Tomorrow is mine and Adams wedding. I can't believe it is finally here! It actually went by really fast. A lot of times, people say that wedding planning is stressful and often results in bridezilla. I, on the other hand have not experienced anything like that. It has been so smooth and easy that I feel like I haven't done enough. I feel like there should be more to do! BUT, we get married in approximately 17 hours. It's so close. I feel like I'm just watching it all happen and I'm not really here. Crazy weird weird weird. I am so excited to finally say I'm married to Adam though! It's been a journey that I would never change. The things we have been through the past year and a half have brought us to where we are and I feel so lucky and grateful to have earned such an amazing man! We took our bridal photos today. My sister Chandra Goodman took our pictures. I'm so excited to see how they turned out! (Updated later....Here some of them are!!)

Thinking about how tomorrow is going to go.. I just get butterflies thinking about it. I'm so excited to be sealed for time and all eternity to Adam! I'm pretty sure I'm going to be a crybaby some of the day and at the reception. I know I'm going to get emotional especially dancing with my dad! I'm getting all emotional thinking about it. Tonight, after I got home from taking the pictures and my grandparents were at my house.. just talking about the wedding got me all choked up. I'm pretty good at hiding it though. (I think?) so I don't think they noticed. It's such a exciting and crazy and happy kind of choked up.

I went through the temple on Saturday! It was amazing and I'm so excited to go back in tomorrow and be SEALED! We got our marriage license today. Life is going to change quite a bit, but I'm so excited to experience it with Adam! My best friend Karlie went through the temple today (she is going on her mission to Norway in April) so she could be there in the temple for the sealing. I'm so excited and happy that she is going to be able to be there for it. It doesn't happen very often where you can be there for each others weddings unless one has gone through for a mission already. Thanks to the changes made which were announced in General Conference, she is serving her mission pretty soon! Such a blessing! I'm so excited to start mine and Adams life together starting TOMORROW! Right before the end of the world! Haha IF that's true. Which, it probably isn't. And if it is.. at least we're sealed and we can be together forever! I love you Adam Brown! Can't wait to see you at the temple about to be sealed tomorrow! AHHHH I love my life right now. This isn't real.

Well, it's November 30th. Which means.. no shave november is over.. AND me and Adam get married in 12 days! What a comparison! Haha yes, I am one of the few girls who have participated in no shave November. Go ahead, judge. My fiancee still loves me, so I'm good! :) haha

I finally got my dress back from the alterations lady this past week or so. I also got my shoes for the wedding! All that I have for my whole "bride image" is figuring out how I'm styling my hair and what veil I will be using.  I'm so picky and indecisive and can't decide on anything. I admit.. it's a problem. My sister is doing our wedding cake now too, so I'm excited to see how things turn out! She's helped out a lot. She's been planning basically everything.. she made my belt for the wedding.. she is making the cake.. she is coordinating the bridal shower.. and did coordinate the bachelorette party.. she has made her own skirt for the wedding since Forever 21 decided to jew us out of one of our skirts.. she is making our video.. and probably so much more. I've got the best sister ever huh?

 This past weekend I had my bachelorette party! It was way fun and I was happy to see all the friends who were able to attend. We went to California Pizza Kitchen for dinner and then went to my friend, Karlie Harrison's house for the rest of the activities we had planned. It was a pretty entertaining night to say the least. We started out with presents which I ended up modeling for all of the girls. Haha I'm pretty sure no one has ever seen that much of my butt in my life. Following that, we did this question and answer portion thing where they videotaped Adam answering questions and then we would pause the video before his answer and I would try and guess what he would say. Then, for every answer I got wrong, I had to put a piece of gum in my mouth. I'd say we did pretty good! Then after that, my sister and friends planned some games for us to play. I'm not even sure what they were called, but they were pretty funny. Here are some pictures of the games we played which I think are pretty self explanatory..

After that, followed kiss the hunk... Justin Bieber..

