My birthday is on Sunday... I'm turning nineteen. I know that's a big deal for guys in the church, but it's not really a big deal for many girls. About a year ago, when I was talking to Nancy once, we mentioned that neither of us wants to get married too early. I think twenty-one is a great age, and Nancy used to think twenty-four was perfect. I don't know anymore. I mean, I'm not in a position to get married, but thinking that two years from now is my ideal time to get married? I feel like that is way too soon. Also, I love the relationship I'm in, but once Dane leaves, I'll have to start dating again. I can't think of a single person I actually want to go on a date with right now. I'm all confused and nervous. 

I think birthday's tend to cause panic for me. 

BUT, even though I'm away from home, and Nancy, I will most certainly try to make this the best birthday I've ever had. Also I probably will only get one present, from Dane.

But just in case, here are some ideas for all of you readers who possibly have money you want to blow on this poor, sweet, college student...

1.

Size 6

2.

Size 6

3.

Size small

4.


Size small or medium...

5.
Any shoes from Modcloth
The end.

6.
Things that are pretty and lacy and girly and wonderful

Love, Sarai

Don't Leave







Details:

Sarai-
Shirt-Wally's World
Necklace-Icing
Belt-Papaya
Skirt-Thrifted
Socks-Target
Boots-gifted
Bag-Icing

Nancy-
Cardigan-Forever 21? I think
Shirt-thrifted
Skirt-Forever 21
Tights-Icing
Boots-Delias

When Nancy comes to visit, it makes me wish she lived here. I already wish that, but especially when she's actually here. I think the greatest part of her coming to Provo is that she gets to hang out with Dane, which is a  really good thing, considering that I can't exactly date a guy who doesn't like my best friend. They both seem quite fond of each other, at least to a certain extent. Which is nice. Cause if they hated each other, you know who I'd dump. Obviously not Nancy. Duh. I already miss the little rascal.

Also, Dane is the best. He drove her all the way to Salt Lake, and he even picked me up from work today. So insanely sweet.

Love, Sarai

A Single Valentine... A Day Late.

My roommate always likes to leave me notes... on mirrors to be exact.
Example #1
So when I woke up yesterday morning, not only did I find paper with cut out hearts EVERYWHERE but I found this on my mirror. 

She's really convinced i'll find a boy every time I walk out the door... and since I really want babies this picture seemed mighty appropriate :)
I love Valentine's Day even despite the fact that I have never had a real valentine. I like to wear pink, feel cutesy, eat treats, and give people really cute cards. It's the perfect holiday!
~Nancy
p.s. I just went running for the first time in two months and rocked that treadmill! It may have been because I didn't want to look pathetic next to this cute boy... but hey, I still feel good about it. 
p.p.s. I want this to be my wedding song. 



Butterflies, Roses, and Turtles

Blazer-Nancy's
Tanktop-thrifted

I have never had a good Valentine's Day in my entire life. I'm no hater of V-day, but I've always been single, making it just a day for candy and hearts. But this time, I had Dane. My wonderful boyfriend. 
I woke up to this text:

"Happy Valentine's Day to my beautiful girlfriend"

My heart melted a little bit.

Then, like the fantastic lady I am, I brought him cupcakes at work. Just a little surprise plate of goodness :)

Later, Dane showed up in my lobby with roses, Turtle Chocolates (I keep telling him I want a Turtle for my birthday), and a sweet little Valentine's card that he made for me in FHE. Most precious card I've ever gotten.

Then we went to Los Hermanos, and had some deliciousness, and free fried ice cream. Then we made out a little bit :)

So basically, everything about my night was wondrous. I have the most wonderful boyfriend in the world.

Also, I'm so sick of people hating on Valentine's Day. I've always been single on V-day, but does that stop me from ingesting chocolate like there's no tomorrow? Oh heck no.

Love, Sarai

PS:

This song will always be the song that makes me think of Dane <3

The Days

I can't wait for the days of having hair like this again. I never had to do it except when I wanted. Honestly, I went for a whole month not doing anything to my hair. Heaven I tell you. Short hair is fun but it sucks. I complain about this a lot but my hair is being nice and growing quickly. I'm well on my way to having this hair again by the summer! Yay! For now i'm living with braids and buns most days. 
~Nancy

P.S. I would marry Brandon Flowers if he wasn't already married.
