Please take the time to listen to the song

2012-01-22T15:13:00.000-08:00

This song has been on my mind a lot lately. This beautiful version by Kris Allen was played at my sweet mother-in-laws viewing. This so makes me think of her and how much she loves people...she really wanted everyone to feel her love especially her family. There are times where I just think of how much I loved seeing her smile, and how much she made feel important and part of the family, and I can't help but cry a little. I really miss her and I think of her everyday.

So this past week has been Crazy with a capital C. Not only did I work a full 5 day week but I job shadowed 12 hours, and well we added a new addition to our family. It would be fun if it was a kid but I'm happy with what we got... a new little puppy! He is an American Bulldog and is about six weeks. I've never had a dog, and to be honest I never really wanted one but I'm glad my husband talked me into it because I'm already in love!

He is a good little puppy. Likes to play and likes to cuddle when he's tired. Sometimes I'm sad that we have to leave him in his kennel for like 8 hours while we are at work...I hope he still loves us despite that. We definitely love him and want him to be happy!

So I've decided even though I hate the snow (or should I say driving in it), I still love the month of December, and I'm just realizing that it really is one of my favorite months of the whole year. I love that one Holiday can bring so much family together...it's the little moments that make it special. I've already had a few I can think of this year. Every Sunday we go to my parents house to eat dinner and last Sunday me and my sister put up the tree, as well as the other decorations. Jesse who was playing Call of Duty on the Xbox was not to thrilled that my sister and I were blasting Christmas music, and Casey was not all that happy that we were blasting it in his room, :) good thing we didn't care. It was fun spending time with my sister, because I don't get to do that too often. Another thing that I have loved this year happens each Sunday too. Jesse and my Dad have made a tradition to watch a Clint Eastwood movie every Sunday after dinner, so me, my mom, and my sister decided we would watch a Christmas Movie while they enjoy their manly movie. Oh and yes you guessed it those Hallmark Christmas movies, the ones that make you cry, those are what we watch and well...WE LOVE IT! I'm so excited for the rest of this month. One thing that I can't forget to mention about this month is how I'm reminded of how great the gospel is during this time when we celebrate His birth. I've really been struggling with reading my scriptures....life seems so crazy sometimes and I know that's not an excuse...but this month I have made a goal to read my Scriptures every night. Of course this goal will go beyond the month of December, but I know this will be a great time for me to become closer to the Lord. I want him to know I love him, and that I have a testimony of the gospel. I don't know what I would do with out it. The last thing I want to mention is how much I love and miss my mother-in-law I know this Christmas won't be the easiest without her. I miss her warm smile, miss her love for the holiday, I miss her love for the gospel, and I just miss her period. The one thing that will make this better is knowing that she is in Heaven watching over us, celebrating with us, and most of all I know she is happy!

These pictures here pictures of my beautiful mother-in-law. A courageous, loving, daughter of God ;One that raised six children including my amazing husband. I would just like to share a few memories I have of her. I remember the first time I met her, it was one of Jesse and I's first dates, and I was in the car while he ran in to get something from the house, and she came walking out. I was scared I hoped she'd approve of me. She smiled at me and said hi and my fear disappeared, she was so nice and friendly. The next thing that really sticks out to me is when I was at snow college. I was having a really hard time being away from my family and being away from Jesse. Jesse being the concerned boyfriend he was told his mom, and that night she called me to give me some words of encouragement. Although I don't remember exactly what was said i remember feeling loved, and feeling important she sure had a way of making everyone feel like that. Also at snow college she used to write me letters and send me pictures of Jesse, those letters always cheered me up. Then our wedding came along and I was so happy that she could be there; it was a time where she was feeling a little better and she had a good amount of hair...she was beautiful with or without hair, but I know it meant a lot to her to have it. Another fun thing I remembered was on the first mothers day we were married she gave us a outfit for, well, our future child ha ha. Although we laughed because we were no where near having a kid, it gave me comfort that we had something from her for our first child no matter when that would be. Later on for my birthday I was also lucky enough to receive a childrens book with her voice recorded in it. What a treasure that is going to be for our family. Something that I will always remember is planting flowers with her. I had the chance to do this with her twice, and she had such a love for it. It was amazing to hear all she new about flowers and how dedicated she was to taking care of them, just like her dedication to taking care of her family. There will never be a time where I look at a flower and not think of her. There are so many other things that I could talk about, but these are just a few of my favorite. I Love her and miss her a lot, its hard to think that my children won't get to meet her in this life, but I know she is with them now, and will get to be with them until they come to this earth. What an amazing person, and an amazing example, and what a lucky person I am to be able to be part of her eternal family.

