I heard one of my all time favorite songs on the way home tonight I hope you dance.  My daddy gave me a book containing the lyrics with the single on a cd when I was little.  I LOVED IT I STILL LOVE it.  Tonight it reminded me of how I haven't literally danced in 5 years now. (I'm getting super old...) and even worse I haven't figuratively danced in quite some time.  I haven't slowed down to take a breath in ages it seems--- well its only been 4 months---ONLY---ugh.  Since the madness began of working 6 days a week and going to school full time. 
It also became an emotional night when I read this.  I think that my life is so terrible because I'm not pregnant after 3 1/2 years of "not preventing" while at the same time not "trying and calculating, etc."  to get pregnant.  My life is not terrible compared to the one speaker who lost her husband. Favorite new quote..."Even with the Lord's greatest blessings promised to us, the most difficult trial for us as mortals is then 'waiting for eventually.. to actually come.''  How true is this and sooooo on point in my life??? You have no idea.  I have a problem and that problem is not being able to be patient, to trust in my Heavenly Father and to stop and smell the roses and just enjoy the "simple" life that my husband and I share together before things change to a different more complicated life when our children finally join us.  The more and more I think about it(which is like 75% of my day), the more I realize that this is the one thing that comes as a challenge to Brad and I.  We have never struggled in our relationship.  We have never been that poor newlywed couple struggling to get by.  We have never had to miss out on any vacations, having the internet, cable, going out to do whatever we wanted.  We have never struggled with believing in the gospel.  We have both had great jobs and have been able to fully support ourselves.  We both have an education and are pursuing more for the future of our family. We have lived very comfortably without sacrificing much (except for a washer and dryer the past 2 years)... :). But getting pregnant seems to be the one thing that Heavenly Father needed to remind us that everyone has their challenges in life or to remind us that the best things in life are the ones that we apparently need to wait a long long long time to be blessed with.  Either way I know I will be a mother one day.  I know that that is my true calling in life and the one thing that I would give everything up for.  I need to start refocusing my life on the things that do matter.And just because I will most likely be the last person to get pregnant out of my family and friends... NO ONE BETTER USE THE FOLLOWING NAMES FOR THEIR CHILDREN!!!!! 1. Sutton2. Eleanore3. Donnovan4. Densley If you think I am crazy about getting pregnant... I'm even crazier about naming my babies. Most of you probably hate the names anyways... and who knows how I'll feel once I am pregnant but I've gotta protect the ones I love for now! :) 
 
Well sorry for the longest schpill from my brain ever.  I just had a lot of emotions tonight and had to get them written down.  Hope that everyone out there is doing well! and good news... Brad and I leave for our cruise in t-minus 18 days.  HALLELUJAH!!!!!! I have never needed something more in my life. Also on that note... Nessa and Shadoe are getting sealed in 19 days!!! yay!!! I can't wait! Utah.Vegas.California.Mexico. HERE WE COME!
My VT (one of my few best friends in this lovely Tucson) gave me a little lesson on scripture study last night.  And let me tell you... Reading my scriptures is the last thing I want to do on the 3 days of the week where I leave at 7:30 am and don't get home until 8:30 pm, let alone the days that I just do a normal shift. When I get home, I want to let my mind be vacant. I don't want to think or let alone move.  But I do realize how important this simple gospel principle is.  So from now on I will be reading. Even if its just 1/2 of a chapter.

