hot man thursday.

good night.

Who said studying in a library was better? I've been at the library for 4 hours studying and I've come to the conclusion that libraries make me fall asleep.

you pull me closer to love.

it's great to be eight!

Happy 8th birthday Lexi!! I can't believe you are eight already. I remember the night you were born like it was yesterday! I was so excited for to be born, I had always wanted a little sister to take care of and dress in cute clothes. :) You have been such a blessing in my life and I can't imagine life without you! There is never a dull or boring moment when you are around, you are such a fun and crazy girl! Every single word that comes out of your mouth makes me laugh!

Here are some of my favorite sassy Lexi lines:
-Mom: "I wish I had a maid back home" Lexi: "you ARE the maid at home!"
-"hey Britney, remember that one time you died? and the ambulance had to take you to the hospital and they plugged you into a needle so you could be alive again? that was AWE-SOME"
-"nothing beats a bucket of ducks."
-"heyy shaawty."
- Britney- "Lexi, why did you bite me?!" Lexi- "because I cant reach Taylor!"
-"I need to find a way to earn more dollars so I can buy the things I need"
-"no I WONT get in trouble because I NEVER get in trouble!!"
-while in california: "I wonder what the weather is like back in America.."
for more where that came from visit the Lexi the great facebook page :) http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=143617525651461

I LOVE you and miss you like crazy Lexers! I hope you have a very fun birthday and I can't wait to come home and celebrate with you in a few weeks!

amy elizabeth mathews.

I am in love with this girl and she is the classiest girl I know. I just realized today that I haven't even known her for 2 months yet but it feels like forever. She makes my days in Idaho more enjoyable and she pretty fantastic at cutting bangs. Oh, did I mention that it's her 21st birthday today? To celebrate we might make a 12 course meal, make a tart, eat pizza or drink mocktails. You never know, anything is possible when you're 21.

Happy Birthday Carly! I can't believe you are 16! I remember holding you in the hospital. Wow that went fast! I think the first memory I have with you is always putting on shows for everybody during birthday parties and family get togethers. When our parents called up to us that it was time to leave I remember running and hiding in our bedrooms and closets. I LOVE going camping with you every year too. It's so fun and I have so many memories from it. Another thing I remember is building forts in Grandpa and Grandma's backyard in the summer. Also, playing in the tree and pretending it was our "house" and Britney and Megan sending us to find impossible things so they could get rid of us! We were so sad when that tree was cut down. I know theres a TON more I could write. You are such a great cousin and I love you, Car! Happy sweet sixteen!!

Since we use to listen to Hilary Duff a lot, here ya go :)

I love the northwest.

I miss...
the pitter patter of rain against my window sill.
the fresh smell of the droplets falling from the sky.
the ocean, it's giant waves crashing against the shore.
the smell of the ocean, holding so many memories.
the great evergreens and mountains surrounding me.
seeing a Starbucks on every corner.
riding the amtrak through downtown Tacoma.
the hustle of the city.
Mount Rainier in the sunset.
the friends that you could never be bored around.
my family that's always there for me.

It wasn't until I lost it that I realized how much I loved it.

Idaho makes the best commercials. Today I watched one with a dancing, vacuuming gorilla. I couldn't stop laughing all night. Once i find this commercial, I am posting it!

lesson of the day.

tara should not eat food in the dark, particularly salsa.

hot man thursdays.

“All our young lives we search for someone to love. Someone who makes us complete. We choose partners and change partners. We dance to a song of heartbreak and hope... all the while wondering if somewhere, somehow, there's someone perfect... who might be searching for us.”

I'm turning Tuesday's into music days! I'm going to start posting music I love on Tuesday's. Stay tuned for great music :)

joyeux anniversaire mckenna.

a.k.a HAPPY BIRTHDAY MCKENNA! There is so much to say about this girl. I love her to pieces! We've known each other since 2nd grade, which is a long time! There is never a dull moment when you are with her. She is one of the craziest, prettiest, nicest girls I know! We have way too many memories for me to actually write them on here. Two consistent memories that I always have is that Mckenna is my go to hair dresser. She always colors my hair a beautiful chocolate peanut butter and I know she enjoys every moment of it ;) Another thing is me driving her around everywhere haha. I could never get enough of dancing and singing with her! Now we will never have to stop having memories because she's journeyed to Idaho and now goes to BYU-I! I love you TONS Mckenna/Manch/M-C-Kenna! I hope you have the most wonderful birthday yet!
