Home

   I have been home for a little over 2 weeks now. I started work pretty much as soon as I arrived into the motherland. I actually really enjoyed my job that I had at the Stampede! It was really easy and went by really quickly. It was a good experience for me and I was also very lucky to be able to watch the rodeo everyday! I love rodeos... and I was able to see the greatest outdoor show on earth everyday!!

Our uniforms were really fun! I had a long red skirt, black boots, a really cute belt and a black hat.. Welcome to Ranahans!

Sarah had a job at the Stampede as well! I met her after my shift and we were enjoying a piece of Macaroni and Cheese PIZZA! Sounds revolting, right? Well, it was actually so good. 

I love this shirt! It's so cute!! I should have bought because when I have kids... they will love horses. 

This picture doesn't do those little bears justice. They were honestly SO cute! So soft and my mom about lost her mind. I thought she was going to cry in the store! So funny. My mom is a cutie.

Pedicures!! Much over due. 

I love being home! I love being able to see my family and spend time with them! I am happy with Provo and the life I have down there. But the saying is true... there is no place like home. Sometimes we get caught up in one aspect of life that we live and push aside other things that bring us a lot of joy. Since being home, I am figuring out that there are a lot of things that constitute ME.  I understand that I can live all of those aspects at once by creating balance in my life. I am no longer going to pick and choose between all of the things I love... I am going to incorporate all the things I love to do into my life and be happy!!

Just For Fun!

    A few weeks ago Kim and I helped out our cute lil' friend Karin Cottle. Karin goes to school at Paul Mitchell. She is an awesome little stylist and needed our help for one of her photo shoots. She did our make up and our hair and it was... a long day but it was so much fun!

This was so fun but one of the hardest things I've ever done. Props to the photographer for actually being able to capture a decent shot. I laughed a lot and was totally out of my element. But, a fun experience nontheless! 

Kim is legit. 

   Also.. the movie Water for Elephants was amazing!!!!!! I saw it and I cried... bawled, really. It was so, so great. I most definitely recommend it.
