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?!

13 Reasons I like Todd..

Warning: Picture Overload

Reason #1. He looks super cute even when he isn't ready to be photographed.

Reason #2. He looks at me cute like this..

Reason #3. He is silly.

Reason #4. He can turn a simple picture, funny. For example..He put our tree-topper, Tinkerbell on my shoulder, thus making this picture funny.

Reason #5. He likes to take pictures with my bum.

Reason #6. He makes me feel all special..

Reason #7. I love to hold those hands of his.

Reason #8. It was his idea to do an "awkward" picture.

Reason #81/2. I LOVE his face in this..Look at it!

Reason #9. When he seems to be suffocating me with his massive arms, he puts them down right before I pass out.

Reason #10. He likes us to show off our boot-tays!

Reason #11. When his booty isn't being shown off good enough, he makes us redo the picture to show it off better.

Reason #12. He plays with my hair..

#13. He. Is. Good. And it pleases me that he made the effort to get in the picture, too.

I'm a lucky girl..Todd is great. :)

My Celebrity Look-Alikes..I guess..?

HERE is the real-life me.

Here is who my best friend & my daddy sometimes say I look like..

Audrey Hepburn

Today at church a lady in my ward told me I look like her..

Heidi Klum

I teach the 11 & 12 year olds in primary and today in class they told me I look like "Bella" from Twilight..

Kristen Stewart

Do you guys see it?? Cause.. I sure don't!

7 Things

MILEY

Say what you will about her.. I love her. She is one of my favorites. True. Story. And as time continues to pass I only love her more.

1. I swear half her songs she songs are directed to me and my personal life. Thanks Miley.

2. Whenever Party in the USA or 7 Things (hence the title) come on I think of Todd. Because he likes to sing & dance to them.

3. Hannah Montana is pretty much hilarious. I laugh my bum off at every episode even if its one I've seen ten billion times.

4. I love her hair. Miley's.. Not Hannah's..

5. She is quite accomplished for her young age, thats cool.

6. This one is silly BUT I follow her on twitter and she will put pics on of herself and say stuff like.. I'm really not that skinny, they did lots of work to my legs, arms, stomach, etc. to make them smaller or more tan. It helps me feel better about myself.

7. She was smart enough to legally change her name from Destiny Hope to Miley. Smart girl.

Really?!

So..

Apparently SHS's Christmas dance is comin' up and the boys are beginning to ask the girlies..

I would know this because..

I got asked..

Better yet..I got asked by a COMPLETE stranger.

Remember how I am graduated and I have a boyfriend and I don't know him?!

Is this weird to you, too?!

A week or so ago I got a text from ***3 that said the following;

You'd think it's lame

Like I'd want fame

To ask you uncomplex

To the cristmas dance through text

But I promise you

I will pull through

Stay tuned baby

To see who I be

(nice spelling of Christmas, yeah? I thought that added a romantic touch.)

I read this and I'm like what?! And how in the heavens am I supposed to answer this boy? I didn't even know who he was and you can't reply to ***3! So whatever.. Its not like I was gonna say yes anyway.

A few days later he texted me with that same anonymous number and told me his name. I looked him up in the yearbook and I have ZERO clue who he is. Perhaps I'm rude but I just decided to ignore it, I wasn't going to say yes and I just thought if I never answered him he'd get the hint and ask some other girl. Hopefully one in high school, who is single, etc.

My plan was working perfectly but then guess who called me last night? Yup. The boy.

After finding out I apparently had a class with him and talked to him often (oops) I kindly told him no and that he should ask a girl in high school because it means so much to a girl to be asked to a dance and I went to my senior christmas dance, etc. After a TWENTY minute awkward phone convo I was pretty sure I had got rid of him, then he was like..

"Well I'll just ask you to Sweethearts!"

Uhhh?!?! Crap...

Lucky me, yeah?!

heeheehee

Sometimes Todd will look on my blog and laugh at it and make me feel silly.

So I decided to drop him a little surprise for next time he looks..

bahahahaha

Oh cute Todd

What you do on a whim..

Our little puppy WALTER..

Has a new buddy..

SULLEY

Is he not the cutest little puppy you've ever seen?

I think he is adorable.

Mom and I went to Zupas today and nearby a man was selling two dogs, Sulley and a pug. I saw Sulley and my heart melted. I KNEW he was my puppy. By some miracle my mom actually agreed to pull over so I could talk to the man about the sweet little black puppy. Then guess what I did? I bought him. Me. My very own money. 100 bucks. Yeah, baby.

Sulley is half lab, half Australian Shepherd and is 7 weeks old. He also weighs 8 pounds.

He is my love.

The girls LOVE him, too.

Mom and dad.. They're getting used to it..

Just Kidding..

Okay, quick update. My hip is NOT dislocated.

Instead.. It is sprained.

AND

My IT-Band is all whacked out.

IT-Band, for those of you, like me, who don't know, is apparently the sinew (or something) going down my leg and I just messed that all up.. My dad says sinew is little muscle strand type things..

Obviously I don't quite get what is wrong with me..

All I know is I've been on crutches for FAR too long and I think my armpits are starting to hurt more than my hip.

And there is your update! :)
