Day 7

BEST FRIEND

My best friend is probably pretty obvious by now :)
You guess it! It's Jacob!

A best friend is:
someone who is always there for you
you tell each other EVERYTHING
you can completely be yourself with
you know absolutely everything about the other person
you know their secrets, fears, dreams, needs
a best friend is the best :)

I mean seriously...who else can you be THIS weird with unless they are your best friend :D

Day 6

Day 6

An Ideal Day

An ideal day for me...

Sleeping in

feeling completely rested

To be honest I'd probably be on my honey moon on my ideal day

waking up next to my dream man

I am not even joking when I say I would work out

I love the feeling after a good work out

I will eat some delicious breakfast (I love breakfast)

with juice

I will look totally hott

Oh, the weather will be perfect

So I'll be in shorts, a tshirt, and flip flops

and I'll be workin' it

I will have beach hair that kind of just falls perfectly

I might do something kind of adventurous on this day

After a completely relaxing day I would go for a night swim

Did I mention I am at the beach?

Well, it is my honeymoon

At the end of this relaxing day I will get to fall asleep next to the man of my dreams

sounds kind of perfect to me

Day 5

Day 5
Define: Love

The very first thought that comes to my mind when I think of love is Jacob Riley Hansen. I love that boy. I can feel it in my whole body. It's the kind of love that you want to stand on the tallest mountain and shout it to the world. The kind that no matter what I do he still looks at me like I'm the most beautiful girl in the world. The kind that I still get butterflies every time he reaches for my hand and completely melt every time he kisses me. The kind that I want to tell him everything all the time because he is my best friend. The kind that no matter what, he won't judge me, he will just love me. The kind that we make each other want to be better. The kind that we would do literally anything for each other. The kind that when he is gone all I think about is him and how proud he makes me. He sweeps me off my feet and continues to amaze me. I am in love.

I think about the love my Heavenly Father has for me, and each one of his children. How he sent his son so that I can be saved. I have a testimony of that love.

I adore the kind of love my parents have for each other. True love! My parents always hug and kiss when they see each other. They are such an example to me.

I also think about the love I have for life. Everything about it is wonderful! Sure, there are trials and things we have to overcome and it often times is not very easy and we may not even understand it, but everything happens for a reason. When I put my faith in the Lord, I know it will all be okay. That makes me happy and I love it. I love the beautiful things there are to see in this world. I love the incredible people I am so blessed to meet. I love the experiences I get to have. I love life!

I am in love with LOVE!

8. Salad! Okay...it might be the dressing that I like the most...but still
9. Reese's...any size/form...that is the treat of choice when Jake and I make a candy run
10. Rolls. The homemade kind that you get for Sunday dinner..mmm...

Day 3

My Parents

My mom was born in Michigan but graduated high school in Switzerland. She kind of did everything from traveling to cool places like Egypt and London to playing all sports like basketball and volleyball. She graduated a year early because she is just that smart! My mom is pretty much amazing!

Random facts about my mom:

She is 5' 8"

She is SUPER creative

She is the Young Women's President

She is super smart

She loves anything chocolate

My dad grew up in Orange County California. He lived on skateboarding to the beach and doing things a teenage boy does...(things we can laugh about now but not so funny at the time). My dad is sooo cool, the kind of dad you actually want to spend time with. In fact, sometimes I think my friends only come over to see him!

Random facts about my dad:

He runs marathons

He speaks Spanish

He HATES sour cream

He is ambitious

I am so blessed :)

My parents met at BYU waaayyy back in the day. My mom was 17 and my dad was 18. My mom was kind of awesome and my dad lucky to have met her....they met at a dance (my mom did not remember him), they saw each other a few days later at a gas station where my dad said to my mom "haven't we met before"...she thought he was full of it but turns out they had met. They dated for almost a whole year before my dad went on his mission to Argentina.

My mom waited for my dad! (like mother like daughter)...and they have been happily married for 21 years!

My parents are in love and it's inspiring! My dad works SO hard for my mom and our family,

My first true love is literally out of a fairy tale...

His son took me on our first date

The rest is history

I pretty much fell head over heels for him on our very first date

I was literally like a little girl with her first crush

I didn't care about anything else other than just hoping I would see him

We have been inseparable ever since our very first date on September 17, 2010

We tell each other EVERYTHING...I'm not even joking a little

We joke about everything

We have secrets

We get each other