#2-MY JOB

I am a pharmacy technician. I count pills and deal with crazy, angry, and sick people all day! haha it's a wonder why i am going nuts too! jk. In high school i wanted to do something that would help me to have a great paying job immediately. The only way to do so was to go to salt lake community college tech center for 1/2 of each day of my senior year. I decided on pharmacy. My job entails... taking your prescription... inputting the information the dr lovingly wrote to me to give to you.... then getting the medication and putting it in a bottle with a label on it. interesting right?? maybe.. but it's not what i wanted to do in the pharmacy industry. I wanted to research drugs. I wanted to discover a new drug that cured cancer. After i watched my grandma b. struggle basically all my teenage life i knew i wanted to help people and research something to stop more people from going through what my grandma went through. I guess I'm doing one part... helping people... but there's just something missing! so i go through the motions of everyday life in THE BOX aka the pharmacy that i work in. I think that my immune system has become much stronger...except for last spring/summer when i got strep twice... I have to say though i am suprised with all of the tamiflu rx's i filled last winter that I DIDN'T end up with the swine flu... my hands definitely suffered from all of the sanitizer that i used. but it was worth it! This job has supported brad and i so i dont regret doing it, but i need something more now! Things i wish people knew about pharmacy.... 1.WE ARENT MCDONALDS. if we do our job too quickly mistakes happen and people could seriously end up really injured. that's why when i tell you its going to be 30 minutes don't rush me. I know you're sick, in a hurry, or just plain impatient-but it is pretty dang important that i do my job right. 2.EVERY INSURANCE PLAN IS DIFFERENT. just because there are a select few major insurance corporations namely... medco, humana, caremark, blue cross... doesn't mean that everyone that holds, lets say a medco insurance card.. has the exact same copay. So i'm sorry that i can't magically tell you how much your prescription is going to cost just because you say... "but i have medco insurance"... THAT MEANS NOTHING TO ME!!! :) 3.WHEN YOU STARE AT ME AND STAND RIGHT OUTSIDE THE PHARMACY... it only makes me want to do my job 10 times slower because you are really bugging me! give me my space, time, and be nice and i will get you out the door very quickly! 4. EVERY PRESCRIPTION GOES THROUGH A PROCESS... this is so that no mistakes happen. the process... 1. i take your rx and scan the image into my computer. 2. i type the prescription-date, drug, quantity, days supply, directions, refills, dr info. 3. i double check everything-you try reading dr's handwriting someday... 4. the pharmacist checks my work. 5. i fill the rx. 6. the pharmacist checks that i filled it correctly and checks the typed portion again.... helpful to know??? maybe next time everyone will be more patient at the pharmacy counter! 5. I KNOW WHEN PEOPLE LIE. i have become very good at being a lie detector. the fbi should hire me! 6. WE CLOSE FOR LUNCH. get over it. the pharmacist at my store works a 12 hour shift and only gets 30 minutes for lunch. I don't see you getting angry at the doctor for taking an hour lunch during a 7-8 hour work day. its 30 minutes people during the same time everyday so it shouldn't be a suprise to you! 7.DOCTORS DO NOT KNOW THE PRICES OF MEDICINE. I hate hate hate when people come in and tell me that the doctor told them their rx would be 4 dollars. I want to tell them to go back to their dr. and say that i said their appointment would only be 15 dollars. I'm really not an angry person! I promise! Hope you've enjoyed my post about my job... :) On a lighter note.. HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!! Today bradley and i celebrated our 4th v-day. we stayed home made a nice dinner and watched a movie. He gave me roses and chocolate covered strawberries along with katy perrys cd and a love cd by glee. Such a sweety poo. haha I wrote him a letter in one of those giant cards-filled valentines with love.. and got him an additional x box controller. ( he and his friends insist he needs 4 of them) I love my bradley! He is so sweet to me and has had to put up with a lot since moving here. He is so understanding and knows just how to make me smile! I am so grateful to have him in my life! I love his cute smile, amazing blue eyes, and his outgoing personality. We have grown so much closer together over the past 6 months and i wouldn't trade anything for the time i get to spend with him! LOVE YOU BRADLEY!

Really

I'm 22!!!! yesterday was my birthday. bradley made me a delicious breakfast. at work my coworker brought balloons and hats for us to wear so EVERYONE knew it was my birthday. it was very nice! thanks berenice!!! after i got home bradley gave me my present which was a cute white coat and new work pants from victoria's secret. love them all!!! we then went to dinner at on the border. it was delicious! thanks bradley! On a side note..... Really... Really... Really... That is my feeling at the moment.. actually for like the past little bit... here's why....no offense to anyone... just my feelings!!! I'm underpaid and can't do ANYTHING about it. time to start looking for a new job i suppose. Is like EVERYONE i know pregnant???? REALLY... like 20 people i know just announced it. guh..I am really happy for people at the same time though! I hate sudafed and its laws. some lady today almost jumped across the pharmacy counter to kill me because she had to show id and sign to buy sudafed. REALLY lady i don't work for the government, i'm not a lawmaker. all i'm sayin is good thing she didn't have a gun. people here stink. like literally stink like dirt, smoke, b.o., alcohol... and every other dirty smelling thing ever. REALLY... take a bath, stop drinking, smoking and whatever other filth you live in.

