St. Geezy

Oh how I've missed Dixie! Tomorrow I'm gone for 5 days! I cannot wait to be in St. George, St. Geezy here I come!!!!!!

Am I asking for too much?!

So I was reading movie quotes online today. Why, I don't know..... that's beside the point, I stumbled across this little gem....

"Take love, multiply it by infinity and take it to the depths of forever.. and you still have only a glimpse of how I feel for you."

Does anyone know the movie? (NO CHEATING!)

Anyways, this is what I'm holding out for, is that asking too much?!

Finding a place...

Being home is Salt Lake is wonderful! I love all the time I get with my family and I love the Salt Lake Valley. However I feel like I've had a hard time finding my place up here. In St. George I feel like I knew who I was, I fit in with my friends, I had a job that I was good at and that I loved. Up here I just haven't found my niche yet. I was real with myself and I knew that life would be very different from how it was prior to St. George, however I didn't anticipate feeling like I didn't fit it. I don't feel that way with my family at all, but I do with the people my age. A lot of the girls my age have serious boyfriends, are engaged, or even married.... I however am no where near any of those. A lot of the people my age are also well into their schooling and know what they are doing with their lives, I however don't have that either. I feel like because of my time in St. George I missed out on bonding experiences with my friends, and I'm kind of the odd man out. I want to find somewhere up here that I just fit. I've yet to find that, I guess in essence I'm still the new kid on the block. I'm trying my best to be ok with where I am in life and realize that you only get each stage of your life once. I think back to Jamie's post about it "It won't be like this for long." I know it won't... I know I need to work on finding the good in where I am in life and realized that those things I desire will come... just not in my time!

Each day I strive to do what's right and to be the BEST Brooke that I can be. I don't know where I belong yet, but everyday I look to find it. I know good things comes to those who wait... so I'll wait, and even better then that I'll work on being ok with waiting. I'm doing my best to take everyday as it comes, and to relish in the moment, does it sound like I'm doing a good job?! Don't get me wrong I'm a very happy person, and I feel like I'm doing good things in my life. I just want to find that place where I'm happy and content. But then again maybe it's not about finding that place, but it's about making your life that place. Who knows? What I do know is that someone has a great plan for me, and this just part of that plan!

Gotta L-O-V-E the weekend!

I live for the weekend! I can't wait for it to get here and it just never seems to last long enough! This weekend wasn't anything spectacular, but boy was it fun! :) In a nutshell here is my weekend.....

Friday night after work I headed to Mike and Jamie's (which if I never get married I blame them, who has time to date with them around!?) to watch Miss Annie for the evening! Me being the fun aunt that I am didn't stick to bed time and we had a fun evening of playing together....
Saturday afternoon I met Annie Salmon at The Happy Sumo for some delicious sushi! I just love sushi and I must say that The Happy Sumo is some of the best, if not the best, sushi I've ever had. Annie and I did some shopping and then I lost her to Forever 21... I had places to be so I was off to my next event. Next stop, Trent and Amy's for a "Happy Jacob is in town BBQ".......

Trent and Amy's!!! I love BBQ's at their house, there is always too much food, so much fun, and a LOT of noise!!! The entire Jensen gang was there (minus Mike Neider) and boy was it fun! As always it was crazy, and these pictures don't even do it justice!

My Girl's night with Oaks!

I decided to take Oakley for the night after the BBQ. Boy did we have fun!

First on our list....

A Tea Party of course, which consisted of mini M&M's and water.

Next was movie night and painting our nails. We watched the "Princess Show" (Enchanted) and I painted Miss Oakley's nails....

I let her stay up way to late, once again I'm the fun aunt, we took some silly pictures before it was off to bed. Let me tell you Oakley is one snugly bug, she was right next to me all night!

This morning we got up got ready for church, walked to church, entertained each other during church, came home had a snacky snack, now we are once again watching "The Princess Show." I just love my Oakley and can't get enough of her!

Once again it was a wonderful weekend! I can't believe it's already over. This week brings working two jobs, school, and everything else! Wish me luck! :)

Love is in the Air.....

Today my friend Alicia tied the knot! The groupies and I made it so the reception tonight and she looked absolutely beautiful! She and her husband were just glowing, honestly they looked so happy! Both Alicia and her husband Rick are in my home ward, so needless to say the reception was a ward affair. I cannot tell you how many people if I was next, HELLO!? Do they not realize I missing a very important key, nay the key to marriage?!

*Left to right: Meagan, Bridget, Alicia, Bangs, Julianne, Brooke W.

It was a lot of fun to see old faces from high school, this is my group of friends (minus Michelle)from high school. Brooke on the far right is the next one to tie the knot in August, who knows when the rest of us will get there... Meagan is my bet after Brooke..... anyone want to wager?!

My best buds! Honestly, I just love these girls! I've been so lucky to have had such friends in life. I hope none of us ever get married so we can just stay friends forever! Ok, I don't really wish that, but it is so much fun that they are still around. So yes, love is in the air..... Rick and Alicia, Brooke W. and Cody, Me and my homes! :)

* P.S. What the heck are my bangs tonight!? I don't know what happened!?

Crack....

*Yes I did take this picture while driving! I'm sure it's fine.

Yesterday I sat in my car just before I went into work, everything was just fine, 6 hours later when I went out to my car there was a 2 foot crack across my windshield. I don't know how it happened or why it happened, quite frankly I think it's extremely lame! Because of how larger it is, and where it is, I need to get a new windshield. :(

LAME!!!!!
