Sounds Like Life

You know how sometimes you get down on yourself and think that everything that is happening to you or people you know is the worst thing in the world??

Well.. this song helps me a little bit with that.

It is a nice comic relief and a friendly reminder that despite the unfortunate things that come our way... THAT'S JUST LIFE!!

So buckle up and enjoy the ride. =)

Darryl Worley: Sounds Like Life To Me

My Momma is the Best

I'm glad that someone once decided to designate a day to mom's... they sure do deserve it. This week my mom has gone above and beyond with planning 3 parties in one week, cooking dinner for 40 twice, and doing all of it with virtually no sleep.

I love you Mom. You amaze me everyday... even though you think that I'm a nosey, hall monitor bratty girl about 95% of the time =)

Happy Day!

21 and Counting

Yesterday was my 21st birthday.. not too big of a deal here in Utah, and that is just fine with me!!

It was a great day. I could have done without having to move out of my apartment and literally recieving 2 hours of sleep in 50 hours.... =)

I went to church, ate with the fam, hung out with friends, and did some studying for finals.

The highlight of the day was this e-mail from my sister, her husband, and my two nephews. This is what life is all about. enjoy!

To Madison:

Bargains Galore

My morning was occupied by aimlessly wandering through rows and rows of biographies, self-help books, and sleezy romantic fantasies. However, through all the piles of uselessness, I found some real bargains. Along side Kayde Auger, I purchased the following.

It seemed like a waste of money to NOT buy these.. (that makes zero sense... I know, but it is the logic that I use to justify spending money.)

Ready for some summer reading!

Don't Try This At Home!

Well I have a new addiction... and I haven't figured out if it is a positive or negative one yet... well I guess no matter what way you look at an addiction it's never positive. Oops.

Here's a big 'THANK YOU' to my friend Patrick Allred. He introduced me to this dear website.

A Day Down South

This past weekend I had the lovely pleasure of accompanying the one and only Brady Mathews to Provo. We left mid afternoon and headed to Draper and make a stop at IKEA. Now I don't know about yall, but IKEA gives me the biggest sensory overload of my life.. I can appreciate all it does and stands for, but after about 20 minutes, I'm ready to high tail it out of there!

Next we went to heaven. (Oh excuse me, Nordstrom.) We shopped around for a while. I bought a fantastic new pair of TOMS wedges that are grey and cream stripped. Yay.

We then ventured to Mimi's Cafe for dinner and met up with some more friends.

Then, onto the highlight of the evening. We went to the BYU ballroom dance team performance. It was truly phenomenal! It was like being in the presences of Dancing with the Stars and SYTYCD all in one!!! Enough said.

Amazing little Samba... whew!

the Finale!! INCREDIBLE!

After the show, we picked up and went to this little HOLE in the wall of a place called Sammy's. Word on the street was Sammy's was the best milkshake place in town. They make not MILKshakes, but PIEshakes. I. AM. A. FAN!! I had the Apple Cobbler pie shake and Brady got the Chocolate Oreo Cream Pie shake.

This weekend was much needed!! Great shopping, even better eats, and the best quality time with one of my best friends!

1 month and counting!

Life is always changing. Always bringing up a new challenge. Gives you joys and sorrows. Life is fantastic... I think I forget that sometimes.

Last time I checked, I was Madison Beyers. A girl going to Utah on a whim for college. Not sure what she wanted to do, and definitely not sure who she was!

I was hit upside the head this week with a world of new realizations.

1) I am going to be a senior in college...

2) People move and friends change, more than one may like.

3) Picking a career is harder than I thought.

4) Love does not come as easy as some may think it does, or that we would like it to.

So this time next month I will be moving home for the 3rd summer in a row. It will be an adventure! A couple of trips will make me one happy girl. Florida, New York, and Texas... what MORE could I ask for.

This month will go by quickly.. perhaps too quickly. But none the less it will come, so I am buckling up and hoping on... full speed!
