You know, I've never really felt the need to start a blog mostly because I feel so routine and uninteresting. But over the last few years (sadly yes, I've been following blogs for quite sometime) I've realized how much I enjoy reading about my friends lives and discovering the most fabulous blogs that I absolutely adore! After much pondering and debate I decided that its time to keep in touch with those I love so dear. I've come to accept that I'm a terrible phone talker, and if I'm lucky, get a simple lunch date with my girlfriends when I'm home (which is not enough). So here is my attempt to let you all in on what's going on with me. I guess it's not fair that I get to to know about all of you without me giving anything in return! So today I thought I'd let you all know what I've been up to for the last three years of my life since I left home...
I am currently living in Provo, Utah. I have been nannying for the same family since the day I moved here. I started taking care of 4 kids but it has now turned into 5. That may sound like a lot, but for most of the day the majority of the kids are in school so I just hang out with the little one. She is an absolute doll face. Here name is Danni, she's two and is capable of melting my heart every single day. I love my job. I feel blessed to work with such a great family who, over the years, now feels like my own. I attend Utah Valley University. I have an undecided major which is quite frustrating, but recently I am leaning towards event planning. If any of you know my mother, you're familiar with her amazing ability to throw together a party like it's no one's business. Well, I've been told that I'm a chip off the ol' block and I know I would really enjoy doing something like that.
I have been dating a boy for the past year now. I can't believe it's been that long! Time flies when you're having fun, right??? His name is Jason Widdison and he recently graduated from BYU with a major in International Relations. He is preparing for law school and is probably the most intelligent man I know. He makes me laugh harder then anyone else and is absolutely perfect for me. I'm happy to tell you that I am ridiculously in love and feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful person.
In the past three years I have traveled to New York (twice), DC (twice), Mexico, volunteered with orphans just south of the border, went skydiving, ran a marathon, two half marathons and a ragnar relay, attended many weddings of my closest friends, met the most wonderful people who I will cherish for a life time, worked hard and hopefully played harder.
Simply-I absolutely love life. I have a passion for experiencing new things and visiting new places. I love my friends and family more than anything in the whole world and I truly look forward to what each new day has to offer me.
Hopefully that gives you a small glimpse into my life. I'm happy, healthy, and ready for all adventures that will come my way.