 It prettymuch winded down after that. I just about lost my voice as well since I had a little bit of a cold. It was late by the time it ended, but I still got to see my fiancee! It's kind of weird to think that I'm getting married, but I am so happy that I am. I guess reality is sinking in! I'm so excited to spend forever with Adam! Can't wait to be able to go through the temple soon! Tomorrow is my bridal shower! Im old. haha oh life..

 I love my family and friends so much! I'm so blessed.

So, wedding plans are coming along pretty nice and quick! We've had a lot of help from my family. Mainly my sister Rachel! She's basically my secretary. That's what you get MAID OF HONOR! ;) Yeah, so we had the temple and the reception booked before we were officially engaged. We don't waste any time. Ha, well.. yeah.. we haven't been wasting time planning! We'll leave it at that. We got our bridesmaid outfits figured out and my dress is currently getting alterations. I'm broke now, but its fine. I wanna look good! We have our invitations made and are waiting to have a complete list to send them out to. All we have left to do is find the groomsmen ties, my shoes, and Adam has to have his tux figured out! Plus other little things here and there. We have less than 7 weeks until we are married! It's comin fast! We have most of the planning out of the way already and we still have over 1 month left! We're still deciding where we want to go for our honeymoon. At first we were thinking of going on a cruise since neither of us had been before. Now we're thinking of a nice hotel in vegas. So we'll see! Pretty exciting:)


What else is new? Well, me and Adam went to the scottsdale polo match at westworld this past weekend! That was something different! Neither of us had been to a polo match. It was on my bucket list and then I kept hearing about it on the radio and so we decided to go! We decided that we would both dress in polo shirts too! I didn't have one.. so I went the Epic thrift store by my house and found a cheap one. It was pretty ugly, not going to lie. But I dont know if I would ever wear a polo unless it were for something like that. So maybe if I go golfing or something, I'll use it again. Anyway, so Adam works in Scottsdale so I met him out there. While i was waiting for him to get off work, I got us some Jamba Juice and then we went to the match! It was interesting to see all the people in dresses and stuff. It was held at the same place that I go to the Arabian Horse Show every year too. There was a car show there as well as you can see. I felt like it was one of those things that I'm happy we went and experienced, but unless you're betting on winners, drinking, or rich.. I don't see the point of going to them all the time. BUT I got to check that off my bucket list, so that's happy! 
The past general conference announced the new ages of serving a mission age! 18 for guys, 19 for girls! So, there are a lot of girls that are seriously talking about going on a mission now! One of them being one of my best friends, Karlie! She's always wanted to serve a mission and so now she's workin on getting ready to go! It's pretty weird.. I'm getting married.. and she's going on a mission sometime after that. Guys we use to hang out with in high school are starting to get home from missions.. it'll be interesting to see how things pan out for people we know! Then, with the election.. I won't even go into it.. but yeah. That'll be interesting either way! Life's changing!

I CAN'T WAIT TO BE MARRIED! Oh, love.

 Looking back at my last post.. I ended with "who knows, maybe I'll be next!" Well, guess what? I'M ENGAGED! Ok, so I kinda knew it was coming. So here's the story.. It may seem like we have moved kind of fast cosidering we have only been dating again for...like 3 weeks, but it's not like that. We have technically been dating off and on since July 2011. That's pretty long for a mormon, right? Haha but anyways.. so here's how it happened..
So, we have been basically planning things for a couple weeks now, we just hadn't made it official with a ring yet. I had even showed him what ring i wanted and he had already arranged to have it resized, but i didnt know when he was going to have it back. So a couple weeks ago, Adam scratched his eye playing basketball and so he couldn't wear one of his contacts for a while until his eye healed.  That's the explanation for his eyepatch picture. Haha yes, he DROVE like that. Slightly scary experience. So he told me he had an awesome date idea for when his eye was healed. I would ask questions about it every now and then to try and figure out what it was and I couldn't ever really get it out of him, but he did say that he WASN'T going to propose on the date. So we go on this date on friday.. and he ends up taking me to the Scottsdale Gun Club which is a shooting range with some crazy guns you can rent and shoot. It was way fun!
Then afterwards, we were going to go to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. So we are on our way back into town and he made sure to clarify that the rest of the date was considered a whole separate date and that it was not to be associated with the rest of the date. Haha and then he told me that we were going on a short romantic walk before dinner. So I'm thinkin "ook.. thats kinda obvious, but we'll see!" Then I remembered noticing that he had been texting my sister, but I didn't see what they had been saying. And keep in mind that I knew that the proposal was coming up soon since the ring was going to be done any day. I did my research and found out how long it took for it to be done. (I'm too impatient to wait it out)

