one of those days..

It started at church when I was walking outside and dropped my iPhone and scratched up my NEW cover. That was a bummer.

But heck, now I'd take a huge scratch on the actual iPhone if I could erase what happened later that day.

Crap.

I had to take a baby picture of myself to a sweet lady in the Primary Presidency for our primary party next month. My sisters waited in the car while I did this. I got back into the car and began to pull out of their slightly windy driveway.. I swear I was BARELY moving as I backed out, what I thought was carefully, of their driveway but obviously I was doing something wrong.

Cause next thing I know..

::smoosh::

::bang::

::son of a nutcracker::

I murdered their pretty little brick light post. That baby is yanked out of the ground.

There is the damage to my cute car, too. But I don't care so much about it.

I'm just still feeling stupid that I've been driving for how many years and can't seem to back out of a driveway correctly and in result ruined one of the SWEETEST families in the worlds pretty light post thing.

Ugh.

As I said, and lucky for me, this family seriously is some of the sweetest people you'll EVER meet. I went to the door where the lady and her cute little son told me I was fine and it was alright. Then I went outside with the husband where he kept asking me if I was okay and telling me its alright cause things like this happen. They made me feel not as bad. THANK YOU. That was my one piece of luck today.

After we talked and I said sorry for the one thousand millionth time.. I got back into my car where my worried sisters were awaiting me. Yes, I shed tears that my poor sisters had to endure while we took the long way home. Good thing I'm so lucky to have the sweetest sissys. They both were telling me it was going to be alright. I LOVE THEM.

My parents weren't mad either. They said they'd rather have me hit a stationary object than get into some serious wreck. However they aren't happy, either. Oh, good ol' Chelsea and her tremendous luck and driving skills.

Ps I am SERIOUSLY contemplating NEVER driving EVER again.

As Promised..

Temple Square was a success.

It was freezing but worth it.

The lights were pretty.

I got good photographs.

Todd is fantastic.

What can I say.. We're cute.

This one is my favorite!!!!!! Gah.. I'm dying. Its darling.

This was a fun date. Finding parking was horrible, though. I am not even joking when I say it probably took us 30-45 minutes. CRAZY!! We actually totally lucked out though and followed a random car who led us into a parking lot right across the street from the temple grounds. Lucky us. Looking at the lights was so much fun, they are SO pretty and the temple is beautiful as always. We had fun reading these little paper bag looking things that were over fake candles (maybe that made sense?) that had words in different languages on them. Oli-Oli was our favorite, that is Samoan for either Joy or Happiness.. Dang it I can't remember.. Anyway.. After we were frozen solid, we got back into our car and went to Iggy's to eat. SO fun! Then we made the long drive home. We were tired. I fell asleep in the car, whoops!

Ahh..It was good stuff.

I am a very lucky girl, indeed.

I love my sweet boy

Don't you like how we matched the lights so well?!

The Excitement is Built-Up Inside of Me

Ya know how when you're REAL excited for something time seems to go by SOOO dang slow? I'm experiencing this at the moment. (Course maybe thats not so bad, I've been wishing time would slow up lately..Todd leaves on his mission WAY too soon.) Anywho..6:30 tomorrow night simply is not coming soon enough. At that time, I will be driving up to SLC with my beautiful Todd to go see the lights at Temple Square with another couple, Jared and Blaynie. I am not sure why I am choosing to be so excited about this event, but I certainly am. Incredibly excited, guys. I've seen the pretty lights before, but it has always been with my family. I know lots of people who go see the lights with their bf/gf and it has always just sounded so darling to me. I've wanted to do this with a significant other for some time.. So finally, thanks to Todd, I get to be one of those cute couples! :) It is going to be so fun to do something with Todd that we don't typically do on a daily basis, ya know?! Hee yay me! I'll take photos and post my favorites on here soon, k?!
