Happy 10 Year Anniversary!

Who am I celebrating a 10 year anniversary with?! Elaine. My BFF.

We met 10 years ago- when we were 13 years old and in 8th grade. I can't remember if we "officially" met the 1st or 2nd day of school. After we met we were pretty much best friends. I feel so blessed to have her in my life. We were seriously made to be best friends. We have had our ups and downs- but thankfully far more ups than downs. She is my best friend. She is the "best friend" that is so comfortable- I sing in the car with her, dance in front of her, tell my stories with no points to her, can be 100% honest with her. We have had so many fun memories- and I know we are going to have more in the years to come!

See you in 25 days!

Goodbye Summer?

It sure feels like Fall this morning.

Chilly temperatures {okay so 50 degress to me is chilly}.

and

an early morning rain storm {the kind that makes you want to stay in bed all morning}.

Are you here to stay or just tricking me so that I pull out my Fall clothes?!

The boyfriend.

Tyler is the best thing that has happened to me.

I love him so much. No matter what we do-grocery shopping, laundry, eating, baking cookies, hiking, working-out, etc. We have so much fun. We laugh all the time. He is even starting to LOVE taking pictures {you think I kid- I don't}.

Before the picnic and hike. {One of the funnest dates ever.}

Walking around the lake.

Weekend Fun.

We got to eat at The Myan Saturday night!

It was such a fun day-- we ate lots of cake, and then got a free meal!

Does life get any better than that?!

Random. He stole my camera....

My new favorite pic!

Other hightlights of the weekend included:

Cute wedding reception in Provo.

Quick visit with Cristin in Provo.

A few trips to Sonic {we may be obsessed with Diet Coke w/vanilla}

Working out

Sunday dinner

Good conversation up the canyon

Food Court and People Watching.

Date nights are the best.

Tyler and I could be in the most boring place ever and still have a great time.{Luckily- we have never gone to the most boring place.} We met up with 2 of his friends for a double date- we ate at the food court at the mall. I had forgotten how the mall is a middle school hangout! That made for spectacular people watching!

I love anything bad for you.

Including these.

See You Soon.

My family is officially back in Maryland.
I miss them.
Even though I have not been with them for the last week- it hs been nice knowing that they are in the same state as me!
Luckily I will get to see my mom {and hopefully dad} in September! Sisters and parents in November & December!
Oh! and Tyler gets to see them in August- which is almost as good as me being there!

Love you family.
See you soon.
