3. Bacon & Brown Sugar

you've done it again regina...

No, this is how it works
You peer inside yourself
You take the things you like
And try to love the things you took
And then you take that love you made
And stick it into some
Someone else's heart
Pumping someone else's blood
And walking arm in arm
You hope it don't get harmed
But even if it does
You'll just do it all again

cleaning grams house

As i was cleaning grams house earlier today, i realized... there is SO much beauty all around and i've never stopped to notice. so today, i did. i noticed the porcelain tea set...i noticed the table lamp with the fringe meag and i used to get in trouble for playing with...i noticed the grand piano with the floral piano bench...i noticed the happiness that family brings...i noticed this beautiful ballerina that great grandma made for grandma...

and i noticed how ridiculous meagan looks next to lily... haha

cloudy with a chance of meatballs

i have been trying to watch this since it came out and i finally saw this great film. if you have the means, i highly recommend watching it, it is so joyous. (and kid friendly!)

summer love

I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day;
In every thing that's light and gay.
I'll always think of you that way.

I'll find you
In the morning sun
And when the night is new.
I'll be looking at the moon,
But I'll be seeing you.

islands in the stream

i have a secret

whenever i look at the moon, it doesn't look like a moon. instead i see a face. i literally see the man on the moon. its not my fault! maybe people like ricky skaggs and feist should stop singing about this "man on the moon"

dancing queen

about twice a week i babysit for the Youngs. 3 girls, 1 boy and lots of craziness. for some reason, they are obsessed with my ipod. let me rephrase that: they are obsessed with 3 songs on my ipod; Fashion by Lady Gaga, Thriller by Michael Jackson, and Baby by Justin Bieber. wow. such diversity. but really. we dance for hours! they absolutely love it.

moving day!

dear orem,
you have so much to offer: beautiful scenery, lovely friends, a castle for me to live in, more boys, and a long drive to work of which i can sing... by myself... in the car. splendid.

more...

more minutes on my phone,
more gas in my car,
more gum just for me,
more time with the girls,
more than 5 hours of sleep (for once),
more flirting.

maybe a break-up is not so bad...
