Meteor Shower

So there is supposed to be this wicked awesome meteor shower tonight and the plan is to go to sleep immediately wake up at 3 am make some hot chocolate and head up the canyon fully prepared to make a thousand wishes. I wish I had someone to go with me, I think special moments like this are meant to be shared with those you love friends, family or someone special.

Footloose

So I watched "Footloose" the other day with my roommate and I decided to write a list of pro's from watching it; there are no cons to this list cause lets face it Footloose is amazing and shows Kevin Bacon at his finest. So here we go.

1. The only time a guy looks cool driving a vw bug.
2. his wicked awesome hair.
3. inspiration to do sweet dance moves.
4. the urge to say "jump back" in response to almost everything.
5. The dance scene at the end.
6. After I watch it I listen to nothing but 80's music for a week .
7. SJP was slightly cool and not slutty.

The reason I wanted to watch it was because my very good friend Paige sent me this book and Kevin Bacon is kind of like a main theme in it (sounds weird, but its a good one) and the reason I was able to watch it is cause I inherited it and about 60 other movies from my BFF Krissa.

Its the most wonderful time of the year!



So this Christmas is going to be a little bittersweet for me, it will be my first Christmas away from my family. I know it will be tough, but it had to happen sooner or later. So since I cant see them for Christmas some of them are coming to see me for Thanksgiving! This year is going to be a pretty frugal year as far as presents go, but thanks to Martha Stewart and my own creative genius I have some pretty awesome homemade gifts that I cant wait to get started on! I have about a million ideas for the women in my life but completely stumped for the men.... so I am totally open to suggestions!!!!! I will be taking pictures of my craftiness but not posting till after the holidays for obvious reasons! lol.

love this.....

so I wont mention names and I will pray that he never reads this. But I absolutely love the feeling of a new crush. Anyone who knows me knows that I crush on boys easily and frequently. There is just something magical about it though. The first time you see them and butterflies dance in your stomach, your ears burn red hot when they talk to you, the way you want so badly to seem cool, collected and whitty but all that really happens is an endless stream of word vomit, how excited you get at the thought of running into them. Oh I how I love these feelings. My Mom has always told me that I will forever be 16. I sure hope that she is right. Cause I gotta tell ya this isn't so bad.

Cross your fingers he notices me...........

By Myself....

Lately I have been needing a bit of me time. I know what your thinking Im single I have no children so all my time is me time right? Well sometimes I just get so wrapped up in my day to day things work, friends, church etc. I never stop to smell the roses. You know what I mean? So this morning I woke up early when on about a two hour walk down the Provo River trail which is absolutely gorgeous this time of year, then I came home threw my hair in pigtails and brushed my teeth, grabbed a yummy pumpkin bagel with honey almond cream cheese and Hot Chocolate from Einstein Bros. then headed up the canyon for some one on one time with myself.
 
 While I was exploring I took about 100 pictures (not kidding) and I just looked and observed talked with the Big Guy, read my Scriptures and just enjoyed being alone which is entirely unusual for me, normally I crave social interaction.
