How we met...

I remember the day very clearly...ok maybe not the actual date , it was the beginning of september. My new found Friend Lindsey Ryther had been talking about what seemed to be 2 different guys, because she called him a different name everytime she talked about him... I thought there was Carlos and Gustavo...but when i asked she told me they were the same person...I was completely confused. well one night we got EXTREMELY bored and Lindsey said, why dont we call up Carlos...I'm sure he'd let us come over and hang out because we're friends...but let's call him on your phone...( so really we're lucky he picked up) We talked to him and he said it was ok if we came over...we walked to his apartment and he came out and just sat with us on the stairs. we talked for a while... I thought he was SO CUTE and HOTT!!! he thought nothing of me. It was love at first sight for me...Nothing on his side...lol. Gustavo asked us if we wanted to watch a movie and we said why not? so we all went in and sorta watched some movie...I was having fun with the fan and not paying attention to the movie really...I'm A.D.D give me a break. eventually we left , which is a whole other story. The next day , we realized we had the same english class together...crazy!! we had it together for 2 weeks , it was a class of 18 and we had NEVER noticed each other before? anyways after finding that out we started sitting next to each other and became friends.(in his mind BAHAHA) so eventually a dance rolled around and i asked him to go...he came and we had fun... but that night i was like WHEN ARE YOU GONNA ASK ME OUT?!?! so he finally was like oh..." you wanna come over for dinner?" i was like duh...!!! at that dinner we shared our first kiss...it was pretty amazing... the rest is really history...it's been almost 13 months now...a year later and we're still madly in love...and planning a future together...the end:)

I am DYING...

Here's the summary of my day ...I went to bed at 6am this morning....woke up at 10 am this morning... i am running a full day on 4 hours of sleep...NO BUENO!!! i am dying of sleepiness... mommy wouldnt let me have a nap...i want to cry...

Ok my final decisions as far as my wedding outfit n stuff




So here is what i've decided to be my definite wedding attire and all that jazz. the hair style i wanna tweek a bit so that there are little tendrils in some places...those of ya'll who have seen the music video for Love Story, will know what i mean. this hairstyle is as close as i can get to that ;)Oh and i'm deff not gonna have that stupid ribbion :(

Missionaries!!! :)

I swear the Elders from our ward stop by our house and ask to talk to me at least every other week... not that I mind , I guess that's what happens when you make the Elders your BEST friends.. anyways , I just love how The Missionaries always managed to come when i am in my Pajamas... You see , this set is ...Better looking than most of the past Elders... well since we have 2 set's of missionaries ...wait this one is going to need a little explaining. ok here goes : our ward decided that for some reason we needed to sets of missionaries. So for awhile we had 2 sets of Elders , a cute set and a not so cute set. well transfers rolled around and they kept one cute elder and one of the not cute elders...and then transfered in a set of sister missionaries (BLAHHHH) anyways so this is how it goes down...the missionaries stop by and the cute missionary that stayed ( The one who i made friends with ..and his old companion) Well his face just LIT up into this HUGE smile when he saw me.. made me pretty happy ...anyways they just wanted to talk to me about this prayer list thing... I wish i could've invited them in because it was raining today ,but after be chastised at 11 i've been scarred for life. anyways , i've had this thing for missionaries ever since i was 2...and when i explained my delimma to my bestie liz , and she explained it like this... Missionaries have this "glow" we shall call it , that attracts everybody to them ... so Maybe that's why i've always liked Elders :)

More Pics sorry :)




So here are the pictures of the Boquets I want... the first 2 are simply the styles that i'm torn between. the third is what i want for my bridesmaids...all 5 maybe 6 of them , depending on where my Reception is :) but that style for the bridesmaids but maybe a smaller version of it ? lol the colors of the flowers totally depend on if i get my December wedding... if i dont , i'm gonna go for a spring wedding... if i have a December wedding we'll go with red flowers and such... if I Have to have a spring wedding , then we're gonna go with a Boysenberry/Maroonish color :P I know what i mean :)

Oh the Joys!!!





So ,I have so many things I want to talk about , but i guess i'll start with my deepest secret that i'm sure is no surprise to anybody... if anybody has heard me talk about My relationship with Gustavo , you'll definately know our 2 year time table...lol if you want to call it that. Just in case you havent, here's what it is basically...So Gustavo will be on his mission until August/September of 2010 maybe July/August of that year depending on if his mission Prez. will let him go a month earlier for school...(Go figure the girl who despises school would marry a guy who LOVES school)anyway he'll be back around that time , we'll be officially Engaged around Sept/Oct ? (i'm sure he'll surprise me...) (actually what would really surprise me if he stepped off the plane and proposed)lol. anyways and on December 26th 2010 , we'll get married (Everybody cross your fingers , this is the date I want and i'm sure since he loves me he'll want that too) So in all reality i'll only have i dunno 4ish months to prepare for the wedding of my dreams...(i've had alot of time to dream about it lol)well this is my secret... I secretly look at dresses and EVERYTHING... and i've got pretty much everything down to where i want to live prepped (I mean i'll have to look at the certain apartments with him later :) )I'll post the pictures of everything up later...well ok everything i have pictures for:) ok and here is the second part of what i wanted to talk about... i love my sisters , really i do. LOVE LOVE LOVE them...the downside to having 2 sisters is that the brush is always missing... clothes are borrowed... lol it's just hard, i'm going to sleep tonight with my hair not brushed because my brush is MISSING ...yes that's right my purple brush is M.I.A. It is slightly annoying.anyways that's my frustration with sisters, now for my happy news again. i LOVE music... more than anything,i feel like i can explain how i feel better through music than anything else in the world. so I love learning about music..I was talking to Gustavo's brother Santi last night and he told me about all this music i should download... I totally looked for all of it on facebook and downloaded every single song he suggested.I'm glad i'm marrying into a family who's music tastes are similar to mine ,almost identical...?(Gustavo has some...interesting...music and Santi has made me dislike Bob Marley with a passion...lol he's not bad , i just heard it for too long while Santi visited)But I loved all of the music Santi suggested last night so i'm pretty stoked. I love everything Bolivian at the moment... i'm SUPER HAPPY that the LOVE OF MY LIFE loves me just as much and wants to marry me :)Te amo Gustavo!!

Cake is GREAT!!

ok ... so not really . In all honesty i HATE cake ... but i do love me some Cake MIX... and even more weird is that i love CUPcakes...so my sisters and i are learning how to cook ( apparantly mom found it necessary ) so we made homemade chicken pot pie and decided we wanted cupcakes for dessert... We made the cupcakes and whatever mix was leftover , we ate ...and it was good . :) On a completely different note .... Colby was like " I'm from kettlecorn Kansas" to which i replied " is there really a kettlecorn Kansas?" Brett then told me " For reals there is" so i then told my family that i'm going to move there and have a kid . Brett said yeah and name him " Jimmy crackedcorn" I said that was a brilliant idea so i would have 2 boys there and name them : Jimmy Crackedcorn... and...I dont care! so when ever somebody asked me what my kids names were i could say jimmy cracked corn and i dont care!!! BAHAHAHAHA
