Anna Dearest

FINALS ARE OVER! goodbye anatomy. goodbye statistics (which i hated). goodbye joseph smith and the restoration! (which turned out to be a lot harder than i expected.) goodbye BYU! (for two weeks). people. i am so happy. now it's time for a new adventure (which you will hear about soon, promise).

now, let me just tell you about this little lady.

wowza. isn't she the prettiest?! and that handsome man with her? that's my cousin (ahem, favorite cousin). so you can imagine that i expected great things from his future wife. great things, people. fortunately, anna met all my expectations. every. single. one. and more.

you see, anna is the kind of person that you want to be like. she is kind, down to earth, and down right hilarious. seriously. just read her blog, and i guarantee you will be peeing your pants. the first time i met her, i thought, he has to marry her. she was just so natural around our family and fit right in. can you tell i just love her? because i do.

anywho, i asked anna to give me a list of ten things that make her oh-so happy.

anna: to happiness
1-Inheriting awesome family- I’m not just sucking up here, I lucked out. I love my husband’s family (immediate AND extended) and all my brothers wive’s families too. It is pretty awesome
2- Pedicures- bad day? Someone rubbing my feet and painting my toes can make my frown turn upside down. (ps don’t think I am a racist, but I prefer the Asians who don’t want to small talk. I just want to lie back, relax and not talk. It seems like the white chicks all want to chat
3. Christmas trees
4. Clean sheets
5- My nieces and nephews- they are adorable. I love hearing about them, seeing them and getting hugs from them. The good, the funny and the naughty. I love it all
6- Words of affirmation- My husband says he and I are both words of affirmation sluts… 
7- Coming home to someone- let me be cheesy ok? After a happy single life, it is even more awesome to come home to my man
8- Jeans that fit great- Not easy to find, but they feel amazing when you do
9- Sonic happy hour- A yummy drink with crunchy ice is even better half off. (2-4pm!)
10- Being done with school, for now. I love and value learning, but love coming home and not doing homework. Bliss.




you already like her now, don't you? i also asked anna to tell me her favorite song of the moment. 
here it is, “Until You”- Dave Barnes
