{A.Little.Bita.Country}

Hey there everyone. So I'm so excited to do this blog post. I don't know if alot of you know anything about me so I decided to give you a little piece of me!!!
I was born and raised in Vernal Utah! Woooo Hoooo! I lived there until I was 10 and then we moved to Salt Lake! Vernal was a fun place to grow up but it was also fun moving to Salt Lake near some of my Mom's Family! I lived in West Jordan for about 7 years and then lived in Taylorsville for about 5 years! I started Beauty School my senior year of High school and loved every minute of it! I made some crazy friends that are still some of besties!!
I met the man of my dreams my junior year of high school about 2 weeks before my brother was killed in an car accident!! I know it sounds really corny but I truly believe that we met for a reason! We have been together ever since! He is an incredible husband and father! He is my rock... my best friend.... my protector.......MY EVERYTHING!! We built our first house in Tooele and lived there for about 5 years! While we were living there we had our two beautiful kiddos SWEET Say and River Rooster!! They are my pride and joy! I cant imagine life without them! They make my life soooo crazy but sooo worth every minute!
We moved to Herriman almost 7 years ago and we absolutely love it!
I definitely still have a little country left in me! I love being out of the city enough that there are still farms and horses and property!!

Today I decided to take a little ME TIME cause I was feeling a little BLAH..... and drive around and take some pictures! I woke up to more snow and was really quite depressed! I was soooo feeling the Spring Fever! I swear I was born to live near the ocean!! Anyhow I decided instead of being mad at more snow that I needed to get out and enjoy the beauty of it! Sooo here I go.... snow pants...CHECK
snow boots....CHECK
coat.... CHECK
hat.....CHECK
fully charged camera......CHECK
Off I go.... didn't really know where I was going or what I was going to take pictures of but I was going to go out and tromp through the snow!!! I headed up the canyon and found myself so relaxed and carefree that I didn't even have one thought go through my mind of how bad I hated the snow!
I was thinking how magical and beautiful the snow was how perfect and untouched it looked that I just wanted to lay down and cry or make snow angels or something! I was really caught up in a ton of different emotions!! I think with all the stuff that's been going on in my life this last few months I have forgotten how much I love to take pictures.... to capture the beauty of this magnificent place we call earth! I had forgotten the beauty of the mountains.... the peace of an early morning..... the sounds of the waterfall flowing.... I decided to sit down and just reminisce of the things that bring joy in this life of mine!
I decided this snowstorm was meant for me.... to cleanse my mind of all the negative things that have been eating at me! I'm ready to start a new day with a new look at life!!

Life isn't about waiting for the storms to pass......... It's about learning to dance in the rain!!!

So in honor of the little country girl (Brooklynn Karl) inside of me I decided to play some country tunes on my playlist for all of you!! Hope you enjoy!! These are some of my favorite country artists!! I am also posting some pics of the country things I love about this little town called Herriman that I love soooo sooo much!!
These horses that I came across absolutely loved me!! They were freaking out when I went to leave!! I must have got out of my car 4 or 5 times to just give them a little more love! I seriously felt like a Horse Whisperer :0) HEHEHEHE!! You know how they say that horses are therapeutic?...... I soooo believe that is true!
I know I am a horrible writer so thank you for bearing with me...
I love you all and appreciate the love and support you give me!! I truly Thank YOU!!
