Let's talk about S baby..

Let's talk about STRESS baby, let's talk about you and me....
Seriously though. What is stress? Stress is what I look like every minute of the day. Stress is what makes my ever so relaxed, smart, analytical husband fold like a lawn chair. SMACK! Down for the count and he ain't resurfacing till the sun is shining and I have reclaimed all the pieces of the mess whilst going blind gluing each tiny piece back together. Stress is me writing this post at 3:30 in the morning. Stress is the reason that at 22 I feel the need to use an age defying face wash and moisturizer. Do wrinkles exist at 22? Honey please, wrinkles exist at all times in the land of Megan. Whether butt or face, same diff still there! Stress is why while I should be sleeping right now, I can't. I am too wound up. Stress is why my A word won't quit and my upper arms wave back to me. Stress is why I have given up on what used to be great group of friends and is now divided into the Montague's, and the Capulet's. Stress is why I can multi-task like the British are coming. I remember as a wee young lass, thinking how wonderful it would be to have a husband. He would be there for me. He would bring me flowers and buy me presents. He would do the dishes and make me romantic dinners. So what happened? I will tell you what happened! The minute I married him, an invisible tattoo was placed on my forehead that says "may I please have another job?" Now for all of you who could see this...Rude I hate you for not telling me it was there. And as for me, I have taken up Rastafarian hats. What is it about men, that the second it gets a little hairy they hit the ground running, it's like the little roadrunner cartoon, only we are the coyote's and the anvils are stacks of dishes and laundry. Don't worry though, I have a plan! A plan! A Plan! guess what it is? I will be the best wife, friend, student, housekeeper, mother (someday), employee, designer, daughter, and sister. Then I am going to be committed. Because there I will be able to sit in the peace and quiet, eat a prepared meal while it is still warm, and read twilight as much as I want, and with a jumpsuit, i will have no stress picking out what I will be wearing the next day. I will lounge on my cot and listen to the sweet sound of insane silence.

'08 was Great!

So obvioulsy I am horrible at keeping up at this continually blogging thing. So instead of writing a post I am going to show you all what my '08 was like! Me and the Husb and our fam and friends! Oh don't worry...there will be captions! As if I could keep my mouth shut for more than 2 minutes...NOT! Hey! Remember when people used to say that ll the time? Not! Well I apprarently did not get he memo that is not cool anymore. Duh duh duuuuuuh! Ok anyway, without further ado, her is our 2008 in Pictures!

I started the year out right by enjoying some mocktails with my best friend Meag!


Ty and I went to Europe with some awesome friends! All so we could get attacked by these lovely Italian pigeons!


Here we are in Paris, at the Louvre, We were in Paris for Valentines Day! I know so romantic right?


My Friend Kat and I just taking a break at Notre Dame!

For our two year anniversary in May, we went to St. Georgy and had a lovely honeymoon revival...WINK!


We went to Hawaii with my fam for a little over a week. The best Family Vaca ever!

Don't Worry he deserved it!

Let me tell you how our days were spent there.....Tyler dug two to three really deep holes a day on the beach. Then he would sit in them and let them fill back up on him....He's a Keeper!

....and of course, we got crispy fried!


Nikki finally got married! Here we are the 3 Megans. All bridesmaids, all beautimous!

With the wedding came my favorite. This is like one of my most beloved pictures of us...she helps me to try and stay sane.


This is waht happens when she is here.....my true colors SHINE!

I learned to be really good at Wake surfing and Wakeboarding. This is me surfing for like 1/2 an hour without the Rope! That's right!


Ty is of course way better than I am...He is always such a pro!

These are all my friends in Lehi at my farewell dinner! I miss them so much! But things change when you decide to go back to school!

I got a visit form my fam for Homecoming! It was so much fun and I miss them terribly!

My sisters all took turn trying on the Chester the Molester mustache...very attractive.

Apparently she is Chester the Gangster?!?

Shhh....He still doesn't know how creepy he looks in his sleep!

My sister and I had Megan and Molly's weekend o' fun '08. She is awesome!


White man can't jump.....White women can!