One Person...

2011-08-25T21:00:00.000-07:00

Sometimes we don't realize how much one person can really make a difference in another persons life. Today was a good day for me I got up, got dressed, and went and ran some errands. My last stop happened to be the place where Jesse got my wedding ring. My ring has never been cleaned since we've been married and I also needed to get it re-dipped. When I walked in there was a man that came to greet me. He helped me and was very nice from the moment I came in. By the time I was done giving him my information and getting the receipt so I could come pick my ring up next week we started talking and he said something that I will never forget. He told me that when customers come in he can tell what kind of person they are by their countenance and that my husband is lucky to have me as a wife. I'm not telling you this because I think I am an amazing person or wife, nor am I telling this to brag, but I'm telling you this because its proof that there really are good people in this world. Sometimes I think there is so much rudeness and cruelness in the world, and than I meet someone like this man and I am reminded that there is just as much good. I know it was something small that he did for me, and maybe I'm making a big deal out of it, but it made my day, made me smile, and it made me feel important. All of us try our best and usually feel good about it but it's so nice to actually hear that you are doing alright from someone else.

My List!

2011-08-18T15:53:00.000-07:00

Right now things are hard, trying, and well to be honest not really enjoyable. I know there is so much to be thankful for, but I think it's time for me to write those things down...just to remind me and others that even though there is bad there is always good!!!!

I'm Thankful For....

Jesse
My Family
The Gospel
Friends
Prayer
Kyle and Allyx for letting us stay with them
The knowledge that families can be together forever
Children
The ability to cry
Temples
Scriptures

I really need to be better at blogging...sometimes I wonder if my life is even a bit interesting to anyone else. It doesn't really matter if it is or not, because it is to me. It's also a way for me to get my feelings out and express how thankful I am for all the blessing in my life!

I'm excited I'm going to be making a huge change in my life on the 20th of this month!!! After 3 years in daycare I'm starting a new job at America First Credit Union. I felt so lucky to be chosen for the job. I have banked with them ever since I've had an account and have always been pleased with their service. Now I get to try and give that same service back!

We've loved our apartment, but we are ready to move out. Our lease is ending on July 31st and we are going to move in with two great people Kyle and Allyx. They are two of our best friends and we are very thankful that they offered it to us so we could save some money up. It will be hard to move back in with someone, but we know that it will be a good experience for us all.

I've been really struggling with school this summer semester. My mentality is that it's summer and I wanna have fun. Anyways I'm plugging along and when it ends on August 6th I will be done with school for a whole year. I'm pretty excited for that because I really haven't had a break in a while from school, and there is no reason for me to go until I get into my program since I already have my associates degree.

Life is good and I'm just so glad I get to spend it with Jesse. <3

On my mind....

2011-05-21T17:30:00.000-07:00

I Won't Let Go- Rascal Flatt's

I wonder what people think when they hear this song? Do they think the same things as me? Do they hear the words of a kind savior that is there for us even when we believe we are alone? It makes me think about my life. I've had many trials, and much tribulation...but when it comes right down to it I look back...and no, I was never alone.

Kids, Kids, Kids...

2011-03-06T14:52:00.000-08:00

Let's just say this week Jesse and I had our share of kids and it was great!!! We got to spend time with some of our nieces and nephews. On Thursday night we went over to Brittany and Jared's to watch the three kids (Rylee, Parker, and Crew) while Brittany and Jared had the chance to go to the Jazz game with her Father. It was a fun night! We ate popcorn and watched Nanny McPhee. I know I'm a nerd, but I love Nanny McPhee :] . Little Crew just slept in our arms the whole time.Here is Rylee and Parker watching the movie!!

