oh summer 'o9.

two10ers!

i seriously can't believe this summer is over, and this is it! i hope everyone has had an amazing time home/in utah/on vacation/wherever everyone has been! sorry i've been so bad at communication. i'm just so excited to be reunited! --except for heather and kelsey, both of which are extremely selfish.

just thought i'd share a few notes.

wow, i've had the most amazing summer, and i couldn't have asked for a better time these last 4 1/2 months!



i had my last day watching rijk- the world's largest 15 month-old yesterday!
seriously, this kid was the cutest. and the family was amazing...the mother, andrea bought me the CUTEST little clutch from ant hropologie as a going away present! :) such a great summer experience!! it's crazy to me to think that when i first started he wasn't even walking. now he's 18 months. what a champ.



turns out i met a really cute boy (guess i should say man haha).
the eric otto.
a wonderful boy indeed. went to michigan, shared ice cream in the park, ate pizza every time we went out, and he taught me what it's like to date a true gentleman!

can't wait to share all my stories with you little cuties.



living with tiff was the best choice i've ever made. she's the best sister in the whole world!
oh chicago.
turns out she fell in love with a boy. he's really cute. remember tylor ames? yep, just like him.
also, tiffy will be gracing rexburg with her presence come january. yessss. you'll all meet her...be excited! :)

(p.s. check out this dress! the sleeves are outrageous!)


this summer has romanced me!


now it's back to mount shasta for a week before i go to IDAHO. i'll be there the night of the 7th! HEATHER, congrats on graduating! building 2 won't be the same!
KELSEY, i'm just mad at you (and by mad, i mean i'm going to be absolutely depressed).
JESSICA, roommaaaates! yesss.
KRISTEN, i hope you and blockbuster man live happily ever after. can't wait to hear about it.
COURTNEEEE, gossip girl? check yes.

love you all. tons and tons and tons. can't wait to hear all of your stories. :)

the thrine...

dear thrine,
happy first day of your senior year. i hope that this year brings you as much joy, humor, and excitement as mine did. i've loved this summer playing with you. no one can car dance quite like you. you are the greatest kid in the world and i love you. thanks for being my best friend. you are kind, fresh, talented, intelligent, and good. keep it up. and stay close to the Lord. it was zach morris who said, 'high school was great! too bad classes got in the way!' i love you!
love, stian

PARRRRTAAAYYY

Today is the best day of my life.
It is the last day I ever have to work for this blasphemous company called CargoBay, Inc.
Good bye CBi.

I also had a dr's appt this morning.
No more physical therapy.
Wake boarding here I come.

I am seriously so excited to have two and a half weeks of vacation.
And the best part is knowing that when it's over... I'll be seeing all of your lovely faces every second.

Kim: don't kill yourself. Seriously though. Can't wait to move back in with your face.
KJ: wtf. where are you even living in the fall? I DOOOO want to party. Every second I am awake. and sometimes when I am sleeping. Seriously though. This is not a drill.
HoHo, Kris, Court: I believe Sean and I are going to Magic Mtn next weekend. You should come play. I'm not kidding. I really miss you guys. San Diego was the best day of my summer to date.

I love you all... I guess I should go back to work? pahahah. funny joke.

xox.
