Confessional Friday--a link up!

Today, I am linking up with Leslie over at A Blonde Ambition for Confessional Friday!  

This Friday's post is a simple "getting to know you." 

I know I've had a few new followers lately, and it can sometimes be nice to get a simple refresher of who the person is behind the blog :) so...

Hi! I'm Kelli!

Married to my cutie husband, Taylor.  

I grew up in Sacramento, where two of my siblings and parents still live--and oh, how I miss that beautiful town! 

I married myself a Utahn just over two years ago.

We currently live in Utah (even though I promised myself I would be out by the time I graduated college--I'm slowly falling in love with this sneakily beautiful state, but shhh don't tell taylor)

I'm a high school history teacher--and I often blog about the times I mix up my words, the lessons teenagers teach me, or frustrating situations. 

Oh, and I spend my days taking selfies in my classroom.

okay...not really--but as I was looking through my photobooth, I had an embarrassing amount of images of me sitting at my desk. I promise I don't do this all day.

It gets pretty craycray over here on the blog when you hang out with a bunch of 16-year-olds all day.

(and apparently, I start to talk like them too. craycray? really? i'm embarrassed. ha)

I started blogging in 2012, a couple months after Taylor and I got married.

I mostly started the blog to keep my friends and family updated on our life happenings--but I have since discovered the beautiful blogging world, and I love the friendships I've made!

On this blog, I mostly share the many adventures that I get to take with the best travel buddy around:
(I also like to make videos of our adventures!)

Some other things you should know about me:

1. i'm obsessed with long eyelashes and high cheekbones.

2. i'm always on the hunt for the perfect chocolate-chip-cookie recipe

3. I have a slight running-addiction. My day is not complete without a good 5-8miler on the books.

4. I have a bucket-list item to get in a real fist-fight. because...wouldn't that be so cool?

5. I may teach high school--but I look like I'm in high school.

6. my husband is really tall. it's awesome.

7. I kinda suck at all of the "wifely-duties."  Luckily my husband high-fives me, even when I suck.

8. I can never keep my dresser drawers tidy.
9. I'm a sucker for all things summer.

aaand, last but not least:

10. this guy is the best friend a girl could have!
