Lately....

Stadium Of Fire
Karinas Bridal Shower

I feel like I started a blog at both the completely wrong and right time in my life. I feel like I started it at the wrong time because I now have so much to do and never anytime to just sit down and blog! But then again, that is why I need to blog! Because I am starting a whole new exciting chapter in my life! These past two weeks have been a bit hectic. My friend since 7th grade, Allie Barker, now Allie Vincent, got married. She looked absolutely gorgeous in her wedding dress, not a shocker! And she looked so happy! I am so excited for her and her cute new hubby! Then the night after that was one of my other friends, Karina Wood, bridal shower. She is getting married on July 30th to Aaron Powell, and I could not be more happy for her! It was so fun to catch up with old high school friends and talk about old memories. When we were in 9th grade we all made a list of who we thought would be married first, second, third, etc. First was Karina, and second was ME! I dont think that one will be happening anytime soon (dont worry mom!) but I am so glad that Karina has found Aaron and that she is so happy! Love you K! So then on Saturday night of that week was what every Utahn looks forward to each year....STADIUM OF FIRE!!! and this year I was especially excited because my favorite singer, Carrie Underwood, was the performer. She was AMAZING!!!! She sang a few of her older songs, and a few of her new ones from her new cd, and we all sang along as loud as we could! She sang "How Great Thou Art" for her closing song and I am pretty sure she gave every single person in the stadium goose bumps. From the hysterically funny dad sitting in front of us and the rude people sitting behind us yelling at us to sit down (at a concert????) this was such a fun night that I got to have with my girls! Then on Sunday night was the night of celebration for every college student in Utah County. I wish I would have taken a picture of how many people were in the parking lot of 7-11 gas station, because it was crazy. Who knew it would be so fun to stand around and talk with music blasting and friends surrounding you, and just walking the streets of Provo and meeting new people. It was a sleepless freezing cold night, no joke we went to bed at 7 am, and woke up at 8:30 am to the parade starting, but so worth it! The last exciting thing that I have to update on is that I have officially started school at Acaydia! I absolutely love the girls that I go to school with. It has only been a week and a half and we have all become very close and have been hanging out after school and on the weekends. I have already learned how to do brow and lash tints, pedicures and manicures, and leg and underarm waxing along with facial waxing. My mom came into my school and I got to do the brow and last tint and a mani /pedi on her and it was so fun. Its a bit nerve racking to think that in 3 weeks I am going to start working at the spa and taking appointments but I cant wait! If anyone wants a treatment done then let me know! We do things such as facials, mani/pedis, back treatments, waxing, microdermobrasion, high frequency and more! Go to the acaydia.com website to view a full list of all of the treatments we offer and then call to schedule an appointment with me!
