Attempt #2. I gave it one more try. I am not sure why I have the skeptical eyebrow, but just go with it!!

Ok I wanted to show my hair cut curly, so I decided to take my own picture. I think it turned out pretty well.

A picture showing me at the arena. Also my hair looks super short, because my amazing roomate rachel cut it for me. I love it.

Another cool picture of the arena.

Here is Kevin Garnett getting introduced and coming out onto the floor. Cool picture right?

I got to go to my very first Celtics game!!! This is Alison and I holding up our tickets with such pride!! I of course was cheering for the Celtics- hence the green top. Alison being the much truer Utahn than I wore blue and cheered for the Jazz. She really loves the Jazz!

Here she is again. She is probably laughing at Elmo. She loooooves him!

In case anyone didn't know right now along with working at the GAP I am nannying for a couple that has a baby. She is about 7 months and her name is Kendall. Here she is being silly which is most of the time. We have alot of fun together!

Rachel and I at the bog. We are awesome right?

Me posing inside the museum at the bog.

The cranberry bog.

We went on a hayride and we got to stop at a pumpkin patch!

Here is the group of us that went to the orchard and bog.

Rachel and I thought it would be cool to look like we were eating a poison apple! We love our fairy tales!

Here is the apple!

The month of October has been a fun one. One Saturday we went apple picking and to a cranberrybog. It was alot of fun. This is me using the pole to reach a apple high up in the tree.

Also this past weekend my cousin Ben Mack came down from DC with a couple of his friends to hang out in Boston and we went to dinner and had canoli's. They also spent the night Friday. I didn't take any pictures but his friend did so I think I will have her email me some. It was alot of fun to see him and meet his friends. He is the only family so far that has been to my house!

I hope you all don't die of shock, but that cookie I am holding is something that I made!! There was a new member dinner at our bishop's house and the
RS presidency was in charge of desserts and I brought homemade oreos and guess what? I won the bake off!

Just me showing my excitement for finally being able to go to a Football game!!!

Just another view of the game.

Some of us that went to the game.

A friend of mine from church goes to Boston College and she got tickets for a bunch of us to go to the BC vs Kent St football game. It was awesome!

Wow. I didn't realize that I hadn't posted anything for the month of August. Sorry everybody!! I guess you can blame it on the fact that we moved to a new apartment and the process of finding a new apartment has been very stressful. But nonetheless we found a good, affordable apartment for us to live in. When I say us I mean myself, Rachel, Kristina (yeah she is finally our roomate!!) and Alison. Yes just the four of us. We are very excited. As for pictures of the new place, those will come soon.

But onto other news. I am now in the Relief Society Presidency. I just got called to be the secretary. Before I was just the assistant to the RS president, but since they have split the two singles wards into three our previous secretary is now in the new ward and so I guess you could say I got promoted. It is alot of work but I am loving it. I just taught the lesson on Sunday and I am happy to say that it went well. So now I am done for a few months. Yeah!! I hope to be posting again very soon with pictures!!

Here are all of us post decorating and after he saw his door!

Here is the box along with some signs that Kristina made.

Here is his door!!

This awesome picture is of our pre-door decorating for our friends house. I know pretty thug right?

So we have this friend who just left for his mission and we decided that he needed a memory box of Boston. So Maddie and Alison are putting the finishing touches on the box in this photo.

more of Vermont.

A pretty picture of the grounds.

Close Up!!

A faraway picture of me, Rachel and Kristina in front of the memorial.

This quote is located under the picture of Brigham Young in the museum. I thought it was pretty powerful.

The front side of the memorial.

The strong, faithful testimony of the prophet which is located on the backside of the memorial.

The beautiful memorial for the prophet.

The full statue and Maddie's backside!!

A couple of weeks ago, my roomates and I drove up to Vermont to go to Joseph Smith's birthplace. It was so amazing to finally get to see some historical stuff for the church!!

I gave it my very best!!

When you order at Leatherby's make sure that you double check just how big the item is!! This is my banana split!! I know it is huge!

While I was home I reunited with a couple of my old roomates. We ate at California Pizza kitchen and then went to our favorite dessert spot, Leatherby's. Before we left we had the waitress take our picture because it will be the last time we are all together for 18 months. Melissa the cute girl in the pink has just left on a mission to Arizona. Rochelle the far left just got married in march and Kelly on the far right just got made the relief society secretary. She has only been a member of the church for about 11 months!!

I brought Cole a shirt for his birthday too!

I was so excited to go to my home town and visit my brother Blake and his family. On the far left is my brother and their new puppy Boston(he was not named after my current place of residence:) next my sister in-law Rachele, she is holding their super cute two year old Brady. Next to Brady is their five year old Cole, who is one of the smartest kids I have ever met(Again not biased, just stating a fact). Then of course me. It was so good to see you guys. Love you lots!!

I brought them both shirts from Boston for their birthdays!!

Here is Quinn who is four, the dare devil brother of Paige and Sadie.

Of all the pictures I took while I was home, this is one of my favorites!!

My niece Paige. She just turned 6 on July 3rd. I was so excited to go visit my brother and his family and be able to spend her birthday with her. She is so beautiful and so smart. I love her new haircut!!