Then Saturday night Jesse and I got to take Ryker over night. I was so excited, because I used to babysit him everyday in the summer, and now I work and go to school, and don't get the chance to see him as much!!! We had a really fun time. The first thing we did is make play dough!! I wanted to make the kind where you don't have to cook it over the stove, but i followed the wrong directions and ended up having to, Ryker Helped me make it!
Our Next adventure was coloring.
As you can see Ryker wanted Uncle Jesse to draw a few things on his. After coloring we watched a movie and Ryker was cuddled up to Jesse.

With the sleeping over part Ryker did really well. It was his first time sleeping somewhere overnight without his mom and he was a pro!!!

We had some great times this week and I'm thankful for my family :]

Life is not perfect, but it sure is worth it!

2011-01-24T20:20:00.000-08:00

I know a have not written for a long time so I have a lot to tell!!! First things first the holidays were great! Jesse and I got to spend so much time with our families, and most importantly each other. Right before my Christmas break Jesse and I had a huge blessing come into our lives. JESSE GOT A NEW JOB! His friend Reed put in a good word for him and now he is at a job with better hours, better pay, and of course better for him because it is more in his field. He is a sheet metal fabricator as of right now. As for me I got to take a nice long break from school. During Christmas break I was also able to apply to the radiology program. Chance of me getting in aren't as high because I don't have my bio-med class done, but there is the little glimpse of hope. I shouldn't get my hopes up, but I would love to get in as soon as possible.

Two other amazing things happened. We were blessed with a beautiful niece (Evie) and a handsome nephew (Crew). The only downfall to this is that it makes me a little baby hungry :)!!

Another blessing that we had happened to us is we were able to get a new car for me, and ended up sailing the van in two hours after we posted it on KSL. My new car is a black Saturn Ion 2003. I love it and am so glad I don't have to worry about my car breaking down on me any moment. It was kind of sad to see the van go though. We've bought it when I was in kindergarten and it has a lot of memories! All in all it was defiantly for the better.My post title mentions that life is not perfect, and as we all know that we hate to admit it! This weekend we were on our way to Crew's baby blessing. We walked out side to find that the passenger window of my car had been broken out. We didn't think the person stole anything until later that night i was looking for my backpack when i realized that it was in the passengers seat the night before and that they had indeed stole it. Some of my books were in there so I've had to order new ones, but it could have been worse right? It just makes me sad that people could just do that. They don't really realize how they affect other peoples lives.

Life is good, I love my husband, my family, and the gospel. Those three things make life worth it!!!!

FEAR

2010-11-08T19:18:00.000-08:00

I've been taking a stress management class. Even though I'm getting an A Jesse likes to tell me that I am still getting an F because I am still too stressed all the time. The good thing is I'm improving very much, I know it's going to be a life long struggle for me, but all i can do is try to do better right? Most of you that really know me know that I have been scared of driving since the accident I was in right before I went to high school. I am very proud to say that this has improved much. I've been driving so much and even the freeway doesn't scare me anymore :) but part of my fear came creeping back today. It was raining so much and got me all stressed out thinking that pretty soon I'm going to start having to drive in the snow. UGH driving in the snow is the worst. It scares me. I always just picture me sliding off the road, because I've seen so many cars that do. If you have any suggestions to calm me about this fear I would appreciate it. Tips are welcomed. :) And because I vented to you about my fear I'll be willing to listen about yours!!!

Life thus far... :]

2010-11-05T22:10:00.000-07:00

Can you believe it? I'm updating my blog, and a lot has happened since. I am going to school full time at Weber right now and I'm loving it :) not to mention I get my associates this semester, but I'm actually not going into education anymore. I am going into Radiology to be specific Sonography (ultrasounds) I'm pretty excited!!! Next semester I'm going to take a biomedical core class and after I finish that I get to apply for the program!!!! Jesse's been such a support through this all. Oh ya and married life...well its the best I highly recommend it :)

We finally got our wedding pictures and I'm so excited about them. The ones I posted are jsut a few of them. Another big change is we moved to South Ogden in June, and we are living in a wonderful apartment with a wonderful ward. We really enjoy it. Jesse is doing well at T-mobile and I am loving the ones class at the daycare!!!

