I've been getting a lot of questions about my apparel
specifically ...
pajamas.
Now, winter is a tricky season to dress for
especially if your apartment is SUPER COLD
like mine.
so it's all about layering... right!?
right.
Here is the latest combo I'm diggin'
Night gown: Victoria's Secret
Sweat pants: UVU bookstore
Sweat shirt: Vintage... My mom's from the 90's. yep.
Make sure you tuck in the sweat pants into some long socks.
Enjoy!
Don't be afraid to mix & match different patterns.
Here is a jam for your Tuesday night.
And in case you didn't catch my sense of humor.
All of the above was a joke.

I wish someone would sing this to me as I fall asleep...
Here is to a new day.

"Perfection doesn't come in this life, but the next. Don't demand things that are unreasonable but demand improvement. As you let the Lord help you through that, He will make the difference."
I guess this has been on my mind a lot this week... This time of life is sooo... interesting. Change is a constant companion. And the bad guys (and girls) are not so easily identified. In fact, most appear to be your friends. This time period of being in college is a great trial run for the real world. Bad situations and mean people will always be in your life in one form or another... but if there is one thing that I've learned it is to not give the best parts of yourself away and dwell on bitterness. Being affected and playing the victim will never hurt them or make your life better. It will only ruin YOU. People will act how they want to, hurt who they want to, and from my experience.... appear innocent in many other people's eyes. However, there are always people who love you, a God that knows who you are, and you're special in your own way. Don't let these things ruin you. Too many amazing things are ahead and waiting to happen. Just love. And neverever forget who you are & your potential. Sooo i guess this has been on my mind a lot this week.
Last weekend I went to Nashville for the ASACC conference for Senate.
It was so amazing, I want to go back!
Here is little glimpse of what happened there:
We left Utah on Thursday night
Dani & I worked out.
Friday:
We woke up and planted trees!
It was pretty great weather while we were there
but Friday morning was SUPER chilly.
I had a t-shirt, jacket, sweatshirt, and another shirt on.
Brrr...
Then the conference begun and we listened to a few speakers
And at night Senate got together and watched a movie... awww.
We also learned how to line dance.
AND we ate very well.
I love southern food.
This is Broadway street. Where all the magic happens.
Music everywhere, food, dancing, and more.
I LOVVEEDD it.
So Saturday we were in lectures all day
so at night we got to play!
We ate at this awesome place called BB King's.
There was a live band, yummy food, and dancing.
Then I went to the Wild Horse Saloon and went line dancing!
That place was sooo cool.
It's exactly what I thought a saloon would be like.
People everywhere at tables with their beers.
People on the balcony watching the dance floor.
The live band was super good.
We were right up front.
After the Wild Horse extravaganza we got ice cream at Mike's
they make their ice cream homemade.
It's as amazing as it looks/sounds.
Their red velvet ice cream had chunks of cake and icing in it.
(and that lovely X on my hand is from the Wild Horse because I am under 21... it was a sad moment for me. Everyone looks at you weird after that. I felt branded as a child. haha)
These are our friends we made at ASACC from Wisconsin.
And their accents are funny!
Sunday:
It was the last day of the conference so we heard a few speeches and it wrapped up.
We had the whole day to go see some sites.
We went to the Parthenon, of course. This was #1 on my list!
It was sooooo cool.
Academic Senate 2011-2012
Then we ate at this place called Big River
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
I had chicken fried chicken with mashed potatoes
yep.
And of course we had a photo shoot.In front of the Big River.
Later that night we walked around the city.
The sun sets at 4:30pm which was weird.
We walked up the bridge over looking the city/ Cumberland river
It was beautiful.
We flew home monday at 7am.
It was a looong day!
I love to travel and see new places.
I fall in love with every place I visit, I can't help it!
Ok, so I'm on a bit of a music kick. What else is new right? One good thing to come out of the Twilight series is the soundtrack. And for the record I'm not a twi-hard fan, but this just makes my heart melt.
And it's all too familiar And it happens all the time. All the cards begin to stack up, Twisting heartache into fine Little pieces that avoid an awful crime, But it's you I can't deny.
We swing and we sway As this tiny voice in My head starts to sing "You're safe, child, you are safe."
