Lots of love.

It's been a week full of love :)
Cheesy but true.

 Dinner on the lawn soaking up the last of the daylight.

Figure ground homework assignment in graphic design!
You probably can't tell but it's a C and an H.

 I came home to red roses, homemade dinner, and a beautiful card.
My husband knows me well!

Friday we were heart attacked, TWICE! :) The hearts on the grass from Mom Hauck (as part of the pay it forward facebook challenge), and the compliment hearts on the house from the Stokes!

We definitely felt loved!

 Some of our cute hearts on the front door!

 Friday we headed to my grandparent's cabin! On our way up we stopped in Kanab and hung out for a minute, that's where we met this cute guy. Jeff's dream dog is an english bulldog named Theodore, Theo for short, so this little wood statue was exciting for us.

Up at the cabin we shot, played games, napped, and learned how to run things while my grandparents are on their mission. While there, I always take a lot of pictures, this time Cec wanted to take pictures of me so I agreed and she captured some pretty shots.

She also did my hair in this awesome fishtail half up hair do!

Some fun shots in the field.

We couldn't resist with my big skirt.

 I love my sisters.

 They are so beautiful and I would do anything for them.

Sisters are gifts.

I also love my husband...

...so so so much! Today he gave me a long hug when he came home from lunch and I had a moment of realization...

...realization that he really loves me so fully and so completely and that he will always be there for me NO MATTER WHAT. I have always known that but sometimes you catch glimpses that embed it into your soul, that was one of those moments. He's amazing, and he really has no idea how amazing he really is.

This picture is HILARIOUS to me, while up at the cabin we tried all these different social dance moves and failed epically at each one. Haha, it was so fun and we laughed forever, this is one of our fails hahaha.

The beautiful cabin we get to enjoy so much is all thanks to these two amazing people. They are such wonderful examples of hard work, love, and faith and I am so grateful for them.

They are going to be amazing missionaries in Nauvoo and I can't wait to go visit them!

The whole cabin crew! It was a fun last hurrah as a family before the mission!

It was a busy and fun week full of lots of love! I took WAY MORE pictures but these were my select few! I love my life and although it is not perfect, it is perfect for me. I learn something new every day and I feel like I become more of who I was meant to be each day and with each trial.
Life is a beautiful thing, enjoy it!

Mildly exciting.

This week has been mild and maybe a little uneventful, but here's what's been going on!

 I'm really enjoying all my classes, they are working my brain over, but I am really enjoying it.

Here is one of my photoshop assignments.

 A couple weeks ago Syd and her cheer team took state!

 Cute little cheerleader, I wish I could have been there but we had a benefit concert the same night! 

They were really amazing though!

 Last Friday Kalamity had another assembly and this was the best on yet! These students were absorbing everything we were giving them and the feeling of hope was amazing!

That same night we went up to Cedar and performed at their annual Black Student Union Step Show, this was my 4th year performing there and it was eventful as usual! It's nice to go to an event you wouldn't normally go to and to get "cultured," I highly recommend it to everyone!

Sunday night Jeff and I took a nice walk up to the water tower! The weather has been dreamy and this walk was much needed!

This Friday Kalamity and Kaos are putting together this AWESOME one-of-a-kind fundraiser all in the name of love (your love and our love for Kycie!) So get dressed up and come have an awesome date night full of dancing all for $20! :)

This weekend we are headed to Glendale with the Horlacher family to be trained and enjoy one last family cabin trip before Grandma and Grandpa head to Nauvoo on their mission!
So expect pictures :) LOTS of pictures!

Mission calls and baby blessings.

This last week was an exciting and eventful week!
Amy got her mission call and Hudson and Alma Ty both were blessed.
It's such an exciting stage for both of our families with missions, babies, and weddings.
We are richly blessed!

She was called to the Hermosillo, Mexico mission and reports to the Mexico MTC June 24th! That’s just two hours north of where Trevor is!!! :)

Hudson was blessed!

Alma Ty was blessed!

And yes, I wore two different outfits to each blessing. I HAVE A PROBLEM.

I love my family!

Here is Angel and Cecilee's save the date video that I put together from their engagement photo shoot!

Amy's mission call opening! :)

My cute elder :) I love that smile!

It's a BEAUTIFUL life!

