Growing Up Step 3

So, I'm pretending to grow up and move to the next stage of my life.

Step 1? Finish up college. Done. Well, almost done. I've said goodbye to Rexburg and I'll be finishing my last 4 classes online. I'll graduate from BYU-Idaho in July.

Step 2? Get an awesome job. Done. I'll start work at KKAJ on January 23rd. So excited about this.

Step 3? Buy a car. Done. Yep, I just bought this beautiful creature. Isn't she gorgeous? Yes it's a she and I'm taking suggestions for names.

After looking online for quite a while and going to a few dealerships I was so happy to find this beautiful 2009 Toyota Camry. You could say it was love at first sight. This shows my excitement:
I've never owned a car before. This is going to be fun I can tell.
Stay tuned for more growing up steps in the life of Becky Dayton...

Photogeneticy Part 2

There are so many things I want to blog about right now:
  1. Christmas -It's the 12th and I haven't done a Christmas post yet...
  2. Barb and Jessie's visit this last weekend
  3. Throwing Tia (the roommate, not brother-in-law) the coolest birthday sleepover party ever
  4. My feelings about leaving Rexburg in two days forever
  5. The fact that I'm not paying attention in class right now
Instead I'm going to write about something far less important. Remember how I posted about photogeneticy a while a go? If you don't then click here. Apparently I haven't learned anything. That's right, here's another post full of bad pictures and how they've come about....

Sometimes when you take online classes the teacher asks that you take pictures as proof that you are doing the assignment. When I took a cooking class there were some pretty ugly pictures that come out of it with me holding food with a big smile on my face. There were even some where I was half eating the food. Those turned out well. Well, this semester my roommate is taking an online Auto class. Each week she needs to teach someone what she has learned and take a picture of it. We got bored of taking the same thumbs-up-to-the-car-behind-us picture, so we got creative. Here are some of the treasure that came out of it...
Ew...
Windy Rexburg
Fuses
Too bright. Also where did Danielle go?
I'm not in this picture, but it had to be included

So there are a couple of treasures to make your day. Thanks Danielle for having an online auto class that required us to take such awesome pictures.

New Game

My family is cool. Why? Well for one, they keep giving me adorable nieces and nephews! For another, they are the only ones who read my blog, so it's okay the following pictures and videos are posted. BUT the main reason they're cool is because they make up games. Like the massage competition game. Wow that really needs a new name. Any ideas family?

Here are the judges preparing to give a score from 1-10. (By the way Chris and Chrissy were the winners.)
The competition in progress...
Here's round one of the competition. We had no idea what was about to happen....
The boys were less excited to do this competition so here was their payback....
Why Marie gave baby hands a 7 is totally beyond me. So, I think the boys were hoping that now we won't ask for another massage competition. Wrong-o. I have to play it again and again not just for the massages, but for my self esteem. I have to move out of my last place ranking...
