June/ July Update

WOW the last couple months have really FLOWN by!!! Lots and LOTS have happened... My cousin Tanner came home from his mission :) so we ran down to SLC for that. I have been busy working like mad! Fireworks came before I knew it and was gone in a flash! I got in a car wreck and ruined my car for good... So I am temporarily carless until I can save up enough money for a good little ride. And I discovered I LOVE demolition Derbys. :) Although they are soo white trash I LOVE them, and hope to someday be in one. I have been gearing up for school, and am extremely stressed with money. I am streched already, and now I have to come up with tuition money, rent, utilities, and save for a car all in one. Oh what its like to be a "GROWN UP"- haha Why can't things in life just come easier for me or my family? I just don't get it.... BUT on the bright side of all my negativity I have signed up for an institute class, which I haven't been able to attend because I have been gone. I went yesterday and it was a eye opener.

I have so much to be grateful for. I have an AMAZING family who loves me and are all so willing to help me out at anytime anywhere. I am so grateful for my parents and teaching me how important work, cleanliness, and education is. I am so grateful for having a roof over my head and a very stable job. I have more friends than I realize... and I am not the only one who has struggles. I am so grateful for my life. I have the opportunity to attend the temple, its only a block away which makes it even better :). Last but not least I am soo grateful to have my big sister and brother here with me. When I get home sick they are just a few minutes away and are always giving me advise and boosting me up. Thanks so much Jess and Jas! I LOVE YOU ALL!!

WoRk FuN

So this last week was CRAzy at work... Macey won a drawing and got a free back pack which was WICKED cool!!! People were also just wanting to have babies like mad, so it was just busy!! I thought I would catch some of our craziness on camera-- along with being way busy my dear friend Amanda got a new job and left us :( we were all very sad she was leaving but very happy for her! She will love her new job and be so good at it!! Other than work life is good!! I am LOVING my new ward- and meeting lots of new friends! We also got new roomates and we all get along pretty well also! It should be a good summer! YAY! :) A couple of weeks ago I also had the opportunity to go watch my BEAUTIFUL little sister's dance recital with Jess and Kayson. She had a big part, they did the production ANNIE and she played Grace ( Daddy Warbuck's right hand and sweetheart). She did soo good I was so proud of her!! Kayson sat through the entire 4 hour show, he was sooo good!! It was alot of fun, and a good chance to go home for a day!
"Grace" Isn't she BEAUTIFUL?!?!
We will miss her!!

The GREAT wall :)

So sunday morning around 8 we were waken to the sound of our doorbell just ringing like crazy! As I stumbled down stairs to see who on earth was trying to wake us I heard people running up and down the apartment stairs screaming as they went..... When I opened our door our neighbor said " QUICK THE WALL COLLAPSED!!!!!! WE NEED TO MOVE OUR CARS BEFORE THEY FALL IN!!!!" So naturally we ran to the balcony so we could see what was happening and this is what we saw.....
It turns out the wall separating our parking lot from the canal just collapsed into the canal..... and it took half our parking lot with it.....Here are the cars that got splashed from the canal water and other debrie....Luckily no one got hurt, and we got all the cars moved safely before anything bad could happen to them! This was a unique thing to see.... it was the highlight of our morning!!! :)

I CLEANED THE SINK :)

So it has been a while since I last posted so I thought it was about time... It has been a crazy, busy, last couple weeks! School is getting old, and I am sooo excited for summer to come!! So last night some friends and I took a much needed break from homework, school, and work and went to good ol' Angies here in Logan. As some of you may not know Angies is one of us Aggies favorite places to eat... but most of all to CLEAN THE SINK!! You can't go to USU and NOT clean the sink! Well since I hadn't yet I thought it would be fun! About a gallon of ice cream, oreos, reeses, bannans, strawberrys, carmel topping, fudge topping, and even Whip cream later WE DID IT!! IT was a blast!! So word of advice to anyone who wants to clean the sink, take ALOT of people-- or you will get WAY sick!! So it tuned out to be a good day, and a fun way to kick off my summer, the end :)

THE SINK!

General Conference


I was so very blessed and grateful to be able to go to General Conference this last weekend for the very first time. It was an amazing experience! Thanks to my AWESOME Big brother and his AMAZING wife Emily, I was able to snatch up a couple tickets. I think we take General Conference for granted sometimes. There is so much more than just being able to have a legit excuse to not go to church. We are so blessed to be able to hear from our church leaders, and especially our dear Prophet, and the guidance they give. I have to say that actually going to General Conference versus just watching it on television are entirely different things! There is just something about being in a room with 21,000 people--- and having complete reverence when the Prophet walks in. It is the most tremendous feeling- words cannot describe. I have never been in the same building as a Prophet, so it was a new experience for me.



As for the Building itself, it was extraordinary! I cannot get over how it is built! We sat in the balcony so we could overlook the entire audience, I was in awe when we walked in! Another thing I had never seen, was the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. I know they sound the same as they do on T.V. but in real life, and the setting it was just AWESOME!




Although Conference was an eye opener, I have to say the best part of the day was that it was Easter. I love this day- it was my first one away from my family, which was really weird, but none the less it was a good day. President Monson really emphasized on service- the biggest thing I learned this Easter. Our Savior served us by atoning for our sins, and dying for us. Although we could never repay a debt such as that one- we can do it in different ways. I am so thankful for my parents who are ALWAYS serving us kids, and for teaching us the true meaning of Easter. So in all it was a testimony building experience for me. Thanks again Em and Jas- LOVE YOU GUYS! I just posted some pictures of the amazing Conference Center also because I am so intrigued with it!

Catching Up.....

WOW its been awhile since I have updated my blog... So I think it is about time I do so-- SCHOOL is kicking my butt! I have taken on a full load (12 Credits) and the homework/ readings seem endless! Since I took a break last semester it seems I am having to learn how to study all over again!! But I am none the less loving every second of it! I have had the opportunity to meet many new people, that is truly the best part about college! Besides school I am also trying to work at least 3 days a week at the hospital so its been pretty busy! Here are some pictures that I decided to add last minute! Enjoy!! :)
