Happy BeLATEd Birthday, T-Rev!

As I mentioned in a previous post, it was Trevor's birthday two Wednesdays ago (the 15th).  Now, this guy really deserves a post of his own.  Seriously, he's pretty awesome. I mean, really, just look at him!


Good As Gold Blog


I crush on him like Aaron Carter in the 90's.

For those of you who don't know, Trev & I have been dating for a little over a year.  A few things about Trev? 
He's the bees knees.  
He is so. stinkin. funny.  
He is the smartest person I know.  
He's a go-getter.  
He doesn't settle for adequate.
He's extremely patient.
He's goo-hood lookin.
.... etc. etc.

I'd love to write a post up on our story & how I tricked him into our first date, but I'll save that for another day.

For now, Happy Birthday Trev!

Love you as much as two rockets going opposite ways in space.
Yep.

Giveaway & Sketchy iPhone

Happy Monday, everyone!

I'm so excited to have gained some new followers due to this giveaway! 

Welcome!!

Normally on Mondays, I have my weekend update with pictures from our adventures, but this weekend was extremely 'chill', so we really didn't get any good pics in.  Also, my iPhone keeps giving me this message:

iPhone Issues


No matter how many photos & videos I delete, it stays there to mock me.

Anyone know how to fix this? I only have about 100 photos on my 8 GB iPhone, and my storage says I have 4 Gigs left.. c'mon Apple!  

I'm hoping to have this fixed soon so I can (conveniently) take more pics! Help!


**Also!  The winner of the Birchbox Giveaway will be announced TOMORROW!  This is your last chance to get more entries by sharing via Twitter, Facebook, Blogging, etc.  Let me know what you did by commenting on the giveaway post!**

Come back tomorrow for a winner & Good Luck!

Bear Lake Weekend

Wow! Do these weeks fly by or what? Every Monday I decide to get my weekend photo post up, and realize that I haven't posted anything in between.  Hmmph!

This week I do have a good excuse, though.  Wednesday was Trevor's 23rd Birthday (Happy Birthday, Babe!), and on Friday, we left for Bear Lake to spend the night with some family.  Of course we built a sand turtle and took many pictures!

My Weekend in iPhone Photos

Lagoon Utah



 Carnival Food 




Miss Utah County

Weekends are THE BEST.  Especially long weekends.  Trev & I took the day off on Friday to go to Lagoon, a local theme park here in Utah, with my family.   We enjoyed riding some coasters, eating a lot of junk food, and trying to stay out of the rain.  We really had to laugh because at 21 & *almost* 23 years old, we got queasy after the first few rides... we're turning into old farts.  Still, it was a great time.

We also were able to go watch one of my very best friends, Sarah, compete in the Miss Utah County pageant this weekend.  She did an amazing job, and consistently blew the audience away.  She didn't walk away with the title, but her fan club was by far the loudest and the proudest.

My Weekend in iPhone Photos

The best part of this weekend was a family visit at my aunt and uncles beautiful home in Provo, Utah.  I really should have taken more photos of their amazing landscaping in their backyard... I feel like every time I visit they have a new addition.  We spent time in the pool, which we greatly enjoyed in the midst of the summer heat, and of course, no family party would be complete without burgers and my grandma's Jell-o salad!
