Snow, Snow, Snow, SNOW!

 Yes, I have been singing the song from White Christmas in my head ALL day! :)

 Little AZ girls in their first ever (well, at college) snow fall--we were dying! It was so fun! And it hurt. But it was great! Oh, and in case you were wondering, it looked like Dippin' Dots. But no worries--we recorded ourselves. :) 

The wind was blowing the snow into our eyes. But it was SO pretty!



And to make today even greater--I got back an essay that I was SO stressed about for a long time (each little part that we turned in, I did TERRIBLE on, so I was REALLY nervous about the grade) AND I GOT A 47/50! :) :) :) :) :) :)

 

Oh, and then I went to the American Heritage lab to retake a quiz--that's a story all in itself--lets just say, don't try and balance a book on your lap top, and turn pages in another book, because your online quiz will be entered with only one of the 5 questions answered, and no way to go back--but anyway, I talked to the guy at the front desk, then looked at his name and saw his last name was "Gunnell".  Well, that's not really a common last name, and just in case you didn't already know this. I am an awkward person. So, here is our conversation:

Me: So, your last name is Gunnell.

Boy: {awkwardly looks at me like..okay where are you going with this?} yeah??

Me: That's awesome. That's my mom's maiden name! Who are your grandparents?

Boy: {still giving me the awkward look} Uhhh..I'm from Arizona.....

Me: Me too! That's cool!

Boy: {silence...probably thinking..who is this freak?!}

Me: My Grandpa is Darwin.....

Boy: Oh! Wait, what, really? Who are your parents?!

Me: My mom is Kay, what about you?

Boy: Oh! Darwin is my Great Grandpa. That's cool!

Me: So, who is your dad?

Boy: Brent, and that's my Grandpa too.

Me: Awesome! Well, good to meet you!

and with that I left.

 

Only at BYU, and in a big Mormon family do you meet someone who happens to be your second? cousin who you've never met before in your life. haha

 

Today is a great day!
