some research on it and oh my goodness! i found a photo of a 30 year old one that was in "bloom" and when i said the small one reminded me of dr suess it is nothing compared to this one!!!!!! soo cool and completely unique!

.my bad julia.

Ali is getting married November 7th. FYI

.my best friends wedding.

My bff Ali T. (lives in idaho) is officially engaged!!! YAHOO!! im so excited for her!! His name is Brian Childs. They are planning for the beginning of next year in salt lake. so keriann you can expect me to be visiting!

.i love getting mail.

I got my macbook laptop today, and Hayden got his desktop!!! Mine is black, i really like it! Its so different than microsoft and its frustrating to have to practically relearn how to use a computer, but im getting there. It comes with a video chatting program so hayden and i were learning how to use them together over video in our rooms. It was fun. everyone should get a mac so we can video chat together! Its exciting. We each got an ipod touch too. Those are super cool cuz you can have music movies and photos plus you can access wireless internet from them! geez apple should pay me advertising fees for this blog! anyway, im excited for my cool new toys!
NOTE: if you click on the name Springbrook Homes in my last post it will take you to their homepage! i think thats neat!

.Sorry Keriann!.

Finally a new post.
I started a new job on monday! Thats always exciting and scary! Im working for a company called Springbrook Homes. part of the time im a receptionist and the other part i do financial data entry. i almost cried my first day because i was so overwhelmed. I got more comfortable by the end of the week, but i still have a lot to learn! my favorite part is that i get to work with my bff crystal a few days a week! that makes it majorly enjoyable. Plus i get paid more than my last job!! kaching!

.zebra.

So the other day i was bored and painting my nails but i couldnt decide what color. well i just so happened to be wearing my zebra belt and was inspired! too bad i can only use my right hand to paint my left with such precision, only one hand is painted. :) but it looks cool!!

.Florida.

Florida was so fun! We went to the beach, and i attempted to learn to surf which lasted about 10 minutes, the water was super cold but naturally the beach was beautiful! We also took the boat out on a lake at night to stalk gators which was frightening! I already miss being around my cousins, i love the brutal honesty of saying whats on their mind no matter who is around! Westin is going to be a wonderful missionary, he already shares his testimony with people and everyone knows exactly what he stands for.
