OK so the one of mom is of her taking pictures of the flowers outside my favorite building...and the one of Dad is of him watching her take pics. They are so sweet...I hope someday have that in a marriage...such a good example! Then the building that is in construction is our very own Rexburg ID temple!!! It will be done in Sep...i have never lived this close to a temple before...it is right up the street...3 minutes away!!! I am soo excited. The one fo Dan is a pic in my fav spot in the gardens we have on campous. The students have jobs to upkeep the gardens and classes that do upkeep as well..the gardens are rather large..my fav spot is this fountain with lilies floating in it...lilies are my thrid fav flower....roses, then daffodils, then lilies.

Then there is a pic of everyone laughing ...we do that alot together...and then one of matt being goofy..man i miss them already! Well gtg....I love you all. MWAH! Jess

The steaming rock is Old faithful before the blow. Then the pic with the ton of steam..or at least it looks like..well if you look closely to the left side of all that steam you will see it is actually a tower of water...really high in the air..this is old faithful in action! Then the pic of the kids is my cute siblings all watching old faithful..can you see how wet they are? it started raining 20 minutes before the big event and continued for some time after it blew as well! Then I put in a pic of the crowd from my angle...lots and lots of people!!!! OK well that is jsut some for yellowstone....MWAH! Jess

My Best Friends Wedding

We watched the sunrise on her wedding day and although i don't have pics of that I do have pics from the night before when we were all hanging out in her hotel room( her family paid..wasn't that nice!) Me and my other best friend liz shared a bed so katie could sleep her last few single nights alone. We made a midnight run to wendys one night...for a shake and fries...then we drove around town with the windows down and the music up!! we were in bountiful utah. The temple was so beautiful and the day was pretty just a bit too hot for all those involved in the picture taking. The first pic to the left is me, katie( she is the one in the black) katies cousin and lu...we like lu..lu is the one on the right on the bed...and obviously me. The pic on the rigt top is katie and jerom just outside the temple as they came out...they looked so happy. The othe rpic is my two best friends beign silly and mimicking this really cute wedding pic we saw when we met with her photographer...liz is on the left and katie the right. OK so more later.

I have a lot of pics from the fourth of july but you will have to wait until this weekend when I have more time to load them on. Just know that I had a great time and life is still wonderful. And to help you all feel proud of me (I feel proud of me...plus I figured out that mom and dad were always right)...my midterm grades came through (which means I have finished the classes I was in and have started new ones...this only happens in the summer semester though..confused?...heehee) 4.0 that was my GPA. All A's. Well I gotta go I have class in 45 min and I have to pick up my fencing uniform. MWAH!

Weding

heheh..got you all with the title! Shame on all fo you for thinking this blog was about me!! hehe. Anywho...my friend got married this weekend...i was down in utah so i could do my best friendly duties. It was kinda sad to know she wasn't like us anymore. She looked so happy when she came out of the temple. So that made up for it all! Well it was a lot of fun, we drove around the night before the night before her wedding ( no i did not repeat myself) and got a midnight frosty and fries from wendys. Then we drove around town with the windows down and singing along, quite loudly, with our music. It was fun. Then we watched the sunrise on her wedding day..cause thats what katie wanted. Ok well thats all for now. I love you all! MWAH!
