January
My family moved from Burlington, Kansas to Buckeye, Arizona! I turned 20 two days before Zac...and broke up with him on fb to scare some people. hahahha We had some fun.
February
I was in "The Importance of Being Earnest" with Utah Shakespeare in the Park and got engaged to my very very best friend, Zac Hickman.
Gosh, I love them.
March
I had some fun in my first makeup class, found my wedding dress, and wondered if I should keep pursuing an acting major.
April
I finished up the hardest semester of my life, did my proficiency audition, and found out I was ready to move on. I said goodbye to my wonderful roommates: Emily, Amber, Lori, and Hannah. I went back to Arizona to be with my family before getting hitched!
Arizona chicken. Odd.
May
I went on a road trip with mom and Julie to Kansas to see my brother graduate high school. I got to meet up with some old amazing awesome friends, including Wooge. I went to California to visit Zac for the first time in three and a half months. I also touched a sea urchin for the first time ever! :O I then came back to Arizona to do some last minute wedding planning with mommy.

June
Mom and I made a road trip out to California together the week of the wedding and HAD A BLAST. We stopped by a huge outlet mall somewhere in California where I found a dress for both the honeymoon and the day of my endowment session. Lots of crazy things happened that week: dates, cake testing, reception decorating, friends flying out, and mass confusion/excitement. But it all came down to the best day of my life:
I was married on June 24, 2011 in the Los Angeles Temple to Zac Hickman.
And then four days later, on our honeymoon in Hawaii, he did a back flip into a pool hit his head and was rushed to the hospital. He didn't remember us getting married. He didn't remember me for a while. Oh, wow. Biggest scare of my life.
Do not approve.
>:(
July
I started to get used to the word "wife" and "husband." We came home from Hawaii, took a break in Arizona with my fam, and then went back to California so Zac could work before we headed off to school. We saw the 3am showing of HP7p2!
A Hawaiian cave. o.O
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
We got to watch the 4th of July fireworks on a beach in Hawaii.
Luckiest girl ever is me.
Harry Potter happy excited satisfied obsessed ecstatic faces.
5:30 am, don't judge.
August
Zac, Poter, and I went to see Ludo live in LA! AMAZING.
Zac, Karen, Stephanie, and I loaded up the car and drove from California to Utah. We stopped by Vegas and had a great time! (No gambling or booze drinking for me and Zac! haha) BYU started and I figured out I wanted to be a playwriting major and an English minor. :)
September
I was cast in a one act play, "The Stronger" by August Strindberg.
We rehearsed for 3 weeks then it went up in early October.
Definitely changed my life.
October
We carved pumpkins with Emily and Tim!
I was a zombie for Halloween.
November
I got to see my dad for the first time in a year and a half for Thanksgiving. We rode a Greyhound bus to Colorado from Utah.
I.Hate.Buses.
December
We wrapped up our finals, celebrated Emily and Tim getting married, enjoyed our 6 month anniversary and had our first Christmas together!
I also learned how to do a hairbow.
:)
An amazing year, to say the least. The best is yet to come, methinks.
I'm ready for you 2012.
