You’re ready. You stare yourself down in the mirror. “This time it’s for real!”, you say to yourself as your mind briefly flashes to all of your failed attempts. You quickly push the doubts aside with, “Yeah, well it’s the beginning of a New Year, so this try will be different!”. And you’re right…maybe. We’ve all been there. Whether it’s…

It’s Beginning to Sound a Lot Like Christmas I don’t know about your family, but my family has a tradition of putting on holiday tunes while we move throughout the Christmas Day festivities of opening presents and spending time together. Let’s be honest, though – listening to the same holiday songs every year can get a little old. My only…

Silver Bells and the Silver Screen One of my favorite things to do at Christmas time is get together with friends or family and watch holiday movies.

Jake Wixom Provo is to Indie as Seattle was to Grunge Provo . . what the artistic world has come to call an explosive, creative hotspot, and one we call home. Maybe you’ve heard that Provo was recently chosen as one of just a handful of cities to receive Google Fiber, or that Imagine Dragons, a band that is being…

As the weather and temperature around the country is changing to fall season, so has the downtown Provo feel and looks in the past few months. A new facelift that has been much needed for many years of Provo’s business district since been established in the 1800s.

Autumn is in the air – we’re feelin’ it here in Provo! It’s just starting to get cool enough to wear a sweatshirt and drink hot cocoa. For many people fall is just a looming threat of the winter to come. You’ve probably heard talk of an eternal spring. I’m not interested in an eternal spring. I want to live…