So sometimes I randomly pull out this old tweety bird box from my closet. It is my most prized possesion. Why you may ask.... because it's where i keep my journals from my entire life.. I wish that I could put all of what i am feeling right now into this blog post, but it would probably take the ENTIRE night to do so. So i will do what i can beware my mind is going to wander and reminisce... AND GO!

I had the best high school experiences ever. PERIOD. i was involved in school had the BEST friends and liked the MOST boys i think anyone has ever liked... i crushed on guys like crazy... and i DO NOT REGRET IT!!! moving has made me realize just how much i love my home, my family and my friends. tonight this is focusing on my friends. i really have the funniest friends. Trista-hilarious because she's Miss America and proper-she keeps me in line

Vannessa- i have to admit i just like making her laugh cause it makes me laugh. but seriously she is hilarious too in her own special way-especially the way she says things and yeah you just have to know her....

Jessica-i wrote in my journal that she does a crazy spanking dance... ask her to do it for you... you might die.

Ashlee- even though i rarely talk to her she makes a lot of silly noises and faces and is very blonde....

anyways.... my junior year was the best ever. well maybe senior year its hard to tell. either way

I MISS HIGH SCHOOL!!!!

in my box of reminiscing is a song i started writing.. oh boy.. before graduating... here we go

i wanted to write about friendship, but nothing comes to mind

except memories and laughter that are too great to fill these lines.

They're better left as thoughts than in a letter to say

how much i'll miss good times and crazy nights

even bad things too cause all of them brought us together

pink pythongs livin true!

of course recently there was spring break in st george

and further back our unforgettable summer with boys we now hate

we danced so many nights away

whether at homecoming, out on the streets

or del taco parking lots....

and thats all i have.... cause i quit hahha...

I don't even know where to begin. i'm stuck so i'm going to do this writing thing i used to do in english class. you pick a word and then let your mind do the rest... and go...

the word is...ok i've sat here for like 5 minutes and can't think of a word haha i'm so lame.

but it used to be my favorite thing to do.

moving on.

in high school i had a best friend named pasha.

she came to life and made my life complete.

she made vannessa pee her pants.

she basically was the life of the party.

the end.

some of the things i remember loving about being in high school. i could be the most random person and no one cared. it was the best thing ever. i got to know so many people

my friends were probably pretty embarassed of me. here are the reasons why...

i loved to pay in change haha

i was completely boy crazy and would point out cute ones wherever we went.

i always wanted to go and talk to the cute ones.

i had a new crush like every week/day.. maybe a few in the same day...

i would turn into pasha quite often

i didn't care what people thought about me

i did what i wanted i'm serious

i dance pretty crazy(imagine pasha saying that)

I LOVED STUDIO 600 WAY BEFORE IT BECAME POPULAR

AND WANTED TO GO ALLLLL THE TIME!!!!

well i really need to go to bed... more reminiscing to come tomorrow. maybe...

So I just read this amazing love story @ writingrainbows.blogspot.com I found this girls blog one day and I just love reading it!!! So go read her love story its sooooooooooo cute! Anyways after reading hers I decided I wanted to write MY Love story.... here we go..

The summer of my life was coming to a close, my friends had all moved away to college, and Trista and I were left alone. Trista, Vanny, Jessica, Ash, and I had spent like every night together that summer and I learned a lot and played hard! I don't think I would've been ready for what was soon coming if I hadn't have had the experiences I had over those short months of June, July, and August. I would say I had become this independent, confident, happy-go-lucky, 'I do what I want' type of girl and for the first time I was single... For the first time I knew exactly WHO I WAS. I loved life, I knew the gospel was true! and... I lived by the following quote...

"Laugh when you can, apologize when you should, and let go of what you can't change. Take chances. Tell the truth. Date someone totally wrong for you. Say no. Spend all of your cash. Fall in love. Get to know someone random. Be random. Say I love you. Sing out Loud. Laugh at a stupid joke. Cry. Tell someone how much they mean to you. Let someone know what they are missing. Laugh until your stomach hurts. Live Life. Kiss slowly, Play Hard, Forgive quickly, Take chances, Give everything, and most of all have no regrets! Life's too short to be anything but HAPPY!"

