Day 1

Day # 1
Post a picture of yourself and describe how your day has been.

I have been wanting to post this picture for a while but I feel I didn't has a reason.
The money has meaning, and its something that makes me smile.... just a little.



My day
Well with it being a new year, I realize that
I Believe....
That we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
That either you control your attitude or it controls you.
It's been a really rough day but I want to be positive.
The highlight of my day was
ZUMBA
I attended my hardest ZUMBA class ever this morning
Honestly I felt every part of my body burning
Maybe I am just really out of shape
Here is to another new year , and to another year of shedding some LBS
My day today is ZUMBA - Sleep - Work in 2+ Hrs

Bieber Fever


Because of Shae (pictured above)
I have had a poster of Justin Bieber on my wall for about 6 months now. He is the last thing I see every night before I go to bed. He even signed the poster, it reads;
"Natacia will you be my shorty"
Therefore I can not wait to go see his new movie with Shae.He is going to rock our world!  

Bieber Fever


On an even happier note, Emily and Shaun got married yesterday. I have no idea why I didn't take any pictures of them. They are such a beautiful couple and I couldn't be more happy for them. Trev was a champ and came to the wedding with me.


After the wedding we had a Kinect party and Kal and Taylor's. Once again I have NO idea why I didn't take pictures because it was the most halarious thing ever. Watching the boys dance battle was the best~! I did knock Trevor out at boxing, but then he destroyed me at track and field. We had so much fun, and I am so happy I got Trevor the Kinect for Christmas because now we can go buy our new favorite games! That was my weekend :) Now I have to work the worst night of the week to work... Saturday night :( I hope everyone else enjoys their saturday night! Although I am very grateful to have a job and I love all the kids and once I am there I will have a wonderful night! I am proud to say I have 2 post's in the new year already it is going to be a great blogging year I just know it!

Winter Holidays

Happy Holidays


These are all things I did not blog about this winter. Winter is cold, and I always want to snuggle up and watch movies with my free time, not blog. Anyway they are NOT in order but since the first snow fall to now these are things I would have blogged about :)






Christmas Tree Shopping


Alicia's Baby Shower
It was a lot of fun and we had a great turn out. Everyone was so helpful and it turned out really great! We can't wait for baby Madeline to get here.




College Gameday and many Utah games with Kalyn, she was so nice to let me use her husbands tickets when he was working, which was every game. It was such a blast!
GO UTES!

Zoo Lights, and hanging with my nieces and nephew! They bring so much joy to our family, I love them so much!





Many date nights with Trev :)

Halloween

Haunted House


Carving Pumpkins

Cowboys and Indian's Dance with SIGMA




Girls Day out with Bella was quite the adventure. A boy pushed her off the slide and it was a really scary moment, she fell on her head. She seemed to be ok after I got her Ice-cream and a princess from the Disney store. She is so much fun and is so sweet. I  was actually telling her how stupid the boy was for pusing her off the slide and she said "Tossy we don't say that word" haha she even keeps me in line! I love her so much!




Game nights lately have been so much fun! Sometimes it's with my parents or all of our friends and they are so much fun. I have to keep on record that Mallory and I DESTROYED Trevor and Pete at Catch Phrase,
We won 6 Games they won 1 game


Girls nights out..... Birthday Dinner's






Our Annual Christmas Party





Fun Chrismas activities such as;
Temple Square lights and making gingerbread houses


Jazz games!!

GO JAZZ

Mallory and Pete throw the best parties! This is a new tradition that she started an ugly sweater party!
Hopefully next year I will be able to host it so Mal doesn't have to do all the work, I am sure grateful she is willing too though.

Such a fun group of friends!


I sure am grateful to have such a fun group to hang out with and have fun parties with. They are all so much fun and so festive, we all get into it and that is the best part!

