you should know



not gonna lie, i never thought i would be one to be in on this blog-a-thon // get to know you Q&A. but little miss hunter kindly tagged me as one of her lovelies. as if you don't already know me, and who knows who even reads my blog... i'll try to think of new things you may not know.

1. tell us the dirty deet's from your first kiss.
goodness me, i don't kiss and tell ;) HA yeah right! what girl kisses and doesn't tell? i was fifteen when i had my first kiss. i know, i know, awful example i'm being. what is even worse is that my parents (my mom) told me she would give me one thousand dollars if i waited until i was 16. *insert hands shaking on a deal* you guys, i was doing SO GOOD too! hahahaha okay, no i really wasn't. i had just turned fifteen on the fifteenth of october. yes, my golden birthday. WOOO! anywho. turned fifteen, on the fifteenth, and fifteen days later, wait... sixteen days later on halloween i had my first kiss. nothing special after that. my best friend maggie threw her first boy // girl party. we were all dressed up, thinking we were the coolest girls ever because all the cute guys were there. and... *smooch!*  the boy i had quite the crush on slipped a little kiss onto my fifteen year old lips behind the wall. how romantic right?! (i'm laughing as i write this, it was lame guys) oh and no money. i'm not sure what would have been better... the kiss... or the money. (i'm not an awful person, i promise!)

2. someone you want to thank- right here, right now.
i have been in a really lovey dovey mood lately. probably because i'm in love with one special mr. there is a blog i follow. it's called her and him. it's one of, if not my favorite blog. she writes the most... i don't think if there is a good word for it... but she writes to her hubby every now and again. awhile back she wrote a post thanking him, it said... 
"Kevin, ...thank you for the adventure of being with you always brings.

...for the two years worth of letters from you, that I love to reread reread and reread.

...for your teddy bear soft heart.

...for your passion and love for the gospel.
...for never eating any of my hot cheetohs because of your fear of having red fingers.
...for being so patient and sympathetic with me.
...for always making me feel like a million bucks.
...for nights like tonight that make me so weak at the knees.



...for being mine for eternity."

after reading that post, and ever since then, i have made and remade a list. a thank you to my future. soooo.... 
colton, ....thank you for making our past a story and our future a fairytale.
...for your dedication to the gospel and the Lord.
...for being my reason, my level head, my rock.
...for spoiling me with your big heart.
...for loving your mother so much and treating her like the most perfect thing on earth
...for telling me how much you love me every chance you get.
...for making my heart melt with every word you say.

sorry for the sappy, love drunk words. if you want to read more click herehere, and here.

3. what are your fitness secrets?
easy, i have NONE! i need some though. but come on now... all jokes aside. how hard it is to be // feel pretty these days? it seriously feels like the most impossible thing in the world to be completely honest. at least to me it does. AND how awkward is it to go to the gym? especially in orem // provo utah. i literally hate it! but, this next year i'm doing it. i am determined to find some workouts that i can actually stand. that i will actually want to go to the gym and do. who knows what it will be. lifting? probably not. running? i'm really considering it. yoga? yeah, that! as my best friend lex always says "skinny people do yoga, and we are going to be skinny dammit!" and on that note, good luck skinny people! WE CAN DO IT!!

4. what is your absolute favorite picture? of you, your significant other, anyone.



oops... was that two?

5. what is a talent you wished you had?
two. to be better at blogging. more like to be more creative. i will never be hunter. or any of you crazy crafty people out there, but i'm working on it! and the other... i don't talk much about. so bare with me. many may know that i am a dancer and i sing. yet, many don't know that i wish to be better. i have this image in my head- it's more like a mini motion picture of me dancing. dancing and moving in the most breath-taking way. i have this talent that i am unexplainably grateful for. but there is a wish, or a dream to be better. i wish that i could have // would have kept dancing through high school instead of cheering. although i loved cheering in high school and being involved and again i am grateful for that opportunity. i often picture life differently. i wished i had the talent // skill set to be better than i am. same with my singing. these two pieces of my life are so much apart of me. i can't go a second without seeing that motion picture in my head of myself dancing, or actually dancing on the spot. there is always a song playing in my head. i'm always trying to figure out the harmonies in my car while driving by myself. i wonder what could have been. and i'm not sure if that's okay... but i'm human so i think it is. it's hard for me to say all this or even put it in words because i have so much to be grateful for and I AM. my life is truly filled with so many blessings. but there is something inside of me that is missing. i'm just trying to find and filled that missing space. i guess i have a wish to create more depth in my talents.

well, now you know a little more about me. maybe you already knew everything. who knows. i am hoping you can better see who i am and come to know me in a different light.
