And now the moment you've all been waiting for!!

Yup, it finally came and it came tonight! March 30th 2013 around nine fifteen. I'M ENGAGED!!!! Yup to THE best guy ever for eternity! I don't have much time tonight, but I will hop on here soon and post the story and some pictures. Stay tuned!!

Days fly by!

So, I failed at the February challenge and there are too many days left over to go back and do them all, but I am proud that I got through at least half! That is definitely a plus! I guess life gets pretty busy. I am teaching preschool and trying to get lesson plans(all 10 pages of them) in on time along with research papers, child reports, resource files, presentations, and much much more! I am surprised I am still alive and sane at that. In my free time which is rare I find a few fun things to do! Such as these:

Nick And I decided that we needed a break from Rexburg. Well, where can you go that isn't too far from Rexburg, but also doesn't break the bank? Idaho Falls...Yup that's the best we've got. Well, as long as you are with the right person you can have a blast! We went around the mall and found these stylin beauties! We also went to Buffalo Wild Wings (Yum!!) and then last, but not least we went and saw the new oz movie.  It was a good break from homework and we had a lot of fun! 

We also went to a dance for one of our date nights. Hannah (Nick's Sister) was playing in the band and it was a dinner and dance.  It was a lot of fun! and the food was really good... always a plus! 

Then when we came to Boise to visit my family we took some senior pictures for Skye, but we also took some fun ones to keep us entertained! 

Anyways, even in the business of life find times where you can go enjoy time with those you love.  It is going to be those times you look back on and are glad you had.  School has about 3 and half weeks left and then it is back home to Boise for the summer! I am excited to spend more time with my family and see what life has in store! So remember Come What May and Love It! Everyone have a great week! 

Getting Tired Yet?!

Well here we are onto a few more days of February! Seems like it is going by pretty fast. Well, we are onto

Day 10:

This is Natalie's stuffed goat, but her pet none the less. She loves him and he is always there for her. Just how a pet should be! 

Day 11: 

This is the quote that I picked. I like it a lot. Sometimes I need to be a better listener to it though. I can't do everything and not everything will go the way that I want it to, but in the end it will go the way it is supposed to go.

Day 12:

Well, this isn't a picture of an actual smile, but I hope that it will make you smile!  This is a picture that my brothers set me after I left Boise one time and they were doing facials so they could look their best when they saw me next. haha what weirdos! 

Day 13: 

So sadly I do not have a picture of a stranger, but I see strangers doing good deeds around here all the time. Whether it is holding open a girls door or helping someone pick up stuff after they have dropped it. Look around to see all the good things strangers are doing around you! 

Have a fantastic day!! 

Going on with the Challenge

So, yup as guessed and assumed by me and probably many I fail at doing a daily blog update, but life just gets busy ya know. So, I just decided to update here and there with a few days of the challenge. So, today will be two days of the challenge.

Day 8: 

This was the best picture I could find of an embrace, but I really like this picture. 

Day 9: 

Ok let's get the sappiness going :) 

Ok, Nick is the someone that I love. Shocker right?! Haha well it's hard to really pinpoint what love is and what it feels like, I think about that all the time, but really what it comes down to for me is all who they are, all that they are not, all that they want to be, and that they are trying their best to be the best person for you. It goes both ways you need to be the best person for them too. Together this relationship should help you build and grow together. Some reasons, not all, that I love Nick is he teaches me new things. For example he was teaching me to play guitar and he was super patient and helpful in doing it. I also have so much fun with him. We always have a blast no matter what we are doing. Finally, for the last picture the quote says it all. He knows me better than so many people. Amazing. Ok sappiness over. :)

Ok, wanna see a couple of funny things? I think you do so here ya go! 

This is Natalie late at night up past her bedtime... haha she gets a little crazy when she stays up too late, but that's just how we like her! 

I saw this and laughed so hard and thought it completely applied to BYU-I. That is seriously the big topic here that all the girls talk about! I want to get married, I'm not married yet, when will I find the right person. Yup you hear this and so much more! Well, everyone enjoy your day! 

February's Challenge

All over Instagram and Facebook there has been these monthly challenges well monthly photo challenges and I never did them because if we are being honest I didn't see the point, but then I thought that I am running out of things to write about on my blog so I decided that I'm going to give it a try. They have something for everyday and I will try my best to keep up with it, but I can't guarantee that I will be doing one everyday. This first post will be a little longer than most because I am catching up for the days that I've missed.  So here is the picture for February's Challenge.

