i can't say it enough...

my dad is amazing. he gives the best advice. he loves me no matter what. he challenges my ideas and pushes me to do better and learn more. he really is the smartest person i know. i can go to him anytime for a father's blessing, and he'll have a white shirt and tie on within mins to "rescue" me. he is so silly! he holds me when i cry. he comes into the salon to have me cut his hair. he fills my tank with gas when its low. he reads the newspaper everyday and reads all the important things i should know out loud. he hates my red hair and wants me to be his little blondie. he spoils me. we watch golf on sunday afternoons and has forgiven me for still cheering for tiger. he's a keeper. i love him.

crunchy leaf.

It's that time...back to school...

Today I was thinking about how much i'm gonna miss being in Utah this fall. I've been there for the past 2 falls and really loved it...until the snow came. It is so beautiful there with all the colorful leaves, and the crunching under you're feet. :/ I really am bummed about it. I guess I'm just gonna have to go visit lots.

Vegas, please cool down a little bit...i have boots calling my name from the plastic bin out in the garage.
come september, im bustin em out...

look at these beauties...i think i need them...

muhh girl.

T-Swift knows whats up...

"To me, “FEARLESS” is not the absence of fear. It’s not being completely unafraid. To me, FEARLESS is having fears. FEARLESS is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, FEARLESS is living in spite of those things that scare you to death. FEARLESS is falling madly in love again, even though you’ve been hurt before. FEARLESS is walking into your freshmen year of high school at fifteen. FEARLESS is getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again… even though every time you’ve tried before, you’ve lost. It’s FEARLESS to have faith that someday things will change. FEARLESS is having the courage to say goodbye to someone who only hurts you, even if you can’t breathe without them. I think it’s FEARLESS to fall for your best friend, even though he’s in love with someone else. And when someone apologizes to you enough times for things they’ll never stop doing, I think it’s FEARLESS to stop believing them. It’s FEARLESS to say “you’re NOT sorry”, and walk away. I think loving someone despite what people think is FEARLESS. I think allowing yourself to cry on the bathroom floor is FEARLESS. Letting go is FEARLESS. Then, moving on and being alright…That’sFEARLESS too. But no matter what love throws at you, you have to believe in it. You have to believe in love stories and prince charmings and happily ever after. That’s why I write these songs. Because I think love is FEARLESS." - Taylor Swift

New Hampshire 2010

Our family trip to New Hampshire this year was SO much fun!! even more fun then last year! My uncle bought a house about 2 years ago in New Hampshire at Rye Beach, and it is just beautiful! We had a wonderful little reunion with about 25-30 people there!! aunts, uncles, cousins, and grammy! We went to the beach everyday, caught a Red Sox game at the famous Fenway Park (SO FUN), went on some nice jogs, ate tons of seafood, had our very own lobster feast, and just hung out around the house and watched movies.
I took loads of pictures but here are a few favorites...







while there i cut my cousin jack's hair and can i just tell you how cute this little boy is? he runs around the house barefoot and his feet slap against the floor. you can here him coming from across the house. haha, he calls himself "jackjack", he has an obsession with shoes. he'll try on all the shoes by the door and walk around in them! and he's a sweet heart, and loves to give kisses. Anyway! We gave him a popsicle to distract him while i was cutting his hair...worked like a charm. but after a while he was covered in it, sticky and hairy!! im thinking about framing this pic and putting it on my station...lol, "cutest client ever award"



i went for a little jog one day when it was cloudy and we didn't go to the beach and all of a sudden it started pouring rain. It was such a blast. i've never been in rain like it. it was huge drops, and just pouring. i was soaked. while i was running, i just was laughing...it was so fun. haha


fun right?? can't wait till next year already!

my theme song lately...

Live like you Believe

You have felt the warmth of the fire
You have seen a glimmer of light
Its someing that you have been missing inside
Something that you have been longing to find
Hold on to the yearning
And wherever you are on your journey

Live like you believe
Live like you know
It's one sure way
Your faith will grow
Listen to your heart
Search in your soul
And you'll find
The strength that you need
His light, the gift of His peace
When you live like you believe

There are things you'll have to let go
And you might feel, you're just hanging on
When you find yourself alone and afraid
Questioning all the choices you've made
Hold on the burning
He's leading you thru the journey

Live like you believe
Live like you know
It's one sure way
Your faith will grow
Listen to your heart
Search in your soul
And you'll find
The strength that you need
His light, the gift of His peace
When you live like you believe

Hold on to the yearning
And wherever you are on the journey

Live like you believe
Live like you know
It's one sure way
Your faith will grow
Listen to your heart
Search in your soul
And you'll find
The strength that you need
His light, the gift of His peace
When you live like you believe