In high school everyone always said that I would be the first of my friends to get married... and what do you know... I was... Probably because I was always with a guy whether it was a good decision or not... I was really boy crazy... But the relationships and "dating" that I did have set up my life so perfectly. So let me take you back to 2007. To the beginning of my Love Story...

The night officially began @ a back to school dance @ UVSC... I love dancing and I don't care how stupid I look when I do so... just ask my friends... So I was surprised when guys wanted to dance with me especially on this occasion. However, One amazing looking guy happened to step into the maddness and ask me to dance. I am ashamed to say that I did walk away from him after a few seconds. :( He told me before I ran away, that if I saw him again we should hook up! haha I was into being a big flirt with the boys and playing them so I said yeah... ok......... and ran off.

As the dance went on I didn't run back into this amazing guy.. UNTIL Trista and I were leaving. I know that I looked horrible and he was all sweaty, but we exchanged numbers and names..oops i forgot his name! :) and about an hour later he texted me! My heart started pounding and I got SO nervous!!! I left my friends to join this mysterious man hoping that I wouldn't get kidnapped! I finally ended up at his friends apartment and we put on the movie Talledega Nights. I felt so COMFORTABLE with him. More comfortable than I had ever felt before in my life. We started talking and never stopped. I could talk to him forever and not get bored or tired of it. I felt like we had known each other forever. He asked me if I thought I would kiss him before I got there. I answered honestly.. YES.. (Like I said I was EXTREMLY confident).. and then... He kissed me. It was so simple. . The best part is that I broke a bet he had going with his friend's mom-to not kiss any girls. Apparently I was worth it to him.

Our first official date: was with a married couple. on a sunday.

going to see the Joseph Smith Movie.

I know what you're thinking. We were on the right path to a fast Mormon engagement.

That day I realized that I was beginning to fall deep into like with him. My dreams were truly coming true.

It all started when he opened the car door for me & held my hand in the car.

During the next couple weeks I learned a lot about my Bradley...

His favorite movie is Top Gun, He is hilarious, He's a gentleman, loves shopping with me, Sports are his passion... especially BYU at the time, he has an amazing family, He gets along with practically everyone. We officially became a couple at the Utah State Fair on September 6, 2007 when I sorta forced it on him...

After that things just took off!

My parents adored him along with the rest of my family. Which was a big deal! We spent everyday together and fell more in love everyday. Bradley first said the 'L' word to me in October of 2007 just a few weeks after we had become official.. a few weeks later we began slowly talking about marriage, and then one day in February or March he mentioned that maybe we should start looking at rings! It was one of the best days of my life! Would I really be marrying the man of my dreams and my best friend????

On April 5, 2008 Bradley set up a wonderful night. We went out to dinner with lots of friends and then went to my parents house to watch a "movie". I would soon find out that this movie was a fraud and a few minutes in a homemade video by Brad popped onto the screen. I will always have this with me!!! After the intro with the movie Bradley got down on one knee and pulled out my ring and a dozen roses!!

We began making wedding plans and set the date of July 31st 2008. We were married for time and all eternity and have lived happily ever after ever since! I know that bradley would do anything for me and I the same for him! I'm so glad that I met him! My life would be sooooo different if I hadn't and I love my life!

Things on my mind...

...General Conference... I can't wait for the ensign to come out ...Blogging... I'm OBSESSED with crafty blogs right now.. some of my favorites... littlebirdiesecrets..homemadebyjill...latterdaychatter... and the website.. howdoesshe.com I want to be crafty.

Make a quiet book... when i have kids.. Make a church ABC book.. as seen on latterdaychatter.. Revamp old furniture.. Make Nessa way cute stuff for baby chance... and everything else on all of those websites... ...NESSA'S Baby Shower in December!... I can't wait to host Nessa's shower... I am literally obsessed with it.. maybe too much according to brad.

I need to post some recent pics! So I will do so later... because I will be blog stalking... :)

BRADLEYS FIRST BIG DAY OF LAW SCHOOL

Isn't he just the cutest????

He almost snuck out the door without a picture, but you know me.. I'm trying to document very well our little adventure here. I thought this was a must!

FINALLY HOMESICK...

