Packing for Hawaii!!

Why did I procrastinate packing for Hawaii until the night before I leave. The same night that the Bachelor & Pretty Little Liars starts. I am regretting it... I started a little packing yesterday and this how it ended:

Packing makes me tired. I'm gonna have lots of fun tonight... :)

p.s. Who else is excited for those two shows? I know I AM!!!

Royal Wedding :)

I am STOKED!!! Yes I plan on staying up all night and watching everything on before the wedding, as well as after :) What MG wouldn't love to watch an amazing wedding like this? I just think they are adorable :) 

You can tell they are just so in love :) 

Can you tell I'm a hopeless romantic?? :) 

It reminds me of me and Preston :) William & Kate have been through a lot, but here they are, with their fairy tale :) Once Preston gets home, it'll be the same with us :) 

<3 <3 <3

Now I gotta go grab my mountain dew, discounted easter candy and popcorn and get hyped up for tonight :) 

I LOVE, LOVE!!!!

Happiness in Simplicity

Oh what a busy and boring week its been. My favorite days were the days I was doing anything that reminded me of Preston. Example #1: Going to the Missionary Girlfriend party :) All those girls instantly became friends  :) We went to in-n-out and then
headed over to the mall and then ended with
Tangled :) It was a good night because I got to
talk about Preston non stop :) Talking about him
makes me super super happy :)
Example #2: Sunday. Sundays are the very best day of the week. I will tell you why. On Sundays you get to spend the day with family. You also get to go to church and feel that spiritual high. Most importantly, you don't have time to sit in your room alone and think about your missionary (at least I don't) This past Sunday was amazing. Me and my 3 sisters decided to go on a picnic to one my favorite places. It's this baseball park in American Fork. It's honestly one of my most favorite places in the world. Weird right? There's something so peaceful and I feel such serenity when I'm there. Being there around sunset is the most beautiful sight. Me and Preston played softball there and it's just a park full of memories :) After the park we walked around the Mount Timpanogos Temple. I love being around the temple whenever I can. We also walked around the Amphitheatre in AF. Sometimes you just need to go on a drive and visit those special places :)

At the park

I sent this picture to him :)

These rocks were in the shape of a heart :) I sent him this one too

One more day and we'll be at 5 weeks. As much as I'm waiting for so much to happen, I'm so excited for what's going to be happening in the somewhat near future :) I've learned if I get excited for little things that happen in the near future, it makes me feel better than if I'm constantly just waiting for 2 years to end. I really like the quote that says, 

"Happiness is not found at the end of the road, it is experienced along the way. So take not for granted each moment of your life and you will find a reason to be happy each day"

I'm trying to work on this everyday. <3

The Food Network = Cravings

Whenever i'm feeling down or I just want to watch TV, I watch the Food Network. It is serious therapy for me. I just love it. Because of the food network, I have a list of foods I need to try. 

 #1 Pinkberry

                                            

This is a frozen yogurt place. But they are known to be "tart" instead of tasting like dairy. I've also heard Taylor Swift talk about how it's one of her favorite places. I must try it! 

#2 Spread

There is a restaurant in California called, "Spread". They are known for their peanut butter. The one I am dying to try is number 73, the "White chocolate infused with pretzels peanut butter". Doesn't that just sound amazing? It soooo does.

#3 Panera Bread

I have actually been to this place when I was in Nashville. If you ever get the chance, GO THERE!

Get their Strawberry Poppyseed Salad. It is to die for. If you've ever been to Zupas and gotten their "Nuts About Berries" salad, It's like that, but way better :)

#4 Blue Bell

Blue Bell ice cream. I love this ice cream so much. Once again, you can't this in Utah. Preston introduced me to it when we were in Texas. And can I just say, it's the best mint ice cream I've ever had. It had a million little chocolate pieces in it. Not just a bunch of big pieces. Mmmm :)

#5 Chocolate Covered Pomegranate Seeds

 

I can't make a list of foods without including chocolate. I watched a whole show on the food network about chocolate covered pomegranate seeds. I know what you're probably thinking, "That sounds a little weird.." That's what I thought. But right now i'm highly contemplating making my own at home :)

Last but not least. Just try this:

3 Ingredients: Wheat bread, Nutella and a Banana 

Anything involving Nutella tastes good. Another favorite is dipping banana chips in Nutella. 

Wow i'm really hungry now. 

I'm gonna go make something :) 

I will have more of these food posts to come! 

 

Greys Anatomy.

I seriously love Grey's Anatomy. Period. 

This is the ONE show that sucks me in completely. My mind can be on nothing but mcdreamy. And Yang. And Izzie. And Meredith. And everything. 

I only started the series at Christmas when i got season 1 (I know, i'm SO behind. But i'm making up for lost time) I'm currently on season 3

"Hey, listen. For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something… to be with someone you can’t get out of your head, so that when your lips finally touch you feel it everywhere… a kiss so hot and so deep that you never want to come up for air. You can’t cheat your first kiss. You don’t want to. Trust me. When you find that right person for a first kiss, it’s everything."

-Alex Karev- Grey’s Anatomy Episode 7 Season 2 “Something to talk about”

“Okay, here it is, your choice… it’s simple, her or me, and I’m sure she is really great. But, I love you, in a really, really big pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me.” - Meredith Grey

“But no matter how high the stakes, sooner or later, you’re just going to have to go with your gut, and, maybe just maybe, that’ll take you right where you were meant to be in the first place.”

—	Grey’s Anatomy, Season 7 Episode 14

This show just makes my heart stop. I could watch this show for hours. And hours. Seriously.

So, what has happened so far in season 3? I couldn't tell you much because of the fact that i just started it tonight. No. Izzie has not died yet (thank goodness) but Denny has :( I about died in that episode. Obviously i'm a big fan of Izzie. But i'm the biggest fan of.... (drum roll)....

                                                       Mcdreamy!!!

One man should not be allowed to look THIS good. I mean, seriously. "It's a beautiful day to save lives"

The End.
