'Cause I'm just a summer girl

You know how you listen to a song and it completely makes your day?

I do. Music has been doin that to me lately. I really like it.

"Love like Crazy" by Lee Brice, is a real goood one.

These are the lyrics that get me:

"Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse I Love You

Go to work, do your best, don't outsmart your common since

Never let your prayin' knees get lazy

And love like crazy"

When I'm married I want to overuse I love you, and pray with my husband and struggle and get through it and in the end think about how we made it through everything...

Another song I'm obsessed with is Summer girl by Jessica Andrews

"And in my mind

The sun shines

All the time"

I think you can choose to be happy, in any situation you can be positive or negative. I'm reading this book and it says instead of asking, "why is this happening to me?" ask "what can I learn out of all of this?" or "who can I help at this time, who needs my help?" Things like that. I need to be more like that.

Summer girls is the best summer song you can jam in your car.

One day I was blasting this song in my car, all the windows down, music as high as it can be and of course, singing at the top of my lungs with my dog's tongue panting, sticking out of the window, and I looked to my left and there's this guy staring at me and my dog, and my singing of course.. and all I could do was laugh. I laughed, he laughed, I turned right, and he went straight. It was summer, I was just a girl jammin to a really good song, hangin with my dog and all I could do was laugh. Just laugh. It's good for you, not to mention it's fun and it makes you a happier person.

"'Cause I'm just a summer girl

I wear my flip flops

When I let my hair down

That's when the party starts

The party never stops

Who needs a boyfriend

I got my girl friends

When we get together

The summer never ends"

"Everybody needs a little bit of sunshine

Everybody needs time to unwind

Everybody's got to have a good time

Everybody get up on your feet

Everybody got to shake your body

Everybody got a right to be free"

Sweet Summertime

My Hero. <3>

Sweet little girls.

Blessings to the world.

Funny little brothers.

Sweet family time.

Summer Summer Summer.

What a wonderful three months it is.

It's one word, but when you hear it, a thousand pictures FLY through your mind...

lake trips, BBQ's, tan lines, watermelon, water, vacations, sunshine, smiles, laughter, family, a break from school...

all that good stuff.

here's some pictures of all that good stuff happening to me.

I love summer..

Utah's crazy weather we consider them to be acceptable.)

Happy Memorial Dayyyyy

I'm not really doing anything right now a days.

Me and boys equals a mess. I can't do anything right. Sorry guys.

All I do is work, monday through friday. 4-8.

Then on the weekends I go home to Vegas and hang out with my mom and dad.

This system works for me, but makes me wonder if I should have moved home for the summer?

I hate that thought, but when all I do is sleep till 12, go to work from 4-8 come home and do nothing, it makes me wonder.

Residency is a pain in the A.

I'd rather be hanging out with my sister Aubree and my niece and nephew instead of working.

Memorial day weekend was wonderful. that's an understatement. It flew by, and I loved every minute of it.

We swam, hung out, partied, ate lots of cake, lots of watermelon, sandwiches, drinks with crushed ice, ate more cake. mmmm it was a great weekend.

Here's pictures of this weekend. I Love my family

I'm a family girl

The day before Mothers day, my friend Nikole's mother passed away. When I heard that my heart sank into my stomach, there isn't a feeling really for the sorrow that I feel for my friends whose parents passed away. My other friend Megan, her mom died yesterday due to cancer. My heart goes out to my friends because I honestly would be a MESS if I were in their situations. I don't know what I would do. Hearing that their mothers passed made me just realize how truly blessed and grateful I am for my family. I am a family girl. Always have been, always will be. My mom is my best friend, my Dad is the best, he's supppper funny. I'm way close with my sisters and my little brother is like the funniest person to be around. I'm just blessed with the best family there is. I made a video just for fun but it's got my adorable nephew Ethan in it, my new niece Baylee Aubree Blau in it, basically it's a video about my family and how happy they make me. I wish I could tell them all the time how much I love them because family is the most important thing to me. The reason I'm posting this video is because I want everyone to see my gorgeous, hilarious, and wonderful family. So enjoy it and remember that family is the most important thing we've got..

Click on the video to watch it on youtube. It's small on here. :)





So guess what? I play words, on my iphone, just like everyone else... anyways I got a 99 point word!! Don't believe me? I've got pictures to prove it. I was playing against my mamma, and the word is JEON. I know, I made it up, but apparently it's a word!!

