The Holidays

I decided blogging is boring when you're with the people you blog FOR... but here are some pictures for an update.
Before the semester ended we had a Christmas sugar cookie decorating party. Here are the happy attendee's...

Jeremy and Laura

Ryan and Becca and their awesome gingerbread house

Jared and Erin

Josh and Emily


Just when we were leaving the snow arrived in Provo...
This is the view out our kitchen window.

Tristan is not too happy about it...

Beautiful shot on our drive home and yea... there was snow in Vegas.

Shortly after my arrival was my little sister, Makenzie's, brithday. She was SO happy about turning 12.

We attended the Bigler and Perdue Christmas parties...



We all went caroling... with our beautiful voices... mom and sisters pre-caroling.

Me and my sisters, perfect angels, waiting for Santa on Christmas Eve.


Christmas morning at the Perdue's we all get Nerf guns and its a race to open them and shoot each other.

Tristan and I on Christmas.

Happy Birthday Brittany

So...Today's my BIRTHDAY !! YAY! ...and it snowed today for the first time. Super.

But i had a really good birthday and not to mention, birthday weekend. On Saturday Alyse and I went to lunch at Los Hermanos and we wore our Los Hermanos shirts and got free smoothies. It was yummy. Thanks Alyse!

Saturday night we went to dinner at the Olive Garden with Becca, Ryan, my cousin Jacob and his woman/my adopted sister Brittany. That was yummy too.
Sunday we went to my Grandma and Grandpa Jensen's house and Grandma made a delicious dinner and she even got me an ice cream cake. This is me pre and during the action. Check out my cheeks... (i wanted to make sure my wish came true)



Today i opened presents. Tristan got me a sweet new Cannon digital camera and beautiful red roses.

My mom got me a a cute new outfit from Nordies. Thanks MOMMY(and family)!

Thank you everyone for the presents and cards and for making my day totally awesome!
Love you all and Happy 22nd Birthday to ME!

Oh Christmas Tree!

Christmas has arrived in our little home. Today, for family night, we unpacked all our christmas stuff, set up our tree and what a beautiful sight! Here is a picture of the happy tree...

This is Tristan putting the first ornament on the tree.

I am collecting (thanks to my Grandma Jensen) the Willow Tree nativity scene. She gave me my christmas present early this year so i can display it. The new addition is the 3 wise men. I cant wait to have the WHOLE thing. Thanks grandma!

Note: the "We love snow" snowman in the background. Not sure if that true but nonetheless its the cutest snowman ever. Thanks mom!
Last year we got this nutcracker for christmas from Kelly. It's cute, and christmasy so i thought i would put it on the blog.

Only 2 more weeks of class and then CHRISTMAS is here!

Thanksgiving in Carlsbad

Tristan and I cut class and left for home early to enjoy a full week of a Turkey filled vacation. Here are a few of the highlights of our week home: I saw Twilight twice and it was amazing. Here is all of us at the movie.

Wednesday we played with Ashley and Scott Hardy. Ashley is a long time high school friend of both of us. We went out to dinner for the best mexican food, El Torrito, and then played Wii Sport. I kicked everyone's butt, just ask Tris. This is us boxing each other.


Thanksgiving we had our FIRST annual Perdue soccer game. You better believe mine and Tristan's team won. The best part of it was that is was raining the whole time we were playing and a few of us ate it in the mud (Mike and Shawn). It was a BLAST and i cant wait for the 2nd annual game.

Thursday, Tris and I had TWO thanksgiving dinners. Once at my house with my family and my moms parents and my dad's brother and sister and then AGAIN at Tristan's house with his family and grandparents.


I had to be rolled around the house after that and thought i would be full for the rest of my life. Tristan enjoyed all of the yummy PIE. Its his favorite. This is one of Kelly's (Tristan's mom) homemade pie's.

Friday, Kelsey had a soccer game in San Diego and i went to cheer on soccer stud and her fellow Attack teammates. We did some shopping at Nordies and had a good day with the Tucker women and Grandma Jensen. Tristan went sailing with his family and caught some gnarly wind and big ocean waves. Some even got sea sick.

Saturday, we ALL went out to breakfast at Ruby's. It's always delicious.


As our our last night in Paradise, we caught the sun as it was setting.


While we were at the beach we saw this. Ryan's new Bug. Happy Belated Birthday!
