SF: Day 1

I spent my first two days in SF with my oldest sister, Danielle - and boy does she know how to party! Dani is one of the most enthusiastic people I know, and she is a blast to travel with because she will jam pack the day with never-ending adventures & awesomeness. Seriously - I flew in at 7:30 AM, and from sun-up til sundown we were having a blast!
The first thing we did was ride the cable cars.
And model, of course.
I loved riding through the city and looking at all of the beautiful buildings!
 We rode the cable cars down to Ghiradelli Square, but first stopped at a cool boat dock.
Then we enjoyed the deliciousness of Ghiradelli Square.
After that, we went through Golden Gate park down to Crissy Fields, and biked across the bridge! This was quite a hilarious adventure. First off, it was SO windy I thought I was going to blow over. Second off, people would NOT move to let us pass by! I was like, for real? I'm biking right toward you and we have eye contact and there is clearly a space off to the right, but you're just going to stand there?
After biking across the bridge we went to the darling little town of Sausalito. We ate delicious food,  perused through the shops, frolicked by the fountain, etc. etc.

'Twas such a grand day! At sundown, we headed up north to Calistoga. The next day was filled with camping, sunbathing, going to the spa (!), and enjoying the beautiful vineyards! Stay tuned for pictures from SF: Day 2!

That's fun to say

Franciscoooooo was a blast. The best. My fav.
 There were boats.
And bridges.
And bizarrely fun attractions.
 And besties. And Brandon (not pictured).
J & I had such a wonderful vacation. It was so nice to get away and go on an adventure together. We were hosted by the very best - Dani B and the Hightowers - and have lots of fun stories to tell... Coming soon to a computer near you!

I love my Job!

Earlier this week, the company I work for gave us a paid day off - to go have fun!
Can life get any better?! 
We had a company morale activity up Provo Canyon.
 There was volleyball.
 Picnics.
 Oh! Did I mention J-Dawgs catered?!
 AND - there was a ZIPLINE!
 WEEEEEE!
 We were pretty high up there.
 And it was a beautiful day!
I love my life!

OH - and tomorrow I am flying out to SAN FRANCISCO (again, I love my job! This is a company expense-paid trip!). Justin will join me on Saturday and we will frolic over the weekend with Dani and Laura+Brandon+Landon! Franciscooooo, that's fun to say!

Half a Year

Yesterday we hit our 6 month mark, and we went out and celebrated in the perfect way! To start off, we went on a date to our favorite place - Color Me Mine! 
J & I have made so many fun things here, it is definitely a place full of many memories together - not to mention this was where J proposed to me! This was the first time we had been since we got married, and it was wonderful to be back in there painting together
After Color Me Mine I was craving something sweet, and it just so happens that we had a $15 gift card to Cold Stone (thanks Madz!). We swung by, and may or may not have spent the entire gift card in one sitting... (no judging) Ice cream has and always will be my first second love
Then, we were off to the Scera theater to see Tarzan - the Musical! I LOVE plays! Whenever we go to the Scera, our tradition is to order a pizza and bring it in with us:
Tarzan was such a fun play - "You will be in my Heart" is the song that J & I first danced to as husband and wife, and it was special to be cuddled up together 6 months later and be reminded of our wedding day. 
 All in all, it was a pretty perfect day filled with all of my favorite things. Marrying Justin is the best choice I have ever made, and I am happier every single day of my life because I am with him. 

Field of Dreams




Seriously though - For the beauty of the earth!!! Last night J suggested we go out and take pictures, and I could not have been happier! It had been a while since I last busted out my camera, and it was so nice to get back behind the lens. I love taking pictures, and last night was absolutely GORGEOUS!

Life is but a Dream...

When you spend every day with your favorite human, life truly is a dream.
Spontaneous Swimming, Temple Trips & Scooter Basketball
Sun Soaking, Picnics, Dress up, & Parks
My love.
