Ok. I am going to try REALLY hard not to get preachy here but I feel like I have to say it. I have looked at a lot of blogs lately with the vast majority of them being to married women. And when there is one for a single person they always preface it like this...

"So I know single people shouldn't have these..." or "I was going to wait until I was married but since this hasn't happened yet..."

And for some reason this really bugs me. I mean, I am embarrassed that I have a blog whether I am single or married but I guess I didn't know that the right to have a blog only comes when you are married. Is that part of the wedding vow? You promise to have and to hold and to blog?

 

I guess it kind of bothers me because I feel like it fits into the whole "your life doesn't count until your married" atmosphere that exists around here. Back in AZ, I hardly thought about it but here in Rexburg you are lucky if you can get through 5 minutes without marriage being brought up some way or another. Please don't get me wrong, I LOVE my married friends & their blogs are amazing. They are the ones who got me into this whole blogging thing because their blogs are so darn cute! But I feel like life is pretty good for me too and I would love to share that with you guys through my blog! 

So Ali, my dear sister...be loud and be proud about your blog! you are welcome.

In other news...please tell me I am not the only person in the world who loves DWTS (yeah I abbreviate it now. Me & Dancing With the Stars are Pretty Tight). I have a new fave. It's Chelsie Hightower and snowboarder Louie Vito. They are just too darn cute. And their little number last monday was showing some definite sexual tension...I mean come one, look at this picture.

 

Can I just say I would love to be on DWTS if I could look like that. To use my dad's fave phrase...YOWZA!