The funny thing is, is that I've never been good at scrabble, Jackie can vouch for that. When we were little we were playing with our mom and it was my turn I was taking awhile I guess and Jackie said, "just hurry up and make a word." and my reply was, "well I could spell korea if I had a C." Jackie immediately threw her letters at me and ended the game. I never was good at scrabble, but with the game Words, I've been doing a lot better.

So here's the funny story of the week...

So me and Tayler went to the Hogle Zoo with my sister and her family awhile ago. There is a really cool bird show that isn't starting for a few months. Some of their birds are not friendly, so the workers put them on leashes and walk around with them so the birds can get used to people. So me and Tayler walk up to this eagle, and the eagle jumped off the worker's hand and scratched my leg with it's gigantic long nail. So I have this gnarly scratch down my leg, and thats the story I tell people... because the real story is lame. Tayler came up with this hilarious story, because we did go to the zoo and they really have birds walking around with the workers who aren't used to people so it seemed like a legit story, but the eagle scratch is a huge exaggeration. Funny thing is, people believe this story. We went to the hot springs the other night and told some guys this story, totally bought it, went to the jacuzzi last night, told some people the story, they totally bought it too haha. I haven't spread the story, I told some friends the story and they know it's a joke but they told some others and it just got around haha. It's hilarious. So if you hear about the girl at the zoo who got scratched by a eagle, it's me. The pic of it is from when its healing, it used to be HUGE and deep. Here it is:

well that's all for now <3>

HARE KRISHNA!

Just wanted to post some pictures of my rad life. Me, Tayler, Chris, Derek & Christensen went to Hare Krishna! This huuuge festival in utah, some indian church puts it on, we all buy chalk, and welcome spring by throwing chalk at each other and dancing to the most awesome music in the world. I crowd surfed. I know. Big deal, well at least to me it is. Chris and Derek just threw me up there and yelled "keep her going!" and I went. haha it was fun though, I never wanted to crowd surf but I honestly would do it again.









This was probably one of the Funnest Days Ever. Hands DOWN! Everyone should go to this festival, sure you have to walk to Egypt to get to this church because parking is a beast, but when you get there and see the crowd, buy your chalk, and can throw chalk at anyone while you walk by without them caring, well. it's just Super FUUn.



So by the way, I have the best family in the whole wide world. My little niece Baylee Aubree Blau was blessed today. My family came up for it, they are the best family ever. My mom, dad, and brother drove six hours saturday to get up here and drove six hours sunday back to vegas just to be here for the blessing. Can you say supportive? They were here last weekend too. They are my rock, and that's what you family should be. This weekend, easter will be way fun because I'm going home. Clint is coming, I hope jackie and Brandon come too! I just love when the whole family gets together and does stuff. I can't believe it's easter already.



Me & my Mom look more and more alike each day. She's the bestest mother in the whole entire world. I honestly am blessed with the best parents ever.


Just a random picture of my freaking cute nephew Ethan! He is thee cutest thing ever. Today we were at church with him because we went to Baylee's blessing, and Ethan did the funniest and cutest thing ever. So, this girl sang a solo, it was beautiful. Ethan thought that meant it was time to sing. When it's time to sing, aubree, his mother, (who should have tried out for American Idol she has the best voice in the world) has taught him to open the hymn book and sing. So Ethan stands up on his favorite Uncle Mark's legs, holds open his hymn book and starts singing. It was the FUNNIEST thing ever. People were cracking up all around Ethan because it was so cute, and he wouldn't stop.... that was the best part. No matter how many times we sshhh'ed him he just decided it was time to sing.

I have the best family in the world, if any of you are reading this, (usually it's jackie, hollie, my mom, maybe ashley) well anyways whoever you are, and if your related to me, just know that I love you & I'm grateful for you in my life.

Blessed.

I haven't blogged in awhile. Life got in the way. I have lots of things to report about though. starting with the most exciting, I have a braaand new baby niece!!! She is by far the most beautiful and peaceful baby in the world. Her name is Baylee Aubree Blau, and she's perfect. I have been waiting for this little angel for a loongg time, my mom and dad were too. I made Mark (my sister's husband's brother) call me right when he found out so I could go down there to take care of Ethan, my nephew who is 2, then I'd call my family & they'd come to utah. That was the plan. And that's kinda how it happened. Mark called me and I screamed I was so excited. Mark said, "Christy you have a really powerful scream" so sorry to you Mark haha. Terrribly sorry. Nonetheless, Baylee is here, Aubree is doing GREAT, Ethan loves Baylee, and everything is going great.

