Hey guys,

I hope life is treating everyone well.
Here is an update of my life.

Pre-Thanksgiving fun:
The night before we left for thanksgiving a few people helped McKenna and I make a miraculous fort in our living room and had a blast. One of a kind night!

Thanksgiving:
It was delicious! Jessy and I headed to our Grandparents house and got to spend thanksgiving with family.  It was great seeing them! I wish that we could hang out with them more often, we have grown up without each other that I love getting to know who everyone has grown up to be.  We ate turkey, ham, jello salad, salad, deviled eggs, rolls, stuffing and everything was delicious.
We are so grateful to our grandparents who housed us and fed us as well as treated us multiple times. They are wonderful!!!!

Back at home: (School):
The Semester is slowly winding down and everyone is excited to head back home for Christmas. We have finals this week and then we are practically done.  I am excited to have my first semester of school over and anticipating next semester. I only wish that I could for real go home for Christmas, unfortunately the tickets to fly home for Jess and I are spendy, however I am sure that we will have a blast with family in Idaho.

My first social weekend (sounds pathetic right):


Surprisingly I did not spend my Friday night watching "Say yes to the dress". This past Friday my buddy from back home, Shilo, invited me to the Jane Austen Yule Ball held at BYUI. So, Shilo, Amanda and I all dolled up went to dance hoping for a blast.  We learned some of the dances from that time period and we took turns being the boy and girl in the couple. We also made a new friend named Siri who danced with us. We left early and got Kiwi Loco. It was a lot of fun!
We finished off the night by skyping with my best friend in the whole world and Shilo's boyfriend Ibrahim. We had a sleep over and enjoyed a relaxing morning which involved calling and friend from back home.  I also have enjoyed talking to family a bunch. I even got all my homework for Monday morning done by Saturday night!
This weekend was a pretty great one! Oh, and I watched My roommate Amanda dance her tail off at halftime for a basketball game with her lovely dance team.



Luckily it only rained!
The only scary thing coming up besides finals of course is:

THE WEATHER!!
In the words of our apartment, WE ARE ALL GUNNA DIE!
