Valentines Day, Presidents Day, And everything around that.

I decided that my political philosophy paper could take a break so I made some Tea and decided to write a new blog post.


So Its that time of year again. The time of love. This year it was my year to plan V day. So I decided to work!!! DJ and I both agreed that we would work and it was a good thing because we made some serious dough. we both worked ALL day Friday and Saturday. About 11 hours day each for us. By Saturday night we were beat!!! But he was cute and got me some cake. We are on this health kick and the only thing I have wanted was cake! So he got me this little cute heart cake. I did a ten ways I love you with a cute gift each day before Valentines Day. Except I obviously cant count and had nine lol. I did get him a new backpack and he was so excited about it, it was really cute. The picture below was one of the gifts. It was a cute box with two chocolates that said Pea and on the lid of the box was Pod. Two peas in a pod. Get it!


On Sunday we got up around noon and we both went to Boise for a concert and to see some of my friends. I got to see my friend Jamie is a childhood friend from Ririe and I got to see my friend Tyler who I use to work with. We stayed with my Bestie Ashley. We all had dinner together and it was so good to see everyone and catch up. We went to a concert and it was so much fun. We went and saw Schuyler Fisk (Sky-ler in case you were wondering) and Ben Taylor. I had seen Schuyler Fisk before with Joshua Radin (they were dating at the time. Then they broke up and he made a new album .lol ) But I had not seen Ben Taylor before. He was AMAZING! He is the Son of James Taylor and Carly Simon which I think is so cool .Yet everyone I tell this to, they don't know who they are!! It BOGGLED my mind. So for those wondering I put some songs up from all three. The Ben Taylor song he wrote for his mom, Carly Simon. James Taylor How Sweet it is you should know and Your So Vain by Carly Simon you should know too. I hope otherwise you must live in a box ;) DJ doesn't really like any of my music but he is the best ever and still goes with me to these concerts. It makes me realize how lucky I am to have such a great guy.

I love listening to music and going to concerts, sitting there just taking in the music surrounding you. there is not a better feeling in the World. It is undescribleI love it.

On Monday I dragged DJ around and we went shopping. We came home Monday night and now these next two weeks have been FILLED with homework. Its insane. Anyways I guess I will get back to this dag nab paper.

Lovely Tonight

I Love this song. I want it to be played at my wedding. Im still conviencing DJ ;) It's by Joshua Radin, who I love and have seen in concert twice. Here are the lyrics :

I need you to know
This won't be broken
And all that we said
Will not be lost into the dawn
And you would be
The last thing I saw coming
I'm still surprised
You are lovely tonight
You, dear, will guide me
Into the morning light
You are lovely tonight
Lay here beside me
I see the rest of my life
With youAlone we are fine
But when we are two
We are eterna
lThe moons aligned
Our separate lives
Here become one
And you would be
The last thing I saw coming
I'm still surprised
You are lovely tonight
You, dear, will guide me
Into the morning light
You are lovely tonight
Lay here beside me
I see the rest of my life With you
All my life I've lived alone without you
All this time, I couldn't find where to belong
And you are lovely tonight
You, dear, will guide me
Into the morning light
You are lovely tonight
Lay here beside me
I see the rest of my lifeWith you

A whirwind last couple months

OK so I know it has been a long time since my last post. Since October DJ and I celebrated our one year anniversary!!! It was a pretty calm day. We went to the park and with Marci and James and the puppies. We just kinda chilled and it was the most perfect day. I wouldn't do it any other way. The ring below was the present DJ had gotten me. Its a anniversary band, not an engagement ring, sorry. But we had picked out another one before and when he saw this one he traded it in without me knowing. I was so surprised and I loved it so so so much!!! I didn't have a picture of me wearing of it so i just posted this one. I love him so much and now we are going on a year and a half!! It's crazy how fast time is going by. We have talked about getting married but I think we are going to hold off for awhile in attempts to deal with school and what not.

Christmas and the holidays were pretty hectic too. DJ and I spent the holidays apart again this year which I didn't like. Next year I'm hoping we will have different plans. I got snowed in at my parents house. New Years Marci, James, DJ, the Dogs, and I went to Marci's Dad's house in Utah and spent a couple days their which was fun. New Years eve we were at the Johnson's house for a fun night of games and good times.

All the girls On New Years
Julie Lamont and I
Aren't we cute??



After a very much need couple weeks of no school Jan 12th I was back in the swing of things. I'm only take 13 credits this semester and its three history classes and a political science class. Along with this I am applying to the Education Program (wish me luck), and competing in BPA doing different competitions. I am also working about 30 hours a week. This is why I never update this thing! But I wouldn't trade any of it in. I have been blessed with an amazing set of friends and a boyfriend who treats me like a queen. Until Next Time :)