So every night I would analyze whether or not it were possible for him to propose that night. I knew it was coming, so you can't really blame me right? Anyways, so we ended up going to the Rapieran Reserve. We had been there before a couple of times. It's a place in gilbert that has a lake and some trails you can walk around. I remember going there with him one time a long time ago.. That's what this picture with him in the blue shirt is from. Almost a year earlier! WEIRD coincidence. Anyways.. That night we were walking around and went off on this trail that was lit up a little bit and went to a top of a hill where a gazebo was. It kind of overlooked the area and it was a nice romantic little area. I remember thinking that it was a good place for someone to propose, but I NEVER told Adam that I thought that.

 So here we are, almost a year later, going off on the same trail up the same spot, and we reach the top and it was all decorated with candles, roses, starburst, and sparkling cider. It was kind of funny too, because when we were walking up the trail, I saw someone sitting facing away from the trail, curled up in a ball. I knew it was my sister, but I didn't say anything cuz I didn't want to ruin the moment. So I kept walking and made it up to this beautiful area! It prettymuch just happened right away after that. He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I said yes. haha even though I knew what was going on, I couldn't ask for more! I've got the most amazing fiance I could ever ask for. And I'm so happy I'm finally engaged to this sexy man! I LOVE YOU ADAM BROWN! I cannot wait to spend forever with you! 12/12/12.

Basically, my life is a TV show sometimes. Haha (At least the past few months have been) It's been quite the emotional rollercoaster! I went from being in a serious relationship with Adam.. to ending it suddenly.. to starting to sorta date someone else.. to being back with Adam! It's not even that I like jumping from one relationship to another.. it just happens. I like dating people for a long period of time. That's how I've always been unless it doesn't feel right for whatever reason. I've never really dumped a boyfriend of mine. I'm usually the one who gets dumped. Sad stuff. Haha I don't like hurting people either so that's part of my problem for why I usually am the one getting dumped. But ANYWAY, enough of going off on that. Things are going really well. Couldn't really ask for more right now!



I finally sold my car. I sold it for $5000 to some people from craigslist. The sad part is that within a week of them having it, the a/c stopped blowing cold air. Ha! THAT is why I wanted to get rid of that POS! It was seriously possessed. I got a new car on saturday too! I was a little bit hesitant on getting it because it was the first car we even looked at since I sold my other car. But it was a really good deal. It's a 2003 Honda Civic with a little over 81,000 miles. I paid $6200 for it. which wasn't bad considering that the KBB value was over 7,000. It's definitely better on gas and more reliable so I'm happy so far!







Candice and Spencer got married this last week as well! She is the first out of my close friends from the Mountain View High School area to be married! It's crazy to think about! We're all starting to wind down! Our guy friends are starting to come home from missions too. Oh, life.

It's crazy how fast things change! Who knows, maybe I'll be next! ;) Only time will tell!

What's new with me? Hmm.. well, life's been good recently! The only really sucky thing right now that I can think of is the fact that a couple of my best friends are leaving me for JEWTAH! I'm pretty bummed out about that.. but I'll be ok! :) They leave in a week from today actually. Another thing that sucks right now is that my car is a PIECE OF SHIZ! I'm so frustrated about this car. I found out that whatever problem it has (which they never actually determined exactly) is going to be at least $2500 to fix. SCREW THAT! I was already planning on selling it.. why would I put that much money into it? I'm just gonna make someone else worry about it cuz I definitely don't want to deal with it anymore. I need to get rid of it ASAP too because if I don't, I'm gonna have to get new tires pretty quick. What's really frustrating about it is that we paid more than what kbb said the car was worth when we got it.

