my little peanut.

Babysat my niece tonight...She is so cute and spunky. I love her!!

Zoe Jane

Dancing with Tanner...

She's pretty good at taking pictures. lol

Kinda sneaky too...watch the video...haha

"up high, down low, too slow!!"

"Christmas Spirit"

Watch this video...You'll be glad you did...

hot chocolate.

This machine my roomates and I have discovered is called a COCOMOTION. It's probably the best invention ever. All you do is pour milk and a scoop of your favorite Hot Cocoa mix in it, and as it heats it to the perfect temperature, it whips it. It has been a lifesaver in this rediculous, cold, snowy place. :)

if you needed a christmas gift idea...there you go!

6 days till I'm home for break!! can. not. wait.

who can say they hate cats after watching this???

haha, SO CUTE!!!

thanksgiving break.

Being home for Thanksgiving was a blast. I love everything about home and vegas. Our Thanksgiving was pretty quiet because my brothers went to their dad's, but still so good. :) My week home consisted of...

-lots of movies...(The Blind Side, New Moon, The Proposal)

-pedicure :)

-hanging out with my cute nieces, and going to the park.

-Sonic stops. enough to kill me.

-sushi with my dad

-BYU vs. UTE game. that was intense.

-haircuts galore. I cut mom's, dad's, both nieces, brother's, and sis in law's.

-got my own hair done by wonderful Emily.

-DSW. :)

-family time!!!!

I loved it!

3 weeks till christmas break.

oh and 460 something hours till I'm done with school!

Thanks MOM!

So, here are some pics of my new room. No more little girl bedspread. :) My mom is so talented...she made the big valance over the window. I cant wait to move into it in February.

P.S. before the transformation my walls were baby blue, and my bedspread was blue, purple and cream. haha

messy bathrooom...sorry.

oh and look at this cute corsage frame my mom made!! I love it!!

poison.

Sonic's Vanilla Diet Coke WILL be the death of me...just for the record...

Thanksgiving break was a blast!!!! I'll update when I get to my laptop back in p-town.

look what i found...

I love this picture. I'm on the left and my sis is on the right. It's crazy how we're only 11 months apart. 3 more days till I go home for Thanksgiving. :)

Happy Birthday Dad!

Luckily I have an awesome brother who calls and gives me the play by play when birthdays occur while I'm away. I will always love him for that!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!

10 reasons why I love my dad...

1.) He gives the best advice. It's his Job ;)

2.) When he calls me his baby. I am and will always be his baby. (I love being the youngest)

3.) He is the most accepting and caring man I know!

4.) I love when he makes peanut butter/honey and banana sandwiches and then dips it in milk.

I'ts so disgusting!! haha, but its funny watching him eat it!!

5.) Going on family trips to the beach are my favorite! He is a professional wave rider.

6.) I love sitting next to him in church when he plays with my hair. His favorite is when it's blonde.

7.) I love when he comes into my room on BYU game mornings and starts singing the fight song! "rise and shout the cougars are out, their on their way to fame and glory!"

8.) I also love watching him watch those BYU football games. The house is always filled with the LOUDEST commentary. He's either excited, or PIST. haha

9.) I love going with him to hit balls at Canyon Gate. He's a great golfer!

10.) I love christmas morning, going into their room with my sis and waking him and my mom

up. He is always so excited and ready with the video camera.

11.) He has never been one to judge anyone or their situation! I don't remember one homeless, or beggar ever being left empty handed.

I love you dad!

fancy shmancy.

Wishin... these beauties were not SO overpriced!! It's a bit out of hand.

I cant help but notice the advertisement though...

"Presenting Tiffany's Keys:

An Intriguing Invitation.

A Revealing Discovery.

A Promise of Adventure.

A Whispered Romance.

A Question Answered.

A Secret Kept."

That is one good Sales Pitch.

I wish I was creative enough to be in Business Advertising.

What a fun job!

halloween weekend. :)

My little "Bad Witch"

Being home in Vegas this weekend was SO fun. I got to spend Halloween with my nieces and family and it was so great! My mom made Chile and Carmel apples, and Zoe and I went trick or treating. Well at least attempted...haha. We got to the 3rd, house and she looked at me and said, "Leah, can we just go back home? I just wanna watch TV with Papa." I was shocked...haha, I told her that she would miss out on all the candy and that Papa was watching boring football, and she just replied, "that's okay, lets go watch football with Papa." haha, shes so funny.

On sunday they came over and brought their new little Kitty, "Tink". She's the sweetest. I love cats!

My mom also suprised me this weekend and re-decorated my whole room, I LOVE it. It's finally all grown up and pretty! Not like a 12 year olds room! haha, Secretly I think she re-decorated it so I don't leave home again anytime soon when I move back! :) I miss her!!

I love Taylor Andrews!

I'm really starting to realize what a great school and family I belong to with Taylor Andrews! What other school has world renowned guest artists once a month!? This year we have had...Peter Mahoeny, Faatemah Ampey, Philip Wilson, Nicholas French, Geno Stampora, Yosh, Babek, Keith Bryce, Eric Fisher, Jake Garn, and others that I am forgetting! I have learned so much, and I'm so greatful I can learn from and watch such amazing artists! Today North American Hairstylist of the year and Vidal Sasson trained, PHILIP WILSON came to our school and announced he is joining forces with Larry, and is now part owner in Taylor Andrews!! I know this doesn't sound very exciting, but I'm so stoked!! He is amazing! He innovated the art of Free-form cutting, and he is so talented!!

Faatemah this morning

Phillip Wilson today :)

Amber was the model

I love Fall!!

Tonight was the best. I made my mom's Chili. it was DELISH, and then for FHE we carved pumpkins...Katelin and I carved Michael Jackson's face into ours...it didn't work out too well. You can see the idea though right?? hahahhh

Here are 2 reason's why i love my roomates...

4 months and counting...update...

Im a bad blogger. I need to update.

I went home this weekend. I LOVE VISITING HOME! I guess I've been a little homesick...so that was nice. I had a "wonderful" 3 hour visit at the dentist, and got my hair done!!! :)

So I'm set to be done with school mid-February and I cant wait!!! School has been great lately. I'm finally starting to be more comfortable with color and I'm feeling pretty good about my cuts. I guess I wont be totally comfortable till I'm in the salon without my Instructors checking everything off. :) but hey, that will be the day.

Provo life is just grand. hah! Im trying to make the best of it!! It's COLD. already. thank goodness it has only snowed once. I guess it could be worse.

Me and my girlfrannnnns at school today...their cute, and happy ALL the time. I love it. How could I be a downer or grumpy with their cute faces around me all day?

Tomorrow's forecast in Provo, Utah.

park day/bridal falls

Today was a blast. The salon was closed today and the whole school went up to Vivianne Park in Provo canyon and had such a fun day! We had a BBQ and played an intense game of kickball and water balloon games. I love the days we have like this because, It always gives us something to look forward to. and brings us closer as a school. After we left the park me, Amber, Natalie, and Cambri went down to the falls and climbed up a ways. The water was freezing! :)
