Who had the best weekend ever?? Me!

The highlight of the holiday weekend last weekend was definitely celebrating 6 kick ass months with my amazing boyfriend, Dave! Our weekend really began Thursday morning. Dave came with me Thanksgiving morning to support me while I ran a 5k for the Utah Food Bank. We went home after that and got me set up on World of Warcraft. Yes, it's true. I'm playing WOW. Lol. A few hours later we went to my aunt's for Thanksgiving. Friday night I believe we just relaxed a bit. Saturday night was our 6 month anniversary celebration. We went to Sushi at Water Moon (YUM!!!!!!!!!!) and then to see Caroline's Spine play at Club Vegas. It was one of my favorite nights in a LONG time! I love Dave so much and I can't imagine my life without him. He's the best thing that has ever happened to me. Sunday we got up at went skiing (and snowboarding for him). It was a nasty day weather-wise but with some help from Dave (letting me use his equipment while he fended for himself lol) I was able to stay warm and we rode for a good 5 hours. So fun! We came home Sunday and watched tv and went to bed early. Sounds like the best weekend ever hu? Cuz it was!!! Lol. Dave and I have so much fun together, he makes me laugh and smile all day and night and I love him for it. Thank you honey for everything! I can't wait till we get to celebrate one year!!! =D

On another note, I am so very excited for Christmas this year, as always! I celebrate Christmas because it is a family tradition. It is so fun to get involved in the community at this time of year and to enjoy the holiday season with everyone around you. Christmas is just magical. To me, Christmas has nothing to do with a God or a guy named Jesus. I thought I would share things I love about Christmas that to me, have nothing to do with religion. Here they are:

• Spending a couple of months looking for gifts that make my friends and family smile and know that they are loved
• Sipping on hot chocolate with marshmallows while decorating a fresh pine tree with ornaments that bring back so many memories
• Visiting Santa's Reindeer at Thanksgiving Point
• Singing Christmas songs you've known and sang with your family since you could first talk
• Volunteering at places like the food bank, to help others have a happy Christmas too
• Cooking all day to sit down to a delicious meal with my family I love dearly
• Everyone being together to celebrate
• Christmas baking!!! (cookies and banana bread are my personal specialty)
• Christmas Crafts
• Christmas lights
• Wrapping Presents

There are so many more that I'm forgetting, I'm sure, but I just love Christmas time so much! It's sad when it's over...but then it's onto New Years, setting New Years goals, and Valentine's Day!!! Lol. Maybe I just love every holiday, ok? Ok. I hope everyone has a good weekend!!! =D

The Best Ever!

My honey and I celebrated 5 awesome months together a few days ago. We have seriously had about a lifetime of fun in only 5 months. He is the best thing that's ever happened to me. Here is a little recap of our amazing adventures...

I can't even wait for all of our fun yet to come! I'm so excited to spend the holidays with him and with his son, Kayden. I got my first season ski pass this year so I can get out on the mountain with him every weekend. He snowboards for Team Utah, so he will be boarding all winter. We always have so much fun together and I enjoy nothing more than having him by my side. I sure do love him!!

Things Change

The summer turns into fall
The numbers on the clock
People all around us
Traffic patterns
The green leaves change to red, orange, and yellow
Where you call home
The living to the dead
Those you call friends
Things that strike your interest

If I could shout it from the rooftops, I would say "DON'T EVER CHANGE!!!" Please.

Dreams

Ok, so I think I am going to start writing about my dreams that I have. I LOVE dreams. They make me giggle. I have had a lot of funny dreams lately but I'll start with the one I had last night.....My friend from work, Rich, called me up and told me he had just bought a new house and wanted me to come see it asap. So, I arrive at his new house and it's actually my house.....(the house I live in with my step-dad right now). I was like.......okayyyy........Lol. So he goes to show me around and I see spiders here and there and the funny part is that I am about to point out to Rich that there are spiders in his new house, but I stop myself and I think "I don't want him to feel bad about his new house because he's so excited, so I'll just keep it to myself." Lol. Why do I love dreams so much? This one was actually quite mild compaired to dreams I've had the past couple of months.

So...I had the idea to look online to see if there are explanations of things in your dreams, and of course there is. We're talking about the friggin interweb here! It says this about having a house come up in your dream...

To see a house in your dream, represents your own soul and self...To dream that a house was broken into (which to me, was sort of what seemed to be happening) suggests that you are feeling violated...or it could indicate that some unconscious material is attempting to make itself known...There are some aspects of yourself that you have denied. Hmmm interesting.

Then I looked to see what the spiders could have meant and it said this...Perhaps you want to keep your distance and stay away from a tempting and alluring situation.....The spider is also symbolic of feminine power....

I just thought this was cool =) if you want to see what different parts of your dreams mean go to...http://www.dreammoods.com/

Have a great weekend everyone! Sweet dreams =)

You are all of my favorite things and more

You feel like a sandy beach under my feet,

Like an entire day at the spa, only better.

You feel like the moments when you realize you have a friend who would do anything for you.

You feel like butterflies,

Like watching a lightening storm from the point of the mountain. Breathtaking.

You feel like arriving at the airport for a long awaited vacation.

You feel like words that I cannot think of or put together.

You feel like happiness I've never known or thought existed,

Like fairy tales and princesses.

You feel just right, like running through the sprinklers in 110 degree weather,

Like a warm bath with bubbles piled high after a long day.

You feel like tears of joy,

The kind I constantly have to fight.

You feel like my future, my forever, my happily ever after.

You feel like all these things and more,

And I am never coming down.

I love you too.
