Cool Happenings

// My sissy's birthday was yesterday. She turned eighteen and we took her to the La Dolce Vida, which is an absolutely fabulous, legit (as in like, immigrants from Italy) Italian restaurant off Provo Center Street. Yumminess, so much yumminess. Their gnocchi is to die for.

// I gave way to vanity and couldn't resist posting a selfie. Sue me, but I just really liked the way my pony tail turned out and I never succeed at doing my hair so I had to share.

// AHH! I am getting my eyebrows tinted tomorrow and I'm totally nervous. As long as they don't end up looking like this, I'm totally cool.

(any Seinfeld fans out there? Eh?)

// Halloween is on Friday! I'm dressing up as a Witch. I work at a nursing home/rehab center and so we are doing a costume parade for all the residents, and then they vote on their favorite costume and the winner gets a prize. So I'm looking forward to that fun-ness. 

// I got an interview to the nursing program I applied to! Hip-hip-hooray!!! Now to see if I can manage to woo them enough to accept me... we shall see.

The Best Things

They say that two heads are better than one, and since I have been married I can definitely attest to the truthfulness of that statement.

Love is sweet, and my love is the sweetest guy ever. For instance, this weekend we watched the Sixth Sense with some friends and I had to get up to go to the bathroom, but was way too scared to go inside and go pee by myself (I mean hello there could've been a dead person) so Nathan came with me and stood outside the door and waited for me. That's true love, right there. I am such a lucky girl to be married to this dude, He puts up with so much from me.

One of my personal favorite things about marriage is cuddling, all the time, all the day long. No one can argue how awesome that is.

Another great thing about marriage is you have a sidekick for all of life's adventures. You never have to  worry about who is going to sit by you at church, and you always have a date to everything. So that's cool. Not to mention you have someone to share all your hopes and dreams with, and that same someone is there to help you realize them too.

Overall it's just nice to have someone to lean on, and live life with, and that's really the best thing.

I honestly can't think of anyone else I'd rather share my life with than Nathan. He is da bomb. Love you, huns.

Good Morning

Good morning to you all on this lovely Sabbath day! I have had such a fun-filled October and I seriously wish I was a better photo-documenter so I could remember more things, but I'm super lazy when it comes to picture taking. Also I lack a nice camera. That probably makes me only a sub-par blogger, but whatevs. I will just wow you with my awesome writing skills instead.

I finally made it to one of my little brother's football games. He had a nice ride in an ambulance a few weeks ago because of a concussion and as a result hadn't played in a few weeks, but he finally made it back onto the field! So that was cool to see him play again. Also do you guys like the new sweater I got? I do! Woo.

We threw a birthday party for the old man. He may kill me for revealing this information, but he turned 48 years old. What is crazy is I remember his 30th birthday party. Wow. He's still young though, I mean look at that Mickey Mouse shirt. It takes a true kid at heart to wear that. Also I might mention that isn't the only Mickey Mouse shirt he owns (and wears!). Now you guys know where I got my love of Disneyland from. It's hereditary.

This weekend my friend Ashley and her husband threw a Halloween party at their amazing home. Seriously they have the best view of Utah Lake and basically the whole valley. They dressed their dog up as the grandma from little red riding hood and it was so cute. The party was a blast too. We played Mafia and ate an excessive amount of sugary Halloween themed treats.

In other news, I should be hearing back about whether or not I get an interview for the nursing program any day now. Cross your fingers for me. I am hoping so freakin' hard that I get in! I just want to be a professional so so bad and have a career and make some real money. Some of you can probably relate. In the event I don't get accepted I have just decided that I'm gonna go get a second job and take Nathan and I to Disney World. I mean that in all seriousness, too. So whatever happens I suppose the end result is happy, ya? Ha.

Ramblings

1. Friday night Nathan and I visited the ever famous 180 Tacos. We've heard about it for a while and have been told on numerous occasions to go eat there, so at last we obliged. It was fairly delicious, I had this fried buttermilk chicken taco and YUM. The blend of flavors was incredible. We just may visit there again.

2. Sorry about the lack of any even remotely attractive pictures of myself. I much prefer to post ones such as these.

3. The hubster at the taco shop.

4. My first attempt at Swig (or ya know, Slurp if you hang around American Fork, Utah) sugar cookies. The frosting wasn't quite right but I was very impressed with the actual cookie. If you have ever been to a Swig or Slurp or whatever the heck the kids are calling these soda pop places these days, you will know how addicting these babies are. I don't even know how many calories are in these. I don't even want to know, because I may have eaten like six today. Oops. Recipe - here.

On another, non-pictured note, I have no eyebrows. Actually, let me word that differently. I do have eyebrows, they are just as blonde as blonde can be. I color them in on a daily basis and it is just getting old, guys. So I've been considering dying/tinting them for the longest time and I just can't get the courage up to go do it. Any opinions on this? Anyone have experience in the eyebrow tinting department? I feel like it would save me hours of my life if I just did it.
