Come what may....

Friends! Well once again I don't really have a great theme for this blog, but this one might make you laugh! So I want to apologize about the randomness of my blogging!

Being a girl, it is natural to make a "list of future husband characteristics". Well, as I have looked through my journals through the my growing up, my lists have changed. I found one that I had written when I was twelve, I had to laugh out loud at what I put. I was young and had no idea what love was, and to be honest, I knew nothing of what I wanted in a spouse. I am almost positive that what I thought what I wanted was based off of animated Disney heroes!
List of a 12 year old me:
-My height               - Curly hair              -Green eyes            -Mormon               -Eagle Scout
-Big muscles            -Good style               -Funny                  -Cute                       -Has a job

Now, when I read this short list of characteristics, I just giggled, and said "Wow!" Oh being 12 and immature, this really proved I had no idea what I wanted. I moved on to another journal and found yet again, another list of characteristics that I wanted in my spouse. This time I was a little more grown up, ha I was 17. Here's to a young life!
List of a wishing 17 year old me:
-Tall     -Dark Hair     -Tan skin     -Returned missionary     -Sense of humor     -Priesthood holder    -Has a reasonable job    -Caring     -Handsome    -Athletic     -Adventurous    -Great listener     -Has a car  Can drive    -Singer     -Ripped Abs     -Loves camping     -Loves to cook     -Inventive

Well, this list was a bit more reasonable, but I didn't put all of the qualities that I listed. I sure expedted a lot of things out of my future husband. My list kept going and going. At this point I still had no idea what love was, and at this point in my life had just experienced my first kiss. I look back on those years and laugh at what could have been. This is what I call puppy dog love. All of these qualities are great and some of them I even kept. Not that I am any older now, but this time as I sat down and wrote my list, is was short and made me really really think about what I want in my future spouse. I realized that he will not only by my spouse, but my best friend, my eternal companion, my husband. I am enjoying the single life, but one day, I will no longer have to fantasize about what it will be like to have my prince charming. I will find my happily ever after soon enough! Here is to finding "the one"
List of a waiting 20year old me: 
-Priesthood holder    -Temple worthy     -Desire to be a father     -Returned Missionary    -Treats me like a princess    -Adventurous     -Handsome        -Can make me laugh    -Has an education       -Loves to cuddle    -Will hold my hand (all the time)   -Call me beautiful when I look like crap    -Be a good example to me and our family.... -The rest.... TO BE DETERMINED!

I know this list is weird, but this is the start of what I want in a husband, I will come to know the rest of the qualities when I find the guy. I can make a list and try and find him that way, but I had to be realistic, not one guy could have all of the characteristics, I am sure that my list will no longer matter when I find him! I do want certain things such as the five on my last list, those are very important to me. Well where ever he may be, I have learned over the years to be patient, and that he will come and it will be a happily every after!

Potty Training and tips

I know most of you won't care about this post, but I know my future self will be grateful for it. Potty training is so tricky and it really tested my patience. I know everyone experiences it differently and each kid is different. I did a bunch of research on tricks and tips. I didn't just stick to one, I tried a few different ones and even combined some. Let's start from the beginning. Spencer and I wanted to have Evie potty trained before our new little one arrives. I can't even begin to tell you how many people told me I should wait until the new baby came. A good chunk of these same people told me Evie was too young (she is 22 months) and it wasn't worth my time to even try. Here's the thing; I kind of get why people told me these things, but it really made me doubt my abilities to teach Evie a hard task. Let's all be kind and not mom shame those who try things differently and earlier than others. I am with her all day, every day and paid attention to a...

What being in college has taught me

I know I have been terrible at writing on my blog the past couple of months. School has engulfed my attention and honestly blogging has been the last on my priority list. I wanted to write blog about my college experience... since I graduate in 53 days. I am thrilled beyond words to be this close to being done. I had know idea it would feel like this nor that it would come so soon. In just a few short months I will be able to call myself a graduate of Health Promotion and Education with an emphasis in Community, also being eligible to become CHES (Certified Health Education Specialist) certified. Wow what a mouthful! Being in college was not like I expected, it was much more. I have been through the worst of worst and the best of best experiences. I would like to share with you what I have learned in the past four years (From beginning to end), I hope you can get a good laugh about it. To those who have yet to start college, I strongly encourage you to start thinking about going. You w...

How to know when to be grateful!

Happy Thanksgiving friends! Wow time has sure flown by, I want to apologize for it taking so long for me to blog... my life literally has been crazy these past few weeks. Now I am not asking for a pity party, or your sympathy, because all of the incidents that have happened to me have helped me me more grateful for the things that I have instead of the things that I yearn after. Well buckle up, I am going to take you on my adventure the past couple of weeks. This time of year is when everyone should be gathering together and celebrating with family. Well my family has been doing so, but not like one would want. In the past two months or so , my family has had two surgeries, an emergency room visit, two cars break down to where we ended up getting a new car, and a sister get married,a sister get engaged, and a sister have an ovarian cyst burst. At first we all kept asking, when will we ever get a break from this hectic way of life. Well it never will get any easier,...
