"The thing women have yet to learn is nobody gives you power. You just take it."
I know... Another post about being engaged. To those who are not engaged or dating someone (especially around Valentine's Day), I know you want to do a cornucopia of things to me, including but not limited to vomiting on me, punching me, or throwing darts at me. I have included a picture to print off,... Continue Reading →
It was in the middle of January that #clott decided to get married. We picked a date, a venue, a dress, and then a ring. Totally traditional, I know.... (for Mormons). While on our trip to McCall together we were pleased to hear the news that my brother Max and his girlfriend Kara got engaged!... Continue Reading →
Coincidence that I got engaged the same day I posted something on single hood? I think not. I knew that my engagement would soon be coming, but I didn't know if it would be that night or next week. Mr. Bird and I had picked out a day and had already started planning, but I... Continue Reading →
I enjoy the month of October because it is a month that allows you to pretend. It allows us to mask our faces behind those Duck Dynasty Beards, the now infamous skanky ghost costume, or the classic "witch" costume. Scott and I (#clott) attended our first MURDER MYSTERY DINNER. It was a night to remember. We... Continue Reading →
Many of you have been exposed to my obsessive posting of #CLOTT (= Clare + Scott) the new relationship that has consumed my time. I am not shy to say that I am not good at the relationship thing, it has always been something scary. I had been under the impression that a boy would... Continue Reading →
I'm not the biggest reader, and it is not some hidden fact. I once tried to read Gone With The Wind because I got it for my 16th birthday. When they started to talk about Ashley and Lauren I was like my mom got me a book about two girls falling in love? After that... Continue Reading →
We all went to the Potato Bowl starring Utah States foot game team (Harvard Sailing Team). The game was SO BORING, it got to the 4th quarter. I kept saying lets leave. Its a good thing we didn't because the game finally got interesting in the last 7 minutes. I think they just wanted to... Continue Reading →
One of my favorite things to do is manipulate people into doing weird things... I usually egg it on because I know they wont really follow through. I was proven wrong. This Sunday there were some visitors in our kitchen, and honestly they looked so cute together, but SHOCKER, they had just met. I couldn't... Continue Reading →
I have being going on a cornucopia of first dates lately. Something I stress to these young men is creativity. This date blew my mind... He picked me up, and all he had in hand was a mysterious duffel bag. I was instantly excited. He opened my door for me, and the adventure began. He... Continue Reading →
I have grudgingly signed up for an institute class this Fall. Many may think, "Oh Clare she is an RM (returned missionary), she must love things like Institute!" FALSE!!! I do not, it has always been something hard for me to succumb to. However I decided I would women up and take a class with my roommate. Did I mention that it was Celestial Marriage?...