On a happier note.. the last weeked was a BLAST! I feel like I just held in a ton of energy and it ALL came out this weekend. Haha it was really fun. There was the back to school institute dance on Friday and then on Saturday was the back to school hanger party! Sunday was more chill, but still fun! Met some pretty cool people this weekend too so that's definitely a plus! :)

I've realized recently that I don't take near as much pictures as I use to. I'm pretty sad about that, so I'm going to try and change that up and post more on my blog posts! Tonight is one of my best friends bachelorette party! I'm pretty excited about that. Which reminds me.. I feel like I only go to Burlington Coat Factory for lingerie. Haha the cashiers probably think I'm a sex addict. That's definately not even possible haha. I have just been buying a lot of lingerie in the past year because everyone's GETTING MARRIED! Frickin A! Story of my life. It's funny how before you graduate high school, you picture how your life will be after graduation.. and it turns out SO different. If I were to look back to like 6th or 7th grade, I remember looking at people that had been graduated for a year or so and thinking.. why aren't those people married? (I know.. typical for a mormon to think..) Now, here I am.. almost half way to 21.. and I'm not even close. Haha I mean, I don't think the same as I use to obviously, but it's just interesting how things change like that. 

Three things that I'm excited about in the future:

1. Meeting new people
1. Why wouldn't you be excited? Ha
2. Winter weather
1. Why?
• Cuddling season ;)
• Winter Clothes
• Apple Cider
• Schnepf Farms
• Temple Lights
• Holidays
• It won't be death to go ride my horse
• Outdoor activities are possible without a pool
3. Life In General
1. Why?
• Things Change SO Dang Fast!
• New Car hopefully! 

I think that should be all for now. Until next time.

   How's life? Well.. Not horrible. I'm just starting to go back out and hang out with people again. This last weekend, I'm not going to lie.. this weekend I felt the most socially awkward I've felt in a long time. I was not a fan of it ONE BIT. Friday was fun. I was super hyper. Why? I had a really strong energy drink. Saturday.. not so much. I had another energy drink, but it definately didn't work. We went to hang out at a couple of different places, but I definately wasn't feeling it. As much as I wanted to and I was excited to go out and all, something made me not very talkative. It may be because of seeing some people that I wasn't ready see.. or I was just having an off day. But hey, can you blame me? This week has been a lot easier than last week. That's for sure. I just try and stay as busy as I can and do my best to move on with my life. Things change! That's for sure. I like having the assurance that everything is going to work out a certain way. When I feel like something is set in stone.. and it doesn't work out.. let me tell you how much more of a insecure trainwreck I become! Ugh.. things make me sick. But what can you do? Times like these remind me of this song..





 Not trying to be super emo or depressing.. but you just never know what life is going to throw at you! You gotta be ready to do whatever you can to stay positive. There is so much out there.. and so many people out there that can make you happy.. if you let them. It can be hard to let go of things that happen and move on, but it's the only choice you have unless you want to spend the rest of your life in a dark and depressing pit of sadness. The other day when I was reading my scriptures.. I had been having a hard time and I always read my scriptures before I go to bed. I read a chapter every night. I was reading in Proverbs I believe. I just happened to came across this scripture:

   It just kind of opened my eyes to the fact that is ok to be sad sometimes. Life is going to be tough. Sometimes you just have to cry it out and let all the stress and emotions out or else you'll explode. I'm pretty famous for holding it in as long as possible, which usually doesn't end well.  But anyways, yeah.. it just helped me to realise that there is a time for everything. And it's ok to be sad when you need to be sad. Things will happen with time. You just have to be patient or else you'll drive yourself crazy and waste that time waiting being unhappy when you could have been happy. Sometimes you gotta fake it out.. pretend to be happy.. and then things will fall in your path and make you happy. Anyways.. enough of my preaching. I'm just taking every day as it comes and trying to stay positive! It gets easier every day!

