Long Time No Talk!


Hey folks!!!! Sorry I haven't been typing like a maniac, keeping you all informed on my Oh so intersting BYU-I Life. But believe it or not ( hopefully you believe it), I have be SWAMPED with all sorts of stuff to do. Things like homework, work, ROOMIES, more homework, more work, and boys!! ( don't get any ideas, I'm talking about dating them!) Anyways, life has been one big blurr so, bare with me while I try to inturrperet the sometimes crazy dream that is my life!
Well last week was incredibly OUT OF CONTROL! Me and my absoulty fabulous roomies started out our week as normal, with class...Blhaa, don't get me wrong, I LOVE school, but I was not looking forward to that particular week. For one I had 3, yes count'em 3, exams. 2 that were on the same days, and one on Friday....by the way what kind of sick person gives an exam on Friday, that also happens to lead into the weekedn!! UHH. UH I ask you this, but to credit my Professor, he was kind enough to also leave it open on Monday too. So I change my mind...Thanks Bro. Cameron!!! Anywhoozer, so that was the I had to look forward to, plus my life was going a little hairwire ( that my friends, is another story for another day...or never works too!;) ) But life got a little nicer when a) we met our FHE group had a fabulous FHE lesson and get to know you game. All of my FHE family members are pretty great, except for one that shall remain namless and will not be spoken of! Then life got even better after that...wait for it, wait for it....when me and my possy went to play softball with some very adorable RM's and 2 equally adorable premies! Which we so loveingly referr to as "Our Boys"!! Oh and p.s. they are all fluent in either spanish or porteugease!!!! That my firends is very SEXY!!

So needless to say, that was great and I even got a few hits in....not good hits, but hits! The week ran some what smoothly for the next couple of days, then came Thursday.....CHEM EXAM. In one word...YIKES! and we are just going to leave it at that!
So that was exciting, but after that Friday came...whoohoo! And Firday ment yet another exam, but it also ment hangign out with the Boys from 312, who, if you don't mind me saying, are AAAMAZZING! anyway, we enjoyed their always fun company and jokes! But once again fun for me was cut short because of Work...go 3:30 am!! But on the flip side my adoable roomie Katie was asked on a date by one of our 312 boys!!! So early morning came and went, and then came the real fun..... working on the ward news letter. I was called to be the BYU-Idaho 5th Ward newsletter Corrordinator!! So that was fun, and it turned out Awesome!!! ( If I do say so myself, but I'm biased!)

Laundry Room Madness!

Ok well a few days me and hooligan roomates did something a little goofy ( Oh jeeze like you've never heard that before!) Anyways...we could say that this whole ordeal started with Katie and her need to do a load of Laundry. This would be her first load of laundry done in college, so it was decided that this event needed to be documented....needless to say that this was going to be a memory that would stick with us forever! Look what happened...
Katie thought that flipping her hair like a model would only add to sheer excitment that laundry day brought to our lives! That was until we actually got into the laundry room...
but in the end it all worked out nic
ely because after we dances around like idiots ( and when i saw we, what I really mean is Erica...gosh I lover her!) annd sang till our vocal cords were sore. We finally settled down enough to take a normal group photo! And HOLY CRAP, are we just so cute!

Run Forest..Run!


Ok so here's the skinny...I know that this phrase in NO way applies here...but I've always just wanted to say it! So tonight I did something that I NEVER do... thats right follks I went running!!!:) I know what you must be thinking... " Bre must have been really bord" oh and " Why is she blogging about this?!" Well i'm telling you this because not only is it unbelievable that I exercised, but also because it was the first of many runs that I took with my roomies! It was so fun, even though I tought I was either going to pass out or die!!!

But being with my roommates and doing something together, just felt so good! I love my new buddies and I feel like this has to be one of the reasons the Lord wanted me up here... not only to become closer with the Jeff Chapman clan or to reconnect with Heidi!! Or even to find my eternal companion ( if that even ever happens), but He wanted me to come up here to meet these amazing girls. Girls, who on a daily baises are choosing the right and doing what they are supposed to. And just because they have to or because it's the right thing to do....but because they want to do as our Heavenly Father asks.




Sure we are al a bunch of goobers and we make dorks of ourselves on a DAILY baises, but just being around these wonderful ladies has strengthened my testimony ten fold!! I love the Lord and I'm glad he prompted me to come to this Temple of Learning and I am greatful that He brought me these friends to pick me up and dust me off when I fall!


( And believe you me, I fall on my face ALL the time!:)) I love this place and the things I have had the opportunity to learn adn the growing that I have done! This was ment to be:) and I am full of graditude!

She is a hardcore Basketball player adn she hasn't failed yet to crack me up! Oh, oh and get this, we found out that we were actually in the same stake in AZ. Thats right the Chandler Heights Queen Creek, AZ Stake are our old stomping grounds! I just knew when we first met that I had seen her somewhere before, and guess what? I had... on the treck, and youth conference, etc! So that was way cool to find out! Alright...to keep thigns going let me tell you about one of my other roommates, Stacia Marshall! She is actually in the picture with Katie ( she's the brunett is case some of you reading this are a triffle slow!:) jkjk. Anyways, there aren't enought nice words in the dictionary to descirbe this cutie piie!! She's from Portland, OR and she is a soccor player! Yeah for sports:) She ( like little miss Katie) also has the crazy ability to crack me up, she is always in a great mood and Obviously it is very contagiouse! So needless to say that I totally love her!
Ok last but certainly not least is Erica Peacock...and her name by its self pretty much says it all!! She is a loud, fun loving, goffball acting, guitar playing, gegorouise girl! She is the one on the far left! She is an amazing singer and guitar player! This by the way, this is our first meal together!!

Elder Chapman Comes Home!!!



I just thought that I would take a moment to give all who weren't able to see Elder Chapman come home... a little look! We went to the Idaho Falls airport and he graced us with his presence at about 10:15 pm!!! It was wonderful to see him again...he hasn't changed a bit, Jacob is still the same adorably goofy "Jacob" as when he left!






Being able to be apart of the wonderful expericne and share this incredibly emotional moment in the Chapman family was honoring. I have never had the priviledge of waiting at the airport for a missionary to return home. But let me just say that it was an amazingly spirital experience, one that I will charish for the remainder of my days! Watching Jacob step out the security check point and into the open room where we all stood and waited in anticipation was awesome adn brought tears to my eyes aswell as the rest of the family's.
We were all waiting to see who the first person was that young Elder Chapman would hug first! I ( like most of the family) said it was going to be his sweet mother....but grandpa chapman begged to differ. "I think he will give his old grandpa the first hug", Grandpa said this to us we walked into the airport! And sure enough, when Jacob walked out to greet us is was Terry Chapman that recieved the very first hug from our return missionary!!! But not to worry, aunt Kirsti got her hug....she was last, which makes me think that saved the best and most special hug for last:)!!!
