As of late, I have felt reasons to CELEBRATE:


Here's to seeing the most glorious word: “PASS”—yes!  I never knew that word could actually make me cry.



And Here's To:

Brown rice for breakfast



Hawaiian beaches, malasadas, books, and juvenile delinquency with my mom and dad J










The very short shorts that the cross-country skater man in our neighborhood wears during his daily workout.  Yeah,  I wouldn't even think to take a picture of that!





My sister that makes me laugh many times a day.




Going to the gym almost everyday
…followed by my reward and main motivation.  A 32-oz Diet Coke.



Spaceship footies and T-shirts for bed.






Indulging in homemade soup and hot rolls, pot roast and potatoes.   AND cookies 'n cream pizookies.  Those are a new fav.



Working at White House Black Market.






My most faithful cuddler, Lexi.
           



Watching scary movies with my mom and sister that scare us so much that sleeping alone is out of the question.



My mom’s most reliable words, “Do you have something for your lips?”


My dad’s even more reliable words , “how are you going to pay me back for that?” 

My “seasonal" love affair with Justin.  Although you might have let Jessica Biel down, you have always come through for me this time of year.  Bleached locks...now that's what I'm talking 'bout!!





P.S. Something even better than Justin...Being sung to (most excellently) in my ear :)



Motivational words of encouragement.

            “I speak to you this morning not only about a little more effort, a little more self-discipline, a little more consecrated effort in the direction of excellence in your studies.  I speak of it also in terms of your lives.
            This is the great day of preparation for each of you.  It is the time of beginning for something that will go on as long as you live.  I plead with you: Don’t be a scrub! Rise to the high ground of excellence.  You can do it.  You may not be a genius.  You may be lacking in some skills.  But you can do better than you are doing.
            Be excellent in every way.”  Gordon B. Hinckley



            And Here’s To the next brave new steps that I’m about to take  ;)
