Wedding Bells!!

So Bekah and I were talking the other day about weddings; I can't recall how we got on the subject but we did. Well she mentioned that she still had hers and suggested that I try it on... I forgot how beautiful it was! And she got it for mega cheap! (I think only two hundred dollars) Well! She told me if I wanted it that I could have it for when I get married! I LOVE IT!



Its not what I typically wanted growing up, but after I was wearing it, I love the simplicity of it! Its not a princess dress. Simple but gorgeous:) So this goes out to Katie, who I told it about and wanted to see it really bad. Just don't distribute it and tell everyone I'm getting married;)



The pictures don't show the back because we didn't lace it up all the way, (That is why it looks a little slackened on the side) but oh well. You get the jist of what it looks like:)

Hello family!

I know its been forever since I've posted anything, and I apologize for it! It's been only a little hectic. I moved into a new apartment this last week, and I've been in and out of town. I got back last night and I'm leaving again tonight to go on some other wild adventure:)

I hope you are all doing well. Work is going good. I'm making enough to pay rent! WHOO! My new roommates are very nice and thoughtful. I can tell that they actually like me by the way they talk to me:)

I'll take some pictures and put them up soon. I hope this finds everyone well! I love you all!

"I love you, fishy"

These are our fishies that we bought the other day:) Twenty eight cents each is bargan for two college students who need some life in their room. Haha. They are way rad fish:) "I love you, fishy!"

Best Friends:)

This is Melissa and I at the Jordan River Temple:) We are so funny! Oh my gosh, this girl is the best! She's a good girl, and her laugh is hysterical. She just knows how to have fun and be herself, and she doesn't care what other people think. I just love her! But it seems that everytime we hang out, I get hurt. haha. Last week, she elbowed me in the armpit, it souds lame, but it hurt so bad! For almost two days! And then she elbowed me in the temple the next night, and the same night, she fell, and took me down with her, and I hit something, leaving this huge goose egg on the side of my head. Haha. And we just laugh about this stuff, because it all happens on accident, (I promise she's not violent). Last night, she knee'd me under my jaw, and that one didn't so much as 'hurt' but it just felt weirrdd. And then, I've been poked in the eye, and she fell again last night, and I of course went down also, landing on my knee's and bending my back backwards. haha. That one did hurt, but I felt fine five minutes after. So yeah, we have adventures, but I'm so glad that I have her as my friend! Life wouldn't be nearly as fun without her! :)

Jordan River Temple

This is the Jordan River Temple. I had never been to this one before, and although it is older, it is so beautiful! The one of me and Melissa at the fountain is so funny! Its my favorite:)

Tourists:)

This is such a tourist picture! But I had to have one. Right behind his big stone, was a huge wedding party taking pictures outside. There were, I think, three weddings while we were here at this temple alone. It was crazy, but I can't help but notice how happy they looked, and how much, if I ever find someone special, I want us to be married in the temple. It truely is an amazing place:)

Oquirrh Mountain Temple

This is the new Oquirrh Mountain Temple. It is so pretty! From the very front, it looks like a tall chapel. Melissa and I went and visited Oquirrh Mountain, Draper, and Jordan River Temples. I love the feeling I get on the grounds. It is somthing you can't match to anything else.

I always forget about all my problems there. Its such an amazing feeling. I love Temples! :)
