Too flat for your taste??
So this coming summer is my 10 year mark for my reconstructive surgery that was done on my ankles. This surgery has a good chance of not needing to be done again if you follow some fairly simple rules. One of which never seemed to sink in until recently...well several of them actually. Remember my longboarding accident back in November? The most important thing I can do for the TLC of my lil' feet is that of wearing appropriate shoes. Now I love shoes; I love flip flops, sandals, skate shoes, you get the idea. But most of all I love any type of pump, wedge, and pertty heels or stilettos. Especially if it comes in patent leather! So it's been a battle within myself to not wear inappropriate footwear; if there is such a fauw pas. (my first attempt at using that phrase-did I do it correctly?) Anyways ever since the accident this last winter I just don't enjoy my pretty shoes as much. They aren't comfortable and it just creates pain where I don't want it. So seeing as I know I should give up the pretty shoes and extra heigth I am hoping to welcome in some pretty new ones. So I browsed around tonight and I found the following. Which do you like best? Do you ever wear flats? Or are they just too flat to taste? 
Feliz viernes santo!
Today and every day forward will be a holiday. Every day should be a holiday of great gooey goodness! I can picture it now; duh okay so I think in my own lil world I'm already livin it!
How I wish you could expereince California right along with me. Just tonight the scent of spring is lucious...totally to die for peeps. I don't believe words could do the evening justice. So i'll just leave it at that. Wish you all were here to enjoy the scentsational night with me.
Moving on to other topics HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY! (although when you read this it will be Easter Eve) For those who celebrated Good Friday I hope you found it enjoyable and to your satisfaction. Now I believe it was a good friday for myself. Good as any other - but way BETTER!
I fo sho appreciated it for the holiday it is and it prepped me for Easter but it was fitting to just know I had a good friday.
Yay for Easter!! So Easter is such a special time for me. It has to be one of my top faves; definately in my top three! I have so much love for my savior at this time of year. When I was in young women's Sister LillyAnne put together special envelopes for each of us and it was to help us learn of and grow in love and appreciation for our savior, Jesus Christ. She titled it something along the lines of 21 days of coming closer to Christ; to that extent anyways. I read this over and over year after year and have come to have a greater compassion of the Atonement and all it blesses me with in my individual life. I have had many wonderful experiences that remind me of this and more so in the month of April. So peeps just a shout out to wish you all a wonderful Easter! I hope it brings you as much love and joy as it does me.

Just the beginning
So can I begin by saying HOLY COW PEEPs!! Where do I begin?! So I hit up a few Nuggies games this last week. I have to say if I wasn't already in love with them I LOVE them even more after seein them at the pepsi center!!
YAY for basketball...
The time has come for the pics! I didn't post a lot although I took megaloads! I love basketball!
This was so funny! The above shot was taken right after that mammoth (which is walkin away) knocked out the eagle(spwraled out on the floor)-unfortunatley the image I captured of the KO takin place was blurrier than this one :( So anyways if you are wondering why the mascots were even out it was because they had a halftime dodgeball game wit the mascots for the various denver teams. This was Tawna's fave part I think.

What the ramblings?!
So I have so many things to talk about that would make perfectly lovely posts. Yet none of them are really any that strike my fancy at the moment. I'm lame and I have realized it, come to terms, and now I'm moving on. So I guess one thing I know I'm overly joyed about and I'm very content with sharing is the topic of Twilight! (the movie) I still am a fence sitter in coversation but as soon as I get it in front of me i'm sucked in. I think I spoiled it by having seen it so many times; by doing so I now can't decide if I love it or just like it. Duh com'n I can't lie-I LOVE it. So peeps if you haven't seen it get out from under the shell and embrace it. Even if you dislike it just knowing you saw it won't hurt your ego; at least if I were to have a say.
I am in California for those of you that don't know; visiting some family. Now it's been well a good 18 months since I have been exposed to humidity. The last time being mid summer on the coast of Cape May. I embraced the humidity while there because I was living on the beach day in and day out. Although California is a good place to be if you were achin for a visit to the beach-this is not the case. So peeps I am embracin the curls head on and maybe by the time I return to Colorado I will be in love wit them. Let's just say my hair is a fan of humidity but def not a friend to me if I make an attempt to style the norm. So pack up the round brush and straightners cause they ain't seein the light of day for a bit.
now where'd I put that mousse?

Just believe it!!
So I have been trying as of lately to better myself. Internalizing everything and trying to make sure I don't judge anything without really thinking about it. Does that make sense? I guess really I should start by explaining that I just want to make sure that I'm happy with who I am as well as giving everyone that same opportuntiy. How can each of us be happy if all we can think about is what others are thinking of us?
Duh we can't-we're not built that way; even if we act like it the majority of our time.
Anyways I think I may have had what would be classified as one of the better conversations I've had in my short lived life. We spoke of so many numerous things which all seemed to come back to one thing. The root of it all is LOVE! Love is so vital helping us as individuals grow. Also through doing so we help one another grow as well. So much so that we eventually become intertwined and meshed. SO IMPORTANT.
Here I have knowledge of a lot of the basic fundamentals and principles that will help me to be the better me. I know of things that will bless me day to day if I but sacrifice and do them. Which then thinking of sacrifice I think well isn't that lame. Sacrifice is sometimes...I mean always a selfless act. We seldom gain anything tangible in return. So why do it? I know that I although it is existing knowledge within my better self I don't always remember it. That is until I sacrifice time and time again. So it is a cycle that although not always apparent it exists.
Just the idea of service sparks my interest and makes me feel happy. So if I then act on the thought think about what it will then do for me. I love the light that it illuminates me with-from the inside out!
So although this is a lot of words (that's what my mum says the majority of my posts are ha) I don't want to keep forgetting this so I put it down on blog so perhaps it will help me remember.
Let's try and work together more to lift one another up. Let us look at ourselves and love us for our weaknesses. If we are able to work together our weaknesses can become strengths.
And although easy at times to feel like we're kicked down the majority of the time we can succeed. It is is possible and if we can do as my sister Ashley says to me more often than not "Steph, visualize what will make you happy; and if you can see it then that means you are capable!" (p.s. that may be a lil out of context but that is how I remember her sayin it)

I thought all this time I enjoyed baking. Well peeps-guess again. I think I loathe it now. I want nothing to do with baking ever again. I can't even make a simple cake.
Sit and think for a while
Hmm now that I have discovered that I totally just deleted my post in its entirety I guess I thought about it and have decided I'll write about something else.
I was reading a magazine last night and in it were some photos taken under a special UV filter that captures sun damage beneath the skin's surface. It is pretty crazy stuff to look at, and makes me think twice about putting sunblock on now.