 I recently finished up season 2 of Pretty Little Liars on netflix. Oh my lanta.. talk about intense! I love it. I wish netflix would come out with more Vampire Diaries episodes. I miss watching that show! Now, I have nothing to get addicted to on there. Any ideas?
   I've been trying to get my car ready to sell recently. And wow.. it has been a process. I have been taking it to Sun Devil Auto the past few days so they can look at it. They were working on getting the error lights in the dash to go off. These are just SOME of the lights that come on..

I ended up having to get a speed sensor thing replaced on one of my tires. So far, the mechanic bill is at $300..something. Hopefully it wont go up too much more. They are taking it into the dealership today to have them reset the computer. Hopefully that will help it calm down. Then I can sell it and get something better! I don't know what else is new.. so until next time..

Monday, August 13, 2012

The past couple of days have been.. probably the hardest days I can remember. I don't even know what to write on here for people to see. I think I'm probably at the lowest point right now. I just gotta be strong and have faith that things will be better soon.. I feel like I'm in a really bad dream.. and I just can't seem to wake up. But I remember having a massive headache yesterday, so I know that's not the case haha. Good ol' sunday headaches! :( You really do have to prepare yourself for the worst thing to happen. Cuz when that moment comes and you're not ready, it hurts that much more. I wish I could just go off and tell exactly how I feel in detail, but I don't think I should since this is an open blog. Now, I have to get back into the social pool and try and be happy as much as I can. I didn't think I would have to get back out there.. ever. But, here I am. On the bright side, I really got a bigger picture yesterday on how much people care for me and are here for me. So that's comforting. I will admit, I did miss hanging out with my girls and going crazy with them. That's something I haven't gotten enough of for a long time. I'm trying really hard to be positive right now. It's hard, but it's a bit easier today than it was yesterday. I just gotta stay busy.
Anyways, I got my wisdom teeth out last week. It really wasn't that bad. I was pretty scared about it since my last experience was so bad. But this time, I had the owner of the dentists office do it and he gave me laughing gas. So, that was nice. I don't remember feeling like I wanted to laugh at all though. I'm not sure why they call it that. I just felt high. I felt like I was going to pass out at one point, but it was great. Haha now I understand why people get high. Although, I would never be that stupid to do it. I'm almost all the way healed now too. I've gotten through the hard parts. I've just gotta hang in there, and I am. So, if anyone wants to hang out with me.. I have even more free time now. I'm trying really hard to be positive. Haha I prettymuch just sound desperate, but I don't care I guess. I'm still trying to sell my car too, so if anyone wants to buy it, that would be great!

Me and Adam have officially been dating for almost 5 months now! That's crazy to think about. If you add up the other couple of times we dated, then we have been dating for like 8 months at least. (not including the time we spent apart) I feel so lucky to have him in my life! It's crazy how things pan out. Recently, Adam has started his new job at Vanguard. And so he has been pretty busy getting settled in and taking a few tests as well. BUT, after friday, we'll get a break from testing for a while AND different working hours! So that'll be nice change.
Some things that have happened recently that have been crazy.. Well, one of my best friends Candice Rowley is engaged! I'm so happy and excited for them. Another one of my best friends Josie Gleave is married now! Yeah, married. I've been best friends with this girl since KINDERGARDEN! Oh my lanta.. my life. I can clearly remember the days in elementary school swinging on the swings with this girl.. annoying her with "the song that never ends." I was such a nice friend. Haha no, but really.. those were some good days and I'm gonna miss this girl like HECK since she's moving to AUSTRALIA! Yeah, craziness. I love her love story though. It's so perfect and I'm so happy for her and Jeremy. You can tell by seeing them together and seeing them interact that they are meant to be together. I love witnessing that. To summarize from what I know.. I'll do my best to tell their story. Josie was 14 years old when she met Jeremy. He was 17. (it's crazy to think she was that young, but Josie has always been very mature for her age so it all made sense) He came to visit Arizona to see someone in her ward at church that he knew.. and then saw Josie and knew he had to talk to her! So he did. He didn't officially take her on a date that time, but later he did. Not sure exactly when. They stayed in touch through Facebook and things like that. She wrote him while he served his mission in Italy. After he returned, they dated more seriously and were engaged. A year later, they tied the knot. It all makes sense that this relationship worked out for her though. Josie has always been a writer. And I think that would have to be the type of person to last in a relationship across the world. It's also ironic that she was the first of my group of elementary school friends to be engaged since she never had ANY interest in dating. I remember in late elementary school, me and Lexie were already boy crazy and Josie just kind of brushed off every guy that looked at her. Haha she always has had her head on straight in every espect of her life it seems like. I look up to her a lot. If you want to see a more detailed and accurate version of her story..  you can visit her blog at http://joscelyngleave.blogspot.com/ . You can tell by reading her blog that she is an author.

