There really is not mountain high enough...

This is really what George and I do in our spare time...

long overdue

Oh gosh...it's been so long since i've written a blog...so I figure I should do that now before I just don't. I have quite a bit on my mind anyway...so this is just going to be one of those pointless rambling blogs...so I wont feel bad if you don't read it.

Thought #1:

Tonight was our last softball game of the season. I was a complete idiot. I missed pretty much every ball that flew at me... which happened quite frequently tonight. I also tried catching a fly ball with my bare right hand. WTF! My palm is bruised and I think I might have even broken something. But it's not effecting my typing because I chicken pluck... in case you were wondering...

So our season ended with not a single win. Go Lakeside Softball team!

Thought #2:

I have the most amazing husband ever! So I am going to get on my soap box for a minute to tell how great he really is. Man every morning, I wake up before George to get ready. By the time he wakes up, I am in the middle of getting ready....And you know for many of us, the first thing we need to do when we get up is..you know...Use the john. Well I don't let George interupt me getting ready so he goes all the way upstairs to use the bathroom. How rude am I!? I know...

He also sleeps on the bad side of the bed (Our bed is awful) so that I can sleep better...

George works ALL the time. He is the hardest worker I know. He has a full time job at a marketing firm then comes home at 5 and works on freelance stuff just so we can buy a house next spring...

He is just so great...I could go on forever about even just the little things he does that just makes him my favorite person but I wont...

Thought #3:

On Saturday George and I got to take "Post-Wedding pictures" at least that is what I am calling them. My great friend Kaesie Slinger is starting her own photography company called

humble-muffin photography

Cute name huh!?

Anyways, she was amazing!

Our pictures turned out so pretty so I had to share them on here!!

100 days of excellence.

Monday was mine and Georges 100th day of being married! I promise i'm not lame and counting...I just have a counter on my facebook... These past 100 days have been awesome. George is probably the most wonderful person I could ever imagine. I'm not going to lie though, we have had some rough times so far. Especially this weekend...I think there was a point he really did not like me...but it was because I was being a brat...Speaking of this weekend...our trip to L.A. was not at all what we were hoping for... it was great to see all my cousins though. I love them all so much...they are just...great! There lives make me feel really lame and boring though. Every night we were there, there were parties until wee hours of the morning...of course I could not stay up for any of them seeing i'm used to hitting the sack by 10. Being in LA just made me realize how simple my life is. But i'm not sure if I would want it any other way. : ) I think George and I make life fun and exciting just by being us...

Sigh... Life. Yesterday was also my first day of Senior Year. I cannot believe I'm almost graduated from college... NEVER in my life have I thought I would make it this f

ar. On the contrary...I am extremely proud of myself for sticking with it. Lets just hope it's worth it in this economy...

Anyways, here is another video of my baby cousin Lexi Jade. She is so cute...when you ask her what her name is, she says "Sexi" haha...

21 is the luckiest number

Man, So I am going to be 21 in 2 hours... holy cow time flies. I can't say I'm not excited though. Someone told me today that I am stepping into the best years of my life. I believe that's true. I am looking forward to being 21. I will be graduating college... hopefully buying first home. Plus, I have a perfect husband to share these coming times with. I am optimistic.

This past week has been really tough though...I'm not going to lie. One of my best friend mother just passed away from her long time battle from cancer.

Life is so precious. How can anyone spend a life full of regrets? How can we not forgive sometimes. Sigh, I don't live life enough. I am going to try to make this next year of my life really count. Maybe it's just me having this overwhelming feeling of optimism... but I really want to do something great.

Anyways, George and I are going to start video blogging on here now...

BRYCE CANYON!

So this weekend I had an epic adventure! I went to Bryce Canyon! It was amazing. I don't know how anyone can go somewhere like that and not believe in God. It was spectacular that only he could make. This trip was amazing for so many reasons! One, I got to spend it with the two coolest people I know!(Megan and George) but I also had a great story worthy experience. So Megan, George and I spent all of Friday going on a 6 mile hike. It started off to be a beautiful day...Until we were smack dab in the middle of the canyon...and these clouds of death roll in. We were like...Oooo shnikeys! We needed to find shelter in quick! As soon as it started raining, we turned the corner and there was a big tunnel! We couldn't believe it! God must have really been looking out for us. While we were in the tunnel a huge storm went by! It was thundering and lightning and raining like crazy! We were nice in dry in our tunnel! So after the rain calmed down a bit, we decided we should keep pressing forward on our adventure. We scoped out the next part of trail we could see and found a little nook we could aim for. We looked at eachother and said "Lets run to that next nook" so we run out of the tunnel.....without really thinking... rain + dirt = mud. We slid EVERYWHERE! So instead of booking it to the nook...we kind of cautiously slid there. Eventually we made it. Once we got there we kinda hung out for a bit...After a while this young couple joined us! They were Romans! Or as I like to call them "Trojans"! (it makes the story sound more epic) We talked to them for a while...and then we decided to press onward again. Eventually it stopped raining but their was still mud EVERYWHERE! To make matters worse, the trail we were on was actually a horse trail so...there was horse...poo....mud...everywhere...it was pretty nasty. But we made it back in one piece. I guess this story wasn't as epic as it seemed at the time but it was still amazing! I guess the moral of the story would be... check weather signs before going on a 6 mile horse trail...and trust it God! He will always be your shelter in tough storms. :)

Here are some pictures of some amazing people and a kind of lame but mildly entertaining video!
