orange and blue look good on you.

Lets just talk about how much i love these two people in the pic with me. lets just talk about how no matter where i go i have the time of my life when im with my twin. and lets just talk about how everytime i make my way to boise it either ends or begins in tears.

so lets just mention some highlights of the nov 2010 boise trip. dress up. new changes. slumber parties. tjmaxx. dressing for 20 degree weather when it was actually 75 degrees. cheering on my favorite broncos. cafe rio. walking thru the boise market. pretending i was a wilson. target and christmas shopping before thanksgiving. candy like old times. dancing in the car. pictures. wishing we were in kelli's shoes. and tears to lady gaga's poker face. No matter how bad a day or a week or a month can get... it can always be cured with a trip to see my bestie. So dear Tennessee Titans.. for the sake of me and my twin jewels.. please draft kellen moore. he'd beat vince any day. and lets be honest its about time two best friends get to live in the same state again. mwah.

hallofreakinween


spotted. best day of the year. wait a second.. back it up.. best month of the year. as october comes to a close lets take a minute to reminisce on the highlights and lowlights of this classic and historical hallofreakinween.

h-lights

10.trunk or treat. saw a girl dressed in a cupcake outfit. way to begin the month. totally sold.

9.first holiday my cute little condo has seen. no longer do my neighbors think im the freaky cat lady (i dont even have cats im just a loser) im now the halloween girl. u best be believin i had myself a doorstep scene with a homemade wreath scary witches and light up pumpkins. so maybe it is nov 3 and they are still out there. don't judge just love.

8.had men chasing me with chainsaws at a haunted house. can life get better? oh yes it can...when you along with ur cuz get hit on by ghosts in that same haunted house. and hang out with them later and marry them. all true minus the post haunted house rendezvous and marriage.

7.saw a scary movie that still has me up at night. lets just say my toes are always under the covers. its fine tho me and my demon are tight.

6.got to see some sick brentwood football games and both brothers and my sis in law this month. it was great, i now have page long christmas lists from them all. ud think i was a millionaire. little do they know i dont have a job im just thousands of dollars in debt. jk.

5.got a spontaneous arrival visit from my gfizzleville friends. whats better than getting a five day visit when your expecting a three day stay. loved every second. dets to be made in the next few highlights.

4.dressed up as ms clause and walked around all night saying "naughty is the new good". during what other month could i get away with that? oh and danced with a chicken and mad scientist and 10 foot tall man and popeye. love my life.






3.prepared rat meat, witch fingers, ghost mashed potatoes, and kitty liter dessert for sunday
dinner. my men dressed in costume #3, and i got to wear a skeleton apron. u didn't believe me.. but seriously this is the best month.

2.watched men run around in a suit that is yet-to-be-determined-what-it-is and a gorilla outfit.






















1.and finally, i spent the whole weekend dancing instead of sleeping. who needs shut-eye when there's good music goin on somewhere. I love this month. hallofreakinween you never fail me.

lowlights.
1. its over. 11 months till the party begins again.

When you try your best but you dont succeed.
when you get what you want but not what you need.
when you feel so tired but you can't sleep.
stuck in reverse.
when the tears come streaming down your face.
when you lose somethingyou can't replace.
when you love someone but it goes to waste.
could it be worse.

lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones.
and i will try.
to fix you

window to the sky. telescope to the eye. like a stamp to a letter. i wanna know you better.
i wanna go together with you.

im obsessed.


so maybe halloween is a month and a half away. and maybe i have no reasons and no parties, but yes i do have my place sparkling with orange, black and purple-ps love that purple is the new halloween color-already.. me in michaels and the fabric store is equal to a fat kid in the candy shop. and now I have a black scary cat adorning my mantle, a bloody skeleton resting on my table, a handmade gothic black wreath, and yes a black polka-dot-with-orange-trim table runner is in the works. I can't help it. call me crazy. but im straight up obsessed with this holiday. trick or treat.