What else is new.. on a less happy note, my sister-in-law Chandra was diagnosed with breast cancer. It's been a pretty scary experience so far.. not knowing exactly what is going to happen and not knowing how bad things are. To know all the details of her case, you can visit her blog at http://www.pooksforever.blogspot.com/ . She has been so strong through it all and I admire her strengh and faith throughout everything. I know that God has a plan for her and everything that is happening. I just know she was given this trial because she can get through it. God won't give you anything you can't handle. I'm a strong believer in that. Her family and friends actually put together a fundraiser to raise money for medical bills and things like that. It was very successful. I think I can speak for everyone when I say that we did not expect the number of people that came.  I'm so happy everything is working out. My family along with hers are very blessed.

Other than that, I don't know that a whole lot of big changes have happened. I have so much to be thankful for. The past week has made me realise that moreso than normal. I don't know if it's just because I'm a girl and I can be emotional, or what. But, I'm glad I can get a reminder of how much I have to be thankful for. I'm so excited for my future and what is in store for me. I feel so at peace about... I think everything in my life. It's crazy. I haven't been this happy in a long time. Maybe ever? Some future things that are going to be coming up are.. I need to get my other two wisdom teeth out. Which I am scared to death about! I think I might pass out with nervousness when I go in for that procedure since the last experience was so great. Along with that, I want to sell my car and buy a new one as soon as I have everything all sorted out and settled down with my car. I need to get the computer reset in the car so all the lights in my dash will go off. After that, I'll be ready to sell and find a better car! We will see when that happens! I want to try and get a car and KEEP it for more than like 6 months. It seems like I can never do that. But I WILL. Until next time...

Tuesday, June 12, 2012

Oh how I love my life. Recently, I've been watching a lot of netflix. Some shows that I've been watching the past few months are Vampire Diaries, Gossip Girl, 90210, Lost, and Supernatural. Through watching these, (especially Gossip Girl and 90210) I've come to realize that I am so blessed! haha that may sound weird, but here's why. You can tell by the name of Gossip Girl (if you don't watch it already) that it is FULL of drama. It takes place in the upper east side of New York. So.. yes, rich snobs. BUT I am so happy my life is not that crazy. And then 90210 is also like that because it takes place in a Beverly Hills, California with a bunch of rich kids. I watched seasons 1-4 of Gossip Girl while I did telemarketing at work. So, after about 5+ hours of watching it every day, my mind started playing tricks on me. I started getting all worked up about life and stressed out. Then, when I tried to think of why.. I didn't know. Haha so unfortunately, I don't reccommend watching that much of that show at once.. that often. Haha it's not healthy. I never got too far into 90210 while doing calls for me to get that way about that show. But, I can imagine it is a similar experience. After coming to the realization that my life was not going to end and wasn't a mess.. (my life is actually basically the opposite. haha) I realized how much I have to be happy about. I have a great family.. friends.. and an amazing boyfriend. (I already knew this.. but it was kind of a slap in the face reminder kinda thing!)
My house is currently... very full. Haha it was even more full about a month or so ago when my aunt lived at my house too. But anyway, right now my sister and her family (4 people), my brother and his family (4 people), my parents and I all live in the same household. Not only that, but that means there are 4 kids under 6 years old. Haha there's always something going on. It's pretty nice though because my brother and his fam moved from Snowflake, AZ and so it's been nice to see them more often. They are actually working on moving out into a rental house that my parents got here pretty quick, but it's like 3 streets away from my house. So, that's nice. And then my sister and her family have lived at my house for a while now. Me and my sister are close, so it's always nice to my best friend around prettymuch all the time. It'll be a big shock when all of us are gone...for my parents.
My friends.. I don't see very often anymore since I've been dating Adam for about 4 months now. So, I've kinda gone MIA. But, hey.. it happens. I do get to see Summer like all the time since I work with her. haha so that's nice. And then Karlie just moved to Provo for a couple months.. so I wont see her for a while. Other than that, I don't see much of anyone else. But... I have Adam :) and I'm completely content.
The last couple of weeks have been pretty fun. Starting with the 1st of this month. My work decided to take the day off and make a lake day with the whole company. So me and Adam went to Canyon Lake with everyone from work. They rented jetskis and had a couple people bring boats and stuff. Did I take pictures? No. FAIL. But it was pretty fun. Minus the fact that Adam got a ticket... on a jetski. Yeah, it's possible.. so watch out. He got a navigation violation. Apparently you're suppose to drive on the right side of the lake.. or going counter-clockwise. So, they gave him a citation. It was stupid though because it was his first time on a jetski and he didn't even know. I didn't even know and I've ridden jetskis enough that I thought I knew enough.. guess not. But anyway, it's not a huge deal though. They just want him to get education.. by going to a $5 boating class. Haha it's prettymuch a waste of time, but what can ya do?

