sushi night!

last friday night we made sushi with our housemates. it was so much fun and the sushi was delicious. we live with some pretty cool people. they are so much fun. i mean, come on, sushi night, what a fabulous idea.
i think we found a new tradition :)

(so maybe the appearance wasn't spectular, but it was still nasty.)

{a day in the life}

The Washington DC LDS Temple is absolutely magnificent.

(It's beautiful and simply divine.... just like us;)

biking

we went biking last week in the lovely autumn colors.
aren't the colors gorgeous?

thinking about....

... Christmas. yep, that's right. Christmas. it's my favorite holiday. i love everything about it.
it's the greatest time of year.
oh, Christmas, how i love you.

my sisters and me on Christmas day. i think bekah and i were 5 or 6? (l to r: rachel, hannah, naomi and bekah)

but until it's that time of year, it's study time! :)

on thursday, we traveled to richmond to see Wicked. it was absolutely amazing and so inspiring! our high expectations were definitely met.


here's a picture of us during intermission.


{don't mind the poor quality of this picture}

we stopped at a mall beforehand to grab dinner. bek got subway and i got chinese food. yum.

noodles just happen to be my favorite :)

yes, our weekend has been pretty fantastic (thank you, beautiful weather)

condensed vapor

my favorite thing about flying? taking pictures of the clouds

i might just be the kind of person that reaches over that special someone in the window seat to take pictures. just maybe.

i can't wait for the flight home at christmas! :D

having fun isn't hard

goodness, the weekend flew by!

rachel is gorgeous. the end.

highlights
general conference
camping (bekah didn't go)
