it's the last day of october!

College. Eek.

The field trip to the University Of Florida was so fun.  But now I'm even more confused about what college I want to go to!

Brigham Young University: Everybody's a member of the church. Student wards. Temples and church buildings on every corner. Mountains. My favorite state.  Return missionaries everywhere you look....:)

OR

University Of Florida: close to home and family, Bright Futures Scholarship.

I loved the feel of UF. Brick buildings, rich history, comfortable atmosphere. It was really nice.

BYU is like that too. I have dreamed of going to BYU my whole life.

Both are hard to get into. But if I don't get into BYU-Provo I will most likely get into BYU-Idaho which would be fine. I might not even get into University Of Florida.

It's so weird that I'll be applying for college this time next year. Gah. I can't get over it.

Branden got a new toy. A light saber.

It changes colors.

When it's purple, he's Mace Windu.

Red and he's Darth Maul.

This is what happened when I left the shutter open for 15 seconds:

Explosion!

Today there's no school!

I made Halloween cards for Grandma, Grandpa, my cousins and aunts and uncles.

While I listened to Michael Buble (Holiday) Pandora Station.

Now I need to go clean something. Do something productive.

Cooling Off

It's 65°F and it feels so good!


No humidity = no sweating = happy Kayla.

I tried to go on a bike ride this morning, but 10 minutes in, and my ears and hands were so cold that they were hurting. The chilly wind was too much for me. 


I went back inside to put on gloves and a hat, but decided not to go out. I hate wearing a bunch of clothing when I'm trying to get a good workout in.

So I did some jump rope instead. 

It's always around Halloween that the weather gets nice and cool and I start thinking about Thanksgiving and Christmas. I get all warm and fuzzy inside just thinking about it.

I have already started listening to Christmas music. It's never too early for "It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year" or "Baby, It's Cold Outside" or "Let It Snow".

Except I don't want it to snow. 65°F is cool enough for me.
