Snow Bash...

Last week Monday, my sister Lindsay came down to finish a book about my Aunt Vickie who died at a young age. She has been working on this for a very long time. And I might add it turned it amazing! Good job Lindsay!! Well on Monday I got off work and had to drive in the crazy storm and went home to my parents. I walked inside to see my nieces little shoes. I love playing with my nieces and nephews. And when they come to visit I get so excited. Well I found out later Lindsay, Molly and Stella were going to sleep over. Well I had a blast watching the kids and just hanging with the family. What a fun family time!! :) I love my family I have the best family! Sorry to those who think theirs are...but mine are. I love that I am close to all my siblings and all the kids and in-laws. I love just being there with them.

Time for a change

Last night my best friend/roommate and I got the impression to change our room. We first started out with wanting different things. Then we went in and talked about what we wanted and agreed with everything. How nice, no argument or anything. I really wanted to change it that night, she didn't. We then talked about it and realized probably the night to do it. I must be like my mother..when I think of a new project no matter what time it is I will start on it. We moved our beds, dressers, desk, Valerie's stand thing and nightstand thing. Which trust me it was not as easy as I thought it was going to be. We had a blast of fun doing it. We picked out some posters we wanted to hang up in our room. And ways we could improve our room. I love our new set up. I feel its more us then the other way we had. Now when people walk through the front door they don't see my bed first..they see dressers. Oh I love it. I'll have to take a picture and post it. But we love it. The fact that both of us love it, is major plus. We finished with the project about 12:30am and didn't go to bed till like 1:30 am because we had to show our other roommate who was up, and got in a lovely conversation. Oh I love changes. Well most changes. :)

ROOMMATES!

This past week has been a little sad for our Apartment. We have 2 girls moving out, Katie and Ally. They will be greatly missed. They added fun to this apartment. Them leaving means we get 2 new roommates this coming semester. I can only wonder who they are and what they are like, if we will ever be close to them. Its hard to decide. Also my roommate Amber went home for the holidays to Arizona. I am so happy she will be with family but I will miss her. Along with my best friend Valerie Fox. Luckily she will be gone for a week then we will be reunited. I love my roommates, and I am excited for the new ones.
Another goal my roommates and I decided we were going to do this semester, is invite different apartments over each week get to know them and play games. I am excited for this event. I'd love to get to know more people in my ward. And what a fun way to do it.
Well the reason I wanted to share these things about my roommates is for them. I want to tell the ones that are leaving, I love them and will miss them. I want to tell the new ones, I am excited to get to know you and we are going to have so much fun, and crazy nights. And the ones that will still be here, I am excited to continue living with you girls and excited for more crazy adventures with you all.

Amber (roommates) Birthday

Us At PF Changs!

On December 4th Amber Martin turned 21! Woot! She is one of my beloved roommates. I love her, she makes this apartment so much better. Without her..we would probably not laugh as much. On her birthday we went to PF Changs and ate DELICIOUS food! Then we went to the playground by Orem Library and just played. With my luck I ran into a pole that gave me a headache for 3 days. Not a very fun thing. We all had a blast just playing. We were sad one of our roommates (katie) couldn't join us. Her soccer team had a big game. After we were done on the swings it was only 9. We headed over to Trafalga where me, Katheryn Elizabeth Baird, won them all in mini golf. Don't worry when I hit the ball, I have to tell everyone to move. ha ha, who knows where my ball will land. I was shocked I was the winner in the end. But that's not even the cool part...Last hole, the toilet seat, I made it! Which means I get a free game next time I go. Woot! Yay me! We had a blast. I just hope Amber had as much fun as I did.

1. Me being cute, ha ha that was a few seconds after I hit my head on the lame bar. 2. Valerie and I on the swings :) 3. Me and Birthday girl mini golfing it up.

