I like Feet?

Well to tell you all the truth I like my feet. And just feet in general. I have no idea why people are self conscious about their feet... 
When I eventually get married (which is not anytime soon... I hope you all know), I'm actually looking forward to rubbing my husbands feet. 
Feel free to think I'm weird, but I'm oddly very excited about it!

Now I'm finally going home this weekend!
I can't wait.
Did I ever mention how much I LOVE my family??
Its weird being away from them for so long, Sweden is going to be a killer.
But still such an awesome experience at the same time!!
I've had to work the past 3 Sundays (hard I know, right??) and couldn't go to church, or home.
Since I got this second job, its been tough on my Golden Corral job.
I love working there, don't get me wrong... I just changed my availability date, and Golden Corral didn't work me once this week. Not once.
I was extremely sad and frustrated! I need to work people... Like everyone else haha.

Tonight I was on a date, and we played a fun game! I'll try to explain it, and post some pictures so you'll hopefully get an idea.
Jared attempting to bite the bag.
A paper bag is set in the middle of a room (that is easily tear-able), and each person reaches down and bites it.... Without touching the floor with their hands, knees, etc. Feet and only :)
After you bite the bag, you tear off a little section. Eventually the bag gets smaller and smaller, like you see in the picture.
There were only 4 of us, but the girls won! The first to fall is out, which happened to be my date ha!
Haha I made fun of him soooo bad. Hopefully he will ask me out again after that!
I'd highly recommend this game, it was a blast.
While I was reaching down with my mouth, my jaw popped. And it still hurts... darn it.
So if you do play, be careful!
It can get dangerous.

Next we made snowmen... out of ice cream! Haha they were really pathetic looking snowmen, but extremely fun.
We used sour gummy worms as the hair and mouth, and bottle caps for eyes!
This is Kyle and Heidi, my neighbors. Theirs was really masculine looking I believe... and squat.

Update for yesterday:

I woke up.
Drove through the beautiful canyon (I took a picture do not worry! Well I didn't, Kelsey did! I don't take pictures and drive... or drink and drive for that matter. I don't even drink....).
Went to my dentist appointment (early that morning), and he told me I may need a root canal so he put me on antibiotics, to see if the infection could heal.
Next I traveled to the hospital to visit my dear father to show him my lumpish thing on my hip bone.
Of course he told me not to worry about it, and all will be fine!
We ate lunch together.
Along with his coworkers Mike and.... Ahmad.
Fun!
I ate a cheeseburger, with fries, a salad, and a lemonade if you really wish to know my diet.
I love cheeseburgers. I would love to have a life supply of them.
Then I got a flu shot, in the middle of January... so random.
I asked the nurse about this thing on my hip, and she told me to get "it" checked out by a specialist.
Sorry if I mention "it" too much, it is really getting on my nerves.
Did I mention how much I hate swimming suits?? Because I do greatly despise them.
No matter what I wear, I feel like some kind of cow maybe?
Hippo?
Elephant?
You get the idea.
Well I tried some on at Kohls, because my mother has a fabulous discount!
Next on my agenda: rush Kelsey back to Logan, because she didn't know she had to work.
She came down with me and spent the day with her family!
There ya go. All of the wonderful events in the life of Mollie.

All grossed out....

Two weeks ago today (Monday) I was down in Provo visiting some fantastic friends.
Nothing special, I went down to accompany Talesha, mainly and to "hang out".
Well. We went ice skating!
Myself, Talesha, and Autumn.
I was getting the hang of it, it took quite some time! I'm not gonna lie.
The whole time I was attempting to ice skate I had a thought in my head:
"How in the flip do all these young children know how to ice skate so well?!"
I found out I am a horrible ice skater.
You see, I have a hard enough time walking on the ground, so I guess you could say the ice was difficult.
Towards the end I was finally gaining some speed, and being able to beat a 6 year old when I ate it.
Hard.
I don't know what I was thinking of that made me lose my concentration like that...
All I could think about was trying to get up, trying not to cry, and trying very hard not to barf all over.
Lets just say I had some awesome bruises and scars for quite some time!
But one remains, and it is grossing me out.
You see, when I fell I landed right on my left hip bone.
It hurt for quite some time, and I thought it had healed until I felt it last Wednesday.
On my hip and underneath my skin is a tube-like "thing" as thick as my pinkie, and as long as my bruise was. 
I have no idea what it is, if it's anything.
My mom told me not to freak out, and that it is probably nothing.
Eh I still am, just because I am extremely grossed out that it has not gone away.... yet.
I've been told it could be multiple things.... mainly just scar tissue.
It's weird, I've never had anything like this happen to me before!
Usually I break an arm or something very stupid along those lines.
Well, I will go have a chit chat with my father tomorrow, and we will discus the possibilities of my injury.