“It is in the home that we form our attitudes, our deeply held beliefs. It is in the home that hope is fostered or destroyed. Our homes are to be more than sanctuaries; they should also be places where God’s Spirit can dwell, where the storm stops at the door, where love reigns and peace dwells.”
president hinckley.

goodbye and hello.

home.


its been another whirlwind of a few weeks. finally made it to brazil (without a few slight problems-which is to be expected when the webbers travel) and for the first time in years we had our entire family together. it was a little taste of heaven on earth. we spent the rest of the week staying up late telling stories, meeting incredible brazilian families with larger than life testimonies, taking pictures, buying soccer jerseys and homemade jewelry, eating authentic brazilian rice/beans/meat-which later we would find out would stay with us longer than we would prefer, and just soaking up life in the brazil. it was awesome. but its even better to just be home and to have everyone back where they belong. and by everyone im talking about wade.clay.davis.kyle.smitty.ty.robert.jenny.chase&abbe. the package is back. (although most never left-thank goodness). its going to be a good summer.

loved it.


hmm. how do you blog about a weekend like the one that just swept thru the webber household. it was incredible. so much better than you could ever expect. i hope if you know me, you know that what i love more than anything in this world are my friends and family. i love being around them. i love going to dinner with them. chatting with them. watching movies with them. laughing about nothing with them. hanging in the kitchen with them. making icees with them. i don't have to be doing anything. or i can be doing everything. but if my family and friends are around it doensn't matter.. im a happy girl. and this weekend was exactly that. not only did we get to celebrate the 8 year courtship of abigail andrews and chase webber, but we got to celebrate it with everyone we love around us. from touching words at the rehearsal dinner, traditional songs sung and played at night, pool basketball, late night discussions, snacks around the kitchen table, wedding pictures, wedding ceremony, props in the photobooth, best food on earth at the reception, an entire ward dominating the dance floor, and brazilian banana cream pies. it was wonderful. thank you to the beuses, grandma and grandpa meyer, louis and amy, the critchlows, the webbers, the dopps, tommy sorber and rhett, tony, ben and kendra, and a million other amazing friends and fam that made this weekend a favorite. and thank you abbe and chase for giving us a reason to celebrate. love you all. can't wait for the next party:) mwah.

dear minneapolis, minnesowtah.

i have now had the wonderful opportunity of experiencing your beautiful land for nearly two weeks. thank you for reminding me that i love pacemakers and pig hearts. that a bed made every morning is a fabulous luxury. that i would rather eat homemade food over restaurant food any day. that walking around a city is one of my favorite things to do. that being blonde in the city will grant you some interesting conversations with homeless men. that birthdays aren't quite as fun with strangers. that target is my favorite store. that no mall i ever visit will compare to the theme-park, four story, three victoria secret, 50% off candy store- shopping facility that you own. but mostly i must thank you for confirming my love for my company, and excitement for my young start at this brand new exhilarating career. 'preciate it minne. its been good. but girl its time to get home. farewell and see you far too soon.

farewell 22.





what a good. no great. no incredible year. i loved 22. every second of it. hmm ok... most seconds of it. it started with a birthday bash with friends from almost every step of my life. byu roommates, my twin, fellow dc interns, my newest slc friend, and nashville lovers. all blonde. all amazing. all incredible examples to me. how can you not love a year that begins like that.

but believe it or not the year just got better and better. i got to move to a completely new city.. i made friends with 37 strangers in a week. i met people that influenced my life greater than they will ever know. i fell in love with a ward that ill never forget. i got to travel to the dominican republic. danced all night in a disco on new years. fell hard. picked myself back up. learned what a pacemaker does. put a man in vfib. interviewed over 50 times. experienced san fran solo. got a visit from my favorite twin. started a big girl career. bought my first piece of furniture. paid my first real bill. sat in a rocking chair in downtown greenville with one of my best friends trying to figure out life every friday. got my first real paycheck. got cut off from the parentals. learned a lesson in faith. many lessons in faith. prayed hard. loved hard. worked hard. and was blessed hard.. i can't imagine a better year. so grateful for what i got to experience. but whats up 23.. i dare you to beat what i already got:)
