10 Years of Cheese

Guys. The 90's. For real. I've been catching up on all the T.V. shows I missed when they were actually on T.V. (Thank goodness for Netflix)...

Buffy, Charmed, Friends...how great are these? 

  

Not to mention: Boy Meets World, Full House, Fresh Prince, The Amanda Show, 
Sabrina the Teenage Witch...oh good times, good times.


I'd even settle for the fashion if we could bring back the cheese of 90's television.

My Girl Amy and also I Love Photoshop

Last week, my friend Amy came over and we had a little Photo Shoot for a project she is working on...I can't wait for you to see it! While she was there I asked if she would pretty please be featured in my #secretproject aka my Magazine Project. I'm doing a spread on women and things they love about themselves, because I think it is so important to remember to love yourself and to not be shy about telling people the things you love about you!

She graciously agreed. :) I met Amy in Junior High and we stayed friends through High School. She is such a FUN girl. She always has a great story for me. :) We lost touch a bit when we both went to college and then we recently realized through Facebook and Instagram the we still have a TON in common. It was SO great to get together with her again, take pictures, craft, and catch up on life. :)

It was a rainy, dark cloud day, so I wasn't sure how the pictures would turn out, 
but you guys: Photoshop is ah-maze-ing!

I added the before picture so you can see the magic. Amy looks gorgeous in both, but so much brighter and warmer in the after. :)  What a babe!

whoop! One step closer to #ampersandmagazine coming to life!

My Friday Adventure

This weekend I decided to make the trek up to Logan to see my cute sister and help her move back home for the summer. She just finished her 2nd year at Utah State and made it into the Didactic (dietetics) program! I'm so proud of her! She's grown so much already and is the sweetest girl you will ever meet!
We packed up the cars, had lunch at (my favorite place) Pita Pit, and then played a little lost and found to (my other favorite place) Zeppe's for some delish Gelata. YUM!

 


Then, since I was so close, I HAD to go over and visit my darling Ashley and Lucy! Just look at these chubby-toes painted PINK! Oh my gosh! So adorable! She's grown up so much since I last saw her! I wish I could just take her home with me! :) It was so good to chat with Ashley and catch up! We will be friends for life! She is so good to me and always gives me such great advice! Love you, boo.


THEN, I of course had to go to Tremonton to see my girl, Naomi who was GRADUATING the next day! (i had to work, :(....) Man, I love this girl! She totally understands me so much! Most of our conversations go:
 "I don't know how to explain it...but it's like...well--you understand, right?" "I'm the same way! I get it!" 
She is the bomb dot com, guys, fo real. And she makes me feel so good about myself. I never feel dumb or bad around her, she has such a kind heart and I swear we were best friends in heaven too. :) And she had the sweetest gift waiting for me when I got there! She just KNOWS that gift giving is my love language. To know someone thought of you enough to put a present together for you is, to me, a huge deal. And Naomi gets that. and I love her so much!  I got to see a tour of her darling house too! She has made it look so darling and I'm so happy she has a place to call her own! 


What a fun and exhausting Friday! :) SO worth it. I'm so lucky to have so many TRUE friends in my life who love me for me. Sometimes you just need reassurance that you are loved so that you can keep going in life--and I'm so grateful to everyone in my life that help me feel so blessed and loved!