We carved pumpkins a week before Halloween with my cousin and her husband, and my friend Jessica and her boyfriend. They turned out really well, and I will post pictures as soon as I get them off of Jesse's phone.Halloween was fun spending it with Jesse. We got to be with all our nieces and nephews, and his brothers and sisters. Jesse's brother and sister-in-law moved from Florida to Salt lake so they are a lot closer and it has been so much fun getting to know Skip and Emma, and their two kids Lily and Eric.

honeymoon, life, and eternal things...

2010-05-01T10:28:00.000-07:00

So after the wedding we made our way down to St. George for our honeymoon. It was so much fun we both loved loved it. We got to go to Zions national park, Brigham young home, and we also had fun just exploring the city, going out to eat, and going to see a movie. Now we are finally settled down and just doing our day to day things, but its so much better to live everyday with the person you love. There is still things to get used to like stealing the blankets from each other every night, but its defiantly worth it. We are excited to visit the temple again. The temple is the most amazing place, and I'm so glad we were able to live our lives so we could be married there. In our sealing we were told to get a calendar and write the day that we would go to the temple each month. I think that is wise counsel that could benefit everyone :]

Thanks again for everyone that supported us...We love you all!

Only 21 days!!!

2010-02-27T23:02:00.000-08:00

Life has been on crazy mode for the last couple of months but I have loved all of it. Jesse and I are getting so excited to be married. It will mean no more late nights taking me home...or no more worrying about being apart. We have been apart for at least 80% of our courtship and let me tell you it has been not been easy. Right now he is in Florida working with his brother, i never thought we'd have to do this again, but God has a plan for us and Jesse is doing it for us. All though we have been apart so much I'm thankful we've both been strong and patient enough to endure :] He is defiantly worth it and I feel so lucky to be marrying such a wonderful guy!!!!

Well I'm Engaged!!!! :]

2009-11-27T22:33:00.000-08:00

Well Everybody!!! It happened!! We are engaged!!! What a good day! So this is how he did it....We were at his Brother's house and he said he wanted to get out of the house. So we drove around and ended up at our favorite park in sunset. We walked around the track and I even scared him (because for some reason he was on edge :p). Half way around the track I told him I wanted to go home because I was freezing and I had to go to the bathroom so bad! He said we could but he wanted to stay a little longer. Well then after we made a loop around we sat down on the bench and there was this random JC penny add. I was like oh someone must have left that but he said can we look at the watches. I said Jess we already looked at it. After me complaining about it he finally opened it to a page that had a picture he had drawn of me and him, and on my hand was a ring. Then he got down on one knee and told me that he wanted to marry me!!! Yes I cried...and Yes I said Yes It was great! He did such a good job with the ring too! I'm so excited to start this new part of our lives :] Love you all!

It has almost stopped snowing

2009-11-10T19:47:00.000-08:00

What I mean by, "it has almost stopped snowing", is my days at snow are numbered. I have one left month left and I'm excited, but sad all at the same time. I decided to take a semster off of school so that hopefully I can get some things taken care of :) and also save up some money for school at Weber. It'll be nice to have a break from school, but I WILL go back in the fall. I'm going to miss the little kids at the day. Today Trevor( a little twin in the daycare) Told me that he is going to marry me when he is taller lol. It made me laugh...don't little kids just make you so happy. Well Jesse is almost done with school. He is doing amazing and is excelling in his custom paint skills :] He is having interviews this week for jobs and I know he is going to do amazing!!! Oh one fun thing is the Friday before Halloween my mom, dad, and sister came up to see me and bring me food ( I desperatley needed it)!!! I loved to see them!!!! Well thats my update :)

We've been apart far to long.

