My Kind of Perfect.

This post is dedicated to my best friend. He is the most important person to me, and my most favorite person on the earth! :)


Reasons why I love him:
-he is absolutely hilarious. the kid knows exactly what I need to hear on days when I'm sad and feeling blue. my most favorite one. *background story* I'd just gotten my wisdom teeth pulled, and I was HUGE. I was in need of some comfort, and I just wanted to talk to him, so we got on skype, but I was too embarrassed to show my face. he finally convinced me... *the punchline* "well babe, you don't look any different than you do on a normal day." thanks hun. really appreciated that one... he was "ONLY trying to help."
-he is generous and kind. not just to me, but to EVERYONE! it's one of my favorite things about him.
-he is strong and steady in the gospel.
-he always has something positive to say.
-he is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. with kids. watching him with his niece and nephews just makes my heart flutter out of control! I would just sit back and watch him all day if I could.
-he's smart. he's not the greatest studier.... he's just a bit a.d.d.... but he tries to truly understand the material he studies. unlike me, I just memorize.
-he is such a hard worker! he works long days in the hot sun, and he doesn't complain. I come home from working 8 hours in an air conditioned building with an earful of complaints for him, and he just listens patiently. I don't think he knows how much I appreciate the hard work that he puts in, but I truly do. I admire him SO much for what he does. :)
-he is such an excellent listener. he listens and I know he cares. it's one of his strongest traits.
-he likes a clean mouth. that might be weird to say... but I'm pretty O.C.D. and I'm constantly brushing my teeth... turns out he does too. we're basically a match made in heaven. :)

-he likes the same things as me.. except, he doesn't like the sun. that isn't really okay with me, so I dragged him to the waterpark for a day.. he crisped like a lobster. poor guy. but he didn't complain very much. he's just such a trooper.
-he can handle an evening with my crazy family! and here's the kicker, he actually likes them! :)
-he loves country music. I have yet to find someone else who listens to as much country music as I do, and he does! he knows every word to every song. it's fantastic!
-he is "ridiculously good looking" (that's a self description I get quite often from him) but seriously. he really is handsome. blonde hair, blue eyes... what else could a girl ask for?! :)


The list could honestly go on and on. Words can't describe how much I love and miss the boy! My fingers are crossed that he will be able to make it up this weekend for a wedding!

We're pretty much the cutest couple on the block. ;)

A Weekend of Epic Adventures! Part 1.

I never blog anymore, because I never really have anything good to say... but maybe this will interest some of you..

This past weekend I took a nice roadtrip to Utah, just like last summer, but this one blows last year's right out of the water! :) I left right after work on Wednesday night (bad idea... driving through the night SUCKS!) but luckily I didn't crash, I didn't run into any animals on the road (except for a few dead skunks, those were always pleasant) and I made is safely to Lehi at 6:30 in the AM on Thursday. I wished my boy a happy day at work, and I attempted to sleep. Epic fail. My mind was still moving in a forward motion, after 12 straight hours of driving, but my body was in a horizontal position. Mix those two together and you get some serious nausea. Not fun. For most of the morning I attempted to sleep, but when I heard the bustling of people upstairs, I went up to join the fun. Aunt Wendy was on her way to work, so I said hello and goodbye and hopped in the shower. We all got ready for the day and I took my mom and Hannah shopping. We spent the day just roaming around Walmart, went to eat at Quizno's and then I dropped them off at Wendy's. I attempted to miss rush hour traffic by leaving early to get to South Weber by the time Shae got off of work, epic fail again.

I pulled up to his house at 5:00, and asked him if he was done work. He said he'd be home at 6:30.... yet again.. epic fail "what to do with an hour an a half?" "should I go to Ogden?" "Should I just sit in my car and read?" I didn't know if anyone was home or not... luckily his mom came out and invited me in, so I played with the three most adorable boys on the planet! His nephews are SO much fun to be around. The weather was PERFECT for me... smokin' hot! I just soaked up the sun, and very much enjoyed spending time with the boys. Then MY boy came home from work and what did we do? We had a waterfight. After he was soaked he gave me a big hug. I'd been looking forward to that for the last month! After we were all ready for the night, his parents took us out to eat in celebration of his 22nd BIRTHDAY! woot! I've never known a grown man could laugh so hard! His parents are absolutely hilarious, and I just love them both to death! It was a fantastic meal, with excellent company! :)

The rest of the night was great, lots of laughter, and hugging.. maybe a kiss here and there... ;) I was just so glad to be with him on his birthday. It meant a lot to the both of us! After being awake for almost 50 hours, I finally left him and went to Ogden to sleep. I hate driving to Utah, but I'd do it a thousand times more for another day like this one. I just love being with him, and his family!
