The cat's outta the bag.

This day and time next week, I will be stationary in lovely San Fran sitting next to my best fran. Although, sitting is most likely not what we will be doing. Really, who knows what mischief we will encounter. It's always a ridiculous fun time when I'm there or when we're together period. I very excite! :) I wonder if a lesbian will fall in love with me/my dance moves this time around! Most likely, it's hard not to ;) kidding, kind of. I'm probably going to do the Bernie dance like I did last weekend at like 6 pm at the bar and no one will know what I'm doing. It's going to be great. 

Cali count down: 7 days!! 

I have some other fun and exciting news! No, I am not pregnant, no I am not engaged. Why does everyone look at me like I'm going to say one of those things when I tell them I have exciting news? Joel and I are moving to Colorado! Whoop Whoop! I love my life! When we were in Spain, we talked about moving in together and Joel mentioned moving away somewhere sweet. Yes, I am willing and yes, I think it would/will be amazing for us to do as a couple. Luckily, I work for a company that is literally e v e r y w h e r e. It was one of the first things I did, look to see if there were Kindercares in Colorado. And like I thought, just in Denver, there are a handful. Yayy! Soo, we are shooting to live in Denver. I've been chatting with our friends who already live there and I fall in love with the idea more and more and think about our life there every day! I always say this but don't really mean it, liiiife, hurry up! We are shooting for the beginning of November because we both have wayy too many things going on this summer. And Joel will be gone the entire month of October in Alaska and Nashville. So I will be spending one last Halloween with all my amazing friends here and then we will be off on our adventure! Why Colorado you ask? Here is my answer: adventure, amazing weather, change, awesomeness, mountains. Joel has been there many a time and I have never been! But I have never heard anyone say one bad thing about it and I have no doubt in my mind that I will fall in love immediately. 

This is going to be me...

 ....minus the two girls and plus my boyfriend :)

Cheers to life!

Here's to you, Kels.

Life is so crazy. 
I've literally been just staring at that sentence. I don't know what else to write. I don't know what to do, what to say, how to feel. How to feel anything but utter sadness. This is probably the reason I'm not balling my eyes out, shock. Is this real? Has this really happened? Yes, but why? Today, I lost a sweet friend of mine, Kelsey Lee. This girl was amazing. I've only known Kels for a handful of years and it wasn't enough. Kelsey was a person who literally lit up any room with her smile and that amazing, infectious laugh she had. It, some of the times, was funnier than the joke. It boggles my mind how fast life just ends. I told my mom that I had just talked to Kels yesterday. She asked what we talked about and I responded, "life." My mom asked if she was happy and I know she was. She still is. That was the thing about Kelsey, her amazing, positive attitude about life. Gosh, I could go on and on about all the things I've fallen in love with about her over the few years that I've known her and I just feel so sad for her family and friends she was close with, closer than me. Kelsey, you are amazing. You are beautiful inside and out and there is nobody else I would rather share my name with! Life is so unfair at times. Here's to you babe! I can't wait to see you again some day, take care of us, will you?

Everyone up there now, is spoiled to have you at their side. 

Kels squared being themselves. 

I would have been happy to have these pictures never resurface ;) Only for you Kelso.

 You will be missed forever, lady!

Helloo May, you little hottie!

Today is great. And it's Monday, do you believe it?
I have pretty much an entire new class of babies at work. Some older unhappy, frustrating ones have been shipped up to toddlers! Wew! My room has an entirely different, happy and relaxed atmosphere. What a wonderful way to start the week, if I don't say so myself! 

One thing that is not so fantastic: I have no idea what the H I did with my blog and I have no idea how to change it back. There are no options, at least that I can see. Caitlin, help. Date soon. We can get a wine buzz and you can teach me all you know about blogging, cause clearly I am still struggling. I strive to be at your blog level ;) 

Tomorrow is May already! Really, where does time go? This year has already been amazing and after an absolutely perfect birthday weekend, I am confident in saying my 24th year has great things coming! I feel so lucky, because I say this at every birthday and on every birthday, I think to myself, "Wow, it actually was my best year yet!" Keep the awesomeness coming, life! 

May excites me 100% percent for one (well most likely more) reason(s). And that reason is because May is the month that I go to San Fran to visit one of my amazing best frans every year. How lucky I am to actually have a job that persists that, enough money to get myself out there, especially when I pretty much live pay check to pay check, and friends out there who are wonderful reasons for a vacay to Cali!

 

Cali count down: 18 days! 

Happy High.

I am just high on life right now. 
I had the best birthday. 
I have the best friends & family. 
I have one wonderful boyfriend. 
It has been one, extremely awesome April, if I don't say so myself.  
And that is all she wrote. 

 :Awesome news coming soon.

Smiley face.

That's me. 

Because I'm going going back back to Cali Cali.

Thank you mother dearest for helping me find the cheapest and most convenient flight :) What would I do without you? 

I know. Struggle. 

Cheesssiiinnnnn 

Month # 4.

Because every time I get on here, write an extremely long post, and then delete it
 because I think it's pointless, this will be short. 


Yayyy, it's April-- Birthday month! Should have posted this 11 days ago! ;) 

And today is my great gpa's 94th birthday! Imagine living for 94 years. Happy Birthday Clifford. I love that you are still with us and still use the 'F' word!
 

"If you smile a lot when you're young, when you're old, you'll have wrinkles in all the right places"

I am having such a good day.

I just want to throw a fist full of glitter into the air right now. 

And with this rainy weather? I don't even understand my happiness and awesome feeling of being content. But, I refuse to question why, happiness in general. 

Ah, I needed today. After two hours of work this morning, lucky me, I got to go home to Joel's house and have a personal day. My 3 and a half hours of sleep last night just didn't allow me to bring my 'A' game to work today. 

We need rain so bad. Let's get rid of this yellow, gross looking grass and turn it green, shall we, Mother Nature? I am fine with a rainy day every once and awhile, I actually love them. My favorite kind of day, in fact, is right before it rains. When it's cooler outside, its gloomy, cloudy, but comfortable in temperature all around. Although, this is not today, today the rain is hangin out. The skies actually look like they are clearing up now that I'm looking outside. Gosh, I haven't moved from this spot for far too long. Easy to do when I'm feeling so fantastic right now. I love that I'm feeling fantastic right now. 

Here, things to make you feel the way I'm feeling :) :)

And most importantly,

 period.
