things i love - july

•  The ocean. I don’t like to swim in it, but cruising on it is highly recommended by yours truly. Wonder and amazement right here.
• The temple. Pretty sure this one gets better the more you go. It’s been killing me that the temple has been closed since we’ve been home. So glad it re-opens today!
• These sheets. Uh-mazing. Seriously, the softest things ever. Get them. And the pillowcases.
• Gift cards. We got a bazillion of these things for our wedding, and they have seriously been the bomb.com.
• Mormon messages. We’ve been watching a lot of these lately and the spirit they bring is super sweet. I have yet to find one that doesn’t make me cry.
• Karaoke, mainly for the people watching.
• This brow pencil. I have always been curious as to how these things work because I don’t particularly like my eyebrows and think they could use a lot of help. Got my makeup done at MAC for our bridal shoot, chick used this pencil, sold. Makes such a huge difference, but still natural looking! Love it!
• Laundry. I have been blessed thus far with someone that does my laundry for me, i.e. my mamasita (whose favorite chore is laundry) and BFF Celeste (who tried for a year to teach me). You’re in shock right now, I know. I don’t care. Since becoming a wifey I have taken on the demons called Washer and Dryer. And I have found that I rather enjoy doing it.
• Groupons + Living Social Deals. They have some good stuff. I would suggest you sign up for their emails here and here.
• Hotels. I stayed in five different hotels this month. Five, people. That’s got to be some kind of record. Best part of staying in a hotel: Someone else cleans your room for you. In some hotels, twice a day.
• Maxi dresses. I wear them almost every day. I think this means I need more!! ;) So comfy, so cute.
• Spider solitaire. MRudd and I would play this on the cruise while waiting for shows to start. Didn’t take long for it to become an add-ic-tion.
• Staples OptiFlow pen. Best pen ever. I have an internal meltdown every time I forget it somewhere. One time I forgot it in Tucson, and it was awful.
• Our shower curtain. It makes me so dang happy. Isn’t it happy?
• Jack in the Box’s Oreo shake. Another addiction. A bad one. But oh so good.
• The Olympics. I love me some competition.
• Oh, and my husband. I have one of those now. Awesome! He's the best!
