taylor swift concert in salt lake.

you belong to me.

and lastly,

us having fun at the concert.

ps. why can't i ever be serious for a picture?

happy belated mothers day :]

i know this post is coming a little late, but

i've been waiting for our internet to be hooked up in

my new apartment, haha and it STILL isn't.

so this post is coming at you via my neighbors internet cord. :]

but i still wanted to give a shout to my mom.

especially since mother's day was on sunday.

i've got to say that i have the most amazing mom ever.

things i love about my mom:

she has made me everything i am today.

she continues to love me unconditionally.

she has been there for me through EVERYTHING.

she is so talented.

she has set the best example to me and my siblings.

she's the only one that i know that can whip together a prom dress in a week.

her food is delicious.

i love her crazy blonde moments.

she is selfless. she is constantly doing things for others.

she has sacrificed so much for me and my family.

this list could go on forever.

but mom,

remember that i sure do love you. :)

thank you for everything.

i hope that i can be as good as a mom as you someday.

see you in 3 days.

i'm a survivor

thursday i officially finished my first year of college.

woot woot.

i'm a survivor. :]

yay for:

summer.

sunshine.

sleep.

and NO school.

let the fun begin.

mr. macgreggor

well, you guessed it,

yet ANOTHER birthday.

this little twirp

mr. macgreggor

is turning

the big 14.

holy crap.

where does time go honestly?

i had to pull out this picture from 2006.

i was blonde, and he was young.

boy, how things change.

greggor is quite the kid, i tell you what.

you never know what to expect.

he's always up to something. my mother would say "scheming." he's famous for his "mumbling under his breath while getting in trouble," and his "short but sweet prayers." if we want to eat fast, we know who to call on for the blessing of the food. he always has something up his sleeve. he definitely keeps us on our toes. he recently posted his own videos on youtube. describing why you shouldn't judge "offbrand" paintballs just because they are from walmart. my dad told me to watch the videos and i nearly wet my pants. the kid honestly is hilarious. he's also VERY protective. in highschool, when boys would come over, he would do everything in his power to make them feel uncomfortable. he'd tease them to no end. this kid is a thinker. i remember one night, greggor took advantage of having his bedroom on the upper level of our house. as two of my guy friends were leaving, greggor popped out the screen of his window and started attacking them with his airsoft gun. at the time i thought he was the BIGGEST pain in the butt, but now i'll admit, i do miss the kid. (sidenote: hmmm maybe greggor should come live here in logan with me and scare off all the creeper guys that are around here. haha) i can't believe how fast he has grown up. in fact, i think he's even taller than me now. (well who isn't? haha!) but greggor, you little butt, i hope you have a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY. i miss you and love you. see you soon kiddo!

twenty three.

twenty three...

august 23, the day of my dad's, aunt tina's, and uncle trent's birthdays.

23

is ALSO the number of

freaking pieces of JUNKMAIL i have recieved in my mailbox

since turning in my design portfolio, as i have been ever so patiently waiting

for either an acceptance, or a rejection letter

from the interior design department.

finally...

today my letter came.

i am officially a member

of

Utah State University's Interior Design Program. :]

it was well worth the wait.

birthday weekend.

well i'm officially the whopping 19 now.

i feel incredibly old, yet young.

it's kind of a weird feeling to be honest with you.

but anyways, i had quite possibly the best

birthday weekend ever. i don't even know where to begin.

it was a weekend filled with:

food.

family.

friends.

food.

laughing.

more food.

more laughing.

and plenty of pictures.

cristy and misty were home from colorado.

chelsey, lance, and baby carson were home from kaysville.

me, tash, and shalee were all home from college.

and

we were ever so pleased to have

DAN, TAMMY,SAWYER,TANNER,TAYZIA, & JAMARI with us also.

it's been quite awhile since the harmans have all been together, so we enjoyed every last second of it.

saturday night: after the priesthood session, all the adults, including myself, made a good ole' visit to shon hing for our bi-annual conference dinner. it was fantastic. finally, haha i am old enough to attend this event. and i tell you what, being there is alot better than babysitting your siblings til 11 and praying your parents would bring you home leftovers. (haha, i've been doing this since i was 8) so this was a night i had been looking forward to for a long time. haha anyways, the food was so delicious. i think all in attendence had a good time. there's never a dull moment with those harmans around. from their laughs, to their stories, it just never gets old. uncle ryn even got to make a call to the police because of some "gang action" happening outside.

sunday got even better: dan, tammy & their finally showed up

and that's when the real party got started.

we ate, in fact we ate alot. we had it all. turkey, ham, rolls, aunt terisa's delicious potato salad, green salad, chips and dip, fresh fruit, (freak my stomach just growls thinking about it.) and aunt tina brought all sorts of delicious desserts. pretty sure i packed on the pounds this weekend.

after lunch, we took some family pictures.

we have all changed quite a bit since our last one, almost 12 years ago.

crazy how time flies.

anyways after that we played the most hilarious game.

it's called boxers or briefs.

we learned quite a few secrets...

haha and i'll leave it at that. :]

all in all it was a fantastic weekend, and i couldn't think of a better way to spend my birthday than with family.

happy birthday mason. :]

so as most of you know, april is the happenin' month in the harman house.

mine, mason, and greggor's birthdays all fall in april. so it's a month we all look forward to, which is why i was a little surprised when i recieved a rather funny phone call last night.

it was mason....

"hey lish, do you know how many days are in march?"

i reply, "there are 31 days in march mason, and YES i know your birthday is on wednesday."

"well i was just making sure you didn't forget about me!"

then the phone clicked.

i couldn't help but chuckle.

haha this little guy never ceases to make me laugh.

i was 4 days from being 9 when this little kiddo was born.

april fool's day of 1999.

i thought my dad was kidding when he called to tell me that i had a

new little brother.

i even took the little guy to mrs. bradley's class for "show-and-tell."

it's crazy to think that he's now the

BIG TEN YEARS OLD.

mason and i get along entirely too well for being siblings.

which is not a bad thing at all.

mason is one of the most honest kids you'll ever meet.

he's not afraid to say it like it is.

he has the softest heart and has an unconditional love for just about

anyone and anything.

(including his 50 gallon tank of hermit crabs. haha.)

there's never a dull moment with mason.

from his "that's what she said" comments, to his random phone calls,

the kid is adorable.

happy birthday mason!

don't party too hard,

i'll see you bright and early saturday! :]

love you buddy!
