Concerts

On October 16, my best friend Britton Billik came into Salt Lake. He was the tour manager for a band called The Cab and was on tour with The Plain White T's, Dashboard Confessional, and Panic at the Disco. Callie drove up from Provo the night before and slept over so we could go see Britton togher. Taylor came along too.  It was soo good to see Britton and Callie I don't see very often either. It was nice being with my 3 best friends.

The next week on the 21st was Sing It Loud, Hit the Lights, Forever the Sickest Kids, and Cobra Starship. Callie came up from Provo with her roommate Jessie and I met her there with my boyfriend, Taylor. I got to say hi to Ben, Nate, and Pat from Sing It Loud, it was soo good seeing those guys again. Ben hung out with us during a couple of the other bands sets, it was nice catching up with him.

Birthday Weekends

This year my birthday was over a weekend and I went home to Connecticut for it to celebrate with Mom, Dad, Sean, Aaron and JP. Taylor's 19th birthday is exactly a week after mine and unfortunately I was sick over that weekend so I couldn't do anything special for him, but we did have a combined birthday party in Park City at my friend Aidan's condo. The one I lived at over the summer. Taylor and our good friend Brady have the same birthday so we included him on the festivities. To start the night off I got a bunch of friends up to Park City to enjoy a delicious dinner at Red Rock. Me, Steph, Brit, Teri, Aidan, Shanny, Chris, and John all came up for dinner (below) John in the background and me making a sexy face :) Steph's arm in the way.

From left to right: Brady, Me, Taylor, Witt, Ryan. Aidan made us a chocolate cake for our birthday so we lit the candles and everyone sang happy birthday and blew out the candles. Pretty good cake, I enjoyed it!

Taylor and me!

Random pictures of my life

So this is my first post and I'm still trying to get the jist of it. I'm sorry if everything that follows this post is really confusing because honestly I'm confused too. Anyways here I go!
So this is the second weekend in October and it was snowing! So I went up and snowboarded at Brighton! Below, me and Shanny. Sick picture, probably one of my favorites!
The girls I hang out with. Pretty much my best and only girlfriends. I love them! I've been fortunate to find amazing friends at school! From left to right: Me, Teri, Aidan, and Steph. Missing: Brit

There is Bruiser! My roommate's Boxer. He's about 7 months old and a big dope! He's been so fun in the house, but we're still trying to get him to stop pooping in the house, he's been better though! Next to Bruiser is the kitty we caught. She's about 4 months old and she was a stray lurking around my house. My roommates and I could hear her at night purring and so we set out to catch her and finally did. When we first got her we didn't know if she was a boy or a girl and since she was a stray she was all grimey looking so we called her Mr. Grimes. My roommate took her to the vet to get shots and the vet said it was a girl so instead my roommate named her Isabella, Izzy for short. She's spoiled!
Taylor and Izzy on my bed :)

On the other side of my duplex. Some kids went to Idaho for a rail jam and brought home the coat and goggles that I'm wearing. Taylor, Ryan, Me

Teri and I enjoying the cowboys and indians party. It got pretty wild with all the paint

Mine and Taylor's 1 year anniversary. We actually don't know the actual date so we just picked a day in September to go out and celebrate. I got him a poster of The Beatles and a CTR ring for his mission. He made me a picture book of just us and blew up a picture and framed it for my wall.

So there it is. That is pretty much everything random so far!
