J&K together finally... 10.10

Finally!!!! It's almost the weekend!!!!!!!!!! Jordan is coming down for BYU homecoming. I'm so excited i could die. We haven't seen each other since I left NYC august 22nd. So its about time! I'm already dreading when it's over. The whole family (Mum, Dad, Boo, Keri& Mike, and some of Jordan's siblings) is coming too. I super excited for the football game. It's such a breath of fresh to get out of little Rexburg as much as I love it. It's already getting so so cold here. The wind is the worst. It's so dry too. I'm such a California girl.

The boys are back in town...







All the boys are back from their missions!!!! It's been so great to reunite. I can't wait to be able to serve a mission one day so I really enjoyed hearing all about their stories. From the people to the beautiful languages and the cultures, it was so fascinating. Looking back it seems like those two years flew by and yet so very much has changed. I can't believe I'm a senior now and approaching graduation!! I'm grateful for the opportunities I've had during my college years. It's been a great ride and there's more to come!!

Everyone is getting hitched!




On my way home from NY I stopped in Northern California to go the last roommates wedding. That means I'm the only one left either not married or on a mission. Super! LOL. No I'm completely content right now with my stage in life. It's been great to travel all over to my friends homes and be apart of their weddings!! Kendall's was gorgeous. Her colors were a very bright green and deep red, beautiful contrast! Cheers to getting married!

Don't take Mum for granted.




I love this quote. It's from a book Friday Night Knitting Club, the quotes is an older woman reflecting on her relationship with her mom.

"Her friends were all awitter now that their adult daughters were on a kick of getting to know them as equals. " I want us to be friends," she'd heard that these grown children kept insisting to their mothers. Of course, what these daughters wanted was to be able to bare their souls to the one person in the world who would love them without restraint, whose approval was priceless, who would find them and their myriad life issue endlessly fascinating. It is a beautiful gift, thought Anita, to have your mother be your very dearest and best friend. It is quite another to try to be hers. Then you'd have to actually get to know her. As a real person"

Just wanted to say thanks to my mother for being my best friend. Surely I don't know the gravity or ability of a mothers love, but I do have an unconditional love that is pretty darn close. I hope she considers me her best friend as well as I try to treat her as the amazing real person she is.

BACK TO REXI <3




Back with my girls and ready for our first night out. Social life is a little different now, but its so great to be back with my girlfriends. I haven't seen anyone in soooooo long. Rexi has even changed a little while I've been away. There's a new cupcake show with hot coco and goodies and a brand new huge bookstore. This semester is BYU-I's most full fall semester!!! There's loads of new people to meet :)

The roof @ The Met





That's Jordan and I making a heart in the reflection of a giant heart statue. So creative! I just love the met. So much amazing art to see and the view on the roof is stellar!




Walking through Central Park on our way to The Met.

Celebrity Spotting in Central Park



Twas a lover-ly little ride through the park. Even more great was the fact we totally saw HEIDI KLUM with her kids in on our way into the park on Friday. We contimplated following her for a bit, but then Jordan and I decided we weren't complete creeps and we should probably move on with our lives. lol. She looked killer though. Better than on TV with both agreed. Project Runway here I come!

Anyone recognize the man behind me????? Cash prize for his name!!!




Taylor and I went for this tour type boat ride one day and this man and his mulitple secret service guys joined us. We can't figure out who this mystery man is... any thoughts?? let me know!!

Coney Island





What a good time! Angie and I started a dance party! Jordan showed off some special moves on his own before taking me out for a spin. It was a blast to say the least. There are some... um... unique people down on Coney Island, certainly not what I expected. It was fun to see and speculate, a very good people watching spot.




Vespa Rides Down Fifth

Jordan's good friend has a vespa, Jordan is basically in love with it. He's in constant consideration of buying one. So we took his friend's out for a little cruise. IT WAS LIFE CHANGING. So nice on a summer night to cruise down fifth and around our neighborhood. I totally fell in love with it! Hopefully Jordan gets one (wink wink) shhhh don't tell Mom though, she's anti!

In Brooklyn Again

We always have s good time walking across Brooklyn Bridge. It's gorgeous at sunset. There's a really cute little creamery right on the water on the brooklyn side and it lovely to enjoy ice cream on the water and look at downtown all lit up. These are pictures of our favorite mexican resturant that's over there. It's called Alma... its YUM!!!





Typical New York TImes...
