I am so happy

We went to the St.George temple on Sunday and it was SO awesome. I loved how white the temple looked against the red rock, and the temple grounds were honestly BEAUTIFUL. After our hike we decided to do a little hike in the beautiful red rock- in our wedges NO BIG DEAL :) only Megann and I would think its a good idea to hike in wedges. We watched TV and laughed hysterically until our stomachs hurt. We also went in the hall and did hand stands against the walls- Megann somehow was able to dance and do a handstand at the same time. IMPRESSIVE! When I did my hand stand my arms collapsed :( looks like I need to do some upper body strength- real bad! St.George was a blast and I cant wait to do something like that again with Megann

St Geezyyyyyyy

 We packed too much! You cant see but there are 2-3 other bags on the ground. I admit I packed a bag just full of hair stuff, shoes and accessories

We met Lindsey at the pool with her brother Wyatt; honestly the CUTEST little kids ever! (well besides Lidia) <3

In St George we goofed off, laid out by the pool, ate food and had girl time! It was SUCH an amazing weekend.

It was so fun getting to spend some REAL QUALITY time with Megann. We are so similar its nice to be around someone who genuinely gets you. The drive down was very uneventful (which is good!) We ate cinnamon bears and listened to old music. Once we got there we met the hotel manager (such a sweet man!! He instantly became one of our favorite parts of the day when we would run into him!) then we immediately hit the pool.  More pictures to come later.

Im going out tonight in my red high heels <3

Alright I know most of you are tired of the same old posts but I have some updates on my life:

• I am really done being played and not being good enough for someone
• I have been working out EVERYDAY for almost an entire week
• I have been taking iron supplements and it is helping my energy level A LOT
• I have been laying out at the pool and enjoying tan lines and everything summer for the last week of my summer
• I am going to start meeting new people- my friend and I had a talk about the importance of stretching yourself and getting everything out of these opportunities
• I am going to go on the dates I normally would politely avoid
• I am going to enjoy my time being YOUNG and SINGLE

So I start school next week and am totally dreading it....BLAHHHH! Everyone always says "OMG you only have a 9 more months" which yes is great but its not YOU enduring those 9 months. I have been hanging out with Megann a lot lately which has been fun- we are planning a trip to St. George for Labor Day weekend. It is going to be SO much fun. I just booked the hotel (sketchyyyyyyy but hey theres a pool!) I seriously want to lay out, hike red rocks, eat and watch movies. Perfect girl get away <3

St Geezy hide your kids, hide your wife! 

He's just not that into you if:
-he's texting other girls in front of you
-he says he needs time to get over an ex
-he leaves early to go to a party
-he is trying to meet new girls every time you aren't around
-he only stays late if he wants to make out
-he calls you his friend/friends with benefits

Maybe I'll be the exception but I know I deserve more than this...

I dreamed as a girl that the guy I marry would think the world of me, make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world, make me laugh, hold me tight and make me feel safe and secure. I know fairytales don't exist and there is no prince charming but I deserve to be loved.

Dinner with Mom and Lidia at Texas Roadhouse 

Temple Square with Mom and Lidia

I already blogged about the amazing time I had with my family here in Utah, but here are some pictures from the week. I also just was home and honestly was with my family the ENTIRE time. It was so nice to be back and relax, hang out with my family and spend time with the family. I love them all SO much. I couldn't have asked for a better time. We went on the Seattle Duck Tour, ate Trappers sushi, went to the cabin, went boating (I have bruises to prove it!), had Michael/Ami/Braden/Caleb over for dinner, slept with Lidia every night, ate brisket/ribs, went to Aunt Emma's house and played A LOT of wii. It was AMAZING. Sorry to all of my friends though- I love you all but really was busy the ENTIRE time.

Life is so amazing. I honestly was laying in bed last night thinking- I dont know how life could get any better. (cliche I know but honestly!) I just moved into a condo, am taking finals, going home soon, starting to work out again, and have been unofficially living at the pool. I have an AMAZING family who loves and supports me (even when i can be difficult), and friends that I miss so much. Nate brought over N64 and we have been playing mario kart almost every night. I LOVE it!! I get so into it, last night I was near tears when I was in last place and going the wrong direction on the course.

Finals are going well. I think this is the first round of finals that I am not a nervous wreck. I am breaking out like crazy but my nerves are totally under control :) I feel confident in myself and my ability to kick butt on the tests! I leave for home after finals on Sunday until MONDAY! A WHOLE week and change. I am way way way excited to spend some time at home with my family (and trappers sushi! <3) I am going to admit I will miss seeing a certain person, and a week will feel like forever. He is the most amazing thing that has happened to me. He knows how to calm me down, cheer me up and does his best to make my life better. He even puts up with me when I am being sassy and stressed out. I love how understanding and patient he is, he is everything I want and need right now. xoxo
