made me smile

sisters65

as i was diffusing my hair this morning, head upside down and all, i happened to look over and this picture and it just put a smile on my face. i seriously have the most beautiful sisters and they rock! i am so very blessed to have 3 amazing sisters who are my rock each and everyday. if something exciting, frustrating, sad, super happy, embarrassing happens, they are the first i tell. (i also have 3 amazing brothers who rock too and who are the best brothers I could’ve asked for, but this was the picture i saw this morning) all i know is i’m one lucky gal for this awesome family of mine!

all the best parts of arizona

buttkiss

a HUGE thanks to buttkiss for driving a long ways to come see me and for getting ice cream with me….it was so fun to see this amazing friend of mine. I love you Buttkiss (and yes we call each other buttkiss……inside story that i will always laugh about)

dallin maxchar

some of my very favorite people….this was the first time seeing my friend dallin in over 2 years and it was so fun to catch up. And then of course there is Max and Charlotte….these two will always have a special place in my heart, they took me in for my 2 years in arizona and put up with me for those 2 years. seriously awesome people if you ask me

i’m so glad i got to visit with one of my very dearest friends and her sweet little baby. and this is one of the worst pictures haha i guess thats what i get for trying to do a self-portrait.

party3

the bachelorette party!!! woot woot….we ate at a fabulous restaurant and played some games at our friends house. it was such a fun night out with the girls celebrated Dee and her wedding!! yes i took a ton of pictures while Dee was opening her gifts (we made her open them at the restaurant with the hopes of embarrassing her hehe) but some are a bit risky, so i will just let dee have those pics.

clearly though i didn’t take nearly as many pictures as i should have….one of my flaws for sure. all in all arizona was as beautiful as ever, weather was hot hot and more hot and the sun was shining non-stop. i saw most of my favorite people and am so glad i was able to visit with them!! until my next arizona trip, this one will have to do :)

22 baby!

oh yes august came and went which included my bday. i was in arizona on my birthday at my cousin’s house…. i was a little bummed for not being home, but my cousins had made the day so fun for me. they didn’t have church until 130 pm which i’m usually against late church meetings, but that day i loved it. i was able to relax and sleep in after a week of little to no sleep. church was wonderful as always, then an amazing dinner and later a delicious trifle. yum yum…a HUGE thanks to my awesome cousins for making the day that much better for me. also as another cousin has started, i am officially in a responsible year….so bring it on 22!bdaybdaykathykerry bday girls

all festive complete with birthday hats!
