Flashback Friday: Falling for You

This time each year is so nostalgic for me. I don't know what it is but it takes me right back to my first semester that I moved to Provo. I was still getting use to the place. Brooke and I still pretty much only had each other, but my friendship with Becca and Cassie was growing AND I started dating Craig for the first time.

Most of you know that our first go around was anything less than successful. I was in a weird place and he was just weird. {I say that in love}. But I do have some music that I loved to listen to so anytime these songs come on I think of Fall and dating Craig. 

-Anything Regina Spektor (Samson is a favorite though.)

-Mother, We Just Can't Get Enough  (This one in particular reminds me of riding the bus everywhere too.)

The bus was so cramped when it got cold.

-Superhuman by Chris Brown. (This one makes me laugh.)

And now I'm realizing these songs make it seem like I was obsessed with him...

Well, that's all. You can see what I thought back then here and here. 

Happy Fall, I'll be decorating for Halloween tomorrow!!

Flashback Friday

Here is a little fact about me, I have a terrible memory. It is a little frightening to me how little I remember things from my past and I love my life and want to remember it all, which is a big reason I love to blog so I can remember the little things. So my new idea is to do a Flashback Friday each week, where I will dig deep into my memories and pull out something I remember, hoping that it will stir something in my little brain and memories of my life will flood in :)

So, hello my name is Kayla. Well at least that is what I wanted desperately to be called when I was little. I had a friend who lived down the street and for whatever reason, I wanted her name! Every time we played house my name was Kayla. Ask any of my relatives and they can attest to this fact, which is testament to how often I proclaimed my new identity. 

This picture was taken at my Grandma Willis' house  in Mesa. We spent a lot of time over there and it was heaven! My little ponies, playing in wheat, swimming, grandma's red jello popsicles and the biggest backyard in the world. It was awesome!

I don't know when or why but the Kayla phase eventually wore off and I went back to being Kelsey.
