Halloween Carnival






The Friday before Halloween the elementary schools around Rexburg had their carnivals. They needed volunteers from BYUI and we thought it sounded like fun. Kassi, Brittany, and I were in charge of this monster operation "booth". The kids had to feel the hands(jello filled gloves), toes(green olives), Intestines(spaghetti), heart(frozen tomato), Brains( water beads. They couldn't see any of it except for the toes and hands. Some of those kids were so funny and WOULD NOT touch any of it! Others were a little smart alec-y and would say, "that's spaghetti!" It was really fun, but after two hours, we were so tired! It was only 7:30 when we were done, but it felt more like 10:00! There was a guy who was volunteering for a class that Stephanie got put with. At first we thought he was single. Brittany was like yeah Steph! I'm pretty good at scouting out the married guys, so I had to break it to them that he was married. Bummer for us!

Football!







I love, love, LOVE football games! Fall=football games. I just love sitting there all bundled up on the bleachers! The team playing was the Bruins. They're pretty much the only ones we care to watch because they're the BEST! BYU-I is kinda lame(only reason- oh wait, and the fact that the ratio of guys to girls is 1:3) because they did away with our football team, but they have their reasons. It started snowing randomly and if you haven't experienced the wind of Rexburg, it's merciless. The wind was blowing the snow directly into our faces, so for a while we couldn't watch the game. It only added to the experience!

BONFIRE

Some of our old FHE bros asked us if we wanted to have a bonfire and go fourwheelin' and NATURALLY, we said HECK YES! We roasted some mallows and starbursts. If you've never experienced a toasted starburst, you HAVE to. I recommend the tropical flavors. We had fun and got a little crazy.
Everyone was just having a jolly good time.

Kassi and I got stuck, but not to worry! I got off and pushed. Thanks for the ADVENTURE Kas!


Like I said, JOLLY good time.




Jordan is so fun to ride with!







Homer Simpson




I despise him, but have since come to appreciate him SOMEWHAT for the icebreaker that he is.(I will never understand why guys get such a kick out of him.)


Just push the button and he dances, sings, and says phrases like, " England, who needs that? I'm never going to England." and my favorite, "Feeling stupid? I know I am!" Yes, Homer is an idiot and I get to listen to him say about seven different phrases and dance to two songs every time a new person comes over to our apartment. At one point two of my roommates and I put him in the closet because we were so tired of hearing his voice. This did not last long however, because the roommate he belongs to brought him back out. Oh well, we have to pick and choose our battles around here. Oh and he was about 100 big ones. I know EXACTLY what you're thinking...