2009-09-20T14:53:00.000-07:00

I finally got to see Jesse! It was way to long, I hadn't seen him in almost two months. When I saw him it was great! We got to hang out a lot this weekend, although I do wish it was a longer weekend for me. Friday we went to a BQ at his friends house. We played a bunch of games and it was super fun! He also opened his birthday present that I got him. Saturday we went shopping for his birthday and out to lunch. We then returned to Jared and Brittany's house to eat dinner, and later on we went Rollerskating at classic skating in Layton. Ha I know it's like grade school all over again, but it was so much fun! I loved spending every minute I had with him I have missed him so much, and am going to when I go back to Snow tonight. Hopefully it won't be to long that we will have to stay like this, we are hoping to be toghether soon!

Milky Falls

2009-09-12T22:17:00.000-07:00

Tonight was so much fun. Me, Shelby, and Russ drove up to Milky falls. It was pitch black (luckly Russ brought a flash light). We hiked a little to get up to the waterfall and what we could see of it was really pretty!!!! I was so scared we were gonna get lost, but we didn't wich is good cause we were clear up in the moutains. On the ride home we were laughing and having a good time, it was a fun time :]

Long week...but here comes the weekend :]

2009-09-11T19:05:00.000-07:00

Ok so my week started off not having a phone. Mine broke and the extra phone I was borrowing, well I forgot the charger. Also I had my first test in courtship and marriage I felt I did pretty good! School all together really just wears ya out!!! Anyone that has been knows what I'm talking about. Work has been going great although today I felt so bad when one of my favorite little boys fell out of a wagon and scraped up his head. I love the kids at the daycare!!! Ha ha two of the older girls on the playground today were kissing a bar pretending like it was there boyfriend...where do they get these ideas? Well anyways it made me laugh a lot. Well I sure miss everyone, and definatly miss Jesse it's been the longest since we've seen each other. :] Hopefully I'll see him soon!!!

I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairyteal

2009-09-02T18:42:00.000-07:00

Its true, I'm not perfect and either is life, but it's definatly a beautiful life. I stuggle with all the stresses of the world, and all the decisions I have to make, the fact that I am away from the people I love the most, but its still a beautiful life. Everyday I look forward to those little moments I have with the kids in the daycare. Little moments with them make everything I'm doing worth it; and then the time will come when I'll have other precious moments like getting married and having kids of my own. I feel blessed to have a part here on earth. The Lord has belssed me with so much.

Things are going...

2009-08-28T23:06:00.000-07:00

School is going well so far. I spend a lot of time on homework so that can be stressful, but I just love my job so much. So many of the kids I've met there I already love. I love when they call me "teacher" it just makes me feel important and I think that being a teacher someday will do the same thing. My roommates are great this year and I'm really glad to live with some of the girls I lived with last year. Human Biology is a but kicker...because my brain just does not comprehend chemistry. I love Courtship and Marriage (the one taught by the school not the institute); my teacher is so funny! I miss the people I love, especially Jesse, and cannot wait to see them!

My Journey Back to Snow!

2009-08-15T17:54:00.000-07:00

So I'm back at Snow its crazy but I already really like my roommates and am glad to see some old ones. I left on friday, I was going to take my car down but I ended up getting in an accident and wasn't able to drive it down. So I'm carless again how fun! I sure already miss my family and miss Jesse so so so so much! Now we aren't just 5 hours away its a stinkin 8 hours, but things are good because hopefully after this year of school we won't have to be apart EVER again! :] that is such a good thought! Here is a picture of us two on our date night we had a few weeks ago!!!!

Scrapbooking!!!!

2009-07-27T20:02:00.000-07:00

Wow I haven't scrapbooked in a long time, but let me tell you I'm addicted now! Today I went to Joanns and got some new stuff because I decided that it would be amazing to do a scrapbook of just Jesse and I. I figure it could come in handy for a wedding too!!! No i'm not engaged :)

Again...

2009-07-27T19:49:00.000-07:00

Little Trace did not feel good, and I felt really bad for him, but it was nice to see my aunt and her kids even if Trace was not his happiest. I also loved being with my grandparents, mom, and sister. We had ice cream that night and we stayed up to 12 so that we could celebrate 19th birthday a little bit. Then that morning we had a very nice breakfast and headed back home. We had my dads family over that day for mothers day and my birthday! Jesse made sure he told me happy birthday a million times :] but I appreciated it! My great roommates also told me happy birthday my best friend Emily even called me I was very happy about that she is such a sweetheart.

