Oh yeah! I have a blog. Whoops!

So... yeah... it's been like 5 months. Sorry guys. I guess I just didn't feel the need to update when I saw you guys all summer. But I'm doing it now that I'm back in the bubble, also known as Provo, UT. So here are a few shots from family vacation and then a few from my first week back.
I just love this shot of me and Savvy. We were just hanging out under the little easy-up (which wasn't so easy to keep-up) and we just decided that we would take a few pictures together. It was her idea, so I ran with it :D She looks a little scared/confused, but I still think it's cute. Plus, her cheeks look awesome. So yeah.
I just love this picture of Davis because it just illustrates that he loves the beach, but is just a little terrified of the water, so he just hangs out in the sand :D He's so dang cute! Also, I just love that his life jacket is basically bigger than he is.
I don't know if you can see the bucket on the right, but its there. This just goes to show you the genius of Owen Russell. He is so funny! I love how smart he is. I want to know if any of the adults there would have actually thought of that. He is just hilarious.
So this is Michelle and I at Tacano's BEFORE we ate. Tacano's is this awesome Brazilian grill that's only in about 3 locations is Utah. It's this place where you just sit at a table, and all the waiters and waitresses come by with huge plates of meat and you try all the different kinds. We asked the guy and he said that there are 18 different kinds of meat and then 2 seafood dishes. It's interesting because you get little tiny pieces, but by the time you're done, you are SO full...
Hence this picture AFTER we ate. (Well, Michelle didn't eat the meat, but she did eat a lot of salad and grilled pineapple.) But everybody else had faces like this. We took pictures of everybody that went and their "After Tacano's" faces. It was pretty classic. But it was way fun. Brother Miles was nice enough to treat us all to dinner. It was yummy! We as the meat-eating Dix Family would love that place.
This is Ilarene, Michelle, and I at the first game of the season. BYU vs. NO. Iowa. We won, of course. It was a pretty good game. But the real game was yesterday vs. UCLA (I will post pictures later - I already uploaded this photos yesterday morning and I don't like when they get out of order :D Yeah I know I'm weird)
This is Michelle and I utilizing my favorite feature on my camera. Pulling out the fact that we have Cougar spirit and were wearing white and blue. I just think this picture is funny. No real meaning to it :D

So school is great so far. I am really excited for this semester, I know its going to be great. Really challenging and I won't have a life this semester, but I'm going to enjoy it. I got to buy scrubs for my cadaver dissection lab and it was so fun. It's awesome because I put them on in the bathroom outside my classroom and I looked at myself and said "this is what you have to look forward to for the rest of your life... get used to it :D" But I felt really good about it. So I guess that's a good thing. But I've got to finish getting ready for church, I will update sooner or later. LOVE AND MISS YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!!!
