No Racing Silly Girl

It’s not a race.

Today I sweet friend reminded me that things in life are not a race. We were specifically talking about marriage and having families. I love the opportunities and things that I have in my life right now, but I know there is something more- something that will only add to my happiness and the awesomeness of life’s journey. It is not a race to get married, have children, graduate college, buy a house, or anything else that sometimes appears like a competition. Life is not a race. Thanks Dave for the reminder :)

"Better a silly girl with a flower, than a silly boy with a horse and a stick."

I think of this quote when I am acting like a “silly” girl. Not the fun silly, but the why am I feeling crazy jealous or I must be more into him than I thought cause the thought of him with someone else makes me “crazy”.

Shredder! Today while Dave and I were studying on campus a girl walked by with huge holes and runs in her jeans and Dave called her shredder. He then told me that over the weekend one of his buddy’s was a on date and his date had “shredded” jeans and another buddy called her Shredder.

I know this is a rather random post, but enjoy!

Spring Spring Spring

Spring is officially here! I am excited! Here are some pictures of things that I think of when I think of Spring! This Spring I will ride my bike, play in the flowers, wear rain boots(love these!) wear cute dresses like this one, watch preseason baseball, hope for a super awesome Final Four, plus many more things and enjoy enjoy enjoy! What do you love about Spring? What are your plans?

Fun With Jessica

On Saturday I went to the Miss Spanish Fork pageant with my friend Jessica. It was so much fun laughing and playing with Jessica! I can't even remember the last time we did something. No matter how much time seems to past Jessica and I remain great friends with lots to talk about. She is the mother of two cute, fun kids. It's great to see friends make good choices and remain a positive influence for good in life. I am so grateful for true friends, who know me, love me, encourage me, and are there for me.

Fills-The-Face-Smile

Today, I had an accounting test. This was not a fun or pleasant experience. As I was completing my test a smile I greatly appreciate came in. There was Dave with his big, fills-his-face-smile. It was a great stress reliever to see a smiling face during a rather frustrating experience. Thanks Dave for your encouragement and smile during the happy and not-so-happy situations. I have to admit I thought of the Bad English song, "When I See You Smile". I know this is a song from one of the "hair bands" of the 80s, but it's a good one ;) If you want to see some great "hair band" hair from them check out the video on youtube.Here's a few lines:

"Every thing's all right

When I see you smile

I can face the world

Oh you know I can do anything"

Do smiles cheer and lift you too? I hope so!:)

Yahoo it!

Anytime I say I need to Goggle something or tell Dave to this is his response, "No Yahoo-it". I have to admit saying, "Yahoo-it" over "Goggle-it" is a little more fun. So, next time you need to search something on the internet or your telling someone else to say, "Yahoo-it" instead and enjoy the reaction and the neatness of saying, "Yahoo-it"!

At Last

Today, I heard the song "At Last". I've heard it many many times, but oh how I love it! So, I wanted to share it...well the lyrics anyway.  If by some chance you haven't heard it, look it up you will not be sorry. 

At Last, by Etta James

At last, my love has come along

My lonely days are over

And life is like a song

Oh, yeah, at last

The skies above are blue

My heart was wrapped up in clovers

The night I looked at you

I found a dream that I could speak to

A dream that I can call my own

I found a thrill to rest my cheek to

A thrill that I have never known

Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile

Oh, and then the spell was cast

And here we are in heaven

For you are mine

At last

Happy March! Spring Is Close Close Close!

                             
Spring is close close...so close I can feel it. This morning while walking to class the sky was blue, birds were singing, the cool air was not a winter cool air. It is starting to smell, look, and feel like Spring! I am so ready to be riding my bike, studying outside, not wearing my heavy coat, are just a few of things I am ready and excited for.  I found this picture on ldschurchtemples.com. I love it! Tulips and Spring  go hand and hand.  I am also excited for Spring to get here, because that means my bff will be not only a Utah County resident, but will living in Provo! I am so excited to have her be even closer. I am so grateful for her and that for the last few weeks I've had the opportunity to see her a lot more. I am super excited to have her living here in P-Town!  I am grateful for good friends who keep me laughing and listen. Masaya Ang Aking Puso :)
