Upgrade! Kind of.. | #75 - New Phone

Image
75. Get a new phone - DONE 2/7/15 It's weird seeing "Jon Smith". I stopped calling him just "Jon" around the time we got engaged. Took me long enough! The phone that I replaced was my very first phone. I got it my senior or junior year of high school. My parents wouldn't let me get one until I had a job and could pay for it myself. I was so happy to finally have a phone. And I have a lot of good memories with it. It survived a lot of drops and a year of nannying. It also was the phone that I texted Jonathan on...I have tons of pictures on my iPod of texts he sent me. I smiled a lot at my phone :) After we got married we wanted to get our own phone plan and new phones (he didn't like his phone either, and we needed to be all responsible and stuff). We decided to go with T-Mobile cause it was cheapest, and we switched my brick phone for my first smart phone. They're pretty decent phones...but the camera SUCKS. Just straight up terrible. The

40. Kiss someone at midnight on New Year's Eve - DONE 12/31/14 I don't have a picture, but I kissed Jonathan at midnight on New Year's Eve of 2014 :) It was cool because in 2 days we were going to get married!! A crazy year was ending and I didn't even know what was in store for 2015. But! I knew that I'd have my best friend by my side. And I did! We started the year with a kiss and had quite the year! Things of note in 2015: Got married :) The Decemberists concert Jonathan graduated from BYU Found out we're having a baby!! Went to San Diego for late honeymoon Birthdays and holidays together for the first time  Um...laughing? Honestly I can't think of anything else. Neither could Jonathan. Haha :) Hopefully by keeping up on the blog this year I'll remember more of the things we've done. The majority of our 2015 was a lot of small moments that made the year great. First year of marriage done! It was a great learning experience fo

Strike a Pose! | #63 - Professional Photos

Image
63. Get professional photos taken - DONE 10/22/14 and 11/29/14 I wanted to do both of these because they happened pretty close together and I love the pictures from them. So! Engagement photos! Done by Clawson Images (Taelor Clawson, a friend I met my first semester at UVU). She was super!! These are some of my favorites! I really wanted to do the pictures in the fall with all the beautiful leaves changing colors. We were a little too late, but they turned out really good, so no complaints :) It also took us (me) forever to decide on outfits, and it seriously took forever to find that dress and even LONGER to find that scarf. We did so much shopping! But Jonathan was a champ through all my indecisiveness and weird worries. And he's still like that. I just love him :) And these, taken on 11/29/15 are my bridals!! :) I found my dress a lot quicker than the engagement photo outfits. The wonderful Danielle Poulsen (my sister-in-law's siste