Spring break was way too short for me. Me, Jackie & brandon drove to Vegas to meet up with our family and then we went to disneyland. It was a blast. Disneyland was packed, that was the only thing I really hated about Disneyland this year. Other than that the weather was perfect and we all had tons of fun. We went to Seal Beach, which is just some beach that's like 10 minutes from our hotel. Anyway seal beach had this pier that reminded me of the epic scene from dear john, I should have taken a picture of it, but that made me love this beach more. I got a little sun too which is nice because Tayler tells me all the time how white I am.

When I got home after a looonng drive back to Utah I walked in my messy room, only to find that some mysterious person had put a Justin Bieber and Taylor Lautner poster on my wall. It made me laugh. I thought it was my roomies just being funny as usual, but then I noticed a letter on my bed that said I'd been missed, and welcome home, from clint. My man. It was probably one of the sweetest things ever because it was just really thoughtful. I wish guys read blogs so they could read this and realize that's all it takes, some little small act of kindness or something thoughtful for us girls to melt.

I just got a text from twitter saying that bryan seeley, my cousin's husband who I follow is going out to lunch with his friends at the best mexican restaurant in salt lake. I love twittering by the way, I think it's tweeting actually. Oh well, so this tweet just made me depressed though. Tayler has been on this eating healthy strike. I am in full support for it, but I just love food. She's been on this for about a week, stayin strong, and I mean strong. I'm real proud of ya T. So yesterday I slept through my two classes, didnt do much homework, didn't go to the gym, didn't clean my room, didn't shower, and sat on the couch and ate ice cream. No joke, there's witnesses. Tayler came home from work and Im sittin on the couch watching the OC, eating ice cream. Then ten minutes later Im soaking my 7th oreo in milk. Im such an oreo expert. I know when it's been in the milk long enough. It's so pathetic. So last night I came to the conclusion that I need to eat healthier too. Because Im ten pounds away from being single the rest of my life and living with cats. That's kinda a lifestyle Im okay with though, my facebook picture is of me and my cat, Romeo. Sometimes Im surprised I have friends when I realize how sad that is. So Im going on this healthy eating diet thing too, and so far today Ive just had water because I don't think I have anything healthy to eat. I opened our cubbard and it's filled with random things like pasta, soup, chocolate milk mix, tuna fish, and salsa. None of which sound good. Not to mention that I'm constantly broke, so Im scared I might slip and have an oreo. Im broke all the time but somehow I managed to spend 8 dollars at pirate island's arcade. Not sure how that happened, okay yes I am. Tayler, Tyler and I played "deal or no deal," which is the coolest game ever and won about 200 tickets from it! It's addicting and thrilling. If it were the real deal I swear I'd freak out on stage like the contestants.

Speaking of being broke I got a job. I start April 1st. Im a receptionist for the Girl Scouts of Utah. Wooo. Couldn't be a better job. It sounds too perfect. Im hoping theres some discount on cookies or something. Those samoa cookies are BOMB, and I walked into a room filled with about 80 boxes of them and I just froze it looked all so delicioussss. mmm I'm a little excited to start.

School is getting progressively harder each week. Math is killin me, if I don't do good on this test Im scared I won't pass. & I have a feeling I won't do good on it, probably because I don't understand it. I miss high school, I miss Mr. Mast, and farm basket, and seeing friends in my classes, and assemblies, and worrying about if my teacher is gonna catch me texting. Sometimes college sucks. I sit in class, and dilly-dally on my phone loggin onto facebook and twitter and Im constantly downloading new apps. So while Im paying attention oh so well, I'm also reading my friend's blogs. Lauren had a buncha cool sayings on hers, Yarm and Leah have this cool way of writing and so does Sydney Bunker. I read people's blogs, even if I don't know them because I love the way they write so much. Syd said her sister is her hero and wrote in the most inspiring way. I wish my sisters would say something like that about me haha. Reading other's blogs made me want to blog. Even though I didn't have anything to blog about and I know nobody reads them except for maybe Tayler if I force her to, it's just good to get it out there, write it all out and realize how good life is to me. I'm an aunt to the sweetest kids ever, my family is safe happy & healthy, I'm blessed to be able to pay for school, I got a guy who loves me, friends who laugh with me, a roof over my head, tuna in my kitchen, and everything I could ever ask for.
