on the twelfth day of christmas{finally}

im finally putting it up. took me long enough. this christmas was wonderful. i loved the fact that it was on a sunday. gave me the chance to reflect on what christmas is really about not the gifts or the food. but the birth of a king. that is what we are really celebrating. so we should be thankful for the years that christmas falls on a sunday. but...the gifts were good as well. it was our first christmas together. an will not be our last. he is good to me. great to m actually. Yay to our first christmas.

on the eleventh day of christmas

i fell in love all over again. and this time the feeling is here to stay. i am ready for the next chapter of my life with him. whatever that may be. but i know this much. never again will we be apart. i can promise you that.

cheers.
merry christmas.

on the tenth day of christmas

i forgot to blog. once again.
but still its okay.
though.
i can blame my forgetfulness.
on one person.
him.
he has me quite busy lately.
not that im complaining.
i would rather be with him.
then with my computer.
blogging.

the tenth day of christmas has been the best day of christmas so far. i spent most of the day raking leaves with my puppy dax. {raking leaves. on christmas}. then went out christmas shopping with haley. boy did i miss this lovely lady. she is one of my greatest friends. she always makes me laugh no matter what. and i can completely be myself around her. she is a friend that you never wanna give up. so. i'll be keeping her close. 

now on to him. he is great. and he showed me a great night. we went up to temple square with: his brother and his lady. his sister and her man and two wonderful girls. and last but most certainly not least his mother and father.  we went to a splendid pizza place up in salt lake before heading to the lights. it really hit the spot. and the lights. well of course they were gorgeous. but the company that i was in made them that much better. he held my hand and kept me warm. we laughed and smiled and joked around. it made the night one i wont be forgetting. he is such a handsome respectful man. im not sure how i managed to catch his eye. but i hope every girl catches the eye of a guy like him. a gentleman straight to his core.

i am a very lucky girl. and things between us are growing in a direction that could be called forever. but we will have to see about that. taking it slow is still our main goal. as hard as that may be. i can say is we are doing our best. this night was wonderful to say the least. something i will always remember. how could i possibly forget a lovely evening with him.

cheers.

merry christmas.

on the ninth day of christmas

i forgot to blog. but thats okay.
the festivities of this season are confusing me.
maybe thats because its not even christmas.
weather wise that is.
its getting ridiculous.
and im not sure how we pissed mother nature off so badly.
but we did.
thats for sure.

but of this ninth day of christmas.
i played games with his family.
it was a blast.
i got to know them a little better.
and i think they got to know me.
i would say a success.

cheers.
merry {sunny}christmas.

on the eighth day of christmas

we had an ugly sweater party.
it was awesome.
in my opinion.
it was quite a success.
just dance two.
food.
and white elephant.
it was grand.
I do love my friends.

on the seventh day of christmas

i missed blogging. please forgive me. but it was hectic. we had a open house. and boy was our house open. we had lots of people come through. and lots of food being eaten. it was great. lots of good company. and laughs. i am a very lucky girl to have so many good people around me.

on the third day of christmas

i helped my mom get ready for her christmas open house. 

i have learned i am not much of a decorator.

but i tried. so that should count for something i think.

these kinds of things you leave up to my sister. 

and the eating of the party food.

you leave up to me. 

then we all can be happy.

but regardless.

of my not so pretty decorating. 

the night will be splendid. 

and thats all that matters.

cheers.

merry christmas.

my apologies.

i know.

i have a problem.

and i cant just let my blog be.

forgive me for the change again.

this is festive.

and it will stay till the end of the christmas holiday.

you have my word.

cheers.

 

merry christmas.

on the second day of christmas

i strengthened two relationships.

well today i ran errands with the mother. it was great. we went to three different place to look for christmas greenery to put up on a shelf in our house. but after not finding one she liked that she could get with a coupon to make it cheep. she went back to the first place we looked and bought that one. so. yes. she did pull a lois spinder. and yes. it took us hours longer than it needed too. but thats okay. cause it was fun just hanging out with her. after we finally purchased what we needed. we headed over to costco. costco is awesome. i give it two thumbs up. if i was ever locked in a store. i would choose that one. and he works there. so it makes it even better. all in all today with my mom was a very good day. things are going great between us and i couldnt be happier about it. she is an awesome mother and a great friend. i love her a lot. and couldnt ask for better.

now onto the best friend.

she is awesome. gorgeous. funny. smart. charming and any other word that is nice. she is the friend that i have had the longest. since my birthing day that is. her name is rachel elise munoa. and she is the greatest. well we went to the mall to find roommate gifts. it was a success. we havent been the closest the last couple years but we are getting there again. so it was great to just talk and talk and talk like girls do. about boys school family life clothes. all the above. it was so good. i had missed her a lot. im excited to get close with her again. its something i am looking forward too. we have plans to hang out again. it will be great. i finally have a sister back.

cheers.
merry christmas.

once again

i have changed up my blog.
i can explain.
i was(well am).
sitting in the library and my friend needed help setting up her blog.
so as i was helping her.
and realized that i was already bored of all the colors that were going on in mine.
so naturally.
i changed it.
again.
i hope you dont mind.
and i hope i dont get sick of this one too quickly either.
or my blog might be changed again.
hope ya like it.
cause as of now.
i quite enjoy it.

the twelve days of Christmas.

well. 13 days till christmas people. i hope everybody is as excited as i am. cause its gonna be an awesome holiday season. with the smells. the lights. the food. the people. the music. the weather. everything in this month brings out the joy and happiness in almost everybody around. this is the holiday for joy. for reflection. for family. for friends. for thanks. for snowball fights and for snowmen. and for holding hands and kissing while it snows down on you. not that that will be happening with me. but for all those lovers out there. cheers. you are very lucky this season. dont take it for granted.

i have decided that these next twelve days deserve a little bit of special treatment. so i will be doing something special every day until the night of Christmas. something to get me in the mood of Christmas. and hopefully it does me good. 

wish me luck.

cheers. 

and a Merry Christmas to all.

food for thought.

people cry, not because 

they're weak.

its because they've been

strong for too long.

when something bad happens

you have three choices: you

can either let it define you

let it destroy you. or you

can let it strengthen you.

well.

im home now.
for the week.
i have seen him.
and he has seen me.
we have hung out.
and talked a lot.
he held my hand.
and he held me.
its been amazing to be around him.
and also so ridiculously hard.
im taking a break from dating.
he is still dating.
so obviously.
we are in different places.
i never thought it would hurt me so bad.
to know that he is flirting.
and whatever else goes with it.
with other girls.
at the same time as me.
i may be being dramatic.
but never the less.
the pain is still there.
things are complicated.
and i thought i was stronger.
and that i could handle all of this.
but i cant.

we are friends.

and now i'll be crying myself to sleep.
for awhile.

word to the wise.

dont ever read an ex.boyfriends text that you still care about.

and boys:

dont ever let her read your texts.
especially when you have been going on dates.
with her good friends older sister.

life is good life is great life is wonderful. through all the bad and sad things going on right now. i have never been happier. this gospel is the best thing thats ever happened to me.

dont worry

i woke up at eight this morning to watch harry potter. i started with the first one and am now on the fourth one. no big deal. my life has been wasted. but its okay. cause i love harry potter. its the best for sure. well. see ya.

a little Seuss.

i saw this quote today. and it made me smile. this life is crazy. and we have the choice to be whatever and whoever we want. might as well be ourselves. 

its the most fun.
