Christmas Break

I hope everyone had a wonderfully blessed Christmas! As I did! 
Just relaxed around the house with the family. I'm 'attempting' to catch up on relaxation because when I go back to school next week, I won't get much time to sit and relax. 

My boyfriend, Grayson, got my a digital camera because I didn't have one! 
Its  beautiful and just what I wanted!!

My parents got me some lovely things! (And the car from the previous post!)

Here are a few pictures I snapped of objects && the wonderful WHITE Christmas that we were able to experience!






 I used to play this game on Nintendo 64 and LOVED it so I asked Dad to buy it for me (:
 What's black and white with red all over????
Have a wonderfully safe New Years!!!

NEW CAR!!!

As most of you know, I have been driving the White Ford Ranger that my parents gave to me on my 18th birthday. Well, as this was exactly what I wanted at the time, it has proven to be a gas-guzzler and some things don't work the way they should sometimes. Well... in lieu of Mom's car dying, they bought me a new, more snow-functioning car!!!! 






Its perfect! AWD, 4cyl, ect. And since Boone just got a total of 17 inches of snow in the past three days, it seems very fitting!! 


Also, today marks the end of my exams. I took my last one at 9oclock this morning and can soon hopefully say that I made Dean's List once again.


I can't wait to see some of you very soon!!! 
Much love!

Walking in a Winter Wonderland

Hello everyone!!! 

We lost against Florida but we played very hard. 
This past Saturday, we played Western Illinois in the Second Round of the playoffs and this coming up weekend we are playing Villanova. Should be very interesting!! 


Well, we are sort of stuck in a winter wonderland at the moment. It has been snowing since Friday and have ceased to let up! Which is very unfortunate because I start my finals today and it is pouring snow. 

Today's climate: 19 degrees with a -1 windchill, snowing, with gusts up to 50 mph. 
We aren't expected to reach over 20 degrees until Friday. 
I know this is what Aunt Teresa lives through for about 6 months of the year but for someone like me that doesn't really get to experience snow, its quite fun :) (Minus the wind) 


This is a link that I found on the Appalachian Website that allows you to see what our conditions are like:

Also, this is one for the main intersection in town:

I look forward to seeing most of you in a few weeks!!! 
8 days until finals are done!
