'twas the first night of December, when all through the city...

...all the Christmas lights were shining, so magical and pretty!

So, as most of you may have heard on the radio as of late...
It's the most wonderful and magical time of the year.

And in the city, the magic is truly brought to life at temple square.

 

Christ is the light of our life, and what I love so much about temple square, is the way those lights reflect him. The lights completely encompass the temple and bring LIFE and COLOR to the white winter nights.
Just as Christ does to OUR lives.

 

The season is beautiful. Lovers walk the streets,

some hand in hand.

SOME... huddled for warmth.

Ahhhh

I love... LOVE.

I can't say that I have ever been IN LOVE before, but one day I will be just that.

And on a cold winter day in December when that long anticipated day arrives.

My Guy... 

...AND I

will go to the loveliest place on earth!

....

We'll hold each others mitten-covered hands,

we'll laugh with JOY about everything, of course.

And will quite possibly wipe a few tears at the nativity scene.

But most of all we will be

TRULY

MADLY

and quite

DEEPLY

in LOVE on that beautiful Winter night.

With Eachother

With the Gospel

and

With our Life Together.

Happy December

Bring Light to someones life this holiday season!

Snaps from Thanksgiving Madness

Yoo Hoo! is that you in there?!

Yeah... I know I am still not doing so well at documenting my life... But let me tell you something....

I AM HOME FOR THE THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY'S!! 

Am I excited?...... ummmm.... Yes. Yes I am.

Let me tell you a story.. about my last 48 hours.... its funny.

I was on my way with some friends to Washington to spend thanksgiving with their family...
and then... on Saturday I would head to Oregon to take wedding pictures for my dear friends at the temple there.

So there we were... Driving through the Blizzard that the News had been warning about all day... and then we came to good old Snowville.
The next 24 hours consisted of:
-10 degree and below temperatures.
-Stocking up on food, water, tissues, sprite, saltines, etc. from the flying J.
-Calls to every relative of relatives that we knew in the area or around it.
-A night spent at ALMOST a strangers house
(The Aunt and Uncle of Haylee's Sisters Sister-In Law....) .... Yeah Pretty Ridiculous.

At the lovely home of the WONDERFUL Nessen's, we were fed dinner, watched some TV, Played the piano, sang, and then at the end of the day SJ, Haylee, and I all retired to the awesome queen sized air mattress of which we fought over the entire night.

You see... There were three of us... Which made it quite the theatrical experience the entire night. If either of us who slept on the outside moved.. it would BOUNCE the person on the otherside RIGHT off the bed.
Haha can you IMAGINE!?

ANYWAYS... Long story short...
The next morning we were fed breakfast and then after several episodes of car trouble, several prayers, two conference talks on faith and gratitude, and two different goodbyes to the Nessen's... we were driven back to Draper, Utah where we met up with my Uncle at a mexican restaurant and were taken back to Salt lake city..

HOLY COW, I know.
My life is an adventure.

Today is Thanksgiving, and BOY am I grateful.

The Lord kept me safe this week.

He loves me.

You too.

I have a wonderful family.

Wonderful friends.

I go to an amazing school and are surrounded by incredible people.

Overall I have a wonderful LIFE.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

XOXO

Fancy meeting you here... It's been a while

Dear friends, Hello.
I DO believe I underestimated the busy-ness of my schedule this year.
And while my life in the wonderful city of the Great Salt Lake moves quickly...
my blog has sat still.
I promise I will try to do better.

A night at the Symphony with the classy ladies.
