JAZZIES

someday i want to be in love like the old jazzie couple in ephraim.

THE GYM IS THAT WAY

i would just like everyone to know that i hate and i mean HATE working out in a public gym.

however i pulled my lazy chunky butt outta my comfort zone today and i went.

i felt so much better.

i found myself smiling the whole way home and then this clip popped into my cranium.

but i will admit when i first got on the machines i made myself look like a complete loser 99.9% of the time. i mean what kinda nerd doesnt know how to work the freakin bikes??

and thats when the really good clip popped up inside my brain stage.

i searched to find it everywhere(wasted way too much of my life) and i couldnt ever find it.

but if you are a gilmore girl true fan, you will recall the episode "valentines at the vinyard" where rory and lorelai go to the gym and cant figure out the machine "do you push it or pull it? climb it or slide down it" yeah.. i really wish i could have found that clip. oh well.

ps im asking for new running shoes for christmas

YOU KNOW YOU'VE THOUGHT ABOUT IT

yeah i know you have all considered this at sometime when you think about paying for daycare. i sure have..

MAYHEM

is it just me or are these the best commercials known to man and i just realized today that they are for insurance hence the meyhem i guess. ps dean winters is really attractive.

MY FUTURE

i've become one of those wedding freaks now and i am not ashmed of that fact.

this ring

these boots

those flowers

that dress (with Sleeves)

here at this temple

that yummy cake (almost)

the man of my dreams please..

GOOSEBUMPS

have ya'll noticed that the temp has been dropping?
i dont know what its quite like outside of ephraim, but here it is gettin very chilly!
so this can only mean one thing in my excited mind.
i woke up and instantly i thought HOLY FETCH ITS TIME FOR SOME FLIPPIN TIGHTS!!

oh man let me tell the world that in the last couple years i have learned a few fun secrtes that i am sure most girls know but for me im a late bloomer in that world and i have just discovered some things.

1. tights are super comfortable! who woulda thunk it?! but they are and its not like i wear skirts all the time but on occasions im feelin a little.. fat.. yes i said the f word. and i just dont feel like goin through the pain of jeans. but hmm its chilly and i cant show off my chunky legs in shorts so, solution throw on the tights! also its a great choice when you are headed off to church also not just for the cold but you also dont remember that dress bein quite that short. there ya go.

2.alright this one may not be mother friendly but yes get a couple thongs girls! i personally only have one (i dont have money to go and get more) but seriously they will save your life. like the other day i was in my night yoga class and i was goin into a deep downward dog and i hear "ok everyone really send those hips to the sky" so i did and lucky for me i can look between my legs and see the full mirror and i can see my grand pantie lines!! ah so im sure none of you want them either. i promise they arent just for naughty or skanky girls. its only gonna help you out in the fashion world.

3. do not i repeat DO NOT go to the bowling alley at ten o' clock at night and order the cheese fries. i dont care how many menstral craving you have dont do it!! you will only wake up in the morning and feel a billion times worse. starch hang overs and massive bloating are never your friends. i promise.

now i know that most of you probably know that i am not the girliest girl out there but i hope you will still take a little bit of this advice. it has helped me advance just slightly in that world.

oh and ps if you are like me and you dont just get PMS you get all out RAGE (raging. angry. girl. everyday.) dont answer your phone, text or call, if you have just woken up from your nap on an empty stomach. you may offend someone.

COOKIES AND ICE

i am very excited to actually have something semi cool to blog about!

the other day me chris and tate went to manti to eat ice cream and do some ice blocking down the manti temple. and in this process i crashed on the ground and layed looking up at this amazingly gorgeous creation i decided that i will be coming back someday and getting married there. its my new most favorite temple ever i mean.. how could it not be?

and dont worry no one got hurt during this adventure. it didnt last long the coppers showed.

on saturday me and tatum were craving something delicious

so emediatly i leaped at the opportunity to cook something.

her sister bradie had just put a recipe on her blog for peanut butter oreos

oh yeah. thats right.

they were heaven on earth let me tell ya!

we did not have any kind of measuring cups.

or a blender.

it was funny.

and finally.

i trieed once again to finish my book for my history report

dont worry though i finished yesterday :]

KETCHUP

its been a while since ive just wrote about some of the Ephraim adventures so lets play catch-up.

well i made homeade alfrado for the boys in pinetree.

and got a owee from my boot.

also found delicious pizza!

i stopped on the side of the road to get a picture of the loan lama.

where juan proceeded to break down..

darn lama..

i have learned how to save a few dollars using printable coupons.

well that is about it.  oh i did do something else but i will proceed with that later i havent got my pictures yet. but some friends aka spence charlie and jackson came up for the weekend and spent some time with us. we were boring. it was still good to see them. i love making stupid memories.

