Sugar, Spice & Everything nice

Every year, this time of year, one of the things i look most forward to are the baby clothes at Anthropologie, I cannot tell you how much I adore their little baby clothes, and the sad thing is they only carry them once a year! I already bought some from previous years and have them stored away for safe keeping ;)
Does the fact that I get so excited about these little
clothes mean I want a baby?

Take A look it's in a book...

Following in suit with my Fall season post, It being the time of year to cuddle up with a blanket a hot drink and a book, here are some books that come Highly recommended... from me:


As I'm sure you can tell I am quite the Pat Conroy book reader, But of course I am, Not only do most of his books set the stage in the Coastal South, they are also quite enjoyable reads!
I am currently reading this one; South of Broad. I am not finished yet, but so far so good!



It's Fall ya'll!

I know once it hits that time of year everyone starts blogging about fall, but I guess we just can't help it, Fall is quite possibly THE BEST season, no scratch that, It IS the best season!
Ive been off work this week, so I have been relaxing and reading and spending time with my small family. I don't know what it is about hot drinks, cold weather and big blankets that make me happy, but they do!
Today Darin and I took the dogs to the DP (dog park, the DP is our code name so the dogs don't know what we are talking about, but they typically figure it out half way there and start squealing like little pigs) It was about 75 when we got there and while we were there the wind started blowing hard and it started drizzling, when we got in that car it had dropped down to 55 degrees in 30 mins! It was so nice. I just hope this weather decides to stick around, I'm getting sick of this Utah heat. Bring on the cold I say!

I want some hot cider!

Oh that's Nasty

Darin and I were watching Family guy tonight and as we were sitting there, Darin farts, as I'm gagging I say "Darin that's nasty!" and literally, I kid you not, not even a second later on family Guy Cleaveland says "ohhh that's nassttyy" it was priceless! I'm pretty sure this might not be as funny to some as it was to me and Darin, but I thought it was quite hilarious!

Charity Never Faileth

I don't typically post religious things on my blog, maybe I should, but I have never really been too compelled to. However, last weekend my sister -in- law Marian and I went to the Relief Society conference held at the conference center in Salt Lake City, Utah. I have been to the Conference center a few times and although it is quite an amazing building I don't really like going to it during conference time... Too crazy & crowded. I was however, glad we did this last weekend, we got to hear president Thomas S. Monson speak along with the Relief Society general presidency, and the talks they gave were amazing. I was particularly fond of president Monson's talk, he spoke on charity and he told one of the sweetest stories I have heard in a long time.
If you weren't able to go to conference or watch it, I highly recommend reading this talk, It doesn't matter what religion you are or if you aren't religious at all, there is always something we can learn on being charitable, loving and tolerant of all people.

I'm my parent's daughter

No matter what anyone says, I have the BEST parents in the whole wide world, And I know why god put me in my family, because no matter what I will always love my parents and think that they are the best parents in the whole world.This month is my momma's birthday and this month my dad will have been in the Philippines for a year! I miss my parents so much and I guess it took my moving to this hot desert wasteland for me to realize how much I miss my roots! I know my mom thinks I am a daddies girl, but truth be told, I am my parents girl and I love them more than they could possibly know!

So I guess you could say this little blurp is a tribute to the two best people I know, and who taught me so many different things! I know you guys won't read this (I don't even know if you know I have a blog, but I love you. You are both my role models!)

this song reminds me of my daddy and I absolutely love it. Have a listen.
