Yum! and it was free drink friday at work....fridays my new favorite day. Umm....On monday I woke u at 6:20 am and stood in line at the institute bulding to get tickets for Pres. Packer. I was soo tired,i felt like I was sleep walking. But we made friends in line, and i even made a few good jokes. And we got tickets for row K. Also this week I went to an occupational therapist session and the University of Utah. The session explain OT (occupation therapy) and how to get in ect. I feel really good about this. Finally i feel like i have a direction to go. I will continue to go to Weber and get my bachelors in Early Childhood education, and then apply to the occupational therapy program ( which i can do my senoir year) So hooray! But i have a lot og work to do,and about 6 more years left of school. (big sigh)
Well im tired adn thats all the exciting news from this week! Love ya!

I love to take pictures!! Especially of myself :)
Anyways here are some random pictures from this past week!
I love my siblings soooo much, I love being home with them!! They're my best friends!So i'll explain some of them the first 2 are of me and mikey, we had a sleepover the other night! Then yesterday i was trying to finish a paper for school, adn Mariah wanted to play, so to get my attention, she took my tabs and wrote "I love you, Haley" and put them on her forehead! She's so funny!! Then last but not least is ana, I have no idea where she got the costume from, but she had fun dancing around in it!

Halloween fun

Halloween morning I woke up and carved pumpkins with the kids. We had a ton of fun! We only had 4, and their were 5 of us so ana and I shared. She was scared to carve them cause she didn't want to mess it up, so she just helped everyone else scoop the seeds out. Mariah and Mikayle were so excited that I let them use their own knives, I think they both picked teh biggest ones. I'm not gonna lie, they scared me a few times. Micheal got all clever and found a box cutting knife, he thought It worked pretty well, and he got done the fastest! I thought our pumkins turned out pretty good, nothing too fancy!
After pumpkins I went to work, it was a normal day, not too busy though. I got off around 7, and went home to change and met Andy is SLC, we went to dinner then am institiute dance it was fun. We went as Masquerade people, so I wore a poofy old prom dress, and we had cool masks. Good times! ( I'm not turning this into a dating blog so, thats all the details ya get)

Halloween costume.

So I haven't dressed up the last few Halloweens.( Last year i was on the mish, so i put on normal clothes and that was my costume) So this year I am excited beccause I can be whatever I want! I was trying to be creative, and cheap and somehow I thought I would be "Wendy" ya know from the fast food place. Wendy and I have a lot in common, we both have red hair, freckles, were short, and we both love frosties and hamburgers. So last week my mom and I stopped into the DI to look for used DVD's, i decided to look in the dress section to see if i could find a blue striped dress. My mom helped me look and after 10 seconds of looking she handed me this blue striped dress,We looked at it and just laughed! I swear it is wendys exact dress! I didn't even try it on, I just bought it! So today i decided to try it on, so here it is. i can't decide if i like it or not. But i think i look a lot like Wendy in it!

Hiking adventure!

So I woke up this morning with a strong desire to go hiking...weird for me I know, I usually hate any sort of exercise! I decided that it probably wasn't safe for me to go alone, you always hear those stories about young girls missing while hiking alone.Or I would probably get bored because i'd have no one to talk to. ( or after reading Ben's blog about midgets I had visions of little men, and woman jumping out of bushes and dragging me into the forrest where they could break open my head with large suckers.) So as soon as the kids got home from school, I informed them that they were going hiking with me if they wanted to or not. Mikey is the only one who absolutely refused to go,( he's much bigger than me, and stronger, so I couldn't force him) but my Dad, Mariah, Ana and Mikayla all agreed to come. So we hiked up the Indian Trail in the Ogden Canyon, we went around 4,so the weather was perfect. Most of the leaves had alreadty fallen, but we were still left with some bright yellow leaves. It was gorgeous!! I just love the fall, the way it smells, the way it looks, the weather and everything else about it! It was a lot of fun. Mikayla seemed to enjoy it the most. she literally "Ran" up the mountain, she loved to run ahead then find a perfect picture spot then would pose and yell for me to take a picture. So I have a million pictures of her, holding sticks, sitting on rocks, touching the stream ect. Mariah also entertained herself by looking for "fossils" she would stop and pick up every rock to check to see if it was special in any way. She did find rock with a fossilized leaf in it. It was big so she threw it against a rock untill it broke off. She carried around the whole time, and she still has it. Ana was not as happy to hike as the rest of us. she complained I think about 91% of the time. she got really bugged when mikayla started singing " Pioneer Children Sang as they walked" You all know that song..it goes on forever and ever! Mikayla thought she was pretty funny but Ana did not. My Dad came and that was a lot of fun. He kept telling us history about the trail and of course added a few jokes, and told ana that the Russian Indians walked this very trail.. ana beleived him at first. :) We also played a joke on Mariah and told her that there was a bug on her shoulder, much to my surprise she "flipped" out and after we told her we were joking she almost burst into tears and wouldn't talk to me for like 3 mintutes! Poor Riah! Ok moving on.. all in all it was a very nice hike. No one fell, no one got lost, and we took some prtty good pictures to document it all. I enjoyed hiking i think the most. I have missed our mountains here, and I have missed Utah weather! I think i'll go on another hike soon, probably waterfall canyon I love that one!
