Haircut

This is not a dramatic change...sorry to disappoint. However, I have come to discuss how much I love haircuts. My last haircut was December, so this was much needed. That clean cut and moisturized feel. Yes..you all know what I'm talking about. I went to a new salon and saw a new stylist recommended by a friend of mine at work. She's GREAT! (and cheaper than my other stylist. extra bonus) I loved the way she worked and she's super nice and listened to all of my requests. So, if you are looking for a new hair stylist--let me know!

Letters To Juliet

I just watched this movie for the first time tonight and I LOVED it. I thought it was just the cutest story and great actors. Ah. Just thought it was great. Ps. I want it to be my life....Anywho, if you haven't seen it watch it. So good!

What To Do When...

What to do when:
-you have a sprained ankle?
-you have watched enough TV?
-you have done the limited exercise allowed?
-you don't feel like reading anymore?
AND- you have extra bananas in the freezer?

Well duh!

Make Banana Bread!

So this is exactly what I did. Now, I've lost quite a few l. b.'s this summer and I'm not about to go pig out on my delicious banana bread (and I must say...it's pretty darn good). Instead, I made cute little banana cupcakes which gave me that little satisfaction I needed :)

If only I could add smells to this pictures

Yum!

Family Reunion

Here are just a few from the Huguely/Strazza/Johnson (my grandma and her two siblings) Reunion. It was so great to see some of my extended family who I haven't seen in over a few years. Although time was minimum and it flew by we all had a great time. Hope you had a great 70th, Toots! Glad we were all their to celebrate. 

Countdowns:

29 days until Elder Ben Snow is HOME!

35 days until Utah!

Also more excited news: I've completed my 300 hours for the Dietetics application! Glad I planned ahead and I don't have to scramble come February. Also study abroad applications will be in motion soon. :) Updates on that when they start. 

Look Who's Slackin'

I disappeared from the blogging world for a little bit, but I'm going to work on it! Updates, I've been working, working out, going to the beach, eating, sleeping, and hanging out! 

--I've made around 3500 dollars since I've been home and my goal from now until to school is to not spend any money only for gas. Thank I can do it?

--Emerald Isle, NC is beautiful! I went with the Andersons for a week and had such a fun time at their beach house!
