First let me tell you that it has been my hair style for the past four days. I seriously love this! It's a really easy tutorial Mimi does a great job teaching and, she is right when she says it helps if you say "over, under". Good luck and let me know how yours it turns out!!<br />

Okay, so remember three weeks ago I changed my blog name? Yeah, so I just found out that I could have just bought a better domain name and left it at that. Instead I recreated my blog, like the WHOLE thing, posts and all. Sometimes I wish I was as smart as some of you bloggers! Maybe I should have asked everyone's opinions first.. Anyways I'm back at the old blog with a new domain name very similar to this one (:<br />
Check me out!<br />

Happy Friday Eve friends! This weekend we are stay-cationing at my family's house again! It's nice because we get to watch the Olympics! We don't have tv so we haven't been able to watch it at all! So LAME! And I missed my favorite part... gymnastics! How rude is that?! Currently I am watching water polo, not my kind of event but good for them! Anyways, I hope you all had an awesome week! What are your plans for the weekend?! </div>

Back in May I said I was going to finish Ellen's new book <i>Seriously... I'm Kidding. </i>And let me tell you something, I still haven't finished it. The parts I've read are pretty funny and I definitely plan on finishing it. But, I recently obtained a library card and I've rented two books. (Just in case I don't like one I could always switch it up!) So I decided to start reading <i>The Wife's Tale </i>by Lori Lansens. I've seen some good reviews on it and I liked the summary. So if you are interested in reading along and don't live near the Foothills Library, because I have the only copy from there, join in! (Okay, if you live near the Foothills Library you can still read it you will just have to look somewhere else.)<br />
<br />
Have you read this book before? Do you have any book recommendations for me?!<br />

^^ awesome positive song that I'm seriously loving ^^</div>
<br />
I haven't really been that great about taking pictures of my outfits and I would like to say that this challenge would be so much easier during the fall because then I could layer more! I've also noticed that I love my f21 skinnies haha! I seriously wear them with every outfit, I'll try and change that for the next few pictures! I've also noticed that I don't like to wear jewelry, I'm not sure why that is. I also wear the same sandals in every post! I guess you will be seeing some changes in my next few outfits (:<br />
Are you participating in the 30x30 challenge? Or have you? I'd like to know what you think about the whole experience, so far, I really like it because I'm understanding that every piece of clothing is so versatile!<br />

Dear Old Lady,<br />
<br />
Can I call you old? I guess the reason why I call you old because right now you seem old to me. Can you believe you are 28? Right now I cannot imagine that you are, there are so many things that I want to have accomplished by the time I'm 28. I guess when you read this you will be able to cross off the things that you/we have done. By the way can you believe it's been 5 years since you wrote yourself this letter?<br />
Right now I have some questions for you that I'm anxious about:<br />
June '13 your brother came home from his mission! How was it?! How hard did you cry? Did he cry? Was it so weird to have him home again? Who all was there? Did he have so many stories to tell?<br />
August '13 you started your last two semesters of college. Was it worth it? Was it worth your time? Your tears? Did you make it happen like you promised yourself/us?<br />
<br />
Right now I'm thinking of all the things that I want you/us to accomplish like:<br />
Graduate College.<br />
Get into Dental School.<br />
Have kids.<br />
Go on an adventure - you know like travel.<br />
Read your scriptures everyday for a year no cheats for vacations.<br />
Be a stay at home mom.<br />
Make the Dean's list.<br />
These are only a few of course<br />
<br />
Do you remember what was going on in your life when you wrote this? I bet you do, of course how could you forget?! I hope you look back on your/our life and are happy with the things you/we have accomplished, I hope some of your bucket list items were checked off.<br />
<br />
Anyways, there will be more for me to write in this time capsule but till then.<br />
xoxo,<br />
lyss<br />

Happy Friday Eve dear friends! Another week gone by means I have another batch of pictures to show you! This week I felt like I didn't get much accomplished, school is starting so soon and I feel like I have so much to do! Guess I need to make myself a schedule! I hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy your time before school starts! </div>
