Puzzle

As many people know, my family loves to do puzzles, and I am no exception. I love doing puzzles. When I came back from break I started a puzzle. I haven't done one since summer. It was a lot of fun. One day my roommates even helped me. Carly got to frustrated and said, "I think I would rather do homework." That would be a sad day for me. I'll take a puzzle any day over homework.

Vocal Point

My roommate Helena learned that I had not been to a BYU Vocal Point Concert since attending BYU. She decided I needed to go and she got tickets for me and one of my other roommates, Leiema. It was a blast! During the show they had a competition and Leiema was one of the winners. You had to post to social media and they chose the top 3 best posts. Thanks Helena and Leiema for a fun time!

Roommates

My roommates and I finally got a picture together. It turned out so cute! I'm grateful for each one of these ladies. They are amazing examples and friends to me, and I couldn't ask for better roommates!

From Left to Right: Leiema Suitumua from America Samoa, Carly Mitchel from Texas/Utah, Me Cassy Gardner from Altamont, UT, and Helena He from China. Fun fact if you don't remember from a previous post Carly and I are 3rd cousins.

New Year's 2018

New Year's Eve was spent in Green River. We had a pretty good turn out. Aunt Mary, Uncle Boyd, Laura, Kate, Laird, Duncan, Liam, little Anna, Nathan, Amy, Ross, Easton, Sydney, Aunt Ann, Uncle Lee, Anna, Avan, Mom, Mandy, Mary, Meg, and I all partied hard. We had bagel sandwiches for dinner along with lots of other snacks for the evening. We had a puzzle contest with some National Geographic puzzles. Aunt Mary and Uncle Boyd's team won. My family came in 2nd. Nathan and Amy and their crew came in 3rd, and Aunt Ann and Uncle Lee's crew came in last. What was cool about these puzzles is at the end you could put the 4 completed puzzles together to make one giant puzzle. After that we played Reverse Charades. Then we played Celebrity, which is a lot like Time's Up but we write down celebrity names to do. At midnight McKay and Ross went outside and shot of guns to ring in the New Year. We did attempt to watch the ball drop, but we hit a button on the TV and it lost the signal and we didn't get it back on in time to watch. It was great night full of laughs, joy, and lots of memories.
