Zeusy Poosy and holiday goosey

Thought I'd open up the post with this ADORABLE pic. This was on our drive back from Vegas after Thanksgiving break. I LOVE HIM!!!

Thanksgiving was great. We spent it with my mom and dad so it was pretty quiet but we kept busy by strolling the Venetian, watching Lifetime movies, christmas shopping, cooking, and of course eating.


Zeus was a bad boy and ruined my mom's nice curtain...sorry mom :(

Delicious Thanksgiving dinner. That's a lot of food for 4!

The first weekend of December I performed in Christmas Around the World at BYU as the lead singer. I felt so honored to be part of such a fantastic event. Practices ran late into the night and I barely got anything done at school but it was so worth it! So many friends and family came to support! Thanks to everyone who came!


With Trent, my parents, and the Witt family

The following week the Folk club threw a celebration ball for the conclusion of Christmas Around the World. I sang "Santa Baby" at the request of my conservative teacher Delynne (another story for another time if you ask me). Trent came and we danced together for the first time since our wedding. IT WAS A BLAST!

This following picture was my birthday day in a nutshell. I had three finals and by the time I was done, it was 9:30. Trent and I got a bite of tepanyaki and there was NO ONE at the restaurant. What an intimate show with our chef!


Fortunately, my birthday/christmas/end-of-the-semester party was much more fun. I threw an "Office" themed party complete with nifty gifties, half blown-up balloons, yankee swap, and a "thats-what-she-said" white board. We played office olympics like running around the room with a glass full of water and racing through the hallway on our rolling chairs. I couldn't have been happier! I have such great friends and feel so grateful for all the people who came and celebrated!

Sarah made my cake. SHE'S MY FAVORITE!

Nifty Gifties and Mexican Lemonade.

Making my wish!

Lastly, before Trent and I left for the holidays, I made a short video with Alex as a Lucky Crickets Christmas present. It's not recorded fancy, but we both felt really good about the final product that came out! Give a listen if you have a spare 3 minutes!


HAPPY CHRISTMAS! May you all remember the true blessing and light through the dark winter holidays of Jesus Christ and His infinite atonement.
