we moved.

Suprise! We moved to Brigham City about a month ago. It's so funny how you can fall in love with such a cute old small town. We live about 5 blocks from the new temple. Our ward is AWESOME! Everyone is so friendly and happy. I was worried about not having a mall or a not a whole lot of stores around, but honestly I haven't missed it. Dave has been home for about 1/4th of the time since our move. He's been busy with traveling. So its been all up to me with the whole moving thing and not to brag, but I did one hell of a job. My only complaint is I busted my left knee. It still hurts, but its a small price to pay not having anyone help move (Accept on moving day. Thanks moms and dads, you're the best) so here's what you all have been waiting for... our new pad! Its a tiny bit under 900 sq ft. We got new carpet and flooring and of course fresh paint. There was no hole limit, so my friend chelsee and I decked out the place in under an hour, believe it or not. The picture of the mountains is our living room view.

Thought I'd share my Fav.. Brian Regan - All By Myself

Namaste

Lately I have picked up a new hobby. Yoga. I am getting super flexible and I feel so much happier and carry good vibes and it's just fantastic! Last time I went in for a zone, my friend recommended it to me. I thought it was lame and totally not a workout. PSH! Oh was I wrong. In fact, already 7 lbs lost wrong. It has me sweating the first 3 minutes. Sometimes in the morning, I will yoga outside with the sunrise, and in the evening with the sun setting. It it so beautiful!!!It's such a relaxing workout, so I do it like twice or even 3 times a day. (Just because I want to keep wearing my cool yoga outfits and I don't want to change back into hot clothes, blah!)And the thing that compliments a nice workout (or at anytime)is a cool cup of green tea!

Daily Routine

Lately I've been getting so many compliments on my face and make-up. So I thought I'd share my "secrets" with you. Every morning and night I wash my face with a warm wash cloth and a pump of Cetaphil. It's a little expensive, but it lasts a long time and works the best that I've seen.

At night I will massage my face with Olay Regenerist micro-sculpting cream. I feel like my face can still breathe with moisturizer on at night. And I love that it can help prevent some wrinkles in the long run.

Next, I use a Face Primer by Sephora. This stuff just evens out your face if its red or splotchy. And it closes your pours so you can't see blackheads and your face looks clear and beautiful!

After that, I use Bare Minerals for make-up.

For my skin tone, I use medium foundation, warmth bronzer to make my skin look sunkissed and fresh, whatever blush and eye shadow I feel matches my mood of the day, eye liner just on my upper eyelid (were going for beautiful here, no raccoon business)and mascara, then a veil to keep the powders locked and stay looking fresh the rest of the day, and of course lip gloss with a tint. I LOVE the lip glosses from Bath and Body Works.

And that's what I do! I hope that has helped you with your routine.

06.25.12 was our 3rd anniversary. It was sooo fantastic!

The day before we adopted a dog.

His name is Pippin and he is 1 year old. He is 1/2 Shih-tzu and 1/2 Schnauzer and 100% ADORABLE!!! He is sooo good! No accidents in the house, he is the easiest dog to train, and he listens! I have to tell him no only once and he doesn't do it again and he has such a funny attitude. We love him already!!

The day of our anniversary Dave had to work, so we partied hard after he got off. We went to the Melting Pot in SLC and had an AMAZING dinner. We have never been there and I've always wanted to go. needless to say, it was a life changing experience. not really, but whatever. We had fun. Then we booked it to the movie theater to see Brave. It was such a cute show! I would totally go see it again. I was doing sooo good with pictures until now.. I'm at my parents house and don't have the rest of them. I guess you can use your imagination. :)

I know I've been so bad at posting. Thats because I've been gone and I was being lazy. SO! The past few weeks... The job search is taking longer than expected. I seem to be in a catch 22. They want people with experience. I have 5 weeks experience chairside and 3 years in the health field but I guess its not the exact kind they're looking for. So while thats been going on, Dave went to Texas for 2 weeks. That was a total shocker. We had NO clue he didn't need to be licenced to work there. He loved the area. So maybe someday we'll move there for a while. We both dont like it when he travels. it seemed like forever when we get to see each other. BOO! Which brings up a new subject. We might be MOVING to Arizona! The Phoenix/Mesa area to be exact. Cases havent been coming in in this area for Dave's career, so we might relocate. Were both kind of excited and hoping we do. I have family down there so we wouldn't feel totally stranded. We will know for sure Monday and from there we will make our decision. If we decide not to, Dave will keep looking for other security jobs in the area so we don't have to move. We have also been to Bear Lake this summer. The water is still soooooooo cold! But it was a super fun weekend. We went shooting for my first time. I did so good! I got 10/12 shots. Daves dad was sure impressed (John Bender fist pump). We also went on boat rides, water ski rides, and were lazy beach bums. It was all so much fun! We were even able to spend quality time with Daves parents. Which dosnt happen often enough. When were home on Friday nights we always go to Mission: Improvable. It is SO much fun. We die laughing every time, and it goes by way too fast. You definatly get your $5's worth. If you ever want to go, let me know and we can carpool or something. Peace out!

Sandman skips my house.

Ever since I was a little girl its been so hard for me to fall asleep. Every night I have a battle with my brain to shut off for the night. My mom would actually give me some of her problems and I'd solve them for her. Lately its been really bad. I mean I'm up till 2 or 3. I think about countless things. Like; what chores I need to do, what places I need to call the next day for interviews, places I need to go, ladies I need to visit teach and if I'm in charge of the lesson, what treat to make my ladies. Also if im being everything Dave needs me to be. What debt we have left, how soon can we pay that off. Why am I having pain in these areas and whats causing them. Did I work out enough tonight. What recipes should I use with this weeks produce from Bountiful Baskets. Will I have 14 nursery kids all to myself again on sunday? Thats seriously too many. Are my friends happy, if not what can I do to help them. Wondering if we should save up money to buy a house, or do the whole adoption or fertility thing next. And the list goes on and on. On top of that, my phone is being retarded. Im so greatful dave called in me a brand new phone (at no cost to us) and hopefully ill get it by tuesday. But you know how that can go. Anyways! I wish you all better sleep than im getting. If you have any tricks or tips please leave a comment!
