A true friend reaches for your hand and touches your heart. ~Author Unknown

I decided to try something new. I’m going to blog about a friend of mine in each post. Now before you say boring, let me tell you…I have some fun, interesting and fabulous friends.

I will begin by blogging about a good friend of mine who is a faithful reader of my blog. I envy her. She is so great! She has done some amazing things in her 24 years of life. She has lived in Alaska, Fiji and Mexico City.

She has skydived, taken a group of Alaskan students to NYC, and learned to speak a few different languages. She loves to learn and spends her time helping others. She is truly a great person and I am honored to be her friend.

Ok, that was a sappy one. But she’s really cool. Tomorrow I’ll be blogging about a sketchy friend…don’t worry…the drama is on its way.

Blowing bubbles are fun,

To Tap or Not to Tap


So I decided to do something I've never done before. This evening I attended my 3rd tap dance lesson of my life. It's something I always thought would be fun to do and looked like fun. Well 3 weeks into it, I have 3 things to say.

1. My toes hurt


2. Everyone in my class has white hair except for the guy who looks about my age, but does not like girls.


3. It is actually REALLY hard So if you are reading this blog, I expect to see you at my recital in September.


Tapping away,

Things that make me happy

Taking a half day at work so I can go to happy hour with friendsThe Talking Photo Booth on Jay Leno









Reading about stupid criminals (so I know this picture is not of a "stupid criminal", but you know what I'm talking about...those people who rob a house and fall down and call 911)





























Playing Miniature golf
















Road Trips













Watching "how i met your mother"






Eating Chipotle

It's been awhile!

So it's been a really long time since I blogged, but there have been a few issues.

1. I pinched a nerve in my neck and could not really move
2. I didn't really have anything exciting to blog about
3. I've been spending all my free time watching "How I Met Your Mother" (such a good show)

So there is still not much to blog about, but I wanted to make sure you didn't think I fell off the face of the earth.

Good Night!

Olive Oil

So I love olive oil, but I hate olives? Is that weird?

Did you know that in ancient Greece, children of wealthy families were dipped in olive oil at birth to keep them hairless throughout their lives?

Did you also know that 98% of the world’s olive oil comes from the Mediterranean region?

You may be asking why I am giving you this useless information about olive oil and my answer is this...there is no reason. I just didn't have anything interesting to blog about today!

Maybe a sad subject, but it's Inevitable

Death seems to be a subject in my life recently. I think that last statement was an oxymoron...maybe? Death and life in the same sentence…maybe I don’t really know what an oxymoron is.

With these deaths, come many questions from many different people. Why would God allow death? Why do bad things happen to good people? Why can someone in their prime of life be alive and well one day and the next day they are gone?

Maybe a new favorite quote of mine will help in this subject. “One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure its worth watching.”

I will now pull out my 2nd Major in Bible and Theology from Crown College.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
-Romans 8:28

Even though it can be hard to see, God has a reason for everything! That is something important to keep in mind.

Ok, Benny the Bed is calling my name..

3 interesting facts about me

  • I once sat in Conan O’Brien’s chair on the set of his late night TV show (Conan was not there, but it was still cool)

  • I was on the news in London in front on Buckingham Palace. Not for any reason, except I wanted to be on TV in another country

  • I don’t like Mayonnaise, mustard or ranch dressing.
