new dress

DRESS 1

Yup! I splurged (AGAIN), I bought a new dress for myself today (well I actually bought 2)


DRESS 2

Ohhh man I love dresses, and I cannot wait for opportunities to wear this fabulous dreses!

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND YA'LL <3

not for the faint of heart..

Yes, that is a ladybug, DEAD, on a salad plate.

Yeah, it was an interesting lunch time to say the least. Thankfully it wasn't my salad, it was poor Sarahs.

We had just gotten done at the UVU cadaver lab (thanks, Matt) and I'll admit, my stomach had been doing some somersaults from the chemical smell in the lab. Nonetheless, we were all hungry and decided to get some grub.

We went to Rumbi's and each got salads...Sarah literally had only like 4 bites left of her salad when she found this pretty little thing lurking in the plate. Yeah, nasty, I know!

So Sarah went and complained to the manager, Kevin. He gave her a free meal. (thank goodness)

Anyway, I decided I am not going to eat there for a very LONG time...

Oh well, things got better from there, I look TaeCee and Sarah to THE CHOCOLATE and we got some yummy treats!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE The Chocolate. It is DESSERT heaven! Make sure you go sometime!

bangsssssssssssss

Yes! I took the plunge and went for a new look!
My cute friend Allie cut my hair last night and I feel like a new woman! I love the bangs!

Which was do you like them?



Bangs in the face



Bangs to the side

I love 'em BOTH ways! SOOOOO fun! Yay me for being daring! :)

disneyland

Soooooo....All I do is work and go to school....so I decided to take a little trip to California next month to get away.

Guess where?! Guess...guess...guess! YUP, you guessed correctly. DISNEYLAND!
I am so excited to go there - I will be traveling with my dear friends Ashley, Sarah, and _________. Ya, we are in the works of getting another cool chica to go with us!

I am soooo beyond excited, can I just tell you?! Ok, now that you know, I'll shut my mouth and get back to work....

I am accepting DONATIONS right now for the "Send Ashley to Disneyland" fund... ;)

{BLUSH}

{MINTY LIP GLOSS}

{FAB-U-LOUS EYESHADOW COMBO}

So what if I went a little crazy tonight at the Sephora check-out...I had a bad day. Bad day = retail therapy. I can't go anywhere since I have an inner ear infection, so I decided to redeem my little Sephora birthday gift...and while I was at it, I had some fun.

I am a makeup fanatic...I LOVE makeup. Makes me feel all pretty and sassy. I love the feeling of a brand new eyeshadow on your eyelids, or a new lip gloss on your lips, or a new tube of mascara, fresh on your lashes. I love makeup.

maybe it should be my {calling} in life - to do makeup as a pro...
...I'll just stick to cleaning people's teeth for now!

The Great Outdoors

Can I just say how excited I am for SUMMER and for the many trips out to my families cabin. This is my sanctuary. I love the mountains.

Summer come fast! PLEASE!

you can quote me...

"The most wasted of all days is one without laughter."
E.E. Cummings

"Go forward in great faith. The best lies ahead." President Gordon B. Hinckley

"Pain throws your heart to the ground.
love turns the whole thing around
no it won't all go the way, it should
but I know the {heart} of life is good"
-John Mayer

"I believe in pink.
I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner.
I believe in kissing, kissing a lot.
I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong.
I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls.
I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."
- Audrey Hepburn


"You cannot be mad at somebody who makes you laugh - it's as simple as that."
-Jay Leno

"Be deliriously happy.
Or at least leave yourself open to be.
Love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without.
I say fall head over heels.
Find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back.
Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back.
Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this.
To make the journey and not fall deeply in love -- well, you haven't lived a life at all.
You have to try.
Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived."
- Anthony Hopkins {in Meet Joe Black}

"We are what we believe we are."
C. S. Lewis


"A sure way to lose happiness, I found, is to want it at the expense of everything else"
-Bette Davis

"Try a little harder, to be a little better"
-Gordon B. Hinckley

"While you sit around thinking about what you can't change
and worrying about all the wrong things
time's flying by
moving so fast
you better make it count 'cause you can't get it back

Sometimes that mountain you've been climbing is just a grain of sand
What you've been up there searching for
forever is in your hands
When you figure out love is all that matters after all
It sure makes everything else
Seem so small"
-Carrie Underwood


"The world is in need of your help. There are feet to steady, hands to grasp, minds to encourage, hearts to inspire, and souls to save. The blessings of eternity await you. "
—President Thomas S. Monson

Elder Warner

I love my missionary...brother that is! Elder Warner is one of the greatest examples in my life. He is so spiritual, so smart, trendy, outgoing, likes to cook (not good for my waistline), he is always happy. Always willing to serve others. He is one of the greatest guys I know!
And I just wanted to tell the blogging world that I miss him dearly... I look forward to Monday mornings, that's when I get his emails.
I love you Elder Warner. Keep up the great work!
