*SuMmATiMe!*

 Kicked summer off with a trip to AZ in APRIL, celebrated my 25th in MAY, spent a week in paradise in JUNE, celebrated Cory's 28th in JULY, and somewhere in between all of that found out we have a baby on the way! I would say it has been a pretty good summer! To celebrate my absolute favorite time of the year, let's sing some summertime songs! :) 

"Days go by,

 I can feel 'em flying

Like a hand out the window with the wind as the cars go by,

It's all we've been given

So you better start livin' right now

'Cause days go by!"

-Keith Urban

***** 

 

"Hey, that's the way we do it, 

new friends and blue skies that never end

Hey, that's the way we like it

Good times, sunshine and summertime!"

-Faith Hill

*****

"And dreamed of Para- para- paradise

Para- para- paradise

Para- Para- Paradise"

-Coldplay

"Some beach

Somewhere

There's a big umbrella casting shade over an empty chair

Palm trees are growing and a warm breezes a blowing

I picture myself right there

On some beach, somewhere"

-Blake Shelton

"I'm somewhere, somewhere sunny and 75

You and me on a beach chair

Yeah, I'm so there every time I look in your eyes

Kissing you and the salt air

I can taste it, I swear

Take me somewhere sunny and 75"

-Joe Nichols

"And it's, two bare feet on the dashboard

Young love and an old Ford

Cheap shades and a tattoo 

and a Yoo-Hoo, bottle on the floorboard.

Perfect song on the radio

Sing along 'cause it's one we know

It's a smile, it's a kiss

It's a sip of wine, it's summertime

Sweet summertime!"

-Kenny Chesney

"Summer nights

everybody are you with me

let that igloo cooler 

mark your piece of paradise,

Summer nights

everybody's feeling sexy

holler if your ready 

for some summer nights!"

-Rascal Flatts

*****

*****

"But the sun keeps settin', the days go fast

And the sand on the beach is like an hourglass

I can just feel it all slipping away

And babe I can already say that,

As long as I live, whatever I do

As great as it is, know what's a bummer

I ain't ever gonna beat this summer with you

Baby it's true

The taste of your kiss is so bittersweet

I ain't gonna beat, no way I'm gonna beat this summer with you"

-Brad Paisley 

*CHange, CHilliness, CHristmas and a CHerry on top!*

CHANGE!

A couple months ago I said goodbye to Fanny Sams! Bittersweet since this is where Cory and I first met! (I went out with him even though he paid that day with a $4 off coupon!) My life in Utah has been  at this place, so this will be weird not working here! But ready for a change!! On to bigger and better things!! Now renting my own station, making my own schedule and enjoying working again!

(hard to say goodbye to all my salon girls, such a fun group!!!!)

(P.S. you can view all my prices and some of my work on my work blog: colorsandcuts.blogspot.com)

CHILLINESS!

Weird, Utah cold? No way does this ever happen! You would think after 4 years I would be used to it, nope. Sorry Cory, i will forever complain! :)

matchy matchy! Go DUKE!! :-)'

CHRISTMAS!

Christmas was a blast! Got spoiled as usual, I have the best in-laws! Wouldn't be complete without some ridiculous outfit! Moo!

Loved seeing this handsome missionary, technology these days, sheesh!

...And these guys came in town! xoxo!!! Fun playing in the snow with the fam bam! 

CHERRY ON TOP!

This has been my "Cherry on Top" so far of the winter! AZ has half of my heart fo sho! Where else can you wear shorts in January!? And go quading in January!? And be ok eating shaved ice in January!? #arizonagirlforlife Tia Rosas, bahama bucks, golfing, quading, jack in the crack ((5 times GAG!) Don't know why cory loves it so much!?)), game nights, shopping, pedis, Otis, family fun night, and got to meet my besties 2 month old baby Brexton! Good times AZ! Always good times! 

Funny story!... so we are riding along the quad right? Having a dandy good time, i was driving so maybe going 15 MPH, maybe.. and all of a sudden we hear sirens behind us. So we turn around, see a cop, pull over, and the most ridiculous thing happens. We get ticketed for having 2 people on a 1 person quad. How lame is that!? Why is a cop in the middle of the desert anyway, nothing better to do!? And to top it off, shortly after that we saw 2 people on an even smaller quad pass right in front of the cop and he didn't pull them over. :(

Gilbert Temple open house: Gorgeous! Can't wait to go through once its open!!

When's the next trip Cory!!??? :)