Oh I forgot to put this at the first but I had a picnic with Jillian Kamilla and Emily last week it was really fun and then that night Mia, Mauire, Jessica, and Brittany (my best friends from high school) took me out to dinner at Bajo!!! It was good!!!!!

Then yesterday Jesses mom, sister-in-law and sister took me out to eat for my birthday!!! It was so sweet of them and I love them all.

Also Jesse and I have been running every night starting this monday and it's kinda a competition so it has been fun! But the most exciting thing of all is I get to go see him this Friday!!! My grandma and grandpa are taking me up there because they are going to colorado to visit my uncle and his family!!!!

Life is so great and I'm enjoying every minute of my summer. I've been also enjoying reading books, and especially the ensign and my scriptures. If you haven't got the new ensign with the talks from conference in it yet I highly recommend doing so!!!! Well I love you all but I'm going to go to bed!!!!

Job Search...etc

2009-05-06T20:28:00.000-07:00

Well I'm back home and it's funny cause I've been busy ever since I got here. The monday I was back home I went out searching for jobs, and that night Kiddie academy (a daycare) called me and I had an interview the next day! :] I'm excited and I hope I get the job. Also I've been cleaning a lot and I babysat the cutest little boy today!

I Made It!!!!!!

2009-05-01T19:10:00.000-07:00

Wow my first year of college went by so fast just like Jesse said it would. It's been such a great experience and I learned to love snow a lot, ESPECIALLY my roommates. I'm for sure going to miss them. This finals week was a struggle for me I ended up really sick the whole week but I some how managed to get through it and I was excited to find out I got an A in math. I thought for sure i would fail it. Its good to be home although if jesse was here it'd be 100 times better, but i'm going to start looking for a job and hopefully get this summer started :) it will be great!

Earth Has No Sorrow That Heaven Cannot Remove

2009-04-18T19:54:00.000-07:00

Tonight I went to our stake conference session. It was amazing!!!! One of the main things that stuck out to me was the song that a girl named Annie sang...the words sang were "Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot remove." What an amazing phrase, whatever any of us are going through at this time heavens helping hands can remove our burdens and give us hope! At the end of this meeting we sang testimony and the words "my eyes are wet, my heart is full" explained how I felt through this meeting. I'm so happy I have to gospel!

pityriasis lichenoides

2009-04-14T19:50:00.000-07:00

Well I found out those bumps on my arms are called pityriasis lichenoides, it is a rare autoimmune disorder. Which is partly a cause to me being so tired and feeling sick. When my mom called me and told me what it was I was so happy because 9 months with no answers to my questions finally ended!!! They are going to treat me and all will be well!

The Good Stuff!

2009-04-03T20:23:00.000-07:00

So this past weekend I got to see Jesse after 6 weeks! It was the best weekend I had in a long time. The first night we went out to eat at Texas Roadhouse with his mom it was way fun, and nice to see his mom, Jesse even spilled water on me. After we got done doing that we watched 007 with my mom (Jesse picked it out of course). Then the next day we went to an awesome car show in Sandy. Even though I don't usually like car shows I really enjoyed this one especially just to spend time with Jesse, and it made me happy that he was able to do something he loves. Later that night we went to Applebee's with my mom and dad. Sunday he drove me back to Ephraim we played with my roommates for a while and then we slept over at Jillian's Grandmas house (yes on opposite sides of the house). It was AMAZING!!!!!!! I LOVE HIM!

Life is good...so much to be thankful for!

