I Love To See The Temple

Since I was about 3 years old I have been singing "I love to see the temple". We talked about the temple, had lessons about the temple, drove by the temple, and made it a goal that someday I would be able to go to the temple. I finally made it to the temple. It was a wonderful day that I was able to share with my parents, Tyler, and sweet young womens leaders and friends from my home ward.

I can't wait to go back.

DC

I have been a major slacker in taking pictures lately! Especially at Thanksgiving. Idk what my deal is. We had a blast in Maryland. I love going home but it also makes me miss home a ton.

DC after I spilled hot chocolate all the way down my coat. {I was not a happy camper.}

Spy Museum!

I love love love this picture of us.

Thanks family & McNeils for such a fun couple of days!

Who Says I'm Not Ready To Be Married??

Hahaha.

Actually, nobody has said that.

If I can do this. I can do anything.

I just figured I would know a lot more by the time I got married. {I know I would be saying the same thing if I was getting married when I was 30!}

Hello Monday.

Hello Monday.

Yes, my hair did grow really fast. Or I got extensions. One or the other.

This weekend we...

• Addresssed invitations {I am marrying a man with amazing handwriting}
• Stuffed invitations
• Met up with a friend at Starbucks
• Did more invitations
• Saw the lights on Temple Square
• Got our guestbook {Thanks mom}
• Wished we could have seen Em perform in her play

40 days.

December.

Wow. Is it really December?

Do Tyler and I really get married in 6 weeks and 1 day?

Yes. and Yes.

Life is GREAT.

Feeling very blessed to have such amazing friends and family.

We can't wait to be married.

Marry Me

I think this is the cutest song.

Sorry, I know I am gaggy.

When I had friends who were getting married I was always secretly grossed out with all their loveyness. I get it now. I just hope we don't gross people out.

We are just SOOO excited to get married, and continue being in LOVE for the rest of forever, and help each other continue to be our absolute best.

Wedding plans are coming along perfectly. I love planning.

65 days.

P.S. sorry I do not know how to properly format videos.

November

Hello November.

When did you get here?

Seriously- time is FLYING by.

Somedays I want it to keep speeding by... but other days I need it to S-L-O-W down.

October was bomb.com {not just because I got engaged, but for a million and one other things}!

November is bringing:

Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving!!!!

but before we get to that...


5 events
Visit from Dad
Sunday in Logan
A wedding {not mine}
Harry Potter
Visits to the amazing dress maker

Love It.

I am working a dance competition this weekend so I get to sit through a lot of dances. My favorite part is listening to their music selection... heard this one this morning. The beginning is a little slow but it gets quicker and I am obsessed!

There is no official music video for this-- but its kind of funny!

The Today Show

I like to watch The Today Show.

I especially like the Halloween special.

A little J. Beib, Lady Gaga, Superman, and Ameila Earhart action going on.

Nothing beats Halloween 2009.

Gets me everytime.

Engagement Pics

I have looked at a lot of engagement pictures in my life, and when I say a lot, I mean A LOT. I am extremely picky in what I like and what I do not like. Not all photographers can take good pictures; it is a talent. Having a nice camera does not {I repeat- DOES NOT} make you a photographer. I literally cringe when I see bad wedding pictures. Anyways... as soon as I saw this photographer a few months ago, I knew she had to be the photographer at my wedding! Her name is Camilla Binks and she is AMAZING.

One of my favorite pics!

I could spend all day looking through her blog and website {and I have}. You can see some more pictures from our engagement shoot on her blog!

I'm Engaged!

I am sure you all know that by now... if not I apologize!!

Thought I would share a few pictures Ty had on his phone from the proposal!

I love this pic-- I am so excited!!!
90 golf balls for 90 days until we get married!!
All of these candles put off a lot of heat!!

October

I love October. I love Autumn. I love my life!!!

Here is what I am looking forward to...

• National Event
• Having 2 Saturdays off
• Girls Day Out
• Witches Hat Soiree
• Haunted Forest
• Sweater weather
• Fall colors
• Scary movies

Things that have already been enjoyed...

• Dad visiting
• Conference with Kady & Tyler
• Eating way too many cupcakes and drinking too much Sonic Vanilla Coke
• Tyler visiting me at work
• Visiting Cristin and her little kiddos- they were cracking us up

It's All Good

Life is good.

Really good.

{Plus, Season 2 of Cake Boss came out today!}

Don't Leave Me.

Thanks for visiting Best Friend.

It was a freaking blast.

You are the best friend a girl could ask for.

See you in 52 days.

There Really Is A Job For Everyone

Don't believe me?

Go to the circus.

A job for everyone I tell you.

It was a blast. I have not been to the circus in forever. Our favorite acts were probably the motorcyclists in the sphere and anything that involved flying and jumping through the air in sparkly costumes. Most unimpressive act-- the tigers.

All My 11 Year Old Wishes Have Come True

I {still} heart

HANSON.

My bff and I were able to see Hanson last night, and they were AMAZING. Seriously. I loved them when I was 11- who didn't love MMMbop?! I fell in love with them again when I was 16 and have loved them ever since. Their latest cd is the bomb-- Shout It Out. I highly reccomend it.

The opening act was A Rocket to the Moon. They were also amazing. Listen to this song. I knew one of their songs and recognized a few others. I am getting their cd. The opening act before that was alright until they brought up their special guest who wanted to be Eminem from 1999. Unfortunatley he is about 11 years too late.

I knew almost every song- and LOVED every single song. They sang some of their old songs too- so needless to say it was a PERFECT evening. It was a fabulous way to end a wonderful visit with my bff.

More pics to follow-- these are just from my phone!

We Might Need A Photographer.

Just sayin.

We might.

She is here...

I am here...

Does life get any better than this?!

Happy Birthday

Schpoops,

It's your birthday!!! I hope you have an amazing day. I LOVE you so much. Thank you for everything.

My Brain

Does your brain ever just go on this rapid fire of thoughts and you have to tell yourself to "calm it down"? {My creative writing teacher called it stream of consciousness. I just call it ADD on a Friday afternoon.} I am having that right now. Holy cow. Seriously.

• Do you think I can fit into childrens size Ugg boots?
• Is drinking Red Bull on an empty stomach a poor choice?
• What movie should I rent when Elaine gets here?
• How many days left till Thanksgiving? {Bought tickets today-- thanks Mom & Dad}
• I hope my event goes well...
• Why is the office sooo quiet on Fridays?
• I LOVE Project Runway.
• Taylor Swift has a really cute line of cards- IDK all the places they are sold but I do know they are at ShopKo.
• Why am I breaking out like a 15 year old?
• I am super excited for Cake Boss Season 2 to come out. {October 5th}
• I really want some chocolate covered cinnamon bears right now.
• Tyler is the most patient person ever. I love him so much.
• I love pink post-its.

Whooo. That is a lot. Do you ever meet people and want to know what is going through their brain? Well- you no longer need to wonder about me.

The Countdown Is On.

Okay- the countdown has totally been on since you bought your ticket. I am so excited.

ELAINE will be here in 8 days. I repeat. 8 days. I tell anyone who will listen that she is on her way!

I LOVE this girl. She is my best friend. I feel like I have not seen her in ages. I am beyond thrilled that she is coming to spend some time with me!

Night before I left for college {over 5 years ago}. She is so sweet to take pics with me even when my eyes dissappear.
