Oh, Tuesday!

Monday wasn’t really exciting. We didn’t do a lot. We just relaxed. Josh worked. I went to school, built a desk, did homework for three hours, and then went back to school for my night{ish} class. We watched The Voice {love that show}, and went to sleep. Nothing super exciting, really.

Today, Josh and I went on a date! We went to Qdoba for lunch {Josh got a shredded beef burrito, and I got a grilled chicken burrito}, and ran some errands. It was a pretty great date. Really low key. So fun. It’s nice to just get away and spend some quality time together.
I am now all registered for spring quarter classes! YAY! I am so excited.

The past three days have been pretty great because I have been able to Skype every day with Chelsey {best sister-in-law ever}. It’s been so nice to see her face, and to plan all the fun things that we are going to do when Josh and I move to Provo this summer.

I have been battling a cold all weekend … my voice went away on Saturday, and was barely audible on Sunday. I teach the CTR 6 class with my husband at Church, and it was SO hard to teach the lesson with my voice gone. Haha! Let me tell ya, Josh and I were quite the pair that day. He had all of his braces on {because he broke his finger, sprained his wrist, and did something weird to his elbow}, and I had no voice. It was amazing.

Anyways, I am watching my new “guilty pleasure” show. I can’t say what it is, for fear that my husbands family would find out, and then the teasing would never end.

Have a great night!

Hey.

my family is watching the Academy Awards right now. So this is going to be so quick.

This weekend was crazy eventful. I was able to babysit all day on Saturday for my favorite family. Josh fixed the brakes on the car {possibly broke his right hand, and his left index finger in the process… but… ya know, he is a great brake fixer}.
I said goodbye to my mom on Friday. She is in Idaho now, and I really miss her. That’s a whole other blog post, though. I spent some good quality time with my dad on Friday, too. I love him so much. It snowed a little today. That was pretty great, because I LOVE the snow. So much. I ALSO GOT TO SKYPE WITH CHELSEY TODAY! I miss her a lot. She is truly one of the best people that I know. And one of my best friends {and it’s great that she’s my sister-in-law, it means we can hang out for eternity!}

Today I am feeling so grateful for everything that I have. I love my life, and I love my husband. I love my family, even though my family is totally crazy and lopsided.

Today, I am also in love with this song:

{sorry, I don’t know how to add music to my blog… so I can only post videos haha}

Have a great rest of your Sunday!

HAPPY FRIDAY!

I won’t lie and say that this week was the bomb.com.
Because really it wasn’t.
It was just one of those really blah weeks… that started with my paper not being finished {totally my fault} to my books being soaked by my water bottle opening up and unleashing it’s water powers all over my backpack {not my fault}. I am also sick, and super tired this week, there is a nasty cold/flu going around and I think I’ve caught it.

BUT you know what Friday is, don’t you?!
It’s not the day that I think about all the nasty bad things that have happened to me this week, I get to look back on all the snuggly things that have happened to me. So, here they are!

10 things that made me smile this week

1. Spending quality time with my Dad
2. Getting an A- on my most recent English paper!
3. Receiving a letter stating that I was selected to be on the Dean’s List for Fall Quarter of 2011!!!
4. Josh stating a new rule for bed time “we MUST kiss each other and say ‘I love you’ EVERY NIGHT!”
5. Watching my friends baby for a little bit and seeing her so smiley and happy
6. Lolo {the 6 year old I babysit} telling me that Heavenly Father thinks it’s time for me to have a baby
7. Cole {the 3 year old I babysit} saying: “babysitter… can I brush your hair?”
8. Receiving an invitation to my dear friends wedding! So excited.
9. Watching Naruto with my love. Soo good to me.
10. Getting a new desk to study at. Now I don’t have to study in my bed! Woohoo!

Have a GREAT weekend, everybody! It’s going to be so fantastical. I can feel it.

I am so proud

I figured out how to re-do the look of my blog. It was so fun. It only took me 2 hours to do it, too! Now I need to finish my English paper. Ha!

Have a great night!

SUNSHINE!!!!

After about one full week of non-stop rain, the sun is FINALLY out.
So today it looks like this:

Instead of this:

It’s really cold, but that’s okay. It is also really, really windy outside, but that’s okay. I am really enjoying the sunshine.

I should be working on my English paper. Why would I want to do that, though? Actually, I have been for the past two hours, but now I am distracted. I think I need to take a short break until … later. I only have a few more tweaks! It’s just really hard to focus on one thing for so long. Sometimes I think I have ADD. I didn’t used to have attention problems haha

It’s also been a T Swift day. Some days I just really, really love her. Ha! :D

Happy Wednesday!

{Plus, I am searching for places to live in Provo. I am so excited to move.}

Heck yes!

best.day.ever.

 

{p.s. Congratulations, Kennedy! She is having a baby boy! Her first one ever. 4th time is a charm, right?! I AM SO EXCITED FOR YOU!}

Goin’ To The Temple!

Josh and I should really go more often, but… we always come up with some excuse not to go:
Our car doesn’t work very well
It’s too far away (it’s really not, though)
We don’t have enough time
Our car is too dirty
Our apartment is too dirty
Ya know… stuff like that. You wouldn’t think that our car or apartment being too dirty would stop us from going there, but, it really does because I obsess over stuff being too dirty, and then I can’t enjoy the blessing of the Temple.

BUT Friday was a special occasion. My nineteen-year-old brother(in-law) was able to attend the temple for the first time. It was so beautiful being there, and being able go through the temple with him. I am glad that I have a brother who has a desire to enter the Temple and keep the covenants that he made with our Father in Heaven. What a wonderful day indeed!
Here are some pictures. :o) {I didn’t get any pictures with everybody after the trip because it was raining cats, dogs, and cows}.

It was nice to be there, I love the Temple grounds. They are so peaceful and beautiful.

I hope that everybody’s Sunday has been magical! Sorry that I didn’t post what made me happy this week. I worked all day on Saturday, and on Friday Josh and I were exhausted when we got home.

Oh yeah, if you want to know WHY we have Temples you can watch this video :o)