2009-03-22T20:41:00.001-07:00

So when I was on spring break I got to go down to the Draper temple open house! It was amazing and so beautiful. My very favorite part was the sealing room it was beautiful, and I'd have to admit the bride's dressing room was one of my favorites :] . It was such an awesome experience to go in and see it and there was a strong spirit even though it had not yet been dedicated. All spring break I got to spend time with my family and it was just so amazing! Now I'm back and school and the weather has been AWESOME lately! So this weekend my roommates decided to go layout on her grandma's porch, well lets just say I'm no longer white...just bright pink! Also I got to go to the temple dedication today at my stake center it was so uplifting. Not only have I been so happy about the weather and the temple FRIDAY I GET TO SEE JESSE :] it's been a month and a half and one week CRAZY, but I'm so excited to finally see him and spend some time with him it will be great!!!!

The Temple

2009-03-11T13:59:00.000-07:00

So I had the chance of going to the ogden temple today with my grandma and cousin. It was a lot of fun and I was so glad to be able to be in the temple and feel the spirit. I got to do 20 baptisms so it was awesome and the temple workers are always so sweet. Then after that we went and ate in the cafeteria, and then we went to farrs to get some ice cream! It was Yummy! Life is good! Still on spring break and although i have some homework I just can't get myself to do it I definatly was burned out from school but I'll go back ready to take on all the work! Ya need a break every once in a while!

Spring Break

2009-03-08T19:40:00.000-07:00

Boy am I glad to finally be on spring break! It is so nice to be able to relax! I don't have much planned, which could get really boring, but i will figure something out! I have a yucky denist appointment tomorrow. The one thing I am way excited about is on Wed. I am going to go to the Ogden Temple and doing baptisms for the dead with my cousin, and then on Thurs. i get to go to the Draper Temple Open house! :] I'm thinking both experiences will be very spirtual! Jesse is doing awesome, in school and everything! He helps me out more then he knows, and I don't think I could ask for a better boyfriend then him! Of course he is the best but we need to keep that on the down low in case someone tries to snatch him from me he he :] his family moved this weekend but they are closer to me now, so I cannot wait to go visit them! Kinsey, one of my best friends, got engaged so I am way excited for her! I'm doing great and life is good :]

Allred

2009-02-27T08:26:00.000-08:00

So Last Friday we (the service and activity commitee) put on a HUGE activity! We had all you could eat pizza and then Allred came and performed! For those of you that don't know Allred you should definatly look into him if you like acuostic, he was so amazing live!!!!! I got one of cd's and he signed it for me! I was SO excited!

This past week has been way crazy with midterms but I think I got everything undercontrol and I feel a lot better about everything now, because its over!!!!! :] SPRING BREAK NEXT WEEK :]

My Valentines Weekend!

2009-02-18T17:11:00.000-08:00

Jesse and I finally got to see each other after a month and a half :] The first night he came over(Friday) to my house and saw me we watched Jurassic Park (I know weird), but I was just glad to see him. It was funny because the first thing he said to me was "WOW YOU LOST WEIGHT" i thought he did to, but little does he know I didn't loose any weight. The next day (Valentines Day) we went to his brothers house and I saw his neice and nephew, they have grown so much and are even more cute, i missed them a ton! I also got to see his sister-in-law brittany, his brother, and his other sister and her little boy! I was so happy!!! Later that night we got all dressed up and went to Crystal and Reeds house. The boys made us dinner! After dinner Jesse and I left and he blind folded me and took me to our first date (Miniture golfing at the Family Fun Center) It was a great night and I was really glad I got to see jesse. Its kinda weird though looking back on it, it almost feels like a dream because it was so short! I can't wait to see him again :]

Fireproof...

2009-02-01T13:33:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!!! I was so happy this weekend I got to come home and see my family for a few days, but I'd have to say it was really weird with out Jesse here :( He is doing great in school and we can't wait tell valentines day so we can see each other! We've been dating almost 10 months now I'd say that was pretty good especially for how long we've spent apart. I think if we can do what we are doing now, we can do anything. This weekend my mom and I watched a show called Fireproof, if you haven't seen it I HIGHLY recommend it. Its about a husband and wife that almost get a divorce, but the husband finds what true love is and everything changes. I loved it because it was so realistic...life is not always easy like other love story's say it is, it has its challenges. Not only that but it shows how god is an the key to having a happy marriage. It was amazing and me and my mom had a few good tears :] Well I'm a little scared to go back to school because i know how busy I'm gonna be but hopefully it'll just make time go by faster!!! Love you all!

