Old Spice.

This is probably one of the funniest commercials I think I have ever seen.
Click for a good laugh.

Sonic Scout.

Meet the Sonic Scout.
This little guy was my Mothers when she was little.
Something you might not know about me is
I Love everything Vintage!!
I had my eye on this sweet little thing for as long as I can remember..it sat in my grandparents
garage for too long.
After many hints..my dad finally fixed it up for me with a fresh set of wheels. I brought it to logan my freshman year and got a few good uses out of it.
Due to the fact I lived at the bottom of a huge hill last school year I never rode it.
What a tragedy!
Last night I took it for a spin with some friends.
We rode to the temple and thoroughly enjoyed the Summer night and sunset.
I love summer.
And I love the Sonic Scout.
It is pretty darn old, but it is still kickin...
Goal: To ride the bike more.

I just liked this night. A Lot.

4 Simple Steps
to a fantastically fun
Girls Night.
ONE.
Go to Caspers, or any little local Ice Creamery
and cool off with a sweet little treat.
(sit outside and admire the pretty summer sunset)


TWO.
Go the the park and swing on swings..pretending like you are
5 years old makes it much more enjoyable.


THREE.
Take pictures of yourselves acting like dorks.

FOUR.
End the night by eating your weight in Candy and watching a good Chick Flick.
(Or in our case a super super cheesy one)

Being a Girl is Fun.

Sometimes this (almost 20 in a few days) age is hard...

but nights like this remind me that I really like it.

It finally came.

It's Official...they are off to the Philippines.
I feel like it is the end of an era...which kills me on the inside a little.
But they are doing an amazing work over there,
spreading the gospel!!
What an amazing experience.
I will miss you so much Benny and Steph!!
(and Dave and Kayla)

Sardine Canyon wishes Death On Me.


So I usually love summer Rains.


Especially when there is Lightning.




But this summer this is getting pretty ridiculous. It hasn't really even been summer cause it is always stinkin cold, overcast, and stormy.




Last night was no exception. Laura Luke and I drove to North Ogden to watch the So You Think You Can Dance at the Crockett household. It was a lot of fun. And I love Kent and am ecstatic they brought Mark back this season as an All-Star.. I love Mark.
Mark I love you.
So on the way home I believe Laura Luke and I experienced the scariest/funniest car rides in both of our long lived lives.
It was the craziest weather I have ever seen...people always talk about how mad Sardine Canyon gets during storms...and I always thought those people were wussies, but I now know what they are talking about.
It involved huge wind gusts that would shake the car, crazy hail, rain, lightning of outrageous proportions, hydroplaning, and a car with two terrified screaming girls.
Thank you Laura for letting me participate in that Epic car ride with you. It definitely made it on my list of unforgettable moments- Summer 2010.

Summer time in the Cache Valley.

I Love Summer.


Why?

It always brings the unexpected and the most fun adventures.

To me summer means friends, sun, so you think you can dance, tan feet, watermelon, lazy days, the fourth of July, swimming, vacation, smores, my Birthday, corn on the cob, fairs, fireworks, popcicles, and fun.

I have had a mega fine summer thus far in L-town. It has consisted of:
Moving into a nasty little apartment, but I do have my own room and bathroom which is rather nice.

I have a new little nephew. Ty Dustin Hillam. And I may be partial because I am his favorite aunt, but I think he is probably one of the cutest babies I have ever seen.


Mel let me come and take some pictures of him while I was home last week, and considering it was with my dinky little point n' shoot and light from the window I think they turned out pretty good. Obviously not maximum quality but we made due. Plus when the subject is as cute as Ty its hard to take a bad picture.
I'm so excited to have this little guy in our family. And to see how he completes the amazing Hillams little family. I love them so much. And so blessed to have such an incredible family.
Last week I took the week off and headed down south the the K-Town so I could spend a week full of adventures with this girl.
Stephanie DeLaMare.
We went shopping at the outlets in Park City. Went to a drive-in movie. Roasted Mallows. Sling shot-ted. Played a little game of capture the flag. Hung out with the girls. Got sunburned swimming. Put together a package for the Elder Strong's. Laughed. Watched Glee. Laughed. Had a sleep over. And it all went by to quickly.
Its crazy to think that my best friend will no longer be on the same continent as me in 17 days.
We have never not known each other, and have literally grown up together three houses apart for 20 years.
You might recall a post mentioning this beautiful girls twin sister (my other bestie) Shannon Sue Ellen. We have all gone through so much together. I don't think they will ever know how much I have looked up to them and their beautiful examples and testimonies.
Their dad got called as a mission president to the Philippines. So Dave, Kayla, Ben, and Steph are all moving June 27th. It is going to be such an amazing experience for their family, and I can't think of better people to have been called to this.
It just sucks that my best friend is leaving me. I know I should be super happy for them which I totally am. But sometimes I like to be a little bit selfish as well.

Step-On-Me you are going to have such an amazing experience, and I am going to miss you everyday. But I think it is safe to say if we can make it through 20 years...the next 20 will also be an adventure. All I have to say is Bring it on.

The six chicks + little Cambria. About to go swimming.

Slack Lining. Very difficult. Uber Cool. Makes Rick look like a GIANT.
I am super sad I didn't bring my camera on the boat. But the miss Laura Luke and I went Wake Boarding today with some awesome friends. Little to say this picture sums up the experience...Minus the freezing cold temperature and cloud cover that did not add to our summer goal of getting tan.
But we did have fun, and my fore arms got a massive work out. They hurt so bad I am having to type this with my toes. Wake Boarders are hard core it is a tough hobby/sport. My new goal: be able to stay up longer than 2 seconds next time I go.
Other fun shananigans of Summer 2010 so far...
  • Going four wheeling and to a Bee's Game with a cute boy.
  • Having Crepe Saturday's and Sunday's with the roomies.
  • Meeting new people.
  • Catching up on all of the Glee episodes.
  • Went golfing for the first time.
  • Seeing my brother Inlaw skydive.
  • Spending Memorial day with the Family.
  • Being able to read books. Hooray.
and just lovin life.


Hope you are having a great day.

Young Victoria.

Attention World.
If you have not seen this little beauty of a movie. Run to Redbox right now and get it.
I'm serious Run.

If you are like me and love old movies such as Pride and Prejudice, North and South, Emma, Sense and Sensibility....this movie is for you.
Even if you don't like old movies as mentioned above this movie is still for you.
(Haley Jeanne)
I went and got it from red box when I was staying at the Crocketts last week while they were out of town and I watched it one and a half times monday night, then I watched it the next night, and the next day and almost every night until I just barely returned it today.
At this rate I could have bought it for what I owe redbox now. But that is ok. It was worth it.
I will own it one day.
Because I
Love
Love
LOVE
it.
Oh and did I mention I pretty much love Albert? One day I will have an Albert of my own.
Until then I will just watch this movie over and over.
As should you.
