me and bri bri at the byu game...so cute!!!

lookin lovely



hey hey. just wanted to write another quick update. life is going well, and i'm still living in the boot. :) haha. as you can tell by my picture, my style is looking really great with it...especially with a skirt on. anyway - i can't believe it's already the middle of november! holy smokes. i only have a few short weeks left of school, and then it'll be christmas break! horray! :) should be great. i can't wait for the holidays...it'll be good to have chelsie home as well . for all of you that don't already know, chels and i are planning to live together winter semester, which should be great! i'm just not really feeling it with my roommates lately, so it's time for a change. the whole "boy situation" hasn't really gone anywhere...however, mom has made it a hobby to give my cell phone number to random boys calling the house...you'll have to ask her about that one. :) but yeah - just going out with random people here and there - it's all fun. anyway - i'm still keeping busy. it was fun to come home this past weekend and spend some time with the caldwells and rudy. cam and i even ran into jake and bev at walmart! haha. random. anyway - i'm still in the boot for another 2-4 weeks, and i can't run for another 6 weeks. kinda boring, but i'm trying to stay conditioned with biking and swimming (i take the boot off...) :) the only problem is living on the 3rd floor...i hate the stairs. other than that, things are great! go cougars...they better kick utah's butt in two weeks! can't wait!

BOOT scootin boogie


hey hey. just thought i'd give another update on how things are going lately. in case any of you were unaware, apparently i hurt my foot in some crazy way. it's been bothering me for over a month now, so i finally got it checked out by the doc. after x-rays and whatnot, they put me in this ugly boot!!! ugh. anyway - i'm getting an MRI tomorrow to make sure it's not too bad, or else surgery will occur. pray that it won't be necessary! i'm pretty sure it's not terrible, but apparently i've just stretched my ligaments out a bunch on the top of my foot, and they have to make sure they aren't torn. what i have is called lisfranc - or something. who knows. anyway - now i'm styling with my massive boot, and i'm the loudest, slowest walker ever! i'm pretty sure the people two floors below us can hear me clunking around the kitchen. apparently it makes for a great conversation starter, however, because random people on campus will just come up to me and ask me what happened and stuff. kinda crazy, but anything's possible here at the Y. anyway - i really should be studying for my interior design class instead of updating this, but i thought i'd give a shout-out and see how y'all were doing. hopefully i'll post again soon with great news from the MRI...just keep your fingers crossed!!! oh yeah - and another interesting fact about tara is that this past week my roommates and i had a little bet or dare going on. i was wanting to see if it was possible for me to jump from my bed to hydee's bed (which is probaby about 8 feet or so) without hitting my head on the low ceiling, or falling off. anyway - hydee didn't think it was possible, so all my roommates came in and we took a poll. ashley was the only one who believed in me, and the others thought it to be totally impossible. of course my competitive side came out, and i was gonna show those girls that i could do it. my first attempt wasn't terrible, but i kinda landed on my stomach on the edge of the bed, leaving a great red line for a few days. i finally figured out that the sheets on my bed were too slippery, and moved those, allowing me to get my bearings. i finally took my leap, diving onto hydee's bed before ash and i celebrated our victory. kinda fun. anyway - just in case you guys were doubting...i can jump from one bed to another. it's a talent, but apparently i was born to do it.
are we sexy 80's babes or what?? i thought so too...this was for our ward halloween party

this truck is amazing!!! props to daddy for finally buying one. he already gave me the keys!!!

well now that i've got this thing figured out, i guess i can make frequent posts, eh? it's monday afternoon and i'm sitting on my couch, soaking in the fact that i DON'T have to work tonight, and i DON'T have studying to do! woot woot. such a rare occasion. anyway - things are wonderful down here in provo. it was great to be ablt to go home yesterday for just a bit to see everyone. nick and elisa - i'm so glad i caught you guys too! that was fun. and if anyone wants to know what's going on in my "love life" right now, just ask them, because they were present when dad was questioning me up the wazoo!!! i'm basically just going out with a bunch of different guys - a few on the track team - but it's great. i'm also playing on an intramural coed volleyball team that starts up this week, so i'm excited for that. we're definitely "in it to win it"...i'm hoping to get a t-shirt from this one. ;) anyway, it's as freezing as can be at byu, and i'm thinking it's just going to get colder, so it's a good thing i just got boots! i went to the byu game against eastern washington on saturday (what a blow-out) and thought i was going to die with the blizzard! good thing i was prepared with my huge knit hat and numerous layers of clothing. anyway - i'm still pluggin away here, and hoping to make it through the rest of this semester. i usually love my job, but sometimes the players get the best of me when they complain all the time....the things i do to earn money! j/k. but i'm doing well, and things are good. hope to see you all again soon. especially cami with her pointy tummy! :)

Does this really work???

Wow - this whole blog thing is so new to me...so I just thought I'd try to post something and see if it works. Provo is awesome, and track is going great. I actually feel like I know how to pole vault now!!! yay. 2008 Olympics, here I come! Anyway, hope you all are doing great. I'm excited to get this thing up and running!
