pretty much professional.

since my dad is a painter....

you gotta love him.



automatic motivation.

when you do something uncomfortable your mind automatically tells you to stop.

and when you are conditioning you cant listen to that consoling thought.

you have to keep going and going hard if you want to become better and stronger.

if you stop even once, you will keep stopping.

i have learned this over my years of soccer and basketball.

it is a great lesson learned.

so, even if you think you cant keep going, you can. no matter what.

You Can.

back to basics

when you all week in a T-shirt and hair in a ponytail, you look forward to dressing up for Sunday!!

yesterday i was debating what to wear when i came across a dress that i got 3 years ago and  hadn't worn that much in those years. so i decided to try it..... and guess what?? I LOVED IT!!! i had never really liked that dress, but i guess something has changed!

i love it so much i took pictures...

now that i am content.

ok. finally came up with a blog design that i like.

summer is over half way over.
seems like it just started.
 don't get me wrong i am excited for school, but i enjoy the summer time too much to give it up for homework and utah snow.
i need to get the most of the rest of this sunny season.
so here is my bucket list for the last 4ish weeks of summer.

make the Varsity soccer team. (JV would work too!)

seven peaks. seven peaks. and then seven peaks.

finish the shirt i am making for the first day of school.

start a good book series ( any suggestions)

see Harry Potter 7 part:2 ( after an all day HP marathon, of course!)

get a new camera (what happened to my old one.)

photoshoot!!!

and.... anyone doing something fun this summer??

HELP!!

i am not sure if i like this new design...
so tell me what you think or any ideas you have!!

singing in the rain.

soccer practice cut short.

almost being struck by lightening with one of your best friends.

being soaked by the rain.

loving every moment.

cousins. oh, the cousins. :)

family home evening?? heck yeah!!

soccer two-a-days. try-outs in two weeks. Yikes!!

wondering who your TRUE best friends are.

loving every moment.

summer time.

You and Me.

forever.

yeah. if only i had someone that would be this cute around me. but, let's face it. we all do. don't we??

i am in Love!!

i was doing my usual blog stalking and went to one of my favorites.

 my sister's closet. and i saw an amazing video by an artist i had never heard of before!!

 Andrew Allen.. well anyway i fell in love.

can i get a new one?

we were hiking.
and hallie realized that her CTR ring had fallen off.
which then began the search.

we did find it.
but it got me thinking.

i really need a new one.

of course i have had CTR rings before.

but i dont currently do.
and i want one.

it's gone. forever.

rafting down a river with my besties Hallie Paige Valentina  and Shaylee
was told that there weren't alot of rapids.
stupidly brought my prize possesion. my camera. attached to me at all times.
realized that the rapids were much bigger than told.
and got scared.
not for me or my friends.
but for my camera.

i lost it in the river.
and almost cried. (i did cry)

i happened to save the SD card though.

and this was my last picture.

Fourth Year

this event comes annually for most of us utah girls.

where we all get together and forget about make-up and looking good.

we stay up late talking, just talking.

we all smell like campfire and have frizzy hair.

but still manage to be the most beautiful girls around!

testimonies. pranks. secret sisters. camping. matching sweatshirts. you know, the works.

GIRL'S CAMP 2011 here we come!!