More updates will follow.

Cutest Dog Ever.

Isn't he just the cutest dog ever??
Let me tell you a little bit about this dog...
He thinks he rules the world, literally. 
Coco is very spoiled and a really cute personality.
He is terrified of the sound of wrapping paper and the vacuum.
In this picture I think he pooped somewhere, and he was scared of my mom.
So he put his nose through my arm and forced his way through, trying to get as far away from my mom as possible!!
He definitely loves my dad, Aj, and my mom the most.
Another VERY cute thing he does:
When you pick him up, he wraps his long face around the back side of your neck, and cuddles with you!!
Nothing can get cuter than this dog right here.

I officially love to blog. Seriously.

Well well well...
I never thought I would ever say this, but I really like my blog. Maybe a little bit too much, but whatevs (as my aunt Lisa or Jayne would say). And no I did not just change the settings again, just because I like to mess around with my blog.
Lets just say I am quite content with life at the moment :)
I didn't have to work today (at one of the best places EVER! Golden Corral), and I was able to relax most of the day. Tonight I got a fabulous, wonderful, amazing, incredible and marvelous email, which made my whole day tons better.

I am currently still saving for the wonderful Sweden :) I even resisted to buy flamin hot cheetos (with a hint of lime) last night at Wal-Mart! All of you should be very proud, I'm not gonna lie. Unfortunately I had to buy gas last night. Darn all this growing up. Sorry if I talk about Sweden too much! There are only a couple things on my mind lately, and that is one of them. Those of you who know me very well know that the 2nd thing is :)
I didn't talk much about my Christmas, did I.
Well, I have grown to really love Christmas! Growing up I started to dread all the same songs I've been hearing for almost eternity it seems like. Now I have definitely grown to LOVE everything about Christmas. I found it was a lot easier to love CHRISTmas, centering my life around Christ. I found that being a college student, its extremely easy to get self-centered. I need to save money, I need to buy this book, I need to study for this test, I need to do this homework now, I NEED to get that guys number (haha that doesn't really fit but who cares!), I need a job, I need a good paying job to pay for everything, etc... You get the point eh? So in conclusion Christmas came at the right time, just when I needed it. Also, I think its very crazy when people want to say "X-mas", it just doesn't sound right to me.

Anyways, I know I've talked about my family a lot while doing the blog challenge, but not a whole lot about my extended families! On my moms side, for our Christmas celebrations we have the "grab-bag". I'm pretty sure its been a family tradition for forever. 
We eat dinner, then put all of our chairs in one huge circle and grab a wrapped present! All the men take turns pushing a wheelbarrow around our giant circle until all the presents, that the women have wrapped previously of course, are all gone! Next we try and trade the things we're not interested in, and lets just say things can get slightly heated trying to get what everyone wants!! 
It is a great family tradition to do on Christmas eve, and we've been doing it for as long as I can remember. My grandma is such a party-animal its insane (is that where I get all my party-planning genes from?...). She loves to get us all together as a family! Man I love that lady.

Now on my dad's side, it is much smaller. All we do is eat and make fun of people my dad and aunts went to high school with! Its a lot of fun going to my aunts house, its very chill. 
We don't start all our conversations making fun of people, thats usually just how it ends. 
Aunt Jayne and Lisa if you're reading this you know its true! 
But its fun :) I like hearing about their past lives, and how my dad was the perfect child. This side of my family is awesomely-crazy, but I still love them!


Now I'm going to wrap this baby up, finally.

It. Is. Official.

SWEDEN
IS
OFFICIAL
EVERYONE.
I've had the hardest time containing my excitement, but I just can't hold it back any longer.
We leave MAY 12, 2010.
Is it just me, or is that extremely soon??
It is time to start planing this (hopefully) wonderful trip!
Like I said a little while ago we're going to be staying with TJ's family and friends.
I can't thank him enough for what he has done for me and my friends!
I would also love to thank Alyssa and her father who bought our tickets.
There will be 4 of us total, for almost THREE whole months.
More like two and a half, but still!
I can't wait to get out there and meet people.
There is no turning back now :)