Ok so we are now onto Day 1: 

So this is my lock screen for my phone right now.  It has been this picture for a little over a month now which is like setting a new record for me because I am constantly changing the thing! It keeps me happy! 

Day 2: 

Haha now I don't know how he would feel about me putting this picture on my blog, but this is my best friend and this is how I know him. He is a goof ball, but he is my everything! He knows everything about me and loves me for all that I am. He makes me laugh and knows just how to make my day. 

Day 3:

This is my mom and she is most definitely my role model and I know she is for more people than just me. She is the strongest person that I know and she is always there for me. I hope to be as strong as her someday and keep thinking of others even when things start to get tough. Those two together make me realize that even though life is rough we always have someone to lean on and someone will always be there to love us. They are an excellent example of a relationship to me. 

Day 4: 

Well, next is OOTD which I'm thinking means outfit of the day... Seems like a good guess! Well, as it turns out I changed from what I was wearing earlier because I am headed to the gym with miss Natalie in a few minutes, but I am just wearing jeans a t shirt and some tennis-shoes. 

Day 5: 

Ok well it asked for a self portrait...haha not much to say about this one except for here is me! 

Day 6: 

Ok, so as of right now I do not have a favorite song, but I have most definitely been in a country mood! 

Day 7: 

Haha, hands down this will always be the best food to me... no argument! 

Ok, I'm all caught up to date on this challenge thing and we will just see how well I keep up with it. 

Also I'm thinking about starting a new tradition for my blog and it is called

                    Throwback Thursday!

This weeks photo is from my very first semester of college. It is so crazy to think that I will soon be done with two years of college! Time sure flies by and it is crazy to think of how much I've done, accomplished, and all the people I've met and the good friends that I've made! 

Life isn't measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. 

Walkin' in a winter wonderland

Rexburg has had quite the snowfall for a few weeks now.  I think the worst of it came last night through today. I would leave my car parked in a parking lot for 2 hours at the most and come out and have it completely covered in snow! This morning was the worst! I went out to start my car so I could get to class on time.  Turns out it decided to continue snowing through the night. The snow was up past the bottom of my door on my car! Crazy! Just as I was about to go start my car there was a girl right across the parking lot from me trying to get her car to reverse out of the parking lot. Well, after seeing her failing attempts to leave I got into my car a little discouraged and freezing from the snow I had to step in to get there. I got into my car and put it into reverse... to my surprise and happiness it reversed out of the parking spot with ease. Now it was time to make an attempt to leave the parking lot.  I was feeling good... just going down the dip to leave when yup you guessed it I got stuck! Great.. what a perfect spot to get stuck, right where people come and go. Well, I put it back into reverse and backed up got a little moment to go forward and made it out onto the main street.  Now the task was not to get stuck going up the hill past the temple and to the Clarke building.  Good news was I made it there, bad news was there were many people getting stuck and sliding around up and down that hill. Talk about danger! It's like people don't how to work a snowplow in this town. Anyways, there is still snow piled up everywhere, in some spots it's higher than me. I need all the luck I can get here. There are plenty of drivers from other states that don't get snow that don't know how to drive in it driving here. Oh goody! Make sure you all stay safe and warm in this crazy weather!

Out with the old and in with the new!

Hello! I know it has been a while since I posted, but as along with many others I have found that there isn't too much to post about.  So, this is just as update of life so far.  My Christmas break just seemed to fly by!! I spent some time with my family and it was great.  We took some silly pictures and played some Just Dance.  Spending time with them made it a little harder to come back to the frozen tundra that is my school.

Along with my Christmas break I went and saw the Salt Lake City temple lights for the first time ever in my life.  It was amazing! Not as packed as I thought it would be.  Everything was beautiful and there were so many lights! 

Now onto New Years! I am glad it's a new year, but sad to leave some of 2012 behind.  There were some good times and some bad times, but I am really excited to see what 2013 has in store for me. Make sure to get those resolutions running! 

Well, now I am back at school in the negative degree weather.  I rarely go outside and when I do it's to run to my car.  School keeps me really really busy and sometimes I'm not quite sure how to get it all done, but I manage.  I'm grateful for fantastic family and friends always! Until next time!
