My baby sis left me for the Key West.

I don't totally blame her for a number of reasons namely:

I'm in Utah and its winter.

She has been blogging it has made me realize I've missed the blogging world.

Here is a little update of my exciting life.

October

I love Fall but, I'm not a huge Halloween fan. Dance parties. dressing up like a hoe. and chili are not high on my list (although Hokus Pokus gets me everytime)BUT I'll have you know I loved this year.

That is right

{Rock. Paper. Scissors}

November

Thanksgiving was filled with family and friends! Best.Thanks.ever.

{with my favorite little girlies}

December

Brings Memories of: Ice skating. Nephews. Family&Friends. Frantic shopping. Game nights. Baking. And Nienie.

January

Has given me high hopes for a fabulous New Year! I LOVE January. I love setting goals. I love looking at the pass year and I LOVE looking at the future.

Here's to HAPPY 2012 :)
{If you want a happy future, start living happy now}

I had a much needed hair appt yesterday.

Touch up on the color.

Maybe some chopping.

BUT

When you're offered tickets to the Jazz VS Lakers game...

YOU'VE GOT TO RESCHED.

in case you were wondering

i've never been one to schedule my week around t.v. shows.
like ever.

okay other than Gossip Girl.

Well and i once was obsessed with Grey's Anatomy.
when i say obsessed...really there is no other word to use to describe well, maybe addicted.
i stopped for a few good reasons namely: my health.
1. i stayed up way to late so...
2. i wasn't sleeping.
3. my social life my have lacked some
and
4. i even started to think about changing my major my senior year of college for very valid reasons...
...my medical terminology and i could diagnose anything from a broken leg to bronchitis! pure talent.

So one day i stopped cold turkey and in the middle of a season too.

Thanks to my bff I now have netflix on my phone.
Do you know what this means?!
My time at the gym lately has consisted of me catching up.
I am one happy gym-go-er.

It's been awhile since i've been to the gym.
When i say a while i mean a long time.
like a month in a half.

SO tell me you secrets.
What keeps you a happy gym-go-er?!

warning: this post might be a little out there

There are just some things that I will be better at than my future Mr. 

You know, when I become a Mrs. 

Anyway.

There are just a few things I can think of that shouldn't be a problem but they are valid concerns of mine.

I live in the center of Utah County.

Judge me.

I have found  that sometimes it can be difficult to tell whether some guys are straight or not.

 ... I'm not sure if guys realize that we girls can't tell but i feel like that should be a concern for them. no?

a little bit freaky.

So,

I will have better style.

Style is something that is changeable so it's really not a deal breaker

...i mean unless he is a better dresser than me. I just do not see it working.

I will be better at tennis.

Well, I don't have to be completely better because some competition is completely necessary.

Last and certainly not least:
I will have better hair.

Today on lunch break I waited for a boy to cross the street...His hair was 

1. longer than mine (so immediately jealous)

2. He had an awesome natural hair color.

3. beautiful curls. 

...Long story short, if he was a girl, I would have lusted after her hair. 

I just feel like this is not too much to ask for.

Right? 

Stand By Me

I realize there are some of you out there who are not fans of youtube.

and to be honest, i'm not a huge fan either

But there are some funny, as well as, inspirational things out there.

This summer i made some new friends (crazy, i know) and some nights we watch more youtube then one could handle.

This could be old news but I was introduced to Playing For Change.

Stand By Me.

One of my favorites, what do you think?!
I know you love it.

Happy Tuesday!!!

moving on

I've deactivate facebook before and I've had many good reasons 

but I am always talked into getting it back. 

Friday I decided to deactivate it for good and for no super great reason, 

other than for me, it's a waste of time. 

My thinking was valid and it's not like it was an irrational thing to do.

 I mean it's just facebook, right? 

...

I thought that maybe

 I would get a lot more reading done.

 maybe more blog posts?

time doing things that I just "don't" have time for.

...ya right. 

So my facebook replacement has been online shopping.

I have issues. This was never in the plan. What is my problem? 

pintrest

I truly believe that 

we make time for those things in our life that we want in our life. 

So, I've made some new goals. 

I l.o.v.e. making goals. For real. 

Try it.

and remember,

A goal unwritten is merely a wish.

Write it down. 

Check it off.

It feels great.

xoxo

lovely

Have you ever got your hair done and afterwards been like...

omg I should have paid him/her more!!!

Me either...

 until YESTERDAY!!!

seriously, you guys don't even understand(or maybe you do?).

I have waited so long to find a replacement and I have finely found her.

I just had to share how happy it makes me.

google+

I'm slightly annoyed because I'm trying to make a new email account with google...of course. Anyways, everything somewhat professional with my name in it is taken. any suggestions?
 ...Other than gettings married so I can have a new last name?

Side note. Is everyone a fan of Google+  My only issue so far has been adding everyone in Salt Lake County. whops. Other than that, I'm loving it.

The first weekend in October is my favorite and for many reasons but namely just two.
1. I feel like fall is officially here.
and

2. General Conference.  

Happy Friday

break.

do not judge me... I'm not sure what just happened to my blog...but I have got to figure things out.
maybe, It's been a rough day...actually it hasn't at all. Today I slept in, helped my mom bake cookies and I didn't go into work until noon.

AND on a even happier note...

1. I'm getting my hair done on Thursday.
2. I'm super excited for this Utah Blogger PaR-tee.
3. Summer is still here.
and

4. I played play with my sister all weekend long.

5. Rumor has it: the Iphone5 comes out October 12. 

I guess I just wanted to stop by and say hi. I really miss the blogging world. xoxo

obsessed

My current obsession.

Rose Gold.

So I have been needing this Michael Kors Rose Gold watch for like ions now, it's getting a little ridiculous.

Today as I was pinning, I found my wedding ring. 

So future husband, if you are reading this...

Take a look.

Happy Wednesday!!!
