Enjoy Life

Don't I have the most beautiful friends?? I agree!
My friend Jaisha got married a couple weeks ago. It was one of the most beautiful weddings I have been to..I loved it. They are the cutest couple! Me, Heidi, and Nikki where buddies all day for the ceremony and reception, the picture above is us enjoy the festivities. I love these girls and congrats Jaisha!

Check out my nephews mullet:
It rocks! Unfortunately they didn't keep it long but it was so cute. His hair had been getting long and would stick out in the back sometimes so we started calling him 'duck tails'. my mom couldn't resist leaving it on there when she cut it...

I guess I should mention how my blind date with the cowboy went since I never got back to you on that huh?? The most I can say is that it was ok =). He was nice but when all a boy can do is talk about themselves I get a little turned off... We got a long well enough considering we are complete opposites. There has been talk of a possible second date but I am not doing much to encourage it... dating SUCKS! You lucky married people...

I think that is going to be all for this post... I have a lot things going on that I will get posted but I have my big Super Summer Activity for my singles ward coming up so it may be a while before I get to it.. so until than: Enjoy Life!

24 hours


24 hours in day is not enough...especially in the summer time. When you spend 9 hours of it working and 8 hours sleeping, that leaves you 7 hours, which 1-2 hours is getting ready for the day! I can't wait till the day I do not have to work a full time job and I can spend my days doing projects, discovering new things, updating my blog, working out, and getting enough sleep so I don't fall asleep while I am driving... Oh that day will be glorious!

p.s. I have a blind date with a cowboy tomorrow night. Curious to how that will turn out? Ya, me too. I will let you know.

I am in need of an old Kitchen Cabinet..

Does anyone know of anyone who is building or remodeling their kitchen and has some old cabinets they are wanting to get rid of? I am in need of one for a project. I am looking for a size of about 20"x 30"...give or take a few inches. Please let me know if you know of anyone...I will take them off their hands for free or I am willing to pay. Either leave me a comment or text/call 801-391-5263.

Don't really know what to call this one...

Oh man! Life has been Carazy!! So pretty much this will be another long blog post...Feel free not to read it all. My goal is to make a blog Journal since I have been so horrible at writing in my normal one. So I am going to put lots of stuff up on my blog. Onto my life as a single 25 year old (that is so weird!)

First off, we got to mention Eclipse! I do have to say I very much so enjoyed this movie. It is so much better than the first two. I could actually stand to look at Edward some of the time and not cringe... Just some of the time =) The acting is a lot better in this one and the filming is really good. The only thing I didn't like about it was that it felt very rushed. The 3rd book is so full of stories of the Character's past and they only touched on them briefly. Those are my favorite parts of the book so that made me a little sad it didn't go into detail. I guess if they had done that the movie would've been mega long... but I am sure no Twilight fan would mine!
We were extremely lucky and actually got to see it the day before it came out. It was so nice...our movie started @ 5p so there was no waiting up all night and I got to brag to those who are obsessed enough to go to the midnight showing! We got the tickets through someone who knew my sister-in-law Kari's family. So after the movie me & my mom went with Kari and her sisters to dinner @ Union Grill (one of my favorite places.)


Next on to my Birthday. I am freakin 25 years old!! How weird is that? So my Birthday was on the 28th of June. I took the day off from work...I think they should give everyone 8 hours of birthday leave a year...what do you think? Me and my sister Maegan went and spent the day at . Oh what fun it was! This old age is creepin up on me though...I can't ride those rides like I use to. I tend to get a little sick quite often! It was fun though. Mondays are a great day to go...not to crowded.
I felt really spoiled on my Birthday this year. It was definitely a good one. That night my parents and sister took me to Lee's Mongolian. I love that place!! You should definitely try it if you haven't. I also got some rad presents, I am so spoiled! My parents gave me a gift certificate for a massage, I can not wait to get it! I have wanted one for years. My sister gave me the cutest new Yoga mat. I can't wait to use it. My friends Heather & Kate gave me 2 tickets to see Phoenix in concert in September!! What an awesome gift. I had no idea and it was a great suprise! The only thing is...I have to bring a date with that 2nd ticket. Hmm...the rate I am going with my dating life may produce a problem. Wish me luck on finding someone in the next few months =). I also got many gift cards and other little presents from friends and family. I definitely have the best friends and family ever!! My friends took me to dinner last night too for the special day. We went to Bistro 258 on 25th street. Mmm mmm good. You gotta try it out!

On June 26th we had an awesome Fiesta for my friend Juan who got home from his mission on the 24th. I do have to say we threw a great party! I kind of forgot to get a lot of pictures so the ones I do have aren't the best. We decorated Heather's back yard with all kinds of lights, we had a Pinata, Spanish music, and awesome awesome food. It's great to have Juan back...he is such an awesome kid. Below is some pictures of Heather's yard and some participants in the Fiesta. (it looked so much cooler in the dark) Check out the basketball hoop area...we made it into a dance floor:





June 24-26 my family had their awesome Annual Camping Trip. This year we went up to Brownie Lake up in the Uintas. It was a lot of fun this year. Probably the best one to date. Unfortunately Kari and baby Mia weren't there but everyone else was and we made a lot of good memories. Below is a picture of the lake...it was pretty up there:

We (well I should say Pake) did a lot of fishing. We were always teasing him saying he caught all the fish in the lake... cause he did catch a lot! This one below was probably the biggest one he got. I didn't fish but I did go for a ride on the new fishing boat. I got to see a cute little beaver swimming in the water. Besides chipmunks and fish, that was about the extent to the wildlife I saw.

We brought up the four wheeler which is always a lot of fun... Isn't this a cool motion shot?! I love how clear their legs are and the background is so blurry. I wish Pake wasn't out of the picture though!

Maegan with the cutest boys ever making their funny faces.

Some pictures on the lake:

Pake being funny: (and he is)

Good times with the family. I love love love being an Aunt. I don't think their is anything better. People say motherhood is but not so sure. I am pretty content just being an Aunt =). Anyways, it was a good camping trip full of memories of silly things the boys said, seeing all the times Emett cried, and almost beheading myself.. Wonderful!!

Ok this next post is a Silly one! A couple weeks ago me and my friend Kate had a Burning Ceremony. It may be a silly post but it was a serious thing.... =) seriously. Ok, so you are wondering what this Burning Ceremony is right? Well it is a time where we build a fire and burn all the stuff girls keep when they are dating someone. (We have since broken-up with that someone ofcourse). It is a cleansing process and it worked pretty good. My stuff I burned was actually quite old and I have been over it(him I should say) for a while (not as long as I wish though...long long process) but it is a really good cleansing process and a good thing to do for yourself. Unfortantely Kate forgot her box of stuff so another one will be happening soon.
Below is Kate working on getting the fire going. For to girls who never makes fires we made one bad A fire!

This would be me burning:

My sad face...I am not going to lie it was hard to burn those things... so many memories:

My cleansed face!:

This is kind of an awkward picture to post but I love Kate's shirt. A Love shirt at a Burning Ceremony?? Come on girl =)


That is it for now... on to the next week of Adventures!!