That following sunday was pretty fun as well. I got to go with Adam and his family to Laguna Beach, California to a beach house that his family rented. It was pretty nice. We got there on Sunday and just mainly hung out that day.. walked on the beach a little bit.. tore up my foot. It's fine. Haha no, but I really did tear my foot up. It wasn't too bad though, I just stabbed a hole in my big toe and then scratched up some other parts of it. It really wasn't a big deal. It sounds worse than it was. I got it the day we got there too, which kind of sucked, but yeah.. it was when we were walking on the beach and the tides were coming way up to the side of the house and we were trying to run up and get on rocks or whatever so we didn't get washed away in our clothes. I was just trying to escape the water and i jumped up the side of some steps that had some rocks around it and it tore my foot open. But anyway, yeah.. so that's sunday. Then monday we went to go see the ship Queen Mary in Long Beach. We got to go on it and look around and also got to go on a haunted tour. It was a fun experience. I definately wouldn't mind living there.. if i was rich. Haha but I'm not.. so it's just a dream. After we visited the ship, we went back to the house and then boogieboarded. That was pretty fun! We even saw dolphins pretty close to shore from our porch. Not while we were in the water, but there were surfers pretty close to them. It was pretty cool. I didn't get any pictures of it unfortunately. Then we just hung out the rest of the evening. The next day.. Adam was sick. It was pretty sad, but we just hung out and stayed in bed all day. Then, the next morning we got ready and drove home. That's basically california in a nutshell.. a rather large nutshell.
On saturday June 9, we went to Octane Raceway (use to be F1 Raceway) so that was pretty fun. I wish I would have gotten some pictures, but I didn't. It was pretty fun though. Those cars go pretty dang fast. They make you wear a helmet and all! So that was fun!

Then this sunday, June 10, we hung out with my family in celebration of my brother in law, Jason's birthday. It was a chill night. Played some pictionary.. nothing crazy. Since then, nothing really exciting has happened.
Life is crazy.. I never would have thought I'd be where I am 5 months ago. I love my life and everything in it! Honestly, I really can't think of anything bothering me right now. That's pretty dang good! I guess I shouldn't speak too soon.. but yeah. I love love. :)

And if you were wondering.. Yes, "love" is written with glass cleaner on a mirror.

