time

I took my love and I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life

Well, I've been afraid of changing
Cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too

Well, I've been afraid of changing
Cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older, too
Well, I'm getting older too

So, take this love and take it down
Yeah, and if you climb a mountain and you turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well the landslide brought me down
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well maybe
Well maybe
Well maybe the landslide will bring you down

new blog

There's nothing on it yet,
but I made a blog for when I'm away in Paris,France.

my first chapter

Starting college was the beginning of my new life; a brand new chapter in life. As nervous as I was to travel over 1600 miles across the country, NORTH [born&raised in the aRiZona heat], I was really stoked for this new experience.
I thought that I would hate going to BYU-Idaho;freeziNg,weirdpeople,school work,potatoes,new roommates..
But my opinion was completely changed almost instantly. My roommates in 313 were beyond amazing, and we became friends immediately. I loved every single one of my five brand new friends.
I will never forget my first semester at BYU-I, every memory, every friend I made, even every class I passed.

And then my new story continued for a second semester in what I quickly learned to be beautiful Rexburg, Idaho.
I made even more new friends this time around and had just as much, if not more, fun than my first semester. I loved the spring and every minute of it. I didn't want to leave, and say goodbye to so many people I had become close to.

I've been home now for a couple weeks, getting ready for my next step; and even bigger,scarier,excitinger new experience- Paris. I leave in just barely over a week to live for the next three months. I cannot wait to go and enjoy.

oreo filled chocolate chip cookies.

I've been feeling baker-ish lately.

I'm house sitting this weekend for two different houses so I've been driving back and forth feeding and playing with dogs and have not much else to do. And last night I felt like doing something for my parents for their anniversary, so I found this delicious recipe from pinterest* and it turned out aMazing. Usually, things I try to cook don't exactly turn out the way I plan so I rarely have high expectations, but this was so so good and I did it all from scratch. I used peanutbutter oreos [my favorite] and it made them tEn X's better.
The cookie recipe is also very delicious. I snuck in a few tastes pre-baked.

ONE MONTH.
&I'll be in the real Paris,[you know; paris,France]. This is only the tower in Vegas, and I'm sure it doesn't even come close to comparing. Can't wait, still seems unreal.

the month of may

[Taylor, Sam, Curtis]

There are a few special days here in Rexburg where the weather is perfect. We don't get many so we take advantage of the sun we get to see for those beautiful couple hours. A couple weeks ago we went to a little lake at the sand dunes. So much fun and such a great day.

My favorite thing to do; Creep out our third floor apartment.

One night a huge group of us went to the ice caves. We walked all the way through, slipping a couple of times, to the back of the caves where we split open all these glow sticks and sprayed them everywhere; all over everybody and all the rocks. So you couldn't tell what was cave and what was a person. Then we played hide and go seek. It was soo much fun and such a great idea.
