i was previously a harper-recently turned peterson.
im a newlywed. im a dodgers (baseball) fan(atic). im a blogger. im a mormon.
how did my husband & i meet you ask? well you can keep reading if you follow one simple rule-dont judge. jordan was serving his LDS mission in the East Las Vegas area. I happened to live in that area. I do hair & love missionaries. I volunteered to do the missionaries hair as a kind act of service. (you know following my life duty) he soon moved to the area & i thought he was funny-plus i felt like i was back in middle school with a crush. i soon told my mom (BAD but best idea i ever had) that i had a crush on him & i felt guilty considering he was a missionary and all. after this opiphony he was transferred to a new area. my mom got his e-mail address-i emailed him and it took me... oh 2 months to reply to his original email. we emailed for a few months and then stopped. i came to his homecoming in wyoming and one year later-we got hitched for eternity! i think my husband is hot; he thinks im nuts.
you want to know what my family is like? oh ok- well my parents are middle school sweethearts. i used to find them disgusting in love but with my old age & new outlook they are amazing and the best example of love i could ever see. i am the oldest of 3 & the only girl (thankfully). i have 2 brothers: Bryan & Bryce. bryan plays baseball for the real USC and calls himself a cock. bryce is in the nationals organization, he's striving for success in the mlb. no im not bryce harper's sister-hes one of my brothers. my brothers are my best friends. they make me laugh and when they laugh-i laugh harder. i have a strong belief that i picked these people in heaven to call my family-they are the elite. no big deal-but be jealous.
who blogs...shesh so lame-and why? i say-why not! keeping a record of my life through my eyes sounds AWESOME. im not famous-nor do i ever think i will be but HEY! one day my kids will say "hey mom tell me a story" and ill say "hey kids-read one!"
on being a newlywed-its difficult at times but other times its fun & exciting. i miss simple pleasures of single life-like hanging out with my friends & having no responsibility. getting used to living with someone (other than the people ive lived with my whole life) is fun. i hate cleaning up after 2 people but he works & goes to school so my contribution is a clean house. most days i fail on that and its even worse when law & order: svu is on. i wish our newlywed apartment was in las vegas closer to my beloved homies-but his family is awesome. his mom makes me laugh-she doesnt follow a recipe; i love this about her, his dad-he's a funny guy; loves giving everyone a hard time, his brother kyle is very serious & sings so GOOD, his brother reese is married & i dont know them as well because they dont live here. peterson life-its a fun one.
something for the road: i enjoy my own jokes & always laugh at them. i love country music & rap too, a random combination. i cant wait to be a mom. my mom is my best friend. i love photography, the beauty of someone else's mind as a documented moment. i love the gospel- being apart of this church was the best decision i could have committed to. we have a bearded dragon who goes by bodie. i bake like my grandma brooks shes a saint-i love her. i am bull-legged & pigeon-toed; its true, ask anyone. i am writing my history and loving every moment. the end!