Ty's fam...kicked it logan style with us for x mas this year.

We are so in love

Super cute sis in law!

Family Photo we gave to ty's mom....She loves it...I know it!

We all decided the best way to feel the spirit of Christmas was to adorn one of the many christmas sweaters that ty's mom owns....needless to say, WE. ARE. SO. HOT.

Pop ya collar!

I hope this was as fun for you all to look at as it was for me. Many more things happened this year that we did not get the chance to photograph or mention, but the jist of it is, we are incredibly blessed to have so many awesoem friends and wonderful family! We want everyone to know how thankful we are for the people in our lives. We love you! We look forward to sharing another year full of great times! Happy new year to you all....even though it is January 17th!
LOVE

I am annoying/Christmas

There are a few things that have been running through my mind lately. I am not really sure why they just seem to pop right in there. Especially when I don't have time to think about them. Things like killer blogs, Christmas meal plans, and color harmonies with a dash of trigonometry. Random...yes. For those of you who know me...I am sure you are not surprised that all of these thoughts happen at once and will randomly come out in the midst of conversation. ( spoken to the husb from the kitchen with a raised voice...side note...not yelling just loud enough to hear even if it doesn't seem that way...) " Artichoke and Sun-dried Tomato pasta have a analogous color harmony and if you want any of that harmony in your belly you better finish your math homework!" Obviously you can all see as to why I am so annoying to my husband. It's like...oh. my. lanta. The girl has absolutely no common sense in her. period. This maybe true. In fact I am quite positive it is. However despite the weird, quirky, and irregularity that is my mind...he LOVES me. This to me is the oddest thing of all. I mean not just my insides, he likes my outside too. He loves my badonkadonk, my juicy doubles, and the Elephantitus of the lower section of my calves...(Note to all those of you who hate when I use the C word....NOTICE I DID NOT!) (and for those of you who do not know what C word I am talking about and you thought of the dirty one...ha ha...seriously though, shame on you!) None the less, I am quite shocked and sometimes appalled at the audacity of this young man who wears my ring. He must be as crazy as me.

PAUSE= Proof that male species Tyler genus is a little coo koo. For his final paper in his english class, he decided it would be to his advantage to write of the time he bashed my head into a boulder. BOOM. Down for the count. Yay! Memories!

Right so you get the idea that husband is nuts, and I am annoying.....now on to the good stuff!
guess what time it is? For those of you who just said tool time in your mind...I love you.
It's Christmas Time!
Boo. Ya.
I heart Christmas. I really really do. What could be better to a girl in constant seek mode for fancy and sparkly descriptive things than Christmas time? Cello you gotta base! (Name that movie) So here are some pictures of my cute little tiny apartment and our Christmas palooza 08...em kay?

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas tree...how lovely are your smelly branches

Yes its true we are truly american...we do hang our stockings on the tv!

The view from the tree as it watches me sleep every night....I just creeped myself out.

Go west Young Man.

We have giant balls that we just let hang out all day.

So there you have it. Christmas in the E vans house! Word. I am very excited about it this year because we get to have all of Ty's fam here and W O A H ! its gonna be a butt load of fun. I hate that word...Butt Load...whoever made that up...I bet you 20 bucks they are from tooele.
Thats all for now. Love to all! Happy holidays! Ho Ho Ho

Ok Ok Ok I will say it...

I OFFICIALLY SUCK AT BLOGGING! I have to admit I love to read everyone else s and I check like everyday...but when it comes to my own blog spawn, I am startlingly inept. I apologize and I swear I am trying to do better. I really am. It is just so hard and I never want to post just some random thought or a lame blog I want to post funny or inspiring or something totally rockin...and alas my blog gets nothing! You see therefore I am trying to get over my desire to make my blog oh so insightful and change it to be just a grand old blog. Shall we play catch up?
I am going crazy in school and I have been working hard. I am up until about 3 every night doing the H word, and then up again at 7 to finish the H word. But it is not without recognition... ( PS I am bragging right here so if this is going to bug you skip to the next paragraph) I have been invited to be Magna Cum Laude. Which means I am in the National Honors Soceity and I get to say Magna Cum Laude when I graduate....if that ever happens.
A little while back my sista came up and WOAH! That was a good time! Let me tell you! she is crazy and I love her! Her are some pics of us being....well us!

