Happy Halloween.

Happy Halloween everybody! I sure do love this holiday, and this month went by very speedy. Oct-Dec always go by too quick! The last few years Halloween has been on a weekend, so it was kind of annoying having it on a Monday. Jesse and I didn't go to school today, because Matt and Jake were calling us from the air port. They did give us kind of large time blocks, but not big enough that we didn't have to go to school. We could have gone to school part of the day and not missed their call, but we talked my mom into letting us stay home. :) Jake's phone call was really bad connection, I couldn't hear him very well. We talked for about 10 ish minutes though, and this is how our conversation ended.
Jake. : "Well, I'm calling from a pay phone and it's gonna cut out soon so if I don't---"
...it cut out! Haha but it was good. And Matt called earlier in the day, it was fun!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

La Clase de Espanol......

Okay. First of all, my teacher thinks that we read, write, and understand fluent spanish. Ummm. I don't. She showed a video in Spanish. Then gave us a 10 page packet with questions...in Spanish. That we have to answer in Spanish. And it's due tomorrow. First of all, even if I could understand the questions, I wouldn't know the right answers because I couldn't understand the video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And tomorrow is the last day of the term so this is just going to ruin my grade. So even though I am online translating the questions, I don't know the answers. Very frusterating. And the video is not on youtube, I checked. Frusterating!!!!

Aroma

You may think about it alot, and it may only cross your mind every once in a while. But one of the big things that sets the mood in your home in the smell! Whether it be cookies, a candle, sentsy, or pumpkin pie! Smell can also trigger back memories in your brain, and remind you of a time when you perhaps smelled that smell, or ate that food that you are smelling! Keep your home smelling nice with sentsy. Or if you want your kids to be in a good mood when they get home from school, have brownies in the oven baking!

Crate & Barrel

Salt Lake City is home to a brand new Crate and Barrel!!! Great store. So here is a little post on the store.
*Right now until Oct. 16 they are having a 15% sale on upholstery.
* They are having 30% off select knife sets and other cutlery offers.

Personally I am a fan of their patio furniture. I like that they have a good mix of furniture styles. Traditional to Contemporary and everything in between.

Fun Facts.
They have over 100 stores in every major North American Market.
They are in Dubai.
They got their name when one man started this store. After investing in products, and no money left for display, crates were stacked up for things to be displayed on them. And barrels were filled with fun merchandise.

UVU

Today all of the class officers and SBOs went up to UVU for a leadership conference. It was all day and it was really good. It was a lot of fun! There were SO many kids there from practically every school. Not just student government kids, there were FBLA, FCCLA, Madrigals, -Everyone who had some type of leadership position. I learned some great information.

On a side note, I have been waking up at 4 this week to go to stupid drivers ed. Most boring thing in my life. Me and Jesse go from 5-7 and switch off every 30 minutes about. This morning it was raining and for some reason there were alot of cars on the road even though it was so early. The teacher listens to boring talk show radio. We just assume we go straight unless he says. I can not think of anything more boring. I'm pretty sure he fell asleep today when Jesse was driving. Tomorrow is my last day and the final test. It's also freeway driving but I have never done the freeway before. I'm so excited for it to be over with!
