Happy Sunday

I was feeling a bit pink today.

Empowering the girly-ness in myself.

Here's why...

As you know-

This weekend has been all about me.

Graduation. Graduation. Graduation.

 

Once all the senior girls in my ward graduate, the women of the relief society inducts the newly graduated girls into the relief society program.

 This is where you would find all the women (including my mom) in the ward during 3rd hour of church,

Well, if your like me and love spending time with older, more mature, grown up, woman, then this is the place to be.

Not that young women's is boring or anything, I just prefer a more adult atmosphere.

I dont know

Just my opinion.

So today they gave all 3 girls a very warm welcome and had each of our Mom's say a few words about us. 

Aw.

So sweet.

*thanks for the shout-out Momma Cram*

So yes, that's the story.

All that to say today was a girly day.

And I hope you can now understand my obsession with pink.

And you are more than welcome to continue to drool over my insane Michael Kors handbag Momma Cram suprised me with for graduation.

Go on...

Drool away.

2 Million Minutes

2 million minutes.

That's how long it took.

Four years.

Gone.

In a flash.

A blink of an eye.

a heartbeat.

Can't believe it's over.

It's bittersweet, really.

The good times and the bad.

All the drama.

Is the past, now.

No one really cares about it anymore.

It's all such a blur.

To me.

And to tell you the truth.

I could care less.

And I'm 100% sure I don't stand alone on that one. 

 To many,

High school can at times seem like the center of ones universe.

A kingdom, perhaps.

To others, a worshiping ground.

But as for me.

High school was,

A hell hole.

2 million minutes

 That's all it took.

Done.

They say its the "Best 4 Years of Your Life"

I beg to differ.

They're wrong.

Cause my "Best 4 Years of My Life" will begin here shortly.

And my 2 million minute countdown will begin.

And I could not be more exited.

It may seem like a lot of time.

But it goes by in a blink of an eye.

So here's some advice:

Don't blink.

Home is where the heart is.

And that place is Tennessee.

Let's Party.

Let the Party Begin.

{That's all I have to say about that}

*snap* 

 Momma Cram worked her magic and somehow pulled off this incredible southern backyard graduation party for April and I!

Let me tell you. 

This woman could be/should be a wedding/event planner! 

She has the special touch! 

And she doesn't even sweat it.

I don't understand.

I'm pretty positive that I have the most gorgeous and fun girls as best friends than anyone else on this planet!

I'm going to miss them.

*cue tears*

Love them all.

So much.

wow. 

Thank you for such an amazing party, Mom.
I love you! 
Muah!

Words can't describe.

Get me there.

Pronto.

Happy Day!

Mom.

It's been real. 
[but ill get to that in a second!]

Today was a great day.

Wanna know why?

Well, for starters I got to speak in church today! 

{on Mother's Day}

{{and you know how that goes}}

{{{stressful}}}

Church was awesome.

Got my senior quilt that the Relief Society made for me!

And let me toot my own horn over here for just a sec.

My quilt- is the bomb dot com.

...and if your wondering why I only have an "S" and not a monogram, it's because I don't have a middle name.

So lame.

Trust me.

I know.

Dang family traditions...

After church we came home! 

Ate some food.

AND THEN GUESS WHAT WE DID NEXT?!

Drumroll please...

We got on Skype...

and...

We talked to Shmorgs! 

Yippee!

We can only talked to him 2 times a year. Christmas and Mother's Day!

Oh, how I miss that boy.

He is serving a full time mission in Santiago, Chili for 2 years for my Church.

I continue to get more and more impressed with my brother each and every day.

Those of you who know my brother know that he is quite the catch, but this is no surprise to me.

It's his ability to teach the gospel in such a way that no other 20 year old boy could ever do.

Everyday his testimony continues to grows stronger and stronger, and his love for the Lord becomes deeper and deeper as he continues teaching and baptizing the people of Santiago. 

I am so proud to call him my brother. 

{I would just like to point out Paige's face that I snapped a picture of in the reflection of the computer. haha!!}

It was so nice to be able to talk for a while and catch up on life. 

So much has happened since Christmas so we were all talking a mile-a-minute!

Morgan's best friend Nolan came over and so did Mckenna.

 It was so fun to have everyone together, chit-chatting about heaven know's what!

7 more months till we talk to you again, Shmorgs.

Bye bye for now.

So this one's for Mom...

Your amazing in everything you do.

You have taught me everything I know.

Besides mastering the art of making bomb ice water and learning how to cut and toss a mean caesar salad. I need to work on that.

Your such a role model for me. I hope I turn out half as great as you!

I love you so so much! 

Happy Mother's Day to the best Mom on this Earth! 

How did I get so dang lucky when Heavenly Father was choosing a Mom for me!

I don't know, but I sure am lucky!

xoxo

love this.

Holy Carrie

Holy. Carrie. 

Wow.

Never knew I could be more obsessed with one single album.

You did it again, Miss Carrie.

Congratulations. Now my whole day consists of listen to this dang thing on repeat!

But lets be honest, we all knew it was going to happen.

I just didn't think it would be THIS good.

My favorites? 

#2- Blown Away 

My prediction? This will reach number 1 on the charts in a week. 

This song is better than "Good Girl" for sure.

#3- Two Black Cadillacs

So, this song just makes me laugh. But it shouldn't. 

It's very much a slap-in-the-face kind of song. 

Loves.

#13- Wine After Whiskey

Yep.

This is the song that I sing at the top of my lungs when I'm rocking out by myself in my car.

It's her power song off the record. Hands down.

I just love the message this song gives off.

So all that to say one thing.

Your perfect.

Your voice. Your composure. Your legs. Your hair. Your values.

Perfect.

I want to be you.

No big deal.
