Check!

This is old news... but i have completed another bucket list task so I thought an update was in order!

CATCH A BOUQUET AT A WEDDING

My beautiful ex-roommate Ashley Peterson recently got hitched to a sly guy named Mark Warren
and the classy celebration of their union provided me with a wonderful experience.



It was pretty competitive and I had to do some pushing that Im not particularly proud of but the important thing is that I caught it. I kept my eye on the ball and followed through! :) 
I was the happiest girl! What a beautiful thing the bouquet toss is.
& with that I will say......Check!

Guilty ( kinda gross) Pleasures....

Sierra and I were just talking about food... typical us. & we  started listing foods that we were embarressed that we love, Foods that we might eat only in our car or closet and  that we hide  all evidence that it was ingested. Anyway.
That secret shameful time of  our eating lives is vanishing as we have made a list for the public to enjoy.
let us begin with hostess crumb donettes, There is simply no other pastry parallel to this heaven sent delight.

the classic egg mcmuffin, The Mcdonalds in Logan now serves breakfast starting at midnight.... good for them.

vanilla coke.... uhhhhhuhh

Sierra loves TOTS! Call her Napolean.


Cream cheese frosting that is frosting nothing but my spoon.....im ashamed, but it happens.
cookie crisp or should i say coooooooooooookkkkiieeee crisp. regardless though, YUM!
we LOVE Oreos....there we said it.
+ PB= even better. Probably 100% influenced  by the childhood obsession with the Parent Trap, thanks Linds!
easy cheese... cheese in a can= BRILLIANT

another grotesque fact- we both just decided cheese fountians at our wedding receptions are a MUST!
 eww... not really!
Apple beer
Grilled Cheese & honey- not even embaressed cause its SO good
Sugar cookies..... all day errrryday!!!!


This is probably my weirdest post ever! So it serves as a perfectly good reminder that Si and I are awesome. Now you know next time you want to pig out a little who to come to.

Early Birthday Gift

An angel of a girl recently went to China and visited Starfish and took some pictures of some of my babes. I am SO happy, it is probably one of the best feelings i have ever had to see their faces and see that they are happy, doing well and still as cute as EVER!!!

Spoiled Little Me!

I have got a birthday coming up, every year around this time I try to take a step back and evaluate what I have done with that year of my life.  As i have been doing so for year # 20  I couldn't stop feeling so INCREDIBLY spoiled. I prepared some examples.

#1- My 20th birthday party that the cutest, most supportive roommates in the world threw for me.


#2- I graduated from SNOW after 2 years of drill team, student government, kissing, crying, adventures, and a little bit of learning. I love SNOW COLLEGE so much and feel so blessed to alumni.




 

#3-My summer job- I dont even care that my nursing job pays double. I love it and the sun and the swimming lessons makes me happier to go to work than I can fathem. So greatful for BC pool!



#4 My family vacations- Lake Powell was a a huge highlight i love my WHOLE family and I loved having fun Jenn and Val there with us. Also the winter ski trip weekend was SO fun with all the "snoozng and treats and treats and shredding" it was near ideal. I dont deserve such a stinking fun family but I have them so I am going to hang on.


#5- My Friends- Jenn, Ash, Tay, Si, Camrie, Linds, Neighbs, Tay Tay, Campie, Andy, Deb, Hannah, Becca & Shelbs- I really feel like they love me unconditionally and I got SO lucky in this department. Frankly I am surprised they are all still around. All my friends are SO good it would have made sense for them to directly translated years ago!




#6- China, my babies. Starfish changed my life. Not a day goes by that I dont pray for them. I feel like i "found myself" and I'm a more complete person.
 

#7- Christmas... duh.
#8- Apt 16f - Luck. The only way that I can explain that i live with 2 people that I feel like are JUST like me, that share clothes with me and make treats and love taco tuesday as much as I do.  also... my closet, NO college girl i know has sucha luxury! Everytime I get dressed I am reminded that I am living the high life. I love my closet I love it. thank you contracter who made that single ONE closet like that! Its a college dream come true.


#9- Nursing school, I complain about it but it is AWESOME, my class is like a little family and it has been a really great hard few monthes and the late night study groups, and funny drug stories and acrinims keep me going
#10- My family, I love them and more importantly they have master the ever so difficult task of loving me. My Dad and Mom LOVE each other so much and they do the cutest nicest things for me.
 Jordan is the epitamy of a big brother, Sierra truely is MY BEST FRIEND[[ last friday she showed up at my apartment and I almost lost it, she knows me so well and I feel rejuvinated after spending some time with that beautiful gal]]

& Jace is the funnest little rambuctious kid, I love that he lets me pick out his clothes and help him with his hair, he is a stud.


I had some of the HARDEST things, Ive been at my most vulnerable and and most sad during this year which i think made me grow and realize all the good things I have. The BEST things happened this year. Im sorry to see quite possibly the best year of my life go but i am optomistic that the next one will be great great great aswell!

nurses shmurses

 I realize I haven't checked in for a while and have some explaining to do. So take this for what is worth.
I'm in nursing school.
thus, I don't really have a life outside scholastic responsibility.
cool.
I am not really sure what I was thinking when I chose this carreer path. If i were to make list of things I love it would consist of, fashion, outdoors, spending time with friends and family. I realize at least for the time being none of those intrests are even remotely being stimulated. I thought I could spice up my uniform but alas i am trapped in the most homely little scrub wearing world for the rest of my working life with no hope. In addition to that to say that my program is highly time entensive would be an unjust understatement. So I am not only stuck inside for the  majority of the day the study time combined with that take nearly every free "kickin', chillin', and hangin' " second I have. PLEASE NOTE I SAID "NEARLY"- meaning, if  you want to we can still hang out, i'd love to actually.
All childish complaining aside, I am learning alot and for the most part I enjoy what I am learning. So that is good. Also once  I am done, 2 of my 3 previously listed intrests will be able to be more easliy met, as for those outfits I will do my best to not become a homely mindless mess.  I still love my roommates and get to see my family alot more now that I am just a beautifully scenic 30 minute drive away.  I'm a pretty happy girl.

collecting a speciman.

I am awake here @ 2am MST reviewing an illegally long list of review videos for my CNA renewal test which I have to take before i strart nursing school next week. To keep me awake i have been absentmindedly "stumbling" on the side in a smaller window. Most of the information covered in the videos is common sense and trivial really, but my mind  fell victim toextremely unforgiving whiplash as my attention was unfortunatly glued to the video that was currently playing in the background. 
Now, being the understanding, kind young woman that i am i have ofcourse included a link to said vidoe so you also can indulge! i call it, the video to end all late night review video watching.
there is simply nothing i like less than a friendly little reminder of why i actually hate the major and carrer path i have choosen. i  have chosen to just ignore this video and pretend that the is one activity i will NEVER perform.
ahh. the beautiful surpises we encounter at 2 am.