We are being called back to heaven.....or being lifted by evil spirits.....you decide

She is a witch! She shrunk me and is forcing me to stay in her pocket and puls me out to laugh at me.....Karma sucks!

Tree Hugger
Oh pizzokie your sweet warm gooey cookie with deliciously cool ice cream...
Crikey!

Getting Lucky!

Shun the none believer

We are like Mike!

All in all I think you can see. We had a blast...She is so funny! I love her! I call her manly because sometimes I accidentally say that instead of molly and it is stuck now...she is not though...manly that is. So next on the agenda...Thanksgiving. It was great we got to hang out back in the UC for almost a week! We got to see some good friends and hang with the fam! LOVE IT! the food was of course incredible! We ate pretty early in the day so by the time we were hungry again...MIDNIGHT TURKEY TACOS......oh sweet mercy. Tres bon. We did not go shopping on black Friday... as fun as that would have been... we are trying to spend wisely. You know the whole follow the prophets advice kinda deal. We have been very blessed. So much to be thankful for. In fact too much to write...so if you want to know...call me. I will tell you on the phone.
Ty and I are really excited for Christmas. We have a lot of fun things planned. Seriously. We are done with school in like 2 days...HOORAY! Well for the season anyway. Christmas for us will take place up here in lo this year. I am really looking forward to it. Nothing like Christmas with your whole family(in law family) holed up under one roof and enjoying it B&B style! Yeah baby.
I know this is sort of a boring post, all I have to say is....Ha ha sucker you read the whole thing! Just kidding! LOVE TO ALL!

Atencion! Si'l vous plait!

I have an announcement to make...Pay close attention you do not want to miss this! I am officially going to live in Europe for 1 Month this summer! Studying architecture, design, and art! Could I be anymore happy right now?! I think not! Here is just a peek of whats ahead!

Oh Italy with your cobbled streets and pretty window boxes! How I will love to drink you in while staying in Florence, Venice, and Rome!

The Winged Victory, The Nike Of Samothrace, My very favorite piece of art in all the 30,000 years I have studied, you are the one that still takes my breathe away every time. You have my heart! I will gaze at your beautiful classic proportions and grace while spending a week in Paris!


But wait! There is more! Places I have never been and am dieing to see! Take a look for yourself!
That's right London Baby! 2 whole weeks thank you very much! Here are a few other things we will see in England!


Ok so I have to say I am so excited! I know I am totally bragging right now and feel free to hate me! I would hate me right now too! But Seriously I am so blessed to be able to do this, and I can't wait to go! P.S. Husband for rent for the month of July in '09.......call with resume.

3,2,1 GO!

