Day 21: A photo of something that makes you happy

Do I really have to only chose one? I have a whole facebook photo album called random stuff i find that makes me happy. it is full of old memories, great roommates and friends and great pranks my friends and I pulled on each other. I guess you could go look at it there if you are my friend on facebook. Here is a preview though.

The top picture is my friend Sandy's dog Tanner. He was at the rifle range at camp so we put eye and ear protection on him :) the next is when i caution taped my friend Jake's car. too bad he never saw it... and the last is a giant flag at an SUU football game.

Day 20: The meaning behind your blog name

Well it is pretty self explanatory. It is my blog, so I labeled it so. :) I now think I should have been more creative in naming my blog. hmmm maybe i will try and change that someday.... if it is even possible to do that.

Day 19: another picture of yourself

This picture was taken by my wonderful college roommate Katie Wimer. This was back in the day when I was in ROTC. Oh the fun times :)

Day 18: Something you crave a lot

This is easy. Sushi. I love it. It is kinda out of my budget right now though.

Day 17: a picture of you and your family

I wanted to get an updated one of these this Christmas while we were all in Utah, but I forgot. This picture is from 2009. Yeah my family is getting so big it is hard to fit us all into the picture.

Gotta love ALL of them :) There are a 2 nieces and a nephew missing from this picture.

Day 16: your celebrity crush

I honestly don't have one. Yeah there are good looking celebrities but there isn't a single one I would say that i have a crush on. Now if Lyil's band makes it big then I will have a celebrity crush. The guitar player of Ember Ridge :)

Day 15: Something you don't leave the house without

I know everyone probably is doing the cell phone. That is true of me too, but the other thing I will never leave the house without is chapstick. Lyil says I am addicted. It is true. I am ok with this. I have to have chapstick multiple times a day. If I do ever forget it, I go crazy until I can get home to get it or get to a store to buy more.

Day 14: A TV show you are currently addicted to

I can't say that I am addicted to any TV show right now. But the last one I was addicted to, which I still love and will watch sometimes, is The Big Bang Theory. It is SO FUNNY!!!

Day 13: Your favorite musician and why

I would have to say Garth Brooks. I love country and there aren't many of his songs that I don't like. I have heard many other musicians do covers on his music.  He is a respected artist and has great music!

Day 12: A picture of the town you live in

Good ol' Orem Utah! This is the city center. It is kinda hard to find a picture of a town.

Day 11: What's in your make up bag

Good question. My make up bag is packed up in some box somewhere. It has been for a year or so now. The make up I wear daily is laying on my vanity right now. Black eye liner and black mascara. That's it. I have no need for lots of make up and I get lots of comments about how pretty my eyes are so I must be doing something right. :)

Day 10: A photo of your favorite place to eat

hmmm This is always a hard choice because it all depends on my mood. I really love Sushi Ya though. Their Crystal Shrimp roll is awesome!

Day 9: A photo of something you last purchased

Yep, I bought deodorant and chocolate :)

Day 8: a song to match your mood

I'm not really sure what my mood is right now, but since I just did the post about weddings, I will share Love Like Crazy by Lee Brice.

I love the lyrics of this song. Listen closely and you will hear the best advice to make you stay in love forever. I hope you all like it.

Day 7: Your perfect Wedding

Ok, I am back at it. My Dream wedding will be here:












The Mt. Timpanogos Temple. I hope to get married in the spring or summer so it is warm. I plan on wearing this dress:

I would love to have my colors be Green and Brown. I want the green to be a bright spring green like the color of leaves. If I could have my reception outside or in a garden or greenhouse it would be awesome! I want lots of plants and fresh flowers. I love this cake:

Mostly I just hope it is a really happy day with the man I love and our families. I am excited to get married someday. :)

Day 6: A photo of an animal you would love to keep as a pet

This is a baby bonobo. They are a cousin to the chimpanzee but way more calm. And SO CUTE!!

Day 5: A photo of yourself two years ago

My hair was about 6 inches longer. I still have this shirt and I wear it all the time. I don't have glasses anymore. That was a very smart move on my part. This picture was taking right before I went and chopped 14 inches off.

Day 4: Your favorite photograph of your best friend.

Like everyone else in the world, I am sure, I have multiple best friends. So I will show you them all :)
First LYIL:

Next: MELISSA:

Next: DANA:

In reality though I have lots of really good friends.

Day 3: your idea of the perfect first date

An ideal first date for me would be in the spring, summer or fall, so that it was warm enough to do something outside. I would want to go hiking with a picnic. It wouldn't be a really hard hike so that we could talk and laugh and have fun together. First dates should be all about finding out about who the other person is and what kinds of things they like to do. I must say, my first date with Lyil was pretty great. We went to Bridal Veil and played around up there and then we went back to his place and watched a movie and just relaxed. It was great!

Day 2: A photo of something you ate today.

It just so happens that my mom made my favorite food for dinner tonight. :)

Day 1: A photo of yourself and a description of how your day was.

This picture was from a recent sledding trip. It was epic. As for my day... It was a good day. I slept in, and then when I came upstairs my brother Keith and my nephews Preston and Austin were here. I played with them till it was time to go to work. Then I worked from noon to 5 which felt more like a full 8 hour day. Then I drove home in rush hour traffic. I came home to find that my mom had made my favorite dinner. Spaghetti. Now I am just relaxing while I wait for Lyil's band practice to be done.

I'll give this a try.

Ok so I have seen friends doing this on their blogs and on facebook. So I think I will try it. BUT I might not do just one a day. I don't blog every day as we all know, and sometimes (like tonight) I have more of a desire to blog than other times. so we'll see how it goes. Just don't hate me if it never gets finished.
