November // One Month. . . .Carpe Freaking Diem

Ethan.

This. Kid. 

Ma dude. Ma main man.

I just want to squish him. It seriously does not get any cuter than him. 

I can't pass up photo booths. I just can't.

Like, how great is this picture?!

Color Me Rad!!

I already want to sign up for another race! This Color Me Rad 5K was SO much fun!! 

I have another race in January that I'm sups excited for.

Anyone want to join me?!

Pre-Race

Post-Race

The Phoenix Temple was finally dedicated!! I cannot get over this place. I love it.

President Uchtdorf: It's little Evie!!

And how cute is Emma taking a selfie with President Uchtdorf?!?!

And please notice that Lauren and her man Kelton came down from Idaho for the dedication, and it actually made my life to see her again. I've missed her.

President Uchtdorf and his wife Harriet are literally some of the cutest people on this earth. It was truly an amazing experience being able to meet a Prophet of God. Watching Ethan during the entire visit was my favorite. You could tell Ethan just loved being there talking to him. President Uchtdorf told Ethan to write him and letter, and Ethan couldn't have been more excited. He is just the cutest old man....and his accent kiiiiiills me. It's honestly 4521820 times better in person. Every time I have spoken to Michael since this day, he pretends to have a German accent, and it's actually my favorite thing ever.

A and I took a little trip to Fashion Square. Terrible idea. I'm now broke! #LoveMeSomeMadewell

And how great are these sparkly sweatpants?! And for only 100?! 

Yeah, not happening. 

But that didn't mean we couldn't at least try them on!

And this quote?! Died. The moment I walked into the Madewell dressing room I HAD to take a picture of it. It's like my new thing. 

Oh, and one time I went to Waffle Love. It was fantastic. The "Nutella Love" is where it is at. 

Take me shopping and I'm yours. 

But, I actually refuse to go shopping on Black Friday. 

I hated just about everybody that came into my store on Thursday night/Friday morning.

I started my shift at 9:30 pm with the essentials...

This was taken at 4:04 am....yes, people were STILL shopping. 

#GoHome

Annnnnnd I clocked out at 5:31 am. Went to bed at 6 and woke up at noon. 

It made for a long day. Ha. Let's never do that again please.

Goals for 2015 have been set.

And I'm super excited about it.

Lots more running (but like 5Ks, not like marathons...ha)

Lots less soda #RIPDietCoke (sorry to Sonic in advance for all of the money they're about to lose)

Lots more Temple Visits

Lots Less Stress (i'll take up yoga maybe idk rn)

I have 31 days to make 2014 my year.

It's happening.

Carpe Diem.

xo,

Mo

P.S. - My BFFL (that I haven't since April) will be here in a few weeks and I'm totes excited about it.

P.S.S. - watch this video...I die every time. #NotEvenSorry

Suns game!!! We played the Brazil Flamingos...I didn't know that was an actual team, but at least we won! And I now finally have a sweet Suns t-shirt! Thanks Luke!!

We don't know how to take normal pictures....

October 18

Mom and I woke up at 5:45 so we could go on a hike and watch the sunrise. You could say it was worth it. 

Night Cleaning Shift at the Temple...Major Booty #HIMYM #TempleCleaning

October 19

So I gave a talk in Church today...haven't done that for a couple years!!

And luckily I had put my phone on silence, because by the time I sat down after my talk, I had 5 text messages and 3 snapchats...all from people who were there "listening" to my talk! ;)

Exhibit A

October 20

Went on another tour of the Temple tonight with my family! And that was after my Mom and I did a volunteer usher shift at 6:45 this morning. 

Seriously, I LOVE this place!

You would never know that 5 seconds before these pictures were taken, Ethan told everyone to "shove it" because he was "tired of this d*** Temple". He's my fave.

October 24

Michael and Kylie came over and went on the Temple tour with us today! So much fun! Love them! 

We also ended up going on the same tour as the Becks. I love these cute kids!

Randommmmm

Watched the cute Beck kids again while their parents did a shift at the Temple! Seriously love them. 

I let Addie play with my phone before she went to school....she added like 5 new people on my snapchat and sent them all messages saying 'Hi'! She's the cutest. 

The couch was uncomfortable, so we sat like this...and Ali actually loves us.

Temple Shift!

And because I like to keep things interesting....

Totally hurt my foot...and guess what?! Its almost completely healed now. Blessings from serving in the Temple.

Finally got to see Baby Bo!! He's getting sooo big!

Yes, I actually still have a job. I'm not always at the Temple. Though I wish I was.

September 4

Sushi date with my cute momma

September 9

I had to work at 7 a.m., so yes, this snapchat was necessary.

After receiving the most rain fall that I'm pretty sure Arizona has ever seen, naturally my friends and I went and played in the giant rain puddles! The water was close to five feet deep....it was crazy. And freezing. And a ton of fun. Too bad none of us took any pictures though...

September 13

THE D-BAT:18-inch corn dog that's pumped full of cheddar cheese and wrapped in bacon 

(it's actually so gross...don't do it)

This kid. His legs are just too long.

The Arizona Diamondbacks went 'Gold' for September. We love Tyler and all of the Hallsey family!! and of course our Arizona Diamondbacks!

Because duck lips and throwin the peace sign are kind of my thing.

Septmeber 14

Totes adorbs.

Oh, and don't sit by Ali and Kyle. They'll take pictures of you while you're sleeping. 

Seth was tired. 

#blesshisheart #CESdevo

Ummm okay, I am totally loving how close the new Phoenix Temple is from my house! I am in love with it. 

One day.

September 16

We went to In-n-Out for dinner before the One Direction concert....you just never know what you're going to see. Guys, she couldn't find a regular outlet to charge her phone, so she huNG IT FROM THE CEILING TO CHARGE.

One Direction Concert!!

September 19

Had so much fun at Michael and Kylie's 'Roast'! It was so fun seeing all of the family that had come into town for the wedding too!!

September 20
