Where do I begin...

So the last time I blogged I was just days away from marrying the love of my life!  Now, today marks our 4 month anniversary since we've been married and life couldn't get any better!!  Our lives are just as busy if not more so but some how having each other makes it okay!  We are both still in School!  We both still work both our jobs and love them.  I received a calling in our Family Ward to be the Beehive adviser in Young Womens, back in September and love every minute of it!  Ryan has been working with the orderly's in the OR at Logan Regional Hospital and he cant seem to get enough of it. He really enjoys this and is super excite to continue education to Med School in a year or so!!  We just love our little family.  Our two cats are just adorably cute and Battle Cat is still fat but we are working on that with her everyday!  They sure do light up our lives!  As the count down begins for Christmas we can't be more excited to head to Carolina to spend Christmas with our Families!!!!

It's almost time!

Time is quickley dwindling down before the BIG day!!!  I can't believe it.  I look back and I thought i'd never be able to get everything done in time before I left to go back to NC but I did with lots of help from my amazing family and friends!!  So i'm 97%  ready now!  Only a few minor details to finish working on!  So this week has been crazy and a blast all at the same time!  I feel like Ryan and I run off of NASCAR fuel because I have no idea how we fit so many things into such a short amount of time!  So this week we have accomplished all of these things while working 40 + hour week:
*Bridal pictures
*Packed up my apartment
*Moved all my stuff to our new "married" apartment
*Emptied out our 10x10 storage unit into our kitchen
*When through all the storage bins (20 +) and either kept stuff or donated or trashed stuff
*Got our BMW title switched to a UT title (had to pull so many strings it was silly)
*Went and got insurance on the BMW in UT
*Had a Bonfire and roasted marshmallows and hotdogs
*Hiked the Wind Caves with Jess and KC in Logan Canyon
*Bought a remote control helicopter and played with it all afternoon and night chasing Buddy around with it
*Dinner with friends
*2 Doctor appointments
*1 Vet appointment
*Got a new phone
*Sent out all wedding invitations
*Payed all bills
*Visit Teaching :)

Here is a sneak peek of my bridals :)

And I'm sure I'm leaving lots of things out because we did so much more than whats on that list! HA So yeah this week has been awesome but crazy!  But to be honest, most of our weeks are like this.  We just like to fit in as much as possible and fill every minute of every day!  Now i'm going to finish up my laundry and pack for North Carolina!  I'm headed home on Sat to spend the rest of the time with my Mama before I go and get married in Washington D.C. on August 2, 2011!

Silly me....

So today I got my other foot back!! Whaahoo!  Well I've had my other foot but it's finally out of the big black boot I've been wearing for the last month!  I was so excited that I just have to wear a brace that I forgot about everything else!  This is what silly me did today...as I was running out the door for work I grabbed some letters (5) that I've been wanting to mail for a while.  I forgot that the reason I've been waiting to mail them is because I needed the peoples addresses.  But silly me grabbed them, not thinking, and put them in the outgoing mailbox.   At 5pm I realized that I put these 5 letters to be mailed without any addresses of who they are going too.  Well they have names on them but no address.  HAHA So upon my discovery of this I raced to the Post Office beside my apartment complex and explained my silly mistake and my dilimma to the Post Office man, who by the way didn't laugh at me till I laughed at myself.  He said, "It's not everyday someone forgets the address on a letter...most just forget the stamps" HA and he laughed harder after that.  It was really funny.  He said not to worry that he would write a note to the mailman that covers my route that he just needed to put those letters back into my mailbox tomorrow morning for me so that I could address them and put them back in the mail!  Lets just say because of my sillyness, I made a few people laugh. :)  So now, I love the mail people!  Especially ones like him. hehe

Baby Animals Day

Today at preschool we went on a field trip to the American West Heritage Center for Baby Animal Day!  We lucked out and had nice weather and no rain like they were calling for!  The kids loved seeing and petting all the animals!  They had calves, piglets, 2 week old baby lambs, baby chicks, ducklings, peacocks, and baby goats!  I think I enjoyed the field trip more than the kids did!