I began to really miss home when...

Bradley made new single law school friends...

Bradley studies for long hours in "the Cave"(our 2nd Bdrm)

I started work and am the low man on the totem pole... i used to be near the top... :(

I can't just hop in the car and drive to the parents house..

or cafe rio... I miss cafe rio...

I realized everyone who lives near my work practically lives in poverty and they don't have the best hygeine..

My mom told me she saw someone that looked like me and started crying...

We went to Mesa to the temple... and saw all the churches there and grass and pretty homes... and....

a HOBBY LOBBY!!! too bad its 90 minutes away... :(

Things I like....

Our scoot scoot... its fun to ride on the back..

Bradley plays games all the time with me now!!!! :)

I have started cooking... well ok just this past week.. but its a start!!!

I can go to the pool any time i want to.

I work next to a dollar store... so i buy my favorite...

CODE RED MOUNTAIN DEW....

ALL THE TIME!!!

The Tucson mall has this way awesome store that is color coded in jewelry and purses... so if i'm in the mood for PINK jewelry and a matching PINK purse I know exactly where to go... ITS AWESOME...

TuCsOn

Well we have made our move and been here for almost a month... wow I suck at blogging... anyways... this is a picture of the beautiful desert sunset. GORGEOUS! We haven't done much of anything the past couple weeks because my job transfer didn't go through as planned, but I am now finally working at least a few days a week. We have spent A LOT of time together that's for sure. Lots of time at the pool and on our couch ha. We've gone to Phoenix a few times for baseball games and to the temple. It's so wierd not having 5 temples within 20 minutes. We definitely took them for granted. I decided that we will live in Mesa if we stay in Arizona. It was like Utah... churches... beautiful neighborhoods with grass.. ah heaven... anyways back to reality! We absolutely love our ward. Tons of young couples and a few men are in law school so Brad has enjoyed their advice. They sure have kept us busy though.. so far we have cleaned the church, I said the prayer in sacrament meeting, Brad spoke with a high councilman, and we got callings! Ha We are both going to be in scouts... I don't know how I feel about this one cause I know NOTHING about scouting so I hope I can help these boys! Anywho... We've loved it here so far and are all settled in!

Our 2nd Anniversary

July 31, 2010

So... I got home from work on Friday the 30th and Brad said to pack a bag D and we were off... There are lots and lots of resorts in Tucson... it's paradise... and he booked a night for us at the Omni Resort. WAY NICE!!! We arrived and went to hang out at the pool (we do lots of that these days). After ordering smoothies.. chocolate banana for me..mm.. and hangin out for a while we went back to the room to get ready for a fancy dinner at the steakhouse they have at the resort. BEST steaks we have EVER eaten. Bradley was embarassed to ask the server to take our picture and so he made sure she knew it was our anniversary so it didn't look as bad! After dinner we hung out again at the pool in the cabanas and started swimming again when it began to rain! yay!!! When we went back to our room someone had left us chocolate covered strawberries and champagne and a note to have a happy anniversary! How sweet!!! We love being treated so well! The next morning Brad had flowers delivered to the room he is such a sweetheart! I can't believe its already been 2 years! It's gone by so fast and I've loved every minute of it. I'm so excited for our next couple years here in Tucson!

Wonderful Night

Tonight Brad and I were able to go out to dinner with my G&G Larson. I am seriously so happy for the times that we are able to spend with them. Last summer I gave them both a journal/personal history book full of questions to answer about their lives and I'm happy to report that they both have completed their personal histories. I am so grateful to have these histories. They are fun to read and so interesting and I have learned so much about them. It's also great because they were able to share funny stories about my dad and siblings. I can't believe how much of my grandpa I see in my dad and sean. I love my family so much!!! AHH!! I only regret not being able to have my Grandma Belliston (my mom's mom) complete a journal... but then again I was in high school I guess I didn't know any better. I have gotten some background on my Grandpa Belliston, but definitely need to talk to him more! I am so grateful that Brad and I can share the experience that we have of getting to know them and their pasts before we move. I will miss my family here the most. Here are some random pictures I have from my high school graduation cause they have my grandparents in them!Couple on far left-G&G Larson-then Aunt Lyn and Uncle Jim, Aunt Wendy, Cousin Collin, Jenna, and G Belliston.

