I Can Hear the Bells

Well I hope all you lovies had a wonderful Valentines day!!
 {I know I did!}

Look at these gorgeous flowers that my prince charming gave me

 
oh yea he is way too good
  

Any who 
there really isn't too much going on over here
broke college student trying to make it 
and have a little fun on the way
What can ya do

I'm currently looking for another job 
and trying to find an internship for the summer

I really wanted to take a few class this summer but 
they raised tuition
[AGAIN]
So it looks like I'm just going to be working my little booty off
and hopefully getting in shape while doing it

On the plus side though
That means I can go on more adventures! 
I can't wait to explore all over this beautiful place 
called Utah

If any of you want to com visit me over the summer 
I would love you forever and ever
>that includes you MOM. get your tiny little bum out here so we can play!<

This past weekend I had the honor of walking in my dear friend's
Makayala's wedding

She made an absolutely stunning bride
and her new hubby looked so charming in his dress blues  

Did I mention that she planned this entire wedding in two months!
... and that she did everything by herself !!

She is one savey little peanut let me tell you

she made all the desserts
sewed all the table clothes
sewed her own garter
made all the center pieces
made all the picture frames
and basically everything else that you saw at the wedding ...
she made it all

         Truly inspirational she is           
I couldn't be happier for her
    
I think my favorite part of the day was going to Chili's with everyone 
{and Makayla in her wedding dress}
We made quite the scene 
but we had an absolute blast

That and getting to slow dance with my prince charming at the end of the night 
It was pretty much a perfect day
{only i don't have a picture of the two of us. i know. i am really sad, because he looked so studly}      






Yes ... she made her own veil too








Congratulations to
Mr. and Mrs. Nielson
I wish you happiness in all that you do 

Love Always,
Lexi

Hat Hair

For some reason lately
I have had this obsession with this so called "Beanie Hat"

Sense I don't really have the face for sun glasses
Hats are usually my go to thing

However
I never really thought that beanies were very attractive
{to be honest i thought it made everyone look like smurfs}

But they are all the range this season

I guess they have been all the range through out winter
but now I am just getting into them  

There are so many super cute looks that you can get out of them

{i really wish i had one ... }
[and money. money would be nice. if i had money i would definitely have a beanie. ... and a lot of other things too]  

... now for a picture montage ...







Stay warm my beauties! 

Cedar just for 5 more inches!
... and i get to go snow plowing with my prince tonight ...

I am one very happy 
very lucky girl!

Love Always,
Lexi

Be Mine ...

Valentines Day


I feel like this is a very 50/50 kind of day
{half of us love it and the other have loathes it}

any excuse to show the ones around me just how much I love them
I am ALL over it
[that and every store sells chocolate! ... talk about the best holiday ever!]
and who doesn't love an excuse to dress up and be exceptionally sexy

I hope you all
 have a very happy love day
and make sure to tell all that you love
 just that

I love you.














Love Always,
Lexi
  

 

  

girl talk ... ?


Alright my beauty buffs
I am usually not someone who would do this type of thing 
but I feel something needs to be said
 I will be the first to say I love love love all those silly little magazines
[you know the ones that are mostly filled with advertisements and gossip]
I get them to look at the pictures for fashion inspiration
I do sometimes actually read the articles though
I don't know if many of you have 
but some of the
... are total bull ...
I think that it is kind of funny that some of the writers are getting paid bucket loads to tell us common knowledge 
and then we act like we have never heard or thought about it because
and that it is genius
Time to wise up a little ladies 
       
Before I give you my example 
I first want to say that I love Lauren Conrad 
and I think that she is a very talented young designer and business woman
However, she came out with an article 
{found on her web site}
That stated 
 "Try not to use straws (and definitely do not smoke). Pursing your lips constantly will cause micro lines to become serious crevices." 
-Lauren Conrad
Really?!  
While we are at it ...
no smiling. it causes wrinkles by your eyes
no facial expressions. unnecessary movement of the face in repetitive motions causes wrinkles
  
The rest of the article talks about a few other things
 to help keep you beautiful ...
drink water
get lots of sleep
moisturize you skin 
wear sun tan lotion
Let's be honest
Do we really need to pay people to tell us to do these things
I'm pretty sure we can figure them out on our own
I don't know 
Maybe it's just me
but I find it a bit ridiculous some of the malarkie that we are fed
and that most woman tend to believe 
 
I apologize if this post offended anyone 
but I had to get it off my chest
{and trust me I was really holding back}
Ladies
You are a beautiful creation from God 
Have confidence in who you are because
 you are perfectly made

Love Always
Lexi