 

yeah the world has become this superficial..hey its entertainment yeah?



MONKEY MONKEY UNDERPANTS

hello to all bloggers and followers i dont know if you really care to look at this next post because pretty much i just need to try and clear my head because things are becoming far too complicated up there in my big bag of weird. im trying to sift through all the shinanigans and come up with answers so hopefully this will bring some light into the kaleidoscope.

i wonder if i should drop my history class so i dont have to fail and waste the money.
should i stay single
how will i finish reading a 170 page book and write my paper in 6 days
i need a job
my car is dying slowly
i love shopping far too much
i want to cook new recipies all day everyday
i want more music and books
i wasted 4 dollars on a cosmo.. should i just get the subscription
wy do i second guess every second
why am i concerened about peoples opinions of this list
why dont i like chocolate
why cant i work out in public
i miss my treadmill
i want to make a new blanket
i wanna go on a ride
why do i sit in this dorm all day long

now i know that, that list was completely a downer lets try some good to see how they compare

i have amazing friends and family that i can always talk to
i am doing pretty good on my own right now
classes arent too hard
i have a roof over my head and a place to lay down my head
i have what some cant
i have a father in heaven that is always in my heart
and one that gives advice like "stuff like this is why god gave you knees"
i have a phone to call my mommy and cry to
a skype account to talk to friends like andrew is forever away
a friend like tate that can still make me laugh about really stupid things like farting

maybe things arent so bad..

i couldnt resist a good GG moment

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

I sit alone in my college dorm in this tiny town of Ephraim Utah, listening to music that most would find strange. my thoughts have been a thing of tourture the last little while.

i know i am a person that enjoys being alone but this is different.

my relations with the outside world have become electronic.

not sure how i feel about that.

i miss these people alot.

the rents-the sound of reba and the vacuum and knowing imediatly that mamma is cleaning and its a saturday morning. the deep conversations and tears i have shed during knowing how much they care. hearing "shabe" and knowing that it came straight from my father.

shad- haha my twin brother. he knows every secret about me as me him.

corey-he is the nurturer of this family. and i love him for always being willing to be the quiet comforter for me.

ryan- the one that has been absent for the last 2 years and i missed so much. we have so much in common we think alike and we share the same humor.

mary- the sister which god placed in my path. she is a trooper that i charish great childhood memories with. the only girl i ever shared a room with.

natalie-the first of the new girls in the family. she always has advice to share with us all. works a lot. but we love her all the same.

britt- the second to arrive. now there was a girl that surprised me. she always can make me laugh even when i dont want to.

the babies- what can i say.. who wouldnt miss those kids.

spencer.

this kid is my fishin buddy.

i miss spendin the summer chillin at his house doin whatever we would care to do.

i have great memories that will never leave my memory.

a real friend will let you name his truck after a disney character, and be just as enthusiastic as you.

andrew.

doesnt he just make you smile?

yeah me too.

we've had a rocky past but those rocks have made a rock solid present.

even when he's in kansas he never neglects me.

i miss the nights by the fire in goshen just laughin and havin a blast.

kacey.

well he's on the right. he doesnt get his picture taken or have a facebook. so thats all we got hehe

he comes across as a ass hole. but would do anything for anyone.

i love this kid and always will.

he came into my life at a time where i needed him most.

simply  amazing.

maranda taylor.

sorry but you cant handle her face, its just a fact.

flippin the coolest girl ever.

i become a totally different person around her.

im jealous of how stellar she is.

words cant even tell how weird of a friendship we cultivated over our lives.

jordan.

again, another non photer.

the one person who has seen me at my lowest low.

the one that has seen the most tears.

and the one that still always stays by me even when i tell him not.

jordan has been through great tradgedy but has learned to keep truckin along.

sydnee.

childhood friend that i could never be torn away from.

we didnt hang in high school but we have always stayed close to each other.

she holds my heart in the fashion world and someday i aspire to be as girlie and beautiful as her.

syds always got my back.

so pretty much thats how its going.

i go to class and do homwork and find useless stuff to do with my computer.

i miss pleasant grove.

i miss my friends.

but im learning.

this is the result of a late night.

heat exhaustion.

lack of sleep.

and sheer bordom.

enjoy world.

(ps make sure to watch all the way to the end.. its worth it i promise.)

LOVEING SMILE

i love moments like these.



NEEDED PRAYERS

Josh Brittain.

josh was in a very serious dirt bike accident this weekend and had to recieve spinal surgery. wether you know him or not any prayer is a helpful one.

the doctors still are not sure if he will be able to walk again but we wont give up hope.

josh is an amazing kid with an amazing spirit and he deserves your thoughts.

we love you josh and we know you can pull through. xoxox



FUN IN THE SUN
