21

BIG 21 this year.... this means big celebrations went on, so we will start from the end of my 21st birthday and go backwards. My mom and dad got my tickets to go see my sister Ansley and her husband and baby Cohen....so excited!!!! We went and got icees at Common Sense...

Getting to drink from the birthday cup.....My aunt Mary Ann has this cup that only people can use in there birthday month and I would always try to use it whenever I would come and see them....so not in the month of June....so I was finally allowed this privilege, hence the two pictures!

No birthday is complete without singing two verses of Happy Birthday....many more birthdays to you..... and a great cake with more candles on the cake than you wished for....what did I wish for?

Prepping the cake for all the candles....

I woke up and my dad had made me breakfast and my mom let me open my presents, and I got a minky quilt that I get to make, shorts a tank top and a skirt from Christopher and Banks, and lotion body wash and lip gloss from Bath and Boday. We then drove to Utah on Saturday morning and went and saw the Wiseman's, my mom and I then went to visit my uncle Jon and take him shopping and spend the day with him. We had a good time and spent time shopping for longer than should be mentioned....yeah. We then came back to the Wiseman's for a bridal shower for my cousin Alesha and had cake and treats and just visited for the rest of the night.....I couldn't ask for a better birthday.

Before I even had my birthday we celebrated....me and my birthday twin Amanda.....had a eve before our birthday party with our college friends that involved applebees, virgin margaritas, and more virgin margaritas....

Don't worry it is virgin....

Me and my bday twin Amandazzle....love her.....just drinking in the park and enjoying a lovely night in Rexburg.

Starvalley....Afton....New Home???

I went home with my roommate to Afton, Wyoming....straight up country. The closest Wal-mart is in Idaho Falls which is about 2 and 1/2 hours away. I was taken on the grand tour and by the end of my 3 day stay I could pretty much make my way around town without directions from Savannah. Most of you know that I want to be a teacher and start working in Wyoming after I graduate because they are the highest paid teachers so I was scouting out the area to see if I could survive in this town in Starvalley. A couple of requirement if you come to Afton, Wyoming:
1. See a lady with the most awesome mullet ever
2. Almost attend a gun show

3. Enjoy the beautiful scenery....serious it was so beautiful at cottonwood lake

4. Pose on a stump with awesome friends....okay so just enjoy the great county with great friends.

5. Act ridiculous because there is not many people that will see you....when the population is that low....

6. Make sure to spend as much time with the state flower....dandelion....as possible....
(not really the state flower but Afton is covered in them!)

7. Get your picture by the largest arch of elk horns in the world...I am pretty sure it might be the only one .... you never know?

Afton...this picture was actually taken for you!

Snow Leopard Modeling

My friend Taylor is working on becoming better at portraits of people so I volunteered myself as a top model.....Here are some of my favorites. Thanks Taylor for doing such a great job!

Smoky Shodowblast and Shineblast Lip Gloss

I have become a bzz agent....basically I receive products and try them and then tell all my friends about them and what I like about them. This is my product that I received and I actually love it a lot....because it is covergirl. It is called the Smoky Shadowblast...it is basically roll on eyeshadow which works great for me because I don't really like messing with all the brushes and it tells you exactly how to put it on. Before they sent me this I never used to wear eye shadow.... check out the great colors above. They also sent me some Shineblast Lip Gloss that works amazingly well too and is not sticky for glossy lip gloss....if you know what I mean. Let me know what you think about these products by posting comments or if you have tried them let me know. Thanks for helping me out!

Roommies Spring 2010

Okay so they arn't my roommies but they are my best friends!

Sarah, Savannah, and Me

It has been an exciting semester so far this summer and I am loving having only 2 roommates. Our apartment is drama free besides my roommate who is getting married and freaks out occasionally....but really who can blame her. We talked my friend Taylor into taking our roommie picture on a beautiful Sunday...just thought I would share.

Family Vacation 2010

This year our Family Vacation took place in the midwest. On May 4 I rode the shuttle to Salt Lake after school and took a plane early in the morning to Omaha where I was picked up and driven to Nauvoo....a full 24 hours of travel later we arrived in Nauvoo for an amazing family vacation...and a much needed break from school. Above is a picture with me and the boys...I love Kelan and Beckham.

We went to some gardens in Omaha on the last day we were there. So beautiful and I had so much fun hanging out with Kelan.

In Nauvoo....looking like pioneers!

Brooksie Bob loved wearing Grandpa's glasses.

I love Coco Bean!

A random group but me, Kelan, Spencer, and Brooksie Bob in front of Carthiage Jail.

Inside Carthiage Jail, the room where Joseph was killed.

The bullet hole through the door and the window where Joseph Smith fell out. It was such a great testimony builder for me to be there. I had just finished the Book of Mormon in two weeks and I have such a great appreciation for Joseph and dedicating his life to the Lord and ending up dying for this gospel. Praise to the Man!

My beautiful Sister and Coco Bean.

Cohen is so crazy and wild....just so busy all the time! I love his personality.

This is my temple and I was so excited that I got to go inside this time and do baptisms. I will definitely be returning...soon!

Ansley and I in our hotel. We ended up sharing the couch bed because of the snoring problem we seem to be having in one of our rooms, we won't name names....you know who you are.

Oh I just love my Kelly Belly!

Everytime I was taking a picture of Kelan, he would say "cheeeeeeessssee"

My beautiful Nauvoo temple.....

Grandpa taught Kelan to say "Scenic Idaho, Famous Pototoes" because that is what it says on the Idaho licence plates, he was just so cute when he said it I had to record it.
