Meet the the Family

The Family!!!

My calling in my college ward is the FHE mom, and I have been doing an absolutely terrible job being a mom, I haven't showed off how cool my 16 children are. 

We are quite a crazy group, in the past we have done lots of games, like the animal game, and if anyone wants to know Thomas does the animal noises, we also did some games like "What If...." and last week we did an awesome scavenger hunt, and we had some very delicious treats over the past week, and by the 

Well I just want to give everyone a little introduction to our little family away from our families. The boys include Tyler, Marc, Thomas, Danny, Ryan, and the FHE dad, Brandon. There are two apartments of girls, in apartment 103 there are Ashley, Becka, Jessica, Brittany, Brooke and Kathleen. And then there is apartment 301 being, Emily, Kimber, Lindsey, Kassie, Sarah and ME! 
This last FHE we took on the Halloween Spirit and 
carved/painted pumpkins. The boys brought out their knives (very scary I know) and the girls did what we do best which is paint! Our pumpkins turned out rather fabulous if you ask me and we all had a blast sing Disney songs.

Mothers Weekend

This last weekend was a great one indeed. Mothers all over the nation came to the campus of BYU-Idaho, and our apartment had the opportunity to have two of them with us. Kassi and Emily's mothers came and we all just fell in with love with them. The rest of us kind of got a little depressed because we didn't get to have our mothers with us but we quickly got over that. Saturday night we got to go see Momma Mia, such a funny movie, we laughed so hard throughout the entire thing. And when we got home we had lots of fun playing apples to apples and ate some food Kassi's mother made for us.

This is way we dress to go out in public, in our sweats. The best way to go!

Kassi with her amazing mother, we all loved her!!!
But the most amazing thing happened while we slept Saturday night, it SNOWED!!!! We all woke up with snow falling and everything covered in white. What a wonderful sight!

Cupcake Wars!

On Friday night Sarah, Kimber and I had an amazing night. Jared, Brett and Drew came over with all the ingredients to make cupcakes. We all worked together and made way too many cupcakes, that were all beautifully decorated.
But while we were enjoying our chocolate on chocolate cupcakes Kimber made a move on Sarah and got icing all over her face. Then Brett thinking he was oh so clever he tricked Jared into getting a little closer and got a LARGE amounts of icing all over his face. Then chaos irrupted in apartment 301. Icing was flying everywhere, Brett attacked Jared, Jared attacked Drew and me, Drew got Sarah, Sarah got Kimber and Drew and I got Drew and Jared also. 
After we escaped all the chocolatey icing that was now all over faces and in our hair, much to the dismay of all the girls, we came back into the apartment. We then all cleaned up all that we could and went to and watched Iron Man (amazing movie). 
All in all we had an awesome night and the next day we found a huge glob of icing on our door.

The Whole Ten Yards

Once every week, us girls battle the winds and the freezing tempatures and watch the boys in our ward play a little football. This last game we went to was so cold, we bundled up so tightly but yet the cold air still wiggled its way through our coats, our other four layers of clothing and froze us to the bones. But amazingly enough once we cuddled up and piled up on top of each other, it was somewhat bearable.

We found this to be the method to be the warmest....SPOONING!!

Anxiously Engaged

Our first roommate has become engaged. Emily Jean Crowley is no engaged to be married to Brett Jared Blodgett. They plan to get married in April in the Oakland, CA temple. 
Aren't they soooo cute?

Conference Weekend

As conference weekend approached Apartment 301 decided to vacate Rexburg and follow the exodus to Utah. Kassi went to Logan to spend some time with some family and friends, Emily went to Salt Lake City with her Brett to see family and attend General Conference, Lindsey went to Riverton to stay with her Aunty and Uncle, her parents came up from New Mexico and she was able to see her boyfriend so she was one happy girl. Kimber headed to Provo to hang out with her brother and had the opportunity to see conference, and Sarah and I stuck together like glue, we went to Provo to see Miss Kennedy Wise and then went to West Jordan to see Sarah's sisters and their husbands. 
Here are just some pictures that I took while I was there but you will just have to wait and see the other's girls pictures. 
Late Friday night I hiked up to the Y. A little more intense then I thought. 
Sarah with her two sisters and their husbands. We had so much fun with these guys. 

Sarah and I forgot to take a picture at the restaurant we ate at so we took a picture in the bathroom.