Breakfast/Angel

The Saturday after Thanksgiving my whole Scott Baird Family gather to eat breakfast and shop for 2 kids who will not receive Christmas. One of my favorite Traditions! We start at 9 and have the most delicious breakfast (not close to Christmas morning breakfast, that's even 10 times better) and split into teams, which McKenzie usually splits us. We get into our teams and we get our job for one of the kids. The reasons why we do this tradition is 1. Giving someone a Christmas is the best feeling. 2. We do this instead of giving gifts to each other. Well this year we had enough to do 6 teams. Our team of course won. Just kidding. This is not a race. Although we did finish fast and got the cutest things for the little 18 month child. I just love having us all together and serving these little children. I got the opportunity to take them to the mall to give to the lady who will give the children what we got. My mom and I just saw all these names still on the tree and hoped that they will get picked off the tree and get served. I am so lucky that I will have a Christmas. There are people out there who won't, I am just so lucky! Team #1 Mom & Abby Team #2 McKay, Tanya & Sierra Team #3 Whitney, Cameron & Me Team #4 Kimball, Craig & Kris Team #5 Josie, McKenzie & Molly Team #6 Dad, Lindsay & Stella

Thanksgiving!!

Thanksgiving for the Baird's is AMAZING!! I have 9 Aunts and Uncles, one Aunt died at age 16. And this year most of my Aunts and Uncles came, We had a blast. We ate played Bingo, and then got kicked out. Turned out we had someone after us. Which was kind of weird, but Thanksgiving was a blast while it lasted with all the extended family. I have the best family in the whole wide world. And I love getting together on Thanksgiving and being grateful for all my family and more. What a good time of the year to remember all the things we are grateful for. I hope you all thought of at least 5 things you are grateful for.
My top 5 are;
1. My family, they all do such much for me. Always supportive of me. Push me to do better. They always show love for me no matter if I make a big or small mistake. I love them all.
2. The Gospel, how lucky I am to have the Gospel in my life. Thankful that my parents are teaching me the truth of religion. And having this gives me guide lines everyday. How lucky am I to have that?
3. Micah, my senior year I felt lost. I didn't know where I was going what I should do. My friends were kind of not my friends. I was always like 3rd wheel or 5th wheel. I felt I was not wanted any where. That is when one of my friends introduced me to Micah. Micah Wiederhold helped me feel cool again. He had become my best friend. He was such a great supporter. And he would and always sticks up for me. He made me myself again. And I am so grateful for that.
4. Roomates, my roommates this semester are GREAT! I love them. They always put up with me and always just let me talk to them about all the things going on in my life. I know they probably have worse problems, but they don't interrupt they just listen and help me through it. My roommate Valerie, is one of my BEST supporters. She is one of my best friends and she always listens. Even if it lasts till 2 in the morning.
5. Food and Water, these are things we need to live. And I am grateful for them. Things to make us healthy if we use them in the right way. We are lucky.
I had the opportunity to have my roommate Amber and my neighbor/family friend Airi over for Thanksgiving. I hope they enjoyed it. I loved having them there.
After the whole feast. My sister Lindsay and her husband Kris came over and we all got to hang out. Just talk about everything it was great fun! I am so lucky to have a family like the family I do. :)

Oh Ghetto!

The Tuesday before Thanksgiving, I was getting in my car headed for my house. Before I could go anywhere my car (ghetto) atomatically stopped. I tried to start it again, and nothing. It was completely dead. My mother got stuck coming to pick me up. Later that day my handy brother-in-law Craig came to try to jump it. Key word TRY to jump it. Ghetto wouldn't even start. I was sad, just knowing the problem was worse mad me upset. Well all week my sister Whitney got stuck driving me around. So thank you Whitney for putting up with me and taking me to where I needed to be. Yesterday Ghetto was finally towed to get checked out. I have not heard any news yet. I just have bad luck with cars. ha. And Ipods and phones. ha. I am hoping my car will just make it. I hope it is not dead forever :)
