Super Model Lyla

Being the good Auntie I am I have taught Lyla how to pose for pictures! Since she was two years old I have been showing her all the different faces and poses she could make with her face. My sister-in-law, Erin, says she always thanks me for teaching her little girl to pose. At times Lyla can look like a total diva, but we still love this cute little girl!

I love this little girl to pieces!! When I was little my Auntie Terri used to say "Auntie is?" and I would reply "Pretty and smart!" I have started this saying with Lyla and use it quite a bit! Spending time with her is great! I love going to the movies with her or go out to lunch because she has so many "grown up" things to tell me (yes, she likes to be a grown up). 

Lyla-Jayne I love you! Thanks for spending so much time with your Auntie =)

I am a HORRIBLE blogger...

...I haven't blogged for almost a whole entire year! I can't believe it. My goal is to start doing better at this whole blogging thing. So far life has been great! I graduated and now I'm officially a college student. I'm going to Utah Valley University and love every minute of it. Actually rewind. Next week is finals, so this week is lots of studying which I am not loving very much. I can't wait for Christmas break to come up!

I love you all!

Valentine's Date

The day started out great! Nicole and I made breakfast for Seth and Tanner. We made waffles, sausage, and bacon. The boys were pretty happy about having their girlfriends make breakfast since Nicole and I have NEVER done that before hehe. After breakfast while Nicole and I cleaned the boys were playing NCAA football so they had a fun time =)

 Nicole made this awesome centerpiece!

After the boys left I went straight to the mall! This is a trick I have done several times... I go to Nordstroms and ask the makeup people if I can sample their makeup. I got my makeup and cover up by Bare Minerals! They did a great job..... and it was all free so yay for me! I got to look all dressed up for the Roof in Salt Lake.

On our way to Salt Lake!

Thanks to Ty and Sina for helping me pick out my fabulous dress in this picture!

Finally eating dinner!

The date was so much fun! One thing that made everything great is having my whole family, cousins and all, to help me find a dress =) thanks everyone!