Ok so I really don't like it when people just dedicate an entire blog to one person. I think it is a little rude and kind of dumb. I would much rather read a blog that has something interesting and insightful or funny to read, than an ode to some person or another. I mean write the freakin person a card already! Holy cow. I know I am probably the only person who holds this opinion, because I see it on lots of peoples blogs all the time! So if this is you, do not take offense. I am just a little off my rocker! So this blog goes out to my three favorite friends. Not one!
You know who you are! I will tell you why I love these three so much I cannot even stand it, and then you too will understand the awesomeness.
Person #1:
This person keeps me sane. This person accepts me all the time even when I am not doing her most favorite things. She is my stability, and my clone in everyway except physically where she exceeds me in 110%! She is the friend that after my ranting or venting, she asks me if I want her to be my friend or if I want her to tell me the truth. I love that she will always be honest and forthright with me. I love that I can call her mean names and yell at her and then 5 min later be laughing and happier than ever. I love her and I swear I cannot survive a day without a fix! She is also ridiculously handy with random information and seems to have answers to every question! Plus she is like slap your grandma funny!
Person #2
This person is one of the funnest parts of my life. Despite having tendencies toward the same evrything, we even sound the same. Except when there is squeling involved, That is all HER! She is always good for a gut laugh and remembers my most graceful moments better than I do! She is so smart, that I swear she like reads the encyclopedia at night when no one is watching. She is my accomplice in almost all of my best work, and has fabulous taste in clothes! She keeps me in check with reality and helps to remind me that I might be getting a little too far out in left field! She is very patient and very good at keeping a calm head during tense situations! It is because of her that I have a very special someone in my life, and for that I am forever grateful!
Person #3
She is like my life history in one little person. We very much have the same personality and are both very much type A's. She will forever hold a special place in my heart, and I will never be able to forget our special times. She is so daring and loud that just being around her makes you the same. She is very charismatic, and has some of the best shoes I have ever seen. She has molded me in so many ways that I can't really tell whether I learned something or if she taught me. She makes me happy and comfortable in almost every situation. I can always depend on her for a good sarcastic comment and a great bite of food! She has some of my favorite memories and I am always so comfortable being my boy band loving self with pumpkin chocolate cookie in hand! I have explored some of my worst fashion ideas while she patiently watched and waited with a nice normal alternative on hand! She rightfully owns my most embaressing moments, and if she ever wanted blackmail. I would have to move to another country! I love her courage and strength. I always look to her for the next step and I am proud of how far she has come in life.

The only problem is, Everything good about one is true for all, and I could never ask for a more balanced and loving circle of friends. I have become who I am because of all of you. Everything I strive to be in life I see in you three and I am so blessed to have such strength and beauty around me! So thanks to the lovely ladies of my life! You all have fabulous boobs, and I love ya!

If I Get One More Tag, I Might Kill My Bestest Friends With Dental Floss!

Oh I hate doing these things. However I feel completely obligated because count them......ALL of my bloody friends tagged me and since that makes me a complete lame a#& if I dont do it. Thus I have given in against all my fighting in my head and here are my weirds:

1. I have an insanely large fetish with large rings. It doesn't matter whether they are cheap, expensive, old, new, or tacky....I love them all. You will almost never ever catch me with out a honkin big ring on my middle finger of my right hand. It is like a bra for me. I feel all loose and uncomfotable without them. Currently I own over 17ish rings. I want more. I need more. Oh Baby Oh Baby!

2. I love to read those cheap paperback books you see in the checkout line at the supermarket. I love the mystery ones with a splash of trashy romance. Shh....Don't tell the Bishop!

3. I have a hard time spending more than $20 on any item of clothing except when it comes to jeans.....dropping 150 bones on a slick pair of denim is like breathing for me. I have a slight addiction to dark denim, with supple wear and tare and thick stitching! Kill Me Now!

4. My husband makes fun of me because anytime I go to a restaurant or make something ridiculously dilicious, I get so excited, and I bounce in my seat, I am fidgety and impatient waiting for the rich succulence to bounce off my tongue, and then as soon as it hits my mouth; FOODGASM! I am not even kidding you. Its like my toes curl in passion and my eyes roll back in my head as a slight moan of pleasure rumbles in my throat. I swear if it were sex or food, there would be no contest!

5. So I called my best friend in question of, What in the world are my quirks , becasue obviously to me, it would seem all normal. Well Apparently I talk with my hands like its going out of style. I said to her, everyone talks with their hands, and she says, no no no You really talk with your hands. I swear she could figure out what I am saying just by my hand movements.

6. The soap to faucet ratio, this is the end of time when a certain eternal ball and chain of mine, doesn't comply to the OCD ness that is my soap to faucet ratio. The soap has to be in the exact 45 degree angle to the handle of the faucet, and at least 4 inches away. The soap pump needs to be facing the sink diagonal to the faucet, and the label should be a flat plane following the arc of the sink bowl. The towl will be placed opposite side of the sink from the soap. There can be no soap on the bottle or rsidue of anykind. Just clean pure soap. Now have no fear if you ever come to my house, I will not be mad at you. It doesn't bother me when other people mess it up. Just husb.

There ya have it. My all too showing quirks. Ihope you are happy. If you speak of this to me, I will pretend I don't know what you are talking about....WINK!
