Pink is the New Blue

I usually get a light blue color for my braces in hopes of detracting attention from my teeth.  But then I decided that I can't hide all the metal in my mouth anyway- so I went a little crazy with my braces for spring and am enjoying pink rubberbands.

p.s. you can't tell from the picture, but they really are pink.

Thanks, Dr. C!

as of late

 

First, I hate blogspot.  It will not let me arrange pictures how I want.

Second, in list format, here are a few things we've been doing:

*We went to see Bear Hands, Mayor Hawthorne, and Passion Pit last night and had fun dancing

*I interviewed Bear Hands for inyourspeakers

*It is starting to look like spring again...cross your fingers

*I have approximately 3 pages of writing left in the semester and then finals

*Tanner started his spring term at school

Third, the most exciting news....I got a new bike!  I was surprised this morning when the UPS guy was at my door with a HUGE box.  I was even more confused when he said that box was addressed to Tanner. Well, Tanner surprised me and bought me a much-need bike for the spring and a summer - a cute mint green beach crusier to be exact.  The only problem is, the fork is a little bent, so we have to wait for a replacement part to be able to put it all together and ride it.  Regardless, it was the greatest surprise ever, so, thank you Tanner, you're the best.

inyourspeakers and more

I just recently started writing news pieces for a developing music website www.inyourspeakers.com.  So... check it out and you'll see some things I'm writing for them.  Pretty cool, and thanks to Erika for helping me out.

In other news...Tanner is on his break from school and I'm busy busy busy writing term papers due next week. But, summer is so soon (despite the snow and freezing temperatures today) and I can't wait.  Here's what I'm going to do this summer:

cook everything with every summer vegetable
have bbqs with friends
go to our complex pool everyday
sleep in
read lots of books
drink coke with crushed ice
explore utah county's hiking
roadtrip to california
go to havasupai
drink pink smoothies with whipped cream
roadtrip to all southern utah sites
and maybe the grand canyon

MMM....summer.
