Frequent Flyer Miles Anyone....

For some of you that follow my life as a blogger you should appreciate this post! I am off to go and visit Scott again. I will only be gone for five days this time, instead of nine. He wanted me to stay longer but I told him that I have a job that I need to attend to. However, for those of you who feel so inclined to start the Merrily dating fund please feel free to donate to your local Washington Mutual Branch.

As far as I know I will arrive in Vegas late Friday night(thanks to Southwest Airlines) and from there I will be going to drive with Scott to California again. It should be a fun filled time. Anyways that is all that I have to report. I am excited and hopefully it will be a fun filled time.........

Once upon a time.

Once upon a time there was a boy named Scott and a girl named Merrily. They went on a fun trip together to Las Vegas, Nevada, Lake Havisu, Arizona and San Jacinto, California. The boy bought Merrily a plane ticket to come out for a nine day visit. The trip started and ended in Las Vegas, but the fun was just begining. But as some of you know what happens in Vegas is not going to stay there. Here are all the details of the budding romance.

Scott took Merrily to wonderful dinners and one night held her hand. Scott gave her soft kisses and lots of bear hugs. Scott and Merrily went to eat Sushi and sing karaoke. They drove fast cars and went to Newport Beach. They worked hard together and learned about one another. Hopefully soon they will see one another.

I am out to lunch for the next week or so!!

So what I should be doing is packing and getting ready for my trip, but I have to write about the latest and greatest. I am going to visit Scott. For those of you who are not so familiar with Scott scroll down and you can read about him. I am flying out in the morning to go spend the next week with him. Maybe I am crazy I have not quite figured that out yet. I am excted to spend some more time with him. We will be in Arizona at Lake Havisu then on to Vegas and last and not least we will be in sunny southern California. For those of you who are worried about the whole chastity thing.... I have it covered I am staying with my cousin Natalie and Dave in Vegas and Scott's bishop in California. So I will give everyone an update ASAP..... Stay Tuned!

Better than text!

So after six long weeks of texting and late night chats on the phone I finally met Scott Elsmore. We met after the Sunday afternoon session of General Conference. He had driven up from San Jacinto, California. We spent most of Sunday afternoon at Scott's friends house. We had dinner and the host burst out laughing when she found out that we met for the first time about 30 minutes before we got to her house. We ate dinner and hung out. The next day was a food fest. We ate breakfast at IHOP lunch at Don Pedros and Dinner at Red Robin. We went for a drive on the alpine loop and then we went to hang out at my aunt's house for a minute. It was great to spend time with Scott. This Afternoon we went to Lunch at Quiznos and then we went to hangout at my house. Overall it was a fun time and he mentioned that he wanted to fly me down to California and spend more time with him. So time will tell

Another day in my Dating Life...

This is My WElCOME sign for a new Visitor. That is right he is the latest and greatest in my dating life. His name is Scott Elsmore and he is from San Jacinto, California. We have been Chatting for about six weeks. He is a graphic designer and and mr fixit from what he has told me. He told me that he wants to come and visit me for the weekend. He is on his way driving as I write this. Well I decided to make him feel super welcome and I made him this sign. Here is a photo of Scott he is the one in the hat and sunglasses. I told him that we could look eye to eye on a ton of things. Did I mention that he is 5'4. I always knew good things come if small packages. I will let you know if that is true.

Oh yes that is right I am crafty!

Yes I have to brag about myself since Boys are dumb and I am not. I built this flag and I did sew this purse from scratch. I am trying to sell my flags and purses. If you have any ideas for my purse names enter you ideas here....

Another Prince charming update.

So as some of you know I have a darling 6 year old that prays for me on a nightly basis to get married. He must have a boatload of faith because I have some serious doubts. My darling Johnny Walker has not been to interested in chatting this week. My friend and neighbor Heather Pyfer told me to text Johnny on Friday afternoon and invite him to a concert that weekend, and I got shutdown. I felt like I had to walk away with my tail in between my legs. This is why I hate dating and trying to find true love. Because honestly I get shut down or I feel like an idiot all the time. I wish I could understand the brain of a boy and why they feel so inclined to play their stupid mind games. So for those who care and for those who are bored enough to read about my boring love life, send a prayer up on my behalf.

The Circus was in town

So my friend did not want to take her daughter alone to the circus. Kacey asked me if I could go with her. It was fun. We sat with a birds eye view of the circus if you know what I mean. It was fun to see the ring master, clowns, lions, motorcycles, and the elephants. It was like stepping back in time 30 years ago, when I would plead with my parents to take me to the circus. Well have now gone and it is a magical time for children and a great expense for adults. (like the $12.00 cotton candy) As we left the Energy Solutions Arena we got to see the elephants as they exited the building. It was neat to see these majestic animals so close up. Anyways it would have been fun to take my own offspring, however I am still trying to do the whole prince charming thing.

My House I have been Tagged!

So this is my house at its finest. This is usually how it is. I did however already decorate for halloween. Anyways I hope you enjoyed the virtual tour of my house.

BYU v UCLA what a shut out!!!!!

So I sat in the penthouse in the Lavell Edward Stadium. My parents and brother flew out for the game and my other brother drove here from L.A.. It was such a nice time to have the majority of my family together. We had a pregame party at my house and then we ventured out to the game. The game was so fun and we all had a great time. Go cougars!

Jackson Hole September 2008

This was a trip of a lifetime. I went to Jackson Hole, WY this past weekend. As some of you know I love to take photos. So here is the majestic photos from the Teton Mountains. The day was a bit overcast, but it was nonetheless beautiful. I first went to Idaho Falls to meet up with some friends. I stayed the night there and then the following morning we went to the Tetons. I love the beautiful scenery. I hope you enjoy the photos.

Wake Surfing here I come

I think that I have found a new sport that I love. Wake surfing was so fun this Labor day weekend. I went to Utah Lake with a whole bunch of my friends on Saturday afternoon, and I got up wake surfing my first try.
