JULY & AUGUST-lites
6:42 PM
JULY: (cuz I need to catch up)
2. Addressed wedding invitations. Worked on building Larissa a dress for the Miss Uintah Pageant.
4. Happy Fourth of July! Parade in Vernal. Washed the car in the heat and the sun w/ Best Friend and the girls. Fireworks that night.
5. Best Friend's Mom passed away. It was a really hard night.
8. Funeral for Best Friend's mom. Drove to Provo (from Vernal) and unloaded two car loads of my stuff. Drove from there to St. George with the fam. Went to see 'The Little Mermaid', but got rained out after 35 minutes of the show. Lame!
9. Got everything from my grandparent's house and moved it to mine. Cleaned w/ my youngest sister and then drove with her back to Vernal. A fun trip.
16. Cleaned the house with the help of some guys from Best Friend's ward. They were super helpful and the house looked GREAT after. Also moved in two dressers, bought a garbage can (big one) and bookcase, and couch covers. Then I went and got temple clothes and garments. Oh my goodness - so exciting! Went on a date to see Harry Potter 7 with Best Friend. It was amazing to spend the whole day with him. I was SO grateful.
17. Drove from Provo to Vernal in a scary lightning storm - and by scary I mean really scary. It was really flat and the lightning was all around me lighting up the sky. So I sang to myself to not go crazy.

22. Made a second trip to St. George to see 'The Little Mermaid'. This time we made it all the way through and it was awesome! Oh man Oh man.
23. Went through the temple for the first time! It was INCREDIBLE. My parents and grandparents were there, as well as Best Friend of course.
27. Went to the Miss Uintah County pageant. Larissa was awesome and looked incredible in all her outfits. I was super proud of her.
29. Last day of work at Sunburst Day Care. Had breakfast & dinner with a couple of great friends - Jackie (from high school) & Jen (from work). So awesome!
31. Best Friend and I spoke in our church. It went really well. After, we loaded the car and my sister and drove to Provo. There we unloaded the car and then drove to Salt Lake City for a Family Shower (like a bridal shower, but just for family). It was SO fun. We had a great time.
AUGUST:
1. Got our bed from RC Willey. Cleaned and organized the house.
2. Had a girl's night party with my ex-roommates. It was super fun.
3. Helped with prep for the reception (sort of).
4. Got married to my Best Friend in the Manti, UT temple. It was great. Definitely the best day of my life. There will be a post about it soon. Promise. :) I got a letter from my brother serving a mission in Japan that was perfect. It made me cry. Hard. I love him lots and miss him lots, too.
5 - 10. Honeymooning in Las Vegas/Cedar City. It was AMAZING! So fun. Seriously. There will be a post about that later, too. (Without too much detail. No worries. We don't want it to be awkward. ...ha.)
13. Had an open house in Vernal. It was incredible. It was beautiful and it was great to see so many of our (my) friends.
14. Happy Birthday to my Most Wonderful Mother! :)
15. Made a new blog! Check it out: danielandnashelle.blogspot.com.
19. Went to lunch with a good friend of mine from high school, Heather. It was great to see her. Got lots done and then went on a date with my hot **husband**. Ooh.
26. Worked at the BYU Women's Soccer game. It was long and late and fun-ish.
29. First day of classes at BYU. Hooray.
Wow. What a couple of months it has been! And what a long post. Good grief. It's quite a bit ridiculous. Sorry about that. I just wanted to update everything so I would feel better about not having posted for last month. Many apologies. But now I'm all caught up and life is good. Well, it was good anyway. ;) Stick around for some AWESOME posts coming up very soon!

Wondering why I've not blogged ... ... ...?
Well, it's cuz of this crazy little thing called school. I have a feeling it's going to kick my butt this semester. With good reason - it's my second to last, but that means lots of homework and studying. *not yay*
So! I have decided that when I don't have time to blog, but want to, I will do a 'List of Ten'.
**guess what** I've already started!
There is a lovely link in the sidebar that says 'Lists of Ten'. There are (currently) two, but hopefully there will be ten! Get it?
Don't tell me if you don't.
Anyways. Check that out to learn more about me! And share your lists, too. I want to know more about you!
---assuming anyone reads this anyway--- *chirp*
Gotta run to class, but I wanted to share with you. Enjoy!

First Day of School!
9:09 AM
So someday in my life I'm going to figure out how to balance fun and business. But probably not today... or anytime soon to be perfectly honest. For example, right now, I am on my only one-hour break of the day and I am sitting in the open access computer lab on campus ... blogging?! Gotta love it. At least I got my schedule straightened out first.
But enough about that...
Today is my last first day of school! Weird. I am SO excited to finally be done. This is my last year and then I will have my handy-dandy Bachelor's Degree. That makes me feel really old, but really happy all at the same time. It's kinda fancy-feeling.
Anyway! I decided this year it was important that I NOT go to school in pjs every day. Especially cuz I don't have a good excuse (like dance classes - I'm crying inside, just so you know). So I am going to get the motivation to make myself look cute every day by taking a picture every day of my awesomely-awesome school outfits. And Best Friend's too. We look pretty good together, you know. ;)
You have that to look forward to, since there aren't any pictures right now. Yay for awesome changes!
Oh, and best of luck to any of you starting a new school year. I hope you pass your classes and love your life. That's all.

Rainbows in My Cupboard!
12:23 PM
Best Friend and I got an awesome wedding gift from my Grandmother. It was a green dinner set.
We thought it was so cool - and then we got three more! (also green, also from grandma)
Well, we were wandering around Macy's and saw the plates there.
The lovely lady assisting us said that frequently, customers will buy sets of different colors to
mix and match in their cupboards.
Our first thought was... of course... "Genius!"
So, we traded in three sets of green plates for some other beautiful rainbow colors and then
had to return some other items and so bought two more to add to our collection!
I can't wait to have a full on party with these babies. It's gonna be a blast! :)

Because I gave in...
1:13 PM
I am now blogging. Ugh. I love blogging, don't get me wrong, and I am very grateful to my friend that set this blog up for me and made it beautiful and taught me how to use it (because I am technology illiterate) (friend's blog is over here).
But now! blogging is taking over my life. Or at least, the next twenty or thirty minutes or so. See, apparently I really want to show every one my house before it is ready. So to compromise, I will show you some pictures of another time and place: MY WEDDING! :) tee hee. I'm so excited. Here they come:

Ok, so technically this shot is from the open house. But I LOVE it. What say you?
I love it so much I'm thinking about printing it out. Is that super ridiculous? Maybe. Is it too ridiculous? *shrug*
What about this one?
Oh my handsome husband. (He is looking at the view in front of my Vernal house. Kinda nice.)
And last but not least... The St. George temple!
No, we didn't get married here and no, it wasn't even taken on my wedding day.
We visited one of the days on our honeymoon. Loved it. Took a picture. Loved it more!
The colors are SO amazing, don't you think? That's what happens in St. George
with lots and lots of light. *sigh* Love it.

Anyway, now I've got to go get cleaned up. Best Friend will be wanting a ride home from work soon and I better not freak him (or any other person I may come in contact with) out with my stinkiness. :)

Wedding Dress for Sale
12:18 PM
I know I know. I've only been married two and a half weeks and I'm selling my wedding dress?!
Well, let's face it: I'm not going to wear it again and it's taking up space in my closet. It's sad, but true.
Besides, I wore it twice. That's more than most brides get. So, for ANYONE that is interested:
There are no spots or stains, rips or tears. The dress is in perfect condition -
just as it was when it left the store.
If you are interested, please call Nashelle at 435-790-4843.
Thank you!