The many faces of Lindsey

Want a good laugh...check out these silly faces of mine ha! So as I was looking though my pictures last night and I noticed all the many different faces that I make.  Some are happy, some are really happy, some are mad looking, some surprised...etc. and I couldn't quit laughing so I had to share this!  So I've cropped the pictures so that you only see my face and can't see why i'm making the face which makes it so hilarious!  So tell me why you think i'm making these faces ha!

Love Better Than Ezra

One of my all time favorite Bands: Better Than Ezra, the lyrics that reach the soul


"Breathless":


Here you are now
Fresh from your war
Back from the edge of time
And all that you were,
Stripped to the bone
I thought you­d want to know

That when you feel the world is crashing
All around your feet
Come running headlong into my arms
Breathless
I'll never judge you
I can only love you
Come now running headlong
Into my arms
Breathless

Lay down your guns
Too weak to run
Nothing can harm you here
Your precious heart
Broken and scarred
Somehow you made it through
I only ask that you won't go again

When you feel the world is crashing
All around your feet
Come running headlong into my arms
Breathless
I'll never judge you
I can only love you
Come now running headlong
Into my arms
Breathless

So glad to see you smiling
So good to hear your laugh
I think that you've found you even 
Missed yourself
I'm only asking this because I think that
Truth be told
Oh, you'll never go again
Again

When you feel the world is crashing
All around your feet
Come running headlong into my arms
Breathless
I'll never judge you
I can only love you
Come now running headlong
Into my arms
Breathless
Breathless



"Just One Day"


If you could change the choices that you made,
Would you do it- today?
If you could spin the world the other way,
Could you do it on faith?
If time would stand still,

What would you do? What would you say?
If everyone you love came back for just one day?
How would it feel if every dream came real?
And all the scars you have fade away
For just one day

Imagine all the times you that could take back
What would you have done differently?
Thoughts in your head you never said
Or a heart that you broke and left for dead
If all the pain you had could be released
How life flies by.

What would you do? What would you say?
If everyone you love came back for just one day
How would if feel if every dream came real
And all the scars you have fade away?

For just one day

And the night
All the good times and the fights
All the take and the give
All the moments that we never got to live
Ohhh.....

What would you do? What would you say?
If everyone you love came back for just one day
How would it feel if every dream came real
And all the scars you have fade a way

[Repeat]

For just one day [x2]

If you could change the choices that you made,
Would you do it- today?


Then Ryan discovered this amazing cover done by Brandon Sammons on Better Than Ezra's song "Good"

"Good" Lyrics By: Better Than Ezra
Looking around the house.
Hidden behind the window and the door.
Searching for signs of life but there's nobody home.

Well, maybe I'm just too sure.
Maybe I'm just too frightened
by the sound of it.
Pieces of note fall down, but the letter said,

[CHORUS:]
Aha, it was good living with you.
Aha, it was good.
Aha, it was good living with you.
Aha, it was good.

Sitting around the house,
watching the sun trace shadows on the floor.
Searching for signs of life, but there's nobody home.

Well, maybe I'll call
or write you a letter.
Now, maybe we'll see on the Fourth of July.
But I'm not too sure, and I'm not too proud.
Well, I'm not too sure and I'm not too proud to say.

[CHORUS:]
Aha, it was good living with you.
Aha, it was good.
Aha, it was good living with you.
Aha, it was good.

[spoken:]
Yeah, you were so good.yeah you were so good, yeah that's right... 


I just can't seem to get enough of this song, I love it

Bedazzel

So this is how I role around town now.  BEDAZZLED by me!  So tomorrow makes a months since my surgery and so far things have been doing okay. I have moments where I have more pain than others but nothing that Ibuprofen and Tylenol can't take care of.  I still can't be up on my foot more than 5-10 min at one time but life is good and this hasn't slowed me down a bit!
