Deer Hunt

so its deer hunting season.. and im missing out on my favorite time of year :(

fall has always been my favorite with all of the football games, hunting season and the cold wheather starting to show up, and all of the leaves changing colors!

but of course cali is just to cool and there is not much color change, everything is just kinda geenish yellow instead of the pretty red gold and orange, and even the brown! i miss utah!

and its been raining a lot and im just waiting for the snow to start falling and then i just keep remembering that im in california.. and snow just doesnt happen.

i have never craved the snow so bad in my life.

its funny to watch everyone here freak out over the rain and start wearing their uggs and pull out the winter clothes and alex (hes from north dakota) and i are still in flip flops and t shirts.

its crazy!! but its still fun and im loving the rainy gloomy days :)

so braden and laci were kinda competeing to see who was going to get the biggest dear and braden won, by like half a antler haha

here is bradens. he got him right in the shoulders and shattered them both with one shot! pretty awesome if i say so myself. definitely proud of him :)

and here is laci's! she also got him in one shot, not sure where though but im super proud of her too!!

sad that im missing out on everything at home, and that i missed all of bradens football games this season, but im also so excited that i am going to culinary school in california at the best culinary school in the country!

its so insane and its still kinda a surreal experience but i wouldnt trade it for the world!

weekends in st helena

Weekends in St. Helena are BORING! there is nothing to do here because everyone i hang out with us under 21.. and well we are in wine country.. so we tend to make our own fun.

and really that is just sitting in murphy and alex's room being loud and obnoxious!

other than being bored on the weekends, we are in class. We just got done with our 3rd block of classes!! our first block was Intro to Gastronomy, Culinary Math, and Writing. second was Product Knowledge, and Food Safety. and our third block was Baking Ingredients and Equpiment Technology, and Nutrition. We werent supposed to have nutrition until later and we were supposed to have principles of design.. but our teach got sick so they had to switch the schedule around a little bit so we had a week of 4 hour nutrition classes. it was rough! But with our first real baking class we were finally able to start getting into the kitchen. we mostly did experiments and chef brown did a lot of demos.. but it was still fun.

our next block starts tomorrow and im kinda nervous but really excited. we start our culinary skills class with chef tucker, and he is pretty awesome! we are all really excited that we finally get to get out hands dirty :) the best part of this block is that we go to class for a week, then its worlds of flavor and we are having a bunch of japanese chefs come to the school so we dont have school all next week and my mom dad and brother are coming out!! the we have school for two more weeks and then its THANKSGIVING!!!!!! i cant wait. im so excited to go home!

oh and im finally 19! i celebrated my birthday on the 19h and just hung out with friends, it was weird not having my family around, but it was still fun, today is my friend alexs birthday so were partying it up tonight :)

but thats about all thats going on so here are just some recent pics

love you all
