Holy. Moly.
Sorry for being MIA but it’s totally what I needed. I just needed to take a little vacation from my little space on the internet. It felt good but I’m back!
What are your plans for the long weekend? I’m going up to a cabin in Idaho to play in the snow. We’ll see how that goes since all my encounters with snow in the past have been a little scaring to say the least. But it should be fun!
Make sure to check back Tuesday for a giveaway!
a new week.

Things I’ve learned this last week:
- Moms make everything better
- I have the best roommate
- Stalking yourself on Facebook and laughing at so many ridiculous pictures will sure get you out of a bad mood
- Everything will turn out just fine
- It is better to make a decision, even if it is the wrong one, than to not make one at all. Because no matter the outcome you will still learn something from the experience
- Jamming out to music is the best
Sorry I wasn’t around that much last week, but I just had so much going on that I just need a little break!
Happy Monday!
it’s monday.

So I was so unproductive over the weekend because I was too stubborn to be productive, which is just ridiculous and makes Mondays that much worse.
Lesson Learned: Don’t mope around on the weekend and be stubborn.
I did do one thing this weekend – bought a new lip stick. Like it? I sure do!
zions national park.
{We stopped by a little ghost town on our way to zions national park.}
Here are some pictures from my trip to St. George that I took over the long weekend with my friend and her family. One of the days we hiked Angels Landing in Zions National Park and it was absolutely gorgeous! I loved it and if any of you have the chance to hike it, please do!
Coming here to Utah I definitely had a negative attitude because one) I had to leave home earlier than I thought I would and two) I’ve never really liked Utah to be honest. I thought the mountains were ugly and brown because I was used to the green forests of Oregon. Except since coming here I’ve definitely have had a change of heart {and i really think taking geology had to do with this!}. All during the hike I marveled and couldn’t get over how beautiful the mountains and the views were. It was incredible!
This is the conclusion I came to, it’s a total different kind of beauty – the beauty that is in Utah and the beauty that is in Oregon. That you can’t even compare the two.
Happy weekend my loves.