I realized that I never blogged about Lehi Days and my birthday! I had a great birthday! Best one I've had in a while! Me and adam celebrated the weekend before since my birthday fell on a tuesday and Adam had school most of the day that day. We just went to lehi days during the day and then went out to dinner afterwards.. then later just went to a place in La Sendas so he could give me my present. He got me matching perfume to his cologne. :)

Other than that.. Not a whole lot is new with me haha but life is great! Me and adam have been

dating for about month and a half now. So far, so good. :) haha We actually got to go to Pinetop a couple weeks ago with some of my family. My grandparents and one of my aunt and uncles live up there so we got to stay with them. It a nice relaxing weekend. We just hung out there at the cabin and made a snowman.. went shooting.. and just explored the town basically haha it was good to get away.

I realized that I hadn't been out of town since July 2010 when I went up to Pinetop the last time for 4th of July. So I definately needed it. It's been even longer since I've been out of the state. I'm pretty sure that the last time I went out of the state was for EFY in summer

2009. Ha and that s only for EFY.. nothing else. Not really a legitimate vacation. Before that.. I'm not really sure how long it has been. Haha I wanna go to cali sometime soon.. so we'll see if that happens.

I don't think I blogged about when I got my wisdom teeth out, but to sum it up.. I ended up not being able to get all 4 of mine out at once because my body fought off the numbing stuff too quickly so they couldn't use any more on me without it being unsafe. And even then, I could feel a lot of the surgery. I was awake.. and let me tell you.. I was miserable. Afterwards.. I just went into the car where my sister was waiting for me and just cried. It was horrible. The medicine they gave me to use didn't even make me all weird. It wasn't fun at all like I was thinking it was going to be. There was nothing fun about it. And anyways.. later that night.. I didnt fall asleep until about 8am. I had to have a priesthood blessing to help me sleep. After that.. I was OUT. Haha it was amazing. It's such a blessing to have priesthood holders in my home. My dad and my brother Jason got to participate in it since my brother and his family are living with us right now. So.. here I am like 4+ months later and I still have 2 of my wisdom teeth. Now, one of them is crowning. So.. I'm gonna have to finish up that wonderful procedure now. My mom talked to the dentist that owns the office it was done at before and he actually use to be in my ward. He went on to say that the dentist that did it is new. So basically.. I was so privileged that I got to be his guinea pig! He also talked to my mom about it and they think he didn't give me a shot that he was suppose to. Isn't that wonderful? Ha so he told my mom that he would do it for me when we do the other two. But, at this point.. I just wanna be put to sleep. I'm gonna freak myself out so bad before the procedure that I'll be in bad shape anyways if I go back there. Whether or not it'll be different or not. This time.. I don't want to feel ANYTHING.. I just wanna be put to sleep.. and I just want it to be semi-fun. Haha at least at some point. It'll already be so fun being a lopsided chipmonk again. So.. that'll cost me quite a bit especially if I'll be put to sleep. :/ And.. on top of that.. The A/C in my car stopped working! Great timing right? Just in time for the heat. I guess I'm suppose to be broke right now because that'll be how I end up! Oh well.. money comes and goes I guess. My car is actually in the shop right now as I'm typing this. So I'm not sure what I'll be paying to fix it. There is more than just the A/C that has problems too. Shouldn't have bought this car! It's not even that good on gas either. I guess I should just keep my eyes open for a new car.. again. :( I guess you have to have some sort of trial in life, right?

This past month has been eventful! Haha I went from ending a relationship.. to getting into another pretty quick! It was the last thing I expected to happen, but I'm happy. I am now dating Adam! We have dated a couple times, but this time we made it official! I haven't officially had a boyfriend since my senior year of high school. Almost 2 years! WEIRD! I've

had little relationships between then and now, but nothing officially boyfriend and girlfriend. I guess I never made it that far haha. But ya, So this is round 3 of me and Adam. I wont go into detail, but it's legit this time! haha we dated in july 2011 for a while.. then didnt for a bit.. then did for like a month or so.. and then we didn't for about 4 months. Now, we are as of February 26th! haha we met through friends and at a party officially talked. So yep, I'm off the market! :)

I finally got the old deck from my other car installed in my new car! So I don't have to listen to music through my phone anymore! Yay! That's really all I have been up to lately. I'm excited to see what happens in the next couple months! We shall see! I don't know what else to update about.. so I guess that's it.