LONG WEEK...finally over..

This week I spent 60 hours of my life standing on my feet in the wonderful business called wal-mart pharmacy... The more time I spend at work the more upset I get with people... seriously i need to get a new job without so many stupid people running around everywhere... here are a few things i witnessed and vow to NEVER do in my life... 1. Put my children on leashes... i don't care what you have to do as far as strapping the kid in the cart but do it just don't put them on a leash!!! 2. If you do put children on leashes... Don't allow your other children to hold the end of the leash therefore giving the child on the leash whiplash everytime they try to run somewhere.. seriously grow up and learn to have control over your children... you think its bad now??? wait until they have their own freaking car... grrrr.. no wonder people are getting more and more stupid... 3. If your child is screaming/crying/having a panic attack in your local grocery store... seriously get them to shut it or get out of the store... there was this kid screaming bloody murder for no joke 20 minutes it was freaking ridiculous and gave me a headache not to mention everyone else in the store. Come on people... I'M WORKING HERE!!!! 4.GET OFF YOUR CELL PHONES!!! seriously it is so rude and makes more more angry everytime I go to help someone and apparently my time isn't as valuable to them as their conversation is... have some RESPECT... I'm trying to give you the right prescription which i would say is pretty important and you can't shut the phone... eh... 5.I'm all for helping people when they need help, but it really bothers me to see people really abusing the medicaid system.. seriously... I know this is harsh but if you get your nails done every week, buy brand name of EVERYTHING, and buy like 5 12 packs of soda everytime you come to get your prescription.... you really need a change of lifestyle... NOT help from the rest of the tax paying people who live check to check. grrr... those are just my two cents about what i see at my job... i think i might start doing this weekly... helps me to vent!!! haha Anyways.. This week should be fun we are having the girls and one boy in our class over for a pizza and movie party for memorizing the articles of faith... at least the first 4... it has sure been a challenge every week... but at least we got four out of some of them! 3 of the girls are like almost finished memorizing them.. they are so smart!!! We love our primary class i will be sooooo sad when we move and have to leave them! Even though they like Brad a heck of a lot more than they like me... Also our friends kandace and joey are getting married! yay! I love going to weddings!!! I have three more to go to this year! I'm so excited! Hope all is well... and you don't think i'm a meanie...

MY FAVORITE SONGS OF LATE

AMERICAN BANG: WILD AND YOUNG I fell in love with a southern girl I gave her wings, but she don't wanna fly no more slow it down.. slow it down.. She wants a ring and she's slamming the door but baby don't cry whatcha in a hurry for slow it down.. slow it down we are wild and young we have just begun slow it down you move a little too fast gotta take a deep breathe and make it last these should be the best days of your life we are wild and young there's no reason to run we are wild and young her freefall came a little out of the blue what happened to the days of doin what we wanted to do slow it down you move a little too fast gotta take a deep breathe gotta make it last these should be the best days of your life ELI YOUNG BAND- GUINEVERE She's got a bumper like a billboard Covered in stickers of her favorite band she's got a handful of records she turns to when she needs to land she's a saturday night parade through the streets that all eyes some to see including me She carries memories around like souvenirs down in her pockets she should've let some go by now but can't seem to drop it says forgiveness ain't nothin but a lifeless tire on the shoulder of her soul that never rolls for as much as she stumbled she's running for as much as she runs she's still here always hoping to find something quicker than heaven to make the damage of her days disappear Just like Guinevere She don't hold on to nothin new for very long yeah she writes you in as just one more tale and then you're gone cause once she fell hard cause she dropped her guard and no one gets to stay its just too late for as much as she stumbled she's running for as much as she runs she's still here always hoping to find something quicker than heaven to make the damage of her days disappear. These songs just get me everytime i hear them! so go listen!!!

Just LIfe!

I feel like Brad and I are continuously growing closer. I love it! Time is flying right on by.. we've been married for 7 months already.. i can't believe it! We bought a couch and ottoman that we absolutely love! Last night was such an amazing night because we were able to laugh and enjoy each other's company and just hold each other! It was sooooooo precious! I love our relationship and who we've become with each other. I hate when Brad has to work late, but i guess we need the money... so oh well... it makes me miss him even more! Life is great and amazing!
