A few weeks back, Trixi, Fraggle my mom and I went up to Baby Animal Days at This Is The Place State Park. OMG baby animals are so cute! I held baby chickens, petted baby goats, piglets and ducklings. It was so fun! Such a splendid way to spent a spring afternoon!

Miss You. Always.
Sometimes when I'm walking down the street I'll see someone that looks like you and it knocks the breath right out of me.
There are no amount of words that can express how much I still miss you. I feel like I'm forgetting memories. Every year you fade a bit more. I'm desperate to hold on to what I do remember.
Playing board games with you, Cynthia & Eric. We were always on the same team.
The time you told me you would give up eating meat if I would hook up with you.
The time after you got beat up at area 51 and when you kissed me goodbye you said ouch because it hurt because you'd been punched.
The night I met you. I remember staring at you and thinking? Who is this cute boy with Beatles hair cut.
I still remember exactly what it felt like when you would wrap your arms around me on the Cynthia's couch.
The way you said my name and how you'd slightly tilt your head when I said something odd.
Dancing in the rain to Gnarles Barkley.
That time you got out of the car after Cory's party and said: "it was fun kissing all of you tonight. Heidi, We should of kissed more."
The way you looked in that to big plaid button up shirt you wore constantly.
At ArtTix when you tried to jump over a chair ninja style and instead crashed hardcore on the ground.
You made me feel important. You called me on my bullshit. (Heidi, if you want to kiss me why don't you just say so?")
The time I was wearing my cream wrap sweater and you told me you liked it and I looked pretty.
A long time after you died I wouldn't let anyone kiss me, because I wanted you to be the last one that had.
The last time I say you before you left us, I was mad at you. I'll forever be sorry about that.
I sure miss you. Always.
Happy 30th Birthday.

30 in 30
In just 30 short days I will officially kiss my 20's goodbye and move into my 30's
I'm thankful for my 20's. But I am sad to see them go. They were beautiful, heartbreaking, sexy,funny, and sometimes tough but mostly amazing.
30 things I learned in my 20's
1-The boy you think you will die without that left, I promise you will feel that way about another one in 6-12 months
2-Sometimes people will do really bad things and try to blame it on you. It is not your fault.
3-Its okay to be totally in love with someone and have them not love you back. Just don't keep waiting on them to change their mind.
4-you don't need to buy stuff to be happy. You don't need 100 nail polishes, 75 eye shadows, 85 sweaters or 200 pairs of shoes. You just don't. -You are not a Kardashian. (They don't need all that stuff either btw....)
5- Its okay to be single. Respect yourself enough not to settle.
6-Just because you a related to someone doesn't mean you have to love them
7-Its okay to love the wrong person, but then realize an move on.
8-Its always better to pay a professional to wax your eyebrows, highlight your hair and paint your nails.
9-Take pics. Take a lot a pics. You never know when you could lose someone forever, and when they are gone you will wish you took more pics.
10-If you hate your job. QUIT. Life is to short to be miserable.
11- Sometimes you have sex with the wrong person. Sometimes you have sex with the right person. Sometimes its a drunken train wreck, sometimes it amazing. But as long as you wanted to have it at the time, and you were safe about it then its fine.
12-Spending time with the people you care about, doing what you love, is the most important thing. If you found out you were going to die in two weeks would you work 24/7? Money would be worthless. While money is great, time is worth way more then money.
13-If you care about someone tell them. Tell them now. NOW.
14-Don't be jealous of other people. Its stupid and it gets you no where. If someone has something you want, try and let them inspire you to do better, don't hate them for having something you want.
15-You don't need to wear ridiculously high heels to be fashionable or sexy. Some of the most fashionable people I know hardly ever wear heels. And I've been hit on by some of the cutest boys, when wearing flats.
16-Not all sports are bad. Soccer & Speed skating are in fact awesome. (Don't worry I still hate The Jazz and football.)
17-Jason Mraz is one of the most talented singer songwriters ever. Thanks Brian for forcing me to listen to him...
18-Everyone at some point in their life she kiss a boy from England.
19-You are never to old to make ridiculous music videos with your friends.
20-You need to get a degree. In something. Anything . But just do it. The sooner the better.
21-Not all kids are horrible. Yes some are monsters. But some will adore you. And to be adored feels wonderful. (No, I still don't want kids.)
22- You will have amazing friends that are you're everything. Sometimes, something will happen and they will become almost nothing. It's okay accept and cherish what you had.
23-Sometimes you need to call in sick, stay in Pjs all day cuddle with kittys, drink tea, and watch James Franco movies or The Hills or Friends all day. This remedy really can make things all better.
24-Everyone should have a NYE kiss with someone they adore.
25-People that don't like animals have issues and can't be trusted.
26-Your clothes should fit. FIT. Not to small not to big. Just fit.
27-When people move, is when you find out who your real friends are.
28-Get Triple A. Its saved me more than once. Worth every penny.
29-Sometimes an animal can save you life.
30-Always, always, always, stand up for what you believe in. ALWAYS. The few times I haven't I always regret it more then the times I did. Even if it makes a situation uncountable, always be true to you.

Visits
Recently two of my friends from out of town came to visit. Yay! Heidi came in from LA for a quick visit and I was fortunate enough to grab a fun lunch with her. It was so great to catch up! I haven't seen her in years! (Heidi Squared!!)
Jessica came in to SLC for her nieces birthday and Allison and I had a lunch plus splendid afternoon with her. We ate delicious food, sat on the grass for hours, petted a giant dog, and had a perfectly lovely afternoon.Of course both times we ate here. (Where else would I eat?!?!)
I love dandelions I think they are so perfectly summery. :)
Blue sky nothing but blue sky from now on!

