Harry Potter

Today while walking to class I realized I have an almost unhealthy obsession with Harry Potter. I just relate everything I see to it! I just love everything about the Harry Potter series: Hogwarts, the magic, the plot, the characters, good vs. evil, etc. (I could go on all day!!)

The other day I got my hair done and I came out blonder than expecter (or maybe even wished for, I haven't decided) and immediately I thought, "now I look like Luna Lovegood..." haha. And then yesterday when I formed this blog and saw that I had "followers" I thought, "The Dark Lord!!!" I think I was meant to go to Hogwarts and not BYU....I'm not sure where I went wrong. But yes, I may be obsessed with Harry Potter and right now I am almost done re-reading the 7th book :)

Last Halloween and my amazing HP pumpkin!!

Two posts in a day, this must be insanity!! No, it's just a Christmas miracle :)

So today we got a little "crazy in the kitchen" haha and the hallway. It looks like we live at the North Pole with Buddy the Elf!! And I love it! It's really starting to feel like christmas already!


 The christmas tree from home!!

 They both went under the mistletoe and settled for a hug :) how cute

 FHE!! Making snowflakes and sledding :)



 Our hallway just makes me smile everytime I walk down. It's so cute!! This place doesn't seem so ugly or as bland when we have it all decked out for the holidays :)
Ah! The snow is coming down on my face!! haha


Welcome!

Welcome to my blog!! After much prodding from siblings and friends, I have caved and formed this wonderful new friend of mine. As you can see my blog is called, "life as we know it". I love this phrase that people use every day of their lives. We don't know everything there is to know about life but we learn new things every day and I love that! One thing you'll probably hear me talk about a whole lot is my sister Marquel! She's 3 and is just the biggest joy in my life. I love her sooooo much!! haha

So today I came home from a hard day of school and watched some AMAZING RACE!! That show is so great! I just love how it reminds me of Nat and Bee and how they all picked people to root for and then would just laugh and say, "oh man look at her arms flailing about, Bradford that's your team" haha oh Mallory. Going to Nat's to watch it all together was definitely a fun experience :) today while walking back to heritage I saw this in the snow:

Animals in heritage? I am determined to catch whatever species this may be if it's the last thing I do! Maybe put out some food and then technically have a pet that isn't against the honor code because it lives outside :) See mom, Santa never gave me a puppy for Christmas when it's all I've asked for since we gave Moose away so this is what I'm resorting to. haha

So next week I'm headed to the Allred concert! I'm so excited! Here's a picture of me at his last concert. I am so excited for this Christmas one! His music is just awesome. I'm sure some of you are sick of me talking about it all the time. haha But even so, here's one of his covers :)

While my ears are dying from frostbite down here in Provo, I hope this is satisfying for everyone for a first post :) Have a great week!
