"Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier." -Mother Teresa

 So FIRST of all... I took this picture and loved it because its so fitting for my life.. this boy makes me SO happy.

 :)

& then I was thinking and I realized I hadn't introduced Blake to everyone at home!

So I thought I would do that really fast.. 

This is my cute boyfriend/best friend

He's from Idaho Falls, Idaho & he's going to school to be an optometrist..

which = ALOT of school. So that will = ALOT of fun.

He's one of the most fun sweet people I've ever met..

He's my Return Missionary & he loves God..& when you get to know him that's really obvious. & i love that about him.

He treats me like a princess [ & he even carries me like one when I don't want to walk on the ice and through the snow]

My first encounter with him was when he was running through my friends house shooting water guns in my face...& everyone elses in the world {how sweet is that haha}

:)

we've been dating for 4 1/2 months now! which I'm just as surprised about as anyone.. if you know me very well you know that I'm not the best relationship person in the world!

But this one is different & time has just flown by...

& I love him very very much.

k so on to this week!

So you know those weeks when lots of just wonderful things happen... 

its been one of those weeks...

There was a very stuck car...

& don't worry it was really warm outside while we were getting it unstuck...

[as you can see I had a large contribution to fixing the problem... haha I'm sure they loved the fact that I was taking pictures in the distance.. ]

& there was a very dead battery that we had the privilege of  waiting all day to get to...

 & there was a sick throwing up Hailey... [gross.gross.gross.]

& then everything got better... :)

I asked Blake to take a sick picture with me and he started making deep throated gagging noises and as you can see... really cute faces. haha oh boy. I am one lucky girl.

 This past weekend Blake took me with him to get a fish! & they were just SO pretty I decided I needed one too! So we got TWO beta fishes! The one on the left that is purply/blue is Calypso and it is mine :) and the one on the right that is bright red is Zeus and it's Blakes.. 

[it hates my fish if you were wondering why it was puffed up like that.. don't worry...]

 Yay for our first beautiful pets! :)

You can really only get so creative in college with pets when you're renting apartments and moving around all the time..

 Now for those of you who know anything about Beta's know that even though they are Beauuutifulll... they are SO mean and kill everything! Including each other! So even though we would like them to be friends they  had to have a divider in the middle of their tanks... :)

Maybe someday they will be friends.. but as for now they just puff up whenever they see each other.. so they won't be play mates until they get over their angry fish problems..

 & then to my surprise when we got to Blake's house all of his roommates had fish too! So now.. we have one big fish party going on on there table!

how wonderful. now lets hope we can all keep them alive!

:)

Then last night my house and some of our guys friends that we go to church with went on my THIRD ice skating adventure!
Yup.. i'm getting to be a regular now a days. :)

Luckily Kelly held my hand the whole time and we were getting pretty pro-fess-ional. if you ask me.

jk. I'm still not the best ice skater.. but if I keep practicing as often as I have been it won't be long now i'm sure.

Unfortunately my camera died so I didn't really get any pictures but there were lights frozen under this rink and it was SO amazing!

& then we went back home and after we hung out with Blake and the roommates for a while... Shelby and I stayed up talking until 2 in the morning..
[which is good considering Shelb has 745 class...]
But.. the thing I love about rooming with Shelby and college is that even though it's really stressful and lots of work.. I feel like I get to have a sleepover with one of my best friends every night!
:)
I love Shelby and don't know what I'd do without her!

& i know it's past Valentines Day.. but I just wanted to share with you the present I made Blake. :)

& if you're wondering where I get all my crafting skills.. it's definitely from my sweet momma :)

She has some serious creative skills that I have been blessed to grow up with..

She made me this amazing card and sent it to me for Valentines Day.. :) She's always been really good at making holidays really fun and special for me growing up & it's sad not being home for holidays..

i love you mom!

& I think that's all for now.. I hope everyone is having a wonderful Tuesday morning! I miss you all!

Oh and thank you to great friends that are following my blog. You guys are the best & I just adore you all :)