Five Friday Faves Earth Day Edition
Since
Earthday is Sunday, I thought I would do a FFF post dedicated to some of my favorite Eco-Friendly beauty products. Recently I have been trying to switch all my beauty products over to eco-friendly brands. (I always buy no animal tested products/Vegan products) but I've been trying really hard to buy from companies that actual and aren't just trying to "greenwash" I realize that I could try and make my own, but I don't even cook food, so lets be reasonable here folks.
La Vanilla, Vanilla Coconut Perfume
Tarte LipSurgence Lipstain
I have yet to find a better lip color then these. They come in glossy , they come matte and they are AMAZING. This has been my go to for a awhile now. I am a lip product junkie. I have yet to find a lip product as good at these.
*I also love their Lights Camera Action! Mascara, and Tipsy Natural Cheek Stain.
Sparitual Nail Polish
Hands down the BEST nail polish. Its stays on had fantastic color choices and an easy grip top.
And at about $10.00 a bottle is totally reasonable!
Lush Oatfix Face Mask
Smells delicious! Recently I got a horrible burn from using Benzoyl Peroxide on my skin. It was bright red and itched liked crazy. This is the only think that made it normal.
*Since trying the mask I've also started using, T for Toes Dusting Powder.
La Vanilla, Vanilla Coconut Perfume
This is the first perfume I've ever found that doesn't leaving me sneezing or with a headache.
It doesn't have a bunch of crap it in, and I of course love anything that smells liek coconut.
Pureolgy Anti-Split Blowdry
Hair stuff. Smells good. Protects hair from heat. Love it
All products, are Vegan, not tested of animals, uses earth friendly ingredients and minimal packaging. :)

Happy
This is my favorite quote:
Hands down. I love it. I have it on my wall. I want to get it tattooed on my shoulder.
Its my favorite saying and all too often I forget to actually do it. See, I'm really good at getting advice and listening to my friends. But I'm beginning to think if something could make me happy, and its not truly harmful to anyone shouldn't I maybe just give it a try? Even if some of my friends think its a bad idea? I love my friends, they are amazing, they're intentions are all good, but sometimes I think I listen to much to what they say, and not always do what I want. I'm almost 30 for hells sake. You think I should be able to make more decisions on my own, based solely on if I think they desired income might make me happy.
I watch my friends ignore my opinion all the time. On everything from what pants to buy, what boys to date, what bar to go to, what trip to take, or whatever. I honestly don't get offended if they don't take my suggestion. They do what they think will make them happy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Oh well. That's life. You live and you learn.
I am blessed. I have a roof over my head, a job, food, I know some wonderful people. I'm pretty set I think. I am lucky. I really like 2012. But as I approach 30 I think its time for me to rally. Stand on my own to feet. Take a few more risks. Ask myself: "Will this make me happy?" I should worry less about my friends opinions. If I truly want to "Follow my bliss" I should. Even if it means some people don't agree with my choices along the way.

Announcement
I have a new boyfriend. His name is Cory Monteith.
You guys don't really think I'd cheat on my husband James Franco do you?
I mean come on now.
But seriously, how totes adorbes are me and Finn Hudson/Cory Monteith?
Anywho, I heard on the news that there was a celeb event at The Canyons for Operation Smile yesterday, so I rallied Courtney and we ventured up to see what/who we could find. Were we literally there an hour, and found plenty. For a random Saturday in March I consider it a success!
We were not there two mins before we saw Jesse Tyler Fergerson. He was so nice! And his boyfriend is hot.

I'm loving my double shot with JTF, and Ty Burrell. I LOVE Modern family and have wanted a photo with Ty forever. Which I realize is lame seeing he owns a bar here and lives here half the time. But I won't be judged. He is hard to find!
Jason Issacs I was scared of. I met him years ago and he was super nice but since then I've not heard the best things. Needless to say, I approached with caution. He was very kind and I was pleased.When I asked to take a picture he said "Absolutely Darling!" His new show really confuses and stresses me out.
Whitney Cummings She is a doll and I have thought she was super funny since I watched her on Chelsea Lately.
Nothing better then seeing Harry Shum Jr, and just thinking "It's Mike Chang! It's Mike Chang!" Yes I had to google his real name before approaching.
Lisa Kudrow! Yes, I've met her before, but I don't love the pic. Maybe 30 seconds after this photo was taken I got in a fight with a girl about who is a bigger FRIENDS fan. Maybe it made things awkward. No it was not the creeper in the background.
And yes, Cory was nice. Super nice actually he thought we had met before and kept saying I looked familiar. He asked if his snowboard could be in the pic. He thought that looked cooler. I was really excited that he was such a friendly guy. And I like how cute we looks. I've always considered myself a Puck girl, but Finn gained some points this weekend.
What a pleasant surprise!

Mom
Dear Friends,
Recently my mom has taken very sick. I checked her into the hospital this past Monday and they have realized she has a leaky valve. This means she is in heart failure. She is awake and talking but she feels horrible and it looks like she will be in the hospital for quite sometime. They are running tests and eventually there will be a surgery. Please send your positive healthy thoughts, wishes and love her way.
Thanks.

Purse & Shoes
I've been the worst blogger lately. I'm terrible. I apologize. But in some news I went to the Nordstrom triple points thing lasts week. And bought myself a prezzie. I've been so good at not buying anything lately. I gave in. But I just bought these two things, so I feel I did pretty good.
