Bachelorette Party...Viva Las Vegas


Livin' it up in the city of "sin" due to the timing of the wedding and hectic schedules we went on Thursday night. No worries though we can have a good time no matter what night of the week. Of course we decorated the room.
At this age in our lives a lot of us are getting married so rather than re-buying and throwing away the decorations each time, these decorations have seen many parties and more in the future. To make sure the bride feels as special as possible make sure she has things to set her apart a sash and a crown are the best. The day after the party when everybody is ready to leave still make sure she is special we had a bride "bedazzled" tank to wear around on our way out of town. 
Brooke and I ready to go out!
Always looking for a reason to buy a new dress
Vegas is always fun to visit and more fun to leave, I wonder when I'll be the one wearing the sash?!

Shreddin The Gnar


My uncle and his fiancé came to visit from California to take part in the "Greatest Snow on Earth" at our local ski resort Brian Head. They had recently gone snowboarding in Lake Tahoe and I was hoping that we could prove that Utah deserves the snow title. The drive up was beautiful and gave me hope for a great day of boarding. Not to mention that the prices here made the entire trip worth it, especially to the Californians. We had a ton of 50% off coupons making a full day lift ticket only $25. The runs were sunny and not busy at all. Now I've been going to the gym for one of my classes and was expecting that would play to my advantage about not getting sore using the awkward muscles of snowboarding. Well the next day I was hurtin stairs became my biggest enemy. I used to snowboard every weekend had a pass and loved every minute of it. We were all hanging out I was thinking that everyone would be in my same boat, apparently not at all I was the weakling. All in all the day was awesome and the hurt was worth it!
Taking a breather on the hill!

On a side note we stopped at a gas station to get some snacks for the day and ran into these beauts...Double Sided AIRHEADS!!!

grrr baby very grrr!

So my sister looks like a super model all the time in this occasion I actually assisted with the look. She has ridiculously long beautiful hair and long legs. She was getting ready for "Sweethearts" a high school girls choice dance, I had the day off and had to be a part of process. I never like to miss the moments that 20 years from now will be a memory we talk about. Anyways to the good stuff, I got the honor of doing her HAIR! She is very particular about her hair and didn't go through the experience without a fight.

 How do you think it turned out? I feel pretty proud :)

Her dance team went in a group to the dance and they all wore they cheetah fedoras in their pictures she looked so grown up and lovely!

Love...was in the air!

Valentine's came and went and I never got around to showing you the fun things I did to celebrate. I used some ideas from Pinterest to make something heartfelt for my boyfriend. I love the microwave popcorn I found at Wal-Mart for only $1. It was perfect to hold all the goodies I gave him. So much convenience and I always love a new great idea!

Heartbreak at Candlestick

**Patrick Willis pumping us up before the game!**
Sunday, bloody sunday. The San Francisco 49ers have broken my heart. They came a long way this season and gave me more hope and bragging rights than I have in years being a forever faithful niners fan. I was wearing red and getting loud, but they must've needed something more than I could yell at the TV because in overtime they submitted to the dreaded NY Giants. Many people may think "it's just football", NO! It's not just football it is in fact something that brings my family together, links me to where my roots are, and gives me a reason to scream for joy and agony all at once! I love my 49ers and I will never back down to anyone that talks smack about them. I can honestly say that this is the proudest they have made me. Next season we'll be back with revenge in our hearts and experience to back it up. I love my niners that will never change just thought after years of them showing up for me I could give them a shout out on my blog!

Thank You 4 A Great Season!

Ciao!


Benvenuti!
(welcome)
I am so excited to start this blog about the things I love. Eating well in college can be tough, but not taking care of yourself during school can be even more detrimental so it's a matter of balance and making time for something that will save you time and keep you from being sick at the most inconvenient times. 

I love my crockpot and I think that it is under utilized in many homes. My belief is that it was designed for college students leaving in the morning for classes to have a nice meal right when they get home. Don't worry I realize how hectic the mornings can be. I personally have to drag myself out of bed and barely run into class on time only to not stop rushing the rest of the day. Someone once told me that the more time you make for yourself in the morning relieves stressful mornings. If you get up 15 minutes earlier have a meal planned out and put it together in the crock pot that's one less thing you have to worry about throughout the day. The crockpot has encouraged me to truly think about time management and makes the transition a lot smoother. 

I can't wait to discover new recipes perfect for college students and their schedules and share them with all of my followers.