Sorry Guys...

2009-01-21T18:22:00.000-08:00

After a long (one month) Christmas break I am back at Snow, but this time I had to leave my laptop home because its broken :( So that is why I have not kept up on my blog. Well Here is the update. Jesse is now in Wyoming and he is doing AMAZING in school, I really am so proud of him. This semester I am taking a lot of great classes. I am taking a class called guidance of young children and it requires me to go to the daycare two hours each week, it is something I always look forward to. I am also taking a great institute class called "Preparing For an Eternal Marriage". I really think everyone that is not yet married should take it, I've learned so much from it. My friend Jessica is getting married on the 29th and my cousin just got engaged I'm excited for the both of them. I'm just hanging in there and enjoying life! I love you all!

My Diagnosis...

2008-11-26T20:34:00.000-08:00

Today I called the doctors. They finally got the resutls in and we were all pretty much shocked at the diagnosis (even the doctor). It's Eczema. I'm very happy that it is something not serious :]

I'm Going Home... :]

2008-11-24T19:33:00.000-08:00

I am SO excited to finally see my family! I miss them so much! I'm also excited to see jesse, and excited to see one of my best friends get married to the person she loves. IT WILL BE AN AMAZING WEEKEND. :]

My Apt...

2008-11-20T05:47:00.000-08:00

Well Yesterday I went to the Dr. and They are stumped. The Antibotics didn't work, and neither did the creams so they biopsied one of the bumps! It was pretty Cool I got some stiches. Well I miss my family a lot and CAN'T wait to go home for Thanksgiving. After Thanksgiving we have one more week of school and then we don't go back tell January 6th It'll be nice.

An Interesting Weekend...

2008-11-16T11:06:00.000-08:00

Well Jesse came here Wed. :] Once again with flowers! It was so sweet and I was so excited to see him! I feel bad how the weekend went but he was very very patient. We did really fun things we watched some movies. Went out to dinner and my favorite part just being together and being able to talk about everything. :] The only bad thing is I was feeling sick the whole weekend. Friday I got a really high fever and we went to the emergency room in Gunnison about 30 min away, to make sure everything was ok. It was weird we went in because of my fever but all they talked about was the bumps on my arms. They gave me some med. and hopefully it will get better. Jesse left saturday afternoon and I've missed Him every since! I love him tons and I thank him for everything he does for me!

My Major...

2008-11-11T18:05:00.000-08:00

Well I am super excited! After going back and forth between nursing, undeclared, and teaching I finally made a decision. I am going to major in child care management! I am so excited to work with preschool aged children, I already know I am going to love it. I'm in human development class right now and not only do I love that class I love the chance it gives me to go to the daycare lab here at Snow. The kids are AMAZING! Well some more good news :] JESSE IS COMING TOMORROW! I am so excited to see him its been a month since I've last seen him, and thats the longest we have gone without seeing each other. He'll come Wed and he will stay tell Sat. He is going to sleep at my roommates grandmas house in Manti! Tomorrow I have a Dr. Appt. I'm kinda nervous because I've had these wierd UGLY bumps on my arms for about 2 months now! So hopefully the Dr. will be able to figure out what it is.

New Things Ahead...

2008-11-08T10:53:00.000-08:00

Well.. Here is the news! Jesse is most likely leaving January 6th to Wyoming to go to one of the best trade schools for automtive :] I'm really excited for him. As for me I'll finish my first year of school, and maybe even come back for the first semester next year. He'll come back around December 18th, and we'll see how things go for us then! It will be an interesting hard journey, but I'm willing to try it out!

Our Visit

2008-10-17T09:38:00.000-07:00

One day I was in my apartment and Jesse had called me and Told me that he was at a walmart but little did I know he was at ephraim walmart with roses waiting to suprise me. When he walked in my apartment door I couldn't help but yell "WHAT THE HECK" but I was so happy!!!! That is defiantly one of my favorite memories. During that weekend we also got to go to the Manti Temple and take pictures it was beautiful!
