http://laynahrose.blogspot.com/2015/08/thingsmymattiesays.html
I'm spending my Saturday night all alone right now watching Real Housewives of whatever city we are on, and it is honestly the best time ever! Right now my Mattie is at a Dodger game helping my father-in-love celebrate his birthday. And I'm just straight chillin like you wouldn't believe. This is such a gloriously lazy night! Here's one of my favorites:. I'm pretty sure the crazy thing I was thinking of doing here was giving up processed foods. That lasted about 4 hours. He has actually bought me a car s...

You know how you never do any of the touristy things in your own area? My friend told me a funny story the other day.her family from France came to visit her in California and they really wanted to go to the Hollywood sign. She said "Great idea, I've never been myself! And they gave her such a hard time about it, they couldn't believe it! Next thing she knows, they're telling her that they've never even been to the Eiffel Tower.and they live a half hour away! Just last month I went to the observatory.

This little girl didn't even WANT to go to her own graduation haha! Something about sitting in the sun for a couple of hours just didn't appeal to her ;) But we finally convinced her to go, and she is well on her way into real life now! She leaves us in September, and I am so going to miss her pretty face. I figured out how to make my sun shine like a diamond! It was realllyyyy funny watching them all walk in. Literally 13x the size of my senior class. Bathbombs and Baubles and Ruffle Butts. I LOVE THIS&...

Another BYU Modesty Note: The Toxicity of Shame in LDS Culture | New Yorker in Utah
https://newyorkerinutah.wordpress.com/2013/10/09/another-byu-modesty-note-the-toxicity-of-shame-in-lds-culture
New Yorker in Utah. I'm obsessed with baseball. Skip to primary content. Another BYU Modesty Note: The Toxicity of Shame in LDS Culture. October 9, 2013. This is a note I received sitting in the periodicals section of the BYU library. It reads:. Dear Cute Girl,. Sincerly [sic], a friend looking out for you and the Boys. Why had my BYU classmate written the note to me. Which one offers a long-term solution to his problem of being distracted by women’s bodies? I shudder to think of the moral decay he would...

Ummm hi. I just realized that I haven't blogged at all this month! Anyhow, I had a couple adventures and wanted to share them real quick. Fiiirst, my baby sister (in-law) got engaged to her dream guy! Which is acutally kind of weird because I'm pretty sure she was 15 like, yesterday, but I'm getting used to it. Insert tears streaming down face emoji. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. Allll the heart eyes. I told her we're technically married now since newlyweds are the only ones that pose on this thing haha.

Just gushing over here. We are falling hard and fast for the country! The new home is completely wonderful so far. We're basically in the honeymoon stage because we can't get over it and even things like laundry and cooking and cleaning are still thrilling to us! Haha, hoping that lasts as long as possible. Besides wanting our house, they are super nice and avid drinkers. Our other neighbors are much more mellow and all in all the street is quiet. Funny story.we have been in three different wards thr...

A goal without a plan is just a wish. I MADE A PLAN YOU GUYS. Like, I actually made a plan to reach some goals I've had for a while and - what do you know - things are actually happening! It all started with " I want to make an extra few hundred dollars every month. So I became a consultant for Jamberry. And - BAM. Few hundred dollars every month, in the bank. Then I was like " Say whaaat, that actually worked? Wow, what else can I do? Get prints and put together an actual real life portfolio. So yeah, I...

Think of a wonderful thought. I've been studying a lot recently about how to naturally boost serotonin levels, and wouldn't you know it - thinking happy thoughts is one of the suggestions! How funny that positive thinking will LITERALLY result in a positive life? People tell us that all the time but I thought it was just talk and I was actually kind of surprised to read that (although I don't remember my source, haha sorry! And I started pedaling…and I still had it! I sat in that bush and ate every last ...
