Hello December.
It's nice to see you.
But where did November go?

I love this picture.
It has a lot of meaning in where
I am in life right now.


I've dated quite a big over the previous two years. I've gone on various dates. Some were great. Some were lame. Some I made new friendships from. & Some helped me gain new perspectives. It's amazing at how far I have come from that quiet girl who was afraid to even date. That girl who thought she'd be single forever. (You think I'm over exaggerating, but that's really how I felt.) I'm so grateful for all the boys that have taken me out over the past two years. They have made me want to be a better person & I've learned so much from them. Both about myself & the people I wish to surround myself with. I'm thrilled to finally be in a healthy relationship with someone who wants to be in a relationship with me. Someone who is willing to put effort into a relationship. Someone who appreciates me. Cloud nine, where have you been all my life?

As Megan puts it: It's about time someone has buttered my flies. Hahaah.

But look at all the things I have accomplished & the good that has come from all of those trials. If my life had maintained how it was a few years ago, I would not have been happy. I would not have met so many people who have changed my life. I'm grateful for those trials. & I'm grateful for every one of you.

Well Hello.

It's been a while. School has been consuming my life. Psychological stats is killer & my family crisis & intervention class requires a lot of work. Infancy/toddler lab is so fun. I love it, yet it can be stressful at times. I do believe I caught a cold from being so stressed from it this semester. Hopefully that will be the last sickness I will contract for the remainder of the year. Did I mention I am NOT getting a flu shot this year? Last year was terrible. Yes, I am aware that the flu shot last year was the worst it has ever been, but I feel healthier without it. So. There.

Halloween this year was a blast. I went to a Halloween party at my cousin's house. I dressed up as BATMAN, girl version. & J went with me. She dressed up as a Bat. Ha. It was a lot of fun. Cami's family dressed up as the Flintstones. So adorable. My costume was epic. I loved it & couldn't thank J enough for helping me out with it & providing me a big bow, black fish nets, yellow bumpkins, & a black sparkly tutu. SHE IS WONDERFUL! & I'm so grateful to have her in my life. We just . . get each other. Ha.

So around the first of October one of my friends from high school added me on twitter. I haven't heard from him since he switched to Syracuse high my junior year. Last weekend we might have gone out on a date. It was a blast. I've never been so nervous in my life. I kept telling my mom "I'm so nervous & I have no idea why . . . " Anyways. We went to Chili's & Boondocks & did a double with his friends. It was fun. They were really cool too, which made the night flow even better. We are hanging out again this Friday night. We will see what comes out of this. But right now, it's just new, fun, & exciting. It's been a while. . . I like it.

The semester is ending in a few weeks. I have a bittersweet reaction towards it. I'm so excited to be done with some of my classes! I CAN NOT WAIT! On the other hand, Amanda is moving out. UGH. What am I going to do without her? For real though. We've become great friends over this past semester. & When I find friends like that I keep them close & cherish the friendship that we have. Her & Megan are definitely two of my best friends. Thankfully I will have Megan here to finish out the school year with me.

Life is good!! SO GOOD!!

Are you ready for photo explosion? Geez.
Okay this summer was pretty eventful. Four concerts & one more to go.

TIM McGRAW Started the concerts out.
He came with Brantly Gilbert & Love&Theft.

 He did an awesome show. Although he didn't do many older songs. He did a lot off of his new album. Which . . . basically nobody knew. But it was still good.

Next up:
KENNY CHESNEY
He came with Kacey Musgraves & Eli Young Band.

 This was such a fun night with these girls. Girls night. All five of us went. & It was a lot of fun. Minus the parking. I drove down to USANA & for any of you that have been to usana, you know it's hell getting out of that parking lot. So, so terrible. After we ended up stopping at tacobell. Not knowing their drive thru was broke. We waited for 40 minutes to get food. This was probably thee longest concert night of all of them. We didn't get back until two ish AM. It was crazy. However, so far, Kenny Chesney has been my favorite. & $35 dollars later I have a shirt to show for it. EEK! Oh well, so worth it. That's all that matters. He did a lot of his older stuff & I LOVE IT! Best concert of the year, so far. :) Can't get too far ahead of us. We still have one more to go this year. :) Also, J & her boyfriend went. It was nice to spend the first two performances up sitting with them. Love spending time with them. They are a riot! :)

 In the midst of all this crazy summer. I did however get to spend some time with my J. She's adorable. Love her. We did a firepit one night. Roasted marshmallows with her cute family at their new place. & all of her 10 kids. Ha. It was a great time. Love spending time with her. & we might have shared some marshmallows. HAHAH. oh boy.

Got to see cute little Fallon this summer.

What a little cutie face! She's precious. Absolutely precious. We had a little get together for my uncle's birthday and the family went down to my uncle Don's house. Got to see everyone. & Had a great time. Love family time. I don't see them enough.

Next concert BRAD PAISLEY:
He came with Lee Brice & Chris Young.

So I actually ran into Chandra & a few of my other friends from high school at this concert. It was really good to go & talk with Chan. She got married like a week or two after this concert. It was really good to catch up with her. & My cousin Cami & her husband went to this concert. It was good to catch up with them as well. I went and talked to them in between shows. & talked with Chandra during Chris Young. The concert was great. Brad Paisley has THEE BEST graphics of any other concert that I have ever EVER been to. I was super impressed. Although, I didn't know a ton of his songs. Danced the night away with thee girls & Josh. Ha.

Next upppp ALAN JACKSON:
He came with. . . Sarah Darling?

Now see, Alan Jackson I actually ended up being sick for. I didn't want to go much. But I'm glad I did. I ended up dancing the night away with Kerina & Josh. I knew quite a few of his songs. But if anyone ever figures out who Sarah Darling is, let me know. Because after her performance, I still don't know who she is. Kerina's friend Justine drove. Geez. We were there in a flash & home in a flash. Home before midnight. It was pretty impressive! The key is driving in the south side rather than the north. Except, how do you get in the south side? I have no idea. I wish I wouldn't have been sick for this concert. But I made the best of it.

Well. Moved back to Logan. It's been good so far. School started last week & it's been . . a rush so far. Went to the UTAH STATE VS THE U game down at the U last week. It was good. Wish USU would have won though, but still a close game. Cameron made me wear that red color. I have to say, I'm pretty sure my new U shirt is my very first RED shirt. Seriously. Am I lame? Must be. Need to branch out with my colors more I suppose.

School is going great. This semester I'm taking: Family Crisis & Intervention (the professor is super intimidating so far. AHH), Human Sexuality (Which I'm super excited for this class. HAHA. Sounds so stupid. Don't judge me.), Infancy & Childhood (which includes a lab, YAY! Working with the little toddlers will be so much fun!), & Psychological Statistics (which also includes a lab. AHH. I'm pretty nervous for this class. & It doesn't help that the book & all homework is done online. I don't like that.) ANYWAYS, It's a full load this year. Working a lot less this year. Only twice a week & every other Saturday. Shouldn't be too terrible. Hopefully.

Work has been great. Just . . . . Keep on Keepin' on. Should be getting a raise here pretty soon. The papers have been submitted & now we wait. Oh the dreadful waiting process.

Been going on some dates. Here & there. Nothing too . . . serious. Just mostly hanging out. Hopefully I can concentrate on school this semester rather than a man. Who needs a man? Not this girl.
