Lazy Sundays...

... filled with lots of pictures... are the best :)

Seriously... he is the cutest... ever!

CONGRATS....

....to Dave!!!! He is officially one of the newest members of the....

2 weeks ago we went to Hunt's gym, where Dave tried out. I watched him, along with about 18 other guys, run and bounce off a trampoline while being required to do crazy flips, ariels, and what not... while catching, passing, and pretending to dunk basketballs! The next Saturday he went to the 2nd try out where they actually used a basket ball hoop. He finally got the good news today! So if you head to a Jazz game this upcoming season... look for Dave when these guys perform :)

Art Festival

The weather lately has been driving me insane. I love summer so much and I feel like a damper has been put on it with all this rain! Really... if you think about it, we've been cheated out of close to a full month of summer! Oh well... Saturday was super fun. The sun was FINALLY out so Dave and I ate breakfast @ The Original Pancake house... and we were inspired to do so thanks to Sarah. It was delicious. Then we made our way to the Farmer's Market and looked around for a bit. After that we went swimming where we were joined by Jessie and Brinly. Dave had work that night so Brinly, Jessie, and I made our way to the Art Festival later on! It's pretty cool. We looked at art, each found the creative writer within, (especially Jessie...) and ate some super yummy food :) I love hanging out with the girls... especialy these two. They are great. It's so fun to spend a whole day with them just talking and hanging out!

A LONG anticipated day!!!

Well, for those of you who know Dave, you know he's had braces for over 2 years now! Ever since we've been together he has had braces. I remember when we first started dating everyone would ask me if it was weird to kiss someone with braces. So for all those inquiring minds wanting to know... it is not. There is no difference what-so-ever. Dave and I go to the gym pretty much every morning... and this Tuesday he told me he couldn't go because he "had to help his sister with some stuff." Little did I know he was really going to the orthodontist to have a retainer fit. Then THIS morning... he got lucky that I am lazy and didn't want to wake up early to go work out! He didn't have to come up with another cover up story for not being able to go to the gym!!! So after his appointment, he surprised me at my work today... to show me THIS......

TA DA!!!!! Doesn't he look so HANDSOME!?! I love it! And I love it even more just because I know how long he has wanted these braces off and how happy he is that they finally are!!! :) :)

One of my many loves...

Well, first off, I feel like I blog 10x more than anyone else. I promise it's pretty much cuz of boredom @ work. I really do have a life, and don't just sit at a computer to blog all day long. So if my avid blogging seems a bit crazy to you... I apologize!

Anyway... I had this thought today... I am SO thankful that I have a love for reading. I have no idea where it came from, or how I developed it. Regardless,I am thankful! I know there are a ton of people out there who share my same interest in reading, but there are also many who do not. Then there are those who DO like to read, they for some reason just don't. Since I can remember I have read, read, read, READ!!! I honestly wonder how many books I have read in my lifetime! There have been points in my life where I have been busy, therefore, not had the time to read and I can honestly say... when that happens, the fact that I am not reading a book starts to drive me crazy! I HAVE to pick up a book!

This month I have finished two books! Both of which are great and I would highly recommend! The first....

And the second...

And I just started...

I have only read a little so far but can already tell this is going to be a great one! I LOVE reading and seriously think everyone should do it!
