day TWELVE!

Day 12 – A photograph of the town you live in.
Logan, UTAH! Oh how I LOVE YOU!

I sure do love Logan and I'm so thankful for it. I love the people, the small town feel, and the summer, fall, and spring are to die for. All my Wyoming friends say it's like a big Star Valley. I moved to Logan because I was at a place at my life that I needed to change. I wasn't headed on a very happy path so I decided to start over. Move to a new town, new state, new environment. My sister Stormi and her son Kase lived here so that's why I chose Logan to be my fresh start. Best decision ever! Logan brought me to great friends, great memories, lots of stupid boyfriends(which I learned a lot from haha), and I learned how to be independent and to be me! And I found Ryan! The hottest stud in Logan! haha. I was sealed to Ryan in the Logan temple. Logan you will always have a place in my heart.

Oh and p.s. you people complaining about how cold is it. . . Didn't you live here last winter? and the winter before? Why are you surprised it's so cold? It's February! IN UTAH! Jeez Louise! Stop the whining. Haha! :)

day ELEVEN!

day eleven-what's in your make up bag?

Haha. Oh sad. My makeup bag is pathetic and always has been. When I grow up my bag will be full of bare minerals and all mac products. It will be beautiful. I will also learn HOW to put make up on. I'm horrible at it. I put my eyeshadow on with my finger. . no brush. . that's how bad I am. But for now, I will spend what very little money we have on other things. . .Like skiing! (see post below)

I do love this mascara though. I've used it since I was 12 and probably always will. Don't you love how 80's it looks? So great.

I also have this sad little brownish set of eyeshadows, mac liquid eyeliner(thanks mom), and bronzer. That's all I need for now!

P.S. Is anyone reading my blog posts? If so comment you little scampers.

i'm a new woman!

Day 10 continued.. . .OH. MY. GOODNESS. I went skiing. AND LOVED IT! My other job is at a treatment center with teens that have eating disorders. I've been wanting to get over my fear of skiing for years, so with my "yes man" new years resolution I decided to volunteer as one of the DC staff. Best decision I've ever made! I have made myself sick the past 2 weeks worrying about the trip, and when my alarm went off at 4:30am this morning I was regretting my decision. But oh my word it was a blast! I only fell once! It was a pretty funny fall though. As we were making our way down a trail during the ski class I asked my boss if I could just go straight down the mountain instead of the trail. She told me to go for it. I forgot to turn though. . . So I went "french fry" style down and was going WAY to fast. I heard one of the instructors behind me yelling, "WE LOST ONE!" haha. I knew I didn't have control so I fell down on my side to keep from hurting myself or someone else. . But the funny thing is. . I plugged my nose before I wrecked. haha. Can you tell I grew up water skiing??? hahaha. My boss and the instructor kept asking if I was ok but I kept laughing and saying, "I can't believe I plugged my nose!" So that was my only fall of the day. I learned my lesson to make big turns and had a very successful run on the big girl run. I'm so happy about this! Ryan is such a great skiier so I'm so excited to go together. We are already planning a ski trip together in the next couple weeks. We have also already talked about us going together, eating lunch together while up there, but mostly going on different runs to keep from frustrating eachother. (Me easy runs, him black diamond and what not) haha. YAY for new hobbies! I'm so proud of myself for saying "YES MAN!"

day TEN!

Day 10 – A photo of your favorite place to eat.

Well my favorite place to eat is totally Texas Roadhouse. Oh yum I love it! But since I've already blogged about that beautiful place I will post a few other of my favez.


BEST PLACE EVER! Only problem is. . they don't have one in Logan. So whenever we go to Ryan's neck of the woods in Draper. That's our first stop.




HAPPY SUSHI! OH MY WORD I LOVE SUSHI! I even work at Happy Sushi. That's how much i freakin love it. baha! If only it wasn't 15 bones a roll. . . When I'm rich I will eat sushi once a week. At least.

day NINE!

Day 9 – A photo of the item you last purchased.

I bought this old book yesterday at the DI for 2 dollars! I got this idea from the art teacher at my job. You can use it as a journal, scrap book, quote book, whatever you want! I'm keeping notes from loved ones, pictures I've taken, pictures that inspire my photography, and my favorite quotes and random thoughts. I'm so excited about it!

day EIGHT!

Day 8 – A song to match your mood.

Callin Baton Rouge by Garth Brooks.

I LOVE THIS SONG! And have for a long time. It even says my name in it! "hello samantha dear I hope you're feeling fine, it won't be long until I'm with you all the time!" haha. I'm in the mood for summer! Country music is so much more fun to listen to in the Wyoming summer. Right now I miss my family. I miss Wyoming summers with my them. I miss us all being together and jammin together to Garth without a worry in the world. LONG LIVE GARTH! You're a stud muffin.

day SEVEN!

Day 7 – Your dream wedding.
I already had mine! How fun! I loved my wedding day. I loved the reception, the CAKE!, being around friends and family all day, being in a princess dress, and all of the fun little details. The sealing was by far my favorite part. After the sealing I didn't care what happened. I even ripped my wedding dress in the temple and I didn't even give a crap. Because I was married for time and all eternity to Ryan. I'm so lucky I married someone as great as Ryan. What a dream.
