hello world!!

It has been a long time since i have blogged! i would LOVE to say that a ton has happened in the last month but that would be a lie. not much has happened. here is a list of things that have happened...
1. We found out austin didn't get the CO job in Idaho... =(
2. duke got a scrape in his left front leg. poor baby...
3. we visited uncle doug and aunt roxie on our way back from washington and it was so much fun! Uncle doug gave me a buck knife that i can use to gut my deer!!...well as soon as i shoot a deer i will be able to use it =) they had a fox hound and she was just adorable! she was so loud but such a good friend for duke! so much energy!!
4. I have decided to cut my hair. not a big chop off but a style. my hair is just looking hideous and because of that i have no wanting to take the time to do it because it doesn't look good when i do straighten it. So i am having patrick help me out with my problem. he is such a great brother =)
5. I signed up for an online class!! Everyone(mainly all my family) is worried that i won't ever finish so i decided that i will sign up for one so that they all know that i am serious about finishing. I am going to take American Heritage first. I am NOT looking forward to it but it will be a start.
6. I am crocheting a blanket =)
7. Austin and i made dinner for the family tonight. General Tso's chicken, yum!
8. the relief society presidency, the president and 1st counselor, came by to welcome me to the ward and brought me a WHOLE plate full of goodies!! pumpkin chocolate cookies, two cupcakes with strawberries on top!!, and rice krispie treats with cocoa pebbles =) i think i am going to eat one of those treats now =) see ya!!

write again soon i promise =)
