Back home..

Back home.. to utah.. weird to say that utah is home, but i guess since i am officially a resident (strictly for school purpose!) i better call it home. I already miss my mom and dad and sisters and brothers and even seeing baby addie everyday! but i am very lucky/excited that zach is here in Utah with us! He has even already been over for dinner and to do his laundry! We are so thankful to have had the help of our parents moving back in and getting everything settled and cute! My mom even made some curtains and pillows for me and i ABSOLUTELY love them!!
This is one of the cute pillows my momma made!

These curtains match the pillows in our guest bedroom

These are in the kitchen!
These are on the front door and match my living room drapes!!
THANKS MOM! I LOVE THEM!

Happy birthday Jason!

Happy birthday Jason!! i hope i can make your birthday the best! i love you forever and ever!!

1st anniversary!

8/15/09=1 year of marriage :) it was such a fun easy going happy day.
It started when I woke up late so I brought Jason breakfast(cereal) in
bed I had to go take a midterm so he dropped me off. I took my test
and he brings me home and I find roses a sweet card and our wedding
cake on the counter so we decide to try some and the cake part not so
great the frosting.. DELiCioUS!! No joke I saved it all week so I
could pick the frosting off! We then went to the fair where we watched
zachy auction off his pigs and went around the fair all day. My
parents and us and zach all had a romantic dinner at taqueria- we went
home took a nap and then went back to the fair for some funnel cake
and a little fair shopping it was so much fun to have a simple day
spending all day together for next to no money I'd say it's one to
remeber- I love you husband can't wait for a million more to come!!!

1 year ago..

1 year ago, i was blogging about this hour of the night writing about my excitment for the next day. I knew it was going to be the best day of my life and i couldn't wait. here i sit one year later- knowing it was the best day of my life so far and cannot figure out where a whole year went..it has been the best year of my life- a dream come true. i have been so blessed. i am so excited for a wonderful first anniversary tomorrow and looking back on the best year and looking forward to eternity.i love my jason.

Pigs gone wild..

Zach's pigs made such a great impression on the judges.. not really.. but thats okay because they are at the fair, they made weight, they have super cool names, and he will auction them off on saturday and make a butt load of money so who even cares what the judges think. besides, they are the bad boy pigs, they kept getting in fights and never wanted to fit in with the crowd, just go out to the corners of the rink and hang out there. they do what they want when they want.zach was awesome out there jumping on his pigs when the judges weren't looking and all- great job zachy- can't wait for the auction.

CALIFORNIA JUNIOR MISS!!!

I am related to someone famous- not just anyone- the newest California Junior Miss!!! After winning Modesto junior miss, my talented darling cousin was able to compete at california junior miss this week; thursday, friday and saturday. I was trying to make plans to go, but knowing it didn't quite fit into our schedule or budget- we had to pass- and boy am i even more disappointed that we didn't arrange to go sooner. I am so proud of my little cousin- i have participated in many scholarship pageants but could never quite get it- she is living my dream and i couldn't be happier that it is her! She beat all the other juniors (in high school) from california and won a $15000 scholarship- and I AM SO EXCITED!!! CONGRATS PAIGE! YOU ARE AWESOME- I AM PLANNING NOW to be there next summer for AMERICA's JUNIOR MISS! (she even won the talent portion too- shes a pro at the violin!!)
Paige and I at my wedding, she caught the boquet :)

stress=gratitude

Why do i stress out to the max!? i need to figure something out to control this chaos of my life! I cannot believe summer is almost at an end- its been one of the craziest summers of my life yet the best! from provo to chicago then chicago to ca and on the 19th back to provo- so much moving! I have been taking too many summer classes and working and applying for school and studying for many tests (i hope i pass my instructor test next week!)and studying for nursing entrance tests ugh i hope it all works out But somehow it always does- oh don't forget about money...i talked with my old married sister (JK britt) and she says that stress about money never ends,great! and even next week is our one year anniversary- so what do we do?!!! BUT on a positive note: We are house sitting this week- SO FUN! and the house is adorable and it is inspiring. I have been inspired to try to decorate my condo much cuter and inspired to have cuter clothes and inspired to join her 'we are losers club' and i've even lost 5 pounds this week... :) (maybe it's from the stress..HA) But sometimes i just have to write all this out in and realize that i have so many things to be thankful for and so much support from everyone and my heavenly father who will listen to me and help me and there is never more than i can handle. I am so greatful for the gospel in my life and the happiness it brings to me- no matter how stressed out i am i know i can get on my knees and he will listen- and i can open up my scriptures and there is an answer. I am going to go write an "I am thankful for" list.
