Home of the Panthers.

Once upon a time.
A boy and a girl both rode the bus to school.
They went to an Elementary called Twin Peaks.
It was an elementary far from their house, pretty much only cool kids got to attend this school.
(or our parents were just nice and sent us there to keep the attendance numbers up so the didn't shut the school down)
The boy was smart, funny and popular and in fourth grade.
The girl was kind of shy didn't know many people because all the kids she went to kindergarten went to a school called Fox Hills. She was in first grade.
The girl sat in the front with her friend Jordan.
The boy being popular sat in the back of the bus where only the cool kids got to sit.
After two marvelous years the parents of the girl had her transfer back to the school in her area called Fox Hills.
And the boy kept attending Twin Peaks.
Many years later this boy and girl revisited this school and talked of there many memories involving it.
For some reason the big magical place was a lot smaller then what was remembered from many years ago.
You see this cool fourth grade boy eventually took pity on the small shy first grade girl and now lets her hold his hand from time to time.

She is one lucky girl.

Kevin and I had the same first grade teacher Mrs. Keotter. She was the best. She taught us how to spell. Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.
Its rumored to be the longest word in the dictionary. And we were only in the first grade. yeah.
so cool.

update.

ok. maybe I am an exagerater?

I have had a very productive day since that last post.

I am so proud of myself right now.

Woke up and went to my 8:30 class.

Went to the admissions office and did my office hour.

I got a new windshield for the Bu.

Then took it and got inspections done.

(it passed with flying colors!)

Good job Buick.

While I was waiting for the car to get done, I went over to Walmart.

Got some groceries.

Then Hobby Lobby to buy a book for a photo journal for my class.

Came home ate a healthy lunch, staightened up my room, and confirmed my Follow Up Visit for Friday.

Now I have to walk up the horrid hill to my last class.

Late classes stink by the way.

Who wants to come out of class and walk home in the dark?

I don't.

Thanks Mike for calling me off work this morning. I was able to get a lot done!

Hooray for productive days.

Registering your car is annoying.

Sometimes I really feel like blogging. But I don't know what to write.

Because nothing in my life feels that exciting right now...

Kristen my sister is at the hospital in labor so that means baby number

trece in the Hillam clan is on its way. So that is actually something very

exciting.

I did pretty well in my photo critique on tuesday.

Remember when I was really sad cause my best friend Steph moved to the Philippines?

Well she is back! And I am so glad!

My room looks like a tornado came through and stayed for awhile.

It's offically been 7 months...today.

I dyed my hair brown recently. Thats a pretty fun change.

Its Valentines season...and the only good thing that comes with this

is JuJu hearts. They make my stomach happy.

I need a new job.

I also need to start building up my portfolio and get experience with portraits

so if anyone has life aspirations to be a model, give me a call. I can't really pay you

but I could give you a high five or a cookie...take your pick.

I have an itching to go to a concert real real bad.

I miss the warm weather.

And lately I have been craving Pace popcicles like its my job

. Too bad its freezing outside or I might go buy one.

and

now

I have to go take my car to get the windshield replaced.

Hope your day is going well...watch out for those ice patches on the ground.

They are the devil.

sometimes i don't have a title.

I hate it when the weekends are over.

I live two different lives.

One that involves school, cold weather, giving tours, roommates, and about five days.

And another that involves two days of blissful happiness, an amazingly handsome boy and it never fails to go by too quickly.

---------------------------

I wish I could combine the two.

My life would be a lot easier. And more enjoyable.

Four more months...I can do it.

oh and I like this quote.

I think its kind of fitting.

I have been awful about blogging all the fun things I have gotten to do over this lovely holiday. Did I mention I am dreading starting school on tomorrow?
Cause I am.

I like warm-ness.

So the first two years that Kevin was home from his mission he had the amazing opportunity to go to Dixie and play on their soccer team.

He is an amazing soccer player...thats pretty much the only reason I like him.
:)
The second he moved back from St. George this summer he wanted to go back.
I remember him talking about it on our first date.
So...this Christmas break he finally got to do it.
I had the week after Christmas off of work, so we took a two day little road trip down to the land of warm.
We got to stay with the Greens-Kevs second family who he lived with his

second year down there.
It was so fun to visit with them, and to see kevin in his element.

Monday:

We saw Tangled, ate at the cutest little Cafe and Cake Parlor-

Twenty Five Main.
Its my new love. I want to make it a tradition to go there everytime i visit St. George.

I'm so mad we didn't take any pictures of it.
We hiked up to Dixie Rock.
Suzanne made Kevin his favorite meal, and we played a little Kinect with Bryant and Amber.

Tuesday:

I slept in entirely too long.

We played card games.

Ate a grape glacier at delicious Frostop.

Went shopping at the Hall (Mall)
Then stopped at the one and only Nielsons Frozen Yogurt.
Kev always talks about this place so we couldn't leave St. George without stopping here.
I'm so glad we finally got to go. It was fun to see all the places Kev always talks about and hear all of his stories while we were down there.

Then we headed back to the freezing-ness of salt lake.

Until next time St. Geezie....

A new year.

For New Years this year we were lucky enough to get invited to Katie Jo's Cabin up in Tetonia, Idaho.
It was such a fun trip.

I want to go back.
Look how gorgeous it was.

We went snowmobiling (my first time ever), sledding, ate delicious food, watched a lot of movies, and played a ton of games.

Happy 2011!
I think this year is going to be a good one.
