Ronnie's Wedding!


Ronnie and I first became friends through work. I remember meeting her and when she told me she was a theater major I was slightly intimidated. It wasn't long before we became best friends and then roommates. Ronnie brings out the funniest side of me. We would stay up till 2 or 3 in the morning watching jane austin movies like persuasion, mansfield park, pride and prejudice, and north anger abby. She loves TV and movies as much as I do if not more and we loved coming home from a long day of work and school and jumping into our favorite shows. I have to say that those times that I spent with Ronnie in our PJ's just staying up late and laughing together are my favorite, and I will miss them so much. Hopefully one day when I'm married too we can make our husbands leave the house and we can have a pajama party watching our favorites again.

I called Ronnie and Bradley Scott getting married from the start. I was there when they met and when they started dating I told Ronnie he was a keeper. They are so great together and it was so fun to see their relationship develop.
When they came out of the temple Bradley Scott surprised us all with his dip. It was pretty cute.

All of the Bridesmaids
This is 4 of the sensational 6. The sensational 6 consists of Ronnie, Jenn, me, Mark, Newman, and Nate. We all met at work and just became the best of friends. Unfortunately we couldn't get us all in a picture together. The actions we're doing with our hands is an inside joke to call over to Cosmo. If I explained it, well it wouldn't make sense so just know that it's something we do.

This was the cutest them singing their song to each other, "I've got a crush on you"


Ronnie, I love you and I will miss you so much, but I know you're in good hands! Congratulations my dear friend!

Nicole's Wedding

I have to say this was one of the hardest weddings I've ever been to and the only reason is because it was so hard to say goodbye to Nicole. Nicole is my very best friend who I met when we were first roommates together at BYU:

She has become more than a friend to me, she is my sister through and through and it was so wonderful to be inside the temple with her and to be apart of that special experience. She married an amazing guy and I have no doubt they will be so happy together! He better take care of that girl!


Their reception was gorgeous they had it outside in this beautiful back yard that had all of these amazing plants and trees with lights hung from the top and on the trees with candles lit every where.



I'm sad to be leaving for a 1 1/2 and i think that saying goodbye to her was the first reality hit of what I'm doing. When I come back a lot of my friends will be gone, off on their own adventures and in a way it feels like an ending in my life but I do know that a lot of beginnings are forming for my friends and for me as well and I couldn't be happier for all of them!

Congratulations Nicole!

I love you Roommate!

What NOT to wear?

The mission is fast approaching and I have to get all of my "Sister Missionary" clothes ready...bleh. I know everyone's been telling me that I just need to suck it up and try to look like a Sister missionary since after all that's what I will be. However, I do NOT want to look frumpy and the idea of wearing gross shoes does NOT excite me.These are the shoes I'm ordering, a girl who served in Halifax said that they lasted her the entire mission and that they were really comfortable. I'm grateful for the tip, because it's been hard to find ones that will work. I just hope they look good with my skirts....oh the skirts... Really the skirts will be good, I've had a lot of good help from Mom and Traci with finding some cute ones. The only thing about shopping for long skirts is that when you first enter the store they all look ugly...then by the end everything looks like it could work. By the time Traci and I were almost done with the dress barn I was looking in the plus sizes to find something.


Really I think it will be great, Mom is making 2 dresses for me to wear which I think will be so cute! And it will be cold most of the time so I get to wear cute sweaters. I really am excited, and I LOVE the fact that I will be a Sister missionary, I just hope I can pull off looking semi-descent while being one!
