Backwards complements

I'm a bad blogger and I'm sorry...

Seriously though, something happened a little over a week ago, and I didn't even think to blog about it.

A couple of Wednesday's ago I had a doctors appointment, it was an annual eye exam. Nothing too big of a deal. My eyes aren't really that bad, but I do have a hard time seeing things (I'm far sighted if that helps). Well I was due for a new pair of glasses and had some help from one of the workers. I wanted a straight up honest opinion on which of 3 glasses looked better on me.


These are the glasses I ended up getting. I really, really like them!

Fast forward to yesterday evening...
My hair was super straight and I was wearing my new glasses. My brother stopped by to pick something up and talk to my parents. He noticed my new glasses and says, "you look like Courtney now". To me this is the strangest of things. Why? Because to be honest Courtney and I look nothing a like. Yes we look related. But I've never been told I look like Courtney (she's blonde, has green/blue eyes, she's more fair skinned than me and not freckly). I'm so used to being recognized as Christian or Paige's little sister (Paige and I looked like twins as we were growing up Christian and I well let's just say I'm the girl version of him).

I'm not upset with the comment Christian made. I know he didn't mean it as a bad thing. It just caught me off guard is all. Courtney is gorgeous. I'm glad that as I grow older I'm starting to look more like my oldest sister.

What (not) to wear

I briefly mentioned that I'm going on a date this week. I'm clueless on what to wear or not wear.

My date is with someone I've been friends with for a few years now and has actually seen me at my worst (allergic reactions at camp... Actually just camp in general). So I don't want to go over the top with what I wear. However our date will take place in San Francisco ( I've always thought you have to dress up when you go into a big city... Is this true?). We will have dinner and go to a concert.

Do you need pictures of a few items from my closet? Maybe a few outfits that I've thought of?
What do you suggest I wear? Are jeans too casual? Is a nice dress too formal? HELP! I don't know what to wear (or not to wear)!

Meat lovers

Since the beginning of December I have not been a red meat eater. My family usually has some sort of red meat at least 2x a week. Hamburger is fine but steak, tri tip, prime rib, etc. I become nauseous just from the sight and smell of them.


It's literally been 6 months since I've had red meat... Ok well, I'm not counting hamburgers, I love me some hamburgers!!! But in all honesty I have had one meal, a tri-tip sandwich, and it didn't satisfy me like it used to.

I used to crave steak, but now the only way I'll eat red meat is in hamburger form (In-n-Out to be exact).

Have you ever stopped eating/drinking something because you got sick? Or just it doesn't appeal to you anymore?

Anxiously waiting

Have you ever waited? Do you have patience when waiting?

Patience is not in my vocabulary. It's not that I can't be patient, or maybe that is the case... I'm just not good at being patient or maybe it's because I just don't want to be patient. I am an anxious waiter. Does that work? Even if it doesn't work that's who I am!

There are so many things coming up that I am excited about and it seems as if they are never going to happen. My days seem to be so slow! Do you ever feel this way?

Did I not mention what ALL these "things" that I'm looking forward to are? Oops my bad! I know you were are thinking "how rude!". So all this excitement without any patience starts next Friday! (cue Rebecca Black's song...) You know you were thinking it!... Sorry if that song is now stuck in your head! Ok maybe I'm not... Back to what I was saying; next Friday I'm super excited about...

I'm going on a DATE with someone I've known for a couple years now. We are going to San Francisco to have dinner and go to a concert!

In a little over 2 weeks I pack my bags and move to Mission Springs for the summer. Continue praying for me, the staff, campers, and Frontier Ranch! I will post more about this later.

The first weekend that I'm in Santa Cruz, I'm venturing out to watch my cousin graduate with her masters in engineering from Stanford University.

The third weekend in June I will be home because... CHRISTIAN IS FINALLY GETTING MARRIED!!! :)

AND the fourth weekend in June my sisters plus some are celebrating Paige's bachelorette in Santa Cruz! I get to actually be apart of it! :)

When July rolls around a few more exciting events are scheduled for me. Such as the second weekend in July some of the lunch bunch girls (I've known these girls since kindergarten and fourth grade and we try to get together when we're all in town.) are going to be camping(?) in Santa Cruz. I can't wait to join them for little bits during the days/nights that they will be there!

And the third weekend in July I will be home again because... PAIGE IS GETTING MARRIED!!! :)

I'm so excited and ready for the summer! (I'm jumping up and down in excitement... Seriously I am!)

Are you anxious about anything? Are you patient? Are you ready for summer to be here?