I had such an amazing christmas. I feel like I am so blessed and I have such an amazing family! I got the best christmas presents and I am obsessed with my new;

Kindle
GPS
Digital Photo Frame
Purse
Clothes
Perfume

I must have been a good girl because I sure got spoiled.
So now for the new year! GIVE IT UP FOR 2011!!!!!!!!!!
I am so excited for a new year and a fresh start! I know it is going to be such a great year and I hope to accomplish all of my goals.
I hope you all had a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Californiaaaaaaaa

This was over fall break... oooops
This post is late....
better late than never

So I grew up going to florida beaches, then through high school I lived in VA so I went to East coast beaches.. I went to california maybe once or twice but never to be a beach bum. We would stop by the beach for maybe a day and I always hated it. It seemed too cold and what in the heck SeaWeed?? That was unheard of in Florida... anyway I really wanted to go explore California. Like always people always bail when I plan a fall break or spring break... but this time at least Trevor followed through. He has cousins that live in long beach that were so nice to let us stay with him. It was such a perfect vacation! On our way down we stayed at Erin and Neals, sadly they were not there :( but Pete, Mal, and Hads were staying there for the weekend as well. We went to Vegas and did some great H&M shopping :) We also laid out at a pool called Tahiti Village, I had stayed there a while back with some girl friends and I knew just how to get in haha you would have never known we weren't timeshare owners.
Vegas Baby
So my camera deleted my other pictures from Vegas :( so I have none with Mal or Pete or Hads ... sad.

The next day Trev and I headed of to California! It was such a fun road trip.. I thought Long Beach was so much further then it was but it wasn't a bad drive at all. Trev and I had things on our list we wanted to do but the best part was that we had no set plans. We did what we wanted to do when we wanted to do it :)
The first day we went to Olvero Street in downtown LA ... Trevor loved it! He went to Mexico on his mission and he said they had all of the same things. Clothes... cups... candy... food... people walking around singing sweet mexican tunes! It was a lot of fun!




Then we headed to Venice Beach.. talk about the best people watching in the world! We could not stop laughing! After being beach bums all day, we took the long board on the board walk.. Trev is a professional... I sucked!


After that we went to the Santa Monica Pier! We had such a great day of sunshine but then it started to get a little muggy.... it was so fun just being in a different atmosphere.. being in a place with all these tourists. I loved it... this is when I started to fall in love with California. A change of heart you could say.....




 










The rest of the trip was a lot of the same thing. We went to different beaches everyday. Hunington Beach was our favorite! We loved the beach... the pier... the surfers.... the shopping.. and it just had a great vibe. If either one of us ever own a beach house in california it would def. be at Hunington Beach.



 








One tradition we did start.. was everyday we ate lunch on the water... we ate at a few pier's or just at restaurants that had a view of the Ocean. It was fun everyday deciding where we were going to eat :)





Ruby's was our favorite! The restaurant at the end of the Hunington Beach Pier. On our way to eat lunch we saw TUNZ of dolphins. We watched them play for about an hour then we got seated at our table and we could still see them from where we ate. It was so much fun and they had great hamburgers and shakes!! YUM!!

 









If you know my love for animals you would understand the SEA WORLD was one of the highlights of my trip for sure. It is my dream to work there and work with the sea lions. They are so flipping cute and so smart!. San Diego seemed like a lot of fun, I was sad we only got to spend 1 day their but 5th avenue in downtown SD was such a hopping place. We had dinner and did some more shopping :).



It was such a great trip, we got to see friends and family and be together a lot. I don't think we had 1 fight believe it or not haha. I didn't know what to expect becuase it was my first time spending that much time with trevor... I think it was 10 days :) but all I can say is I for sure just fell for him more. I hope we can go back again next year!

 










Yvette and Glenn were such kind generous people to let us stay with them. Also Erin and Neal, I feel so lucky to have such great friends. I wish they all lived really close so we could spend more time together but no matter how much time goes by without spending time together its always the same when we finally do. I am so lucky and blessed for all the amazing people in my life, I really couldn't ask for any better.


This was something we saw on our long road trip... Seriously how would you like to tell someone... Oh just get off the zzyzs road exit. No big deal.
