Preston

My brother Preston is one of my heroes! He has gone through so much in his 22 years of life. He is getting married on June 10th and I couldn't be happier for him!!

Last month The Healthy Utah magazine did an article about him and his heart condition. I found it rather touching!

The article can be found here

Love him!

The Best Day of the Year...

March 1st is a really awesome day. Wanna know why?

Because..

Today was my roommate AMBER'S BIRTHDAY!!! She is the funniest, most wonderful person! I love hanging out with her, she is such a good example to me, and has had so many experiences that have just made her so solid. She is such a wonderful friend and deserves everything in the whole world!!

(Please excuse my entire face and hair)

But that is not the only reason today was the best day ever...

It was also my cousin JAN'S BIRTHDAY!!!

Jan is so awesome. And she is my cousin. And.. I can't say enough about her! She almost went on a mission and then she got married instead! Haha she is so courageous, righteous, and happy. I love her! She is also such a good example to me. I am so lucky to have so many amazing women in my life that make me want to be better!

(Jan is in the middle!)

It was also one of my co-workers birthdays but I don't really know him and I don't have any pictures of him. But happy birthday to him anyways!!

And last, but not least today was JUSTIN BIEBER'S BIRTHDAY!!

He is 17 years old! Only one more year and then my creepiness won't be as creepy!

This boy is so amazing. He entertains me when I am bored with his youtube music videos. He makes me feel pretty. Haha just kidding. He makes me feel like I'm his "Favorite Girl" or like he is "stuck in the moment with you (me)" or sometimes I just want to be his "Baby" or "eenie meenie" lover. Hahaha I have Bieber fever, I fought it for so long. I didn't want to think he was awesome. But I do. I still don't own any of his music, but I am definitely a fan. And I haven't even seen his movie! I just watched this video one day and decided he was cute. And he worked hard to get where he is at! He is just a good person is what I am getting at.

Anyways now I am going to post links to some youtube videos that I find hilarious:

You should really watch all of them! The longest one is only like 3 minutes.

Last but not least


TODAY WAS NATIONAL PEANUT BUTTER LOVERS DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mom's like you choose Jif. 

Valentines Day

Okay I love love, and I love so many people and I have so much love in my life but I don't like Valentines day! I think love should be celebrated everyday! Plus it makes me jiggle. You know what I mean.

Anyways enough of that. So Jenny, my brother's fiancee, and her roommates had a Valentines Day party and it was so fun! It even included a kissing booth :)

(He dressed up as cupid!)

(Shorts and wings, that is all folks)

(Twas crowded!)

(His voice was like chocolate running down my body)

(Kissin booth!!)

(okay!)

In other news, I need to get out of my town. And I need to transfer schools. It's just not working for me!!

Hope you all had a lovely valentines day!

...

I would just like to say that I had a fabulous weekend!! It's always fun to catch up with family and friends.

Also, I went to Gnomeo & Juliet.. and it was so funny I had like 3 giggle attacks. So great. Anyways that is all. Hope you had a great weekend as well!


(This was my first date with Cory, haha)

Hi it's me, Hayley

I would just like to take a moment and share some pictures from when I met the Pioneer Woman. I finished her book today and I LOVED it. I laughed out loud (lol'd, rofl) at so many things she said in it! She is a funny woman. Anyways here are some pictures!

Okay so worshipping idols is unrighteous but that's not what this is, okay? I just really admire her! She gets it done! And by it I mean everything. She literally is so on top of life! I love it.

My cousin Ryan got married the day after we met Ree Drummond-The Pioneer Woman. He is 35. Mindy, his new wife is 31. They both run triathlons, marathons.. basically they are both super hot and fit. They are also both very successful in their careers, Ryan as a businessman and Mindy as an accountant! They've got it made! I am so so happy they found each other. The weather was beautiful on their wedding day and it was so fun to gather together and celebrate!

(My newly engaged brother!)

(There are 2 newly wed couples in this picture haha.)

(Nathan)

(I LOVE this picture, they are so good looking!)

(The luncheon. Yes I had 2 pieces of that cake, shamelessly it gave me a total carb face)

(MY HAIR IS SO SHORT!)

(Beautiful cake!)

So I find blogging so relaxing. I really do enjoy it. I came to that conclusion and then I realized that it doesn't matter if people comment, as long as I am benefiting from putting time into it! So now I just feel better about it. Plus I like writing about my life on here and no fb. Although I do post boatloads of pictures on face book. But it's fine.

This is my mom in a prom dress HAHA. I actually think she looks pretty daaang good.

I get to go home this weekend!! I do go home quite a bit but I just love my lil' ol' Idaho!!

Have a fabulous weekend, my little monsters. (Jk Lady Gaga)

I met the Pioneer Woman today.

And I could literally die happy! She was awesome. And so personable! I loved it. I got my book signed!!! I am still working on writing longer sentences.

Anyways if you haven't ever been to her website you must go RIGHT NOW and look through everything on her website for several hours. Waste as much time as you can, even though i don't consider it "wasting' time. I think it is time well spent! She has so many yummy recipes, and she is so funny.

My cousin Ryan is getting married tomorrow and I am so excited to see all my family together! Have a happy weekend!

Blogger's block and some exciting news

I feel like I haven't blogged for a while. I am kind of sick of blogging. I almost deleted my blog. But I am just going through a phase is all. I just have to make time to blog, right? And maybe look into learning how to write longer sentences that flow, and have nice structure.

In my seventh grade english class we learned how to diagram sentences, in depth. I had that diagramming down pat. But do I use it now? No! Who cares? That is not something I would include in my resume. Mrs. Bond was crazy and drank diluted wheatgrass everyday, all day. Which didn't help her at all because fresh wheatgrass loses its nutrients twenty minutes after it's juiced. So it was all for nothing Mrs. Bond!!

The past couple of weekends have been wonderful! I'll have to write about them in the next few days. My best friend Joy visited me this weekend and we had such a fun time! I am so grateful for her and for all my friends! What a treasure it is to have good friends you can count on and tell your secrets to!

I GET TO MEET THE PIONEER WOMAN THIS THURSDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so friggin' excited. I never even say friggin because I think friggin is a pretty friggin juvenile word.

One last thing.. I didn't post this on my facebook because I think they want to tell most people themselves, but I don't have very many readers so I figure it's okay to say.. MY BROTHER GOT ENGAGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On Friday!!! I am so so so so so EXCITED!!  (If I wasn't supposed to put this on here, I'm sorry!)

(Jenny's birthday)

(So cute!)

I love the woman he found to spend forever with! I am so excited they are getting married in the temple and get to be with each other for time and all eternity (which means I get another sister! YAY!!!). They are so fun to be around because they truly are best friends and care for each other so much. June 11th is the big day and I can't wait!

I have been very baby hungry lately. So maybe they can help me out with that.. ;) Jk just looking/holding other peoples babies will do for the next 10 years.

Have a nice week, okay?

Ps- Ever seen Billy Madison? I think t his part is SO FUNNY I DIE LAUGHING. Plus I want to say those exact words, sometimes. But most of the time I am very tolerant.

So funny.