This week has been a blast, it has really reminded me of how beautiful my life is...
Although school has been kicking my butt with homework due every night, I feel refreshed and renewed in life.
If that makes any sense...
Here is what got me feeling this way...

I get to do what I love :) I love being able to use creativity and rely solely on myself! Sounds silly but I LOVE IT!

I got to take Cecilee and Angel's engagements! I'm so excited for them and this fun stage of life.

When I look at this picture I see the little girl I grew up with. I love my sister so much, she is truly my best friend! Her and Angel have a happy future!

This picture is just gorgeous, look at the beautiful couple and the beautiful world behind them!

Life is truly beautiful in every way!!!

 Last week my mom, Syd and I went dress shopping! I hit a hole in one with this dress and jewelry combination, literally this was the first dress I picked out. Syd was hesitant saying, "I am not trying that dress on, that color won't look good on me."

I quickly combatted her remark telling her that she couldn't be more wrong, that color was made for her! 

Long story short, she tried it on, LOVED IT, and we had her whole getup for $70!

Dance day came and Cec and I forced ourselves on Syd, SHE DID NOT LIKE IT AT ALL DURING THE PROCESS (we heard a lot of sassy comments). 

However, when she looked at herself in the mirror she couldn't stop smiling.

Cec did her hair in a fishtail half up hair do and I played around with a natural yet elegant make up look.

Last night we went to visit Britton at the Acute Rehab and he is so inspiring!

I've never seen anyone with such a strong spirit and determination, we were only there 10 minutes but in those 10 minutes I was simply amazed and inspired. His journey is so amazing and I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to serve him back in November when we did the benefit concert for him. It was such a small service in comparison to the service he has done for me in keeping me in perspective focused on the miracles possible through faith!

While preparing for our upcoming concert this Saturday, we put together this music video to spread the message that "YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT" because you really can!

Click on the picture to see the video! If you want to keep up with Kalamity, follow the blog here!

To sum everything up, cause I know it was a little scatter brained, IT'S A BEAUTIFUL LIFE!

Enjoy it!

Wedding Cheer :)

This week was the first week of classes for Spring semester, and I must say I am proud of myself.

This is embarrassing to say but...I can't remember the last time I went to a full week of classes and this week I did!!!

It's been hard staying focused with school but I feel refreshed and ready to take it on.

Anyway, here's how the rest of the week went...

We've been back at wedding planning and this week we tackled flowers. We did a fake bouquet (which looks so real) so that Cec can have it forever!!! 

I'm getting really excited for her!

Saturday we up north as a family for Sydnee's cheer competition and Cecilee's wedding dress shopping.

 Our cute little cheerleader took 1st in three of their routines and 2nd in their competition routine! They did AWESOME!!!

 Go Warriors!!!

 We rushed over to David's Bridal for Cecilee's wedding dress appointment and guess what...

SHE SAID YES TO THE DRESS, and I am convinced that I need to open a bridal shop to make the wedding dress shopping experience the best it could be starting with changing the lighting!!!

 Our cute little bride with her gown!

We got to hang out with these two babes...

And Angel's family during the wedding dress shopping spree!

It was a fun week and don't forget to save the date, May 9th!!!

Little closer to the boring side.

This week was slow and really uneventful.

But here are the few highlights captured with my phone!

Leftover egg nog means creative hot cocoa mixtures to use it up!

 Jeff will kill me, but I have to...Tuesday nights are now dedicated to catching up on Bachelor with this stud! Jeff won't watch any of my shows without technology in front of his face unless it is Bachelor haha. There's just something about the Bachelor.

 Guess what I got for Valentines and my 23rd birthday (early gift of course)...TAYLOR SWIFT CONCERT TICKETS!!!! If you didn't know this about me, I love Taylor Swift and I have since the release of Teardrops on my Guitar. :) It's on my bucket list and I have the greatest husband EVER!!!!!!!!!!!

 My aunt celebrated her 29th birthday and we had a surprise lunch with friends and family! This little cutie now answers to "cheese" hahaha. Love this kid!

Last, but certainly not least, Spring semester started which means one semester closer to being DONE!!! Hurray!

Although it was a boring week, it was nice to have things slow before the craziness starts again!!!

Hope everyone has a wonderful week!
