Easter and Ect.

I love college!!! I'm so happy to be back in Rexburg...Granted the weather has thrown a few 

hurdles but thats okay at least most of the time I'll have to wear a light jacket. 

All of my classes are great! I thought I was crazy for doing 16 credits but its proved to be a good thing so far.

I really like being busy. I've picked up waking at 

6:45 AM. Either to leave for an early class or to go for a run. It

has really made the difference with how I feel about my thyroid issues. (Plus side I've lost some 

unwanted weight). I great roommates this semester(I'll introduce them later)!

 The things I find in Brolium's!

I'm even swimming. I look so legit with my gear! hehe

So for Easter my roommates wanted to color eggs. And that's exactly 

what we did at midnight on Saturday.  Needles to say we had so much fun! They are hilarious and super 

fun girls! Our imagination for the eggs were awesome!!

 Briana and Alex

 Tracey and Alba

 Lauren and me

 All of our handy work!! :)

Happy Easter Everybody!!

6 days but who's counting?

I see the tunnel in the light! It's almost time for me to go back to school and to embark 

on a new adventure in life. Taking on 16 credits and finding a job to bring in a 

little income...Sounds like fun right? 

There are going to be things that I miss that's certain. 

Well I'm certianly not going to miss the random snow storms throughout the month of April.

Thank you El Nina for providing my discomfort.

Woke up to this and it melted!

Came home to this after a long day of work and it was somewhat

magical! :)

It was still snowing hence the reflection of the light

on the snow...

But I will miss...

My mom and her healthy good cooking. Eating healthy at school can get expensive

but I know its possible. My mom was constantly giving me advice,

unconditional love, and full belly. She taught me to

take care of myself health wise and was a constant best friend. I

want to be just like her when I grow up! She's an amazing woman!!!!

I'm going to miss my dog, Phoebe...We've become good buds these past

months and she's my cuddle buddy. There were days where 

I was so tired(from my thyroid) I would fall asleep with her on a the 

recliner. She would keep me warmer and made me happy!

I'm going to miss my dad's sound advice.  He was a constant reminder

that I can be happy and I can take care of my self and control

my spending :). He's such great man and...I like every little girl

I want to marry someone like my dad! <3

I'm going to miss the good times that I had in singles ward! I'm going to miss my

awesome Bishop! He truly made feel special! I'm going to miss the rest of the 

bishopric and their wives! They are such wonderful people and made me feel 

welcome and loved.  Yes for a while things gotten shaken up but that can't stop the goodness of the

singles ward! I'm going to miss my institute buddy Kevin Hedges! 

What a great person. He he's turly has a special spirit about him. and you can't help but smile

when your with him!

I'm going to miss my siblings! I've had so much fun with them...going to conference 

and watching movies! I'm so grateful that they do look up to me and 

that they are my best friends despite our disputes. They are wonderful!!!

I'm going to miss home and I'm glad that its always there for me to come home. 

I have felt so safe and taken care of. This is where I grew up...This is where I learned 

to become a good person. This is where I learned the gospel. This is where I turn to 

when I feel lost or to feel love. This is my home and it goes where ever

my family goes!

A Good Day

I took a little trip today to Rexburg.

I was looking for a job next semester...Needless to say college towns 

stink when looking for job.

I took my resume to every place imaginable close to La Jolla!

I hope the Campus Employment Office gives me better luck.

I also got to see one of my favorite people in the world!

SHARLA!

I got to spend several hours with her because job hunting went faster than I 

thought! Then once Sharla had to go to class I went to IF(Idaho Falls) to do 

some little shopping.

Well I got lost looking for the Mall and TJ Maxx and I got lost trying to leave.

Needless to say I started to freak! After talking to my dad, I stopped 

at a Gas Station and got directions. So if your on Sunny Side

Street heading west you'll surely find the interstate. 

Other than that I got some great stuff just for a little over $30. YAY!

I've decided I hate driving by myself because it get boring. It's so boring

I start making up songs or start making up stories. 

 I was really tired and had my camera out at the rest stop...

I'm definitely a talker and need someone to talk to for 2 and 1/2 hours!

Thank Goodness for CDs to sing a long to!

I made it home and thought today was a good day!

What an amazing weekend... :D

This weekend was fantastic.  I got to work as a server all of Saturday and did great in tips!

(I love my job!) The only downside was I didn't get to watch General Conference with the family...That's okay the problem was easily fixed with downloading the podcasts today 

so I can listen to them and even listen to the Priesthood session(which is just fantastic, 

my gratitude grows for the priesthood when i listen to that particular session). 

Today I got to go to the Afternoon session of Conference with my family!

 Almost in SLC

 

Isn't it gorgeous!

 I was really proud of the seats Lauren and I were able to secure! Best seats we have ever gotten.

 25,000 people gathering together for one purpouse. To here our Prophets speak!

I really don't like this picture of me but my sisters look absolutely gorgeous so I had to share!

 

I love the story behind this particular "Holiness To The Lord Sign". 

Click here for a part of the story. (It's 7th paragraph) 

 What an Iconic Temple! An Ensign!

I love going! It's such a blessing to have that building where so many people can go and be in the presence of our General Authorities and our living Prophet! I Also go to see my best friend Josi! 

 For awhile I thought I wasn't going to be able to see her until harvest but we actually 

got to meetup at the Joesph Smith Memorial Building! I was so glad to get a 

hug from her finally! I love  our talks on Tuesdays and I've felt like I haven't talked 

to her in 3 weeks...which is how long I haven't talked to her :).  

Today was one of those days where I felt so blessed. I was able

be with my family and I listen the Prophet's voice! We lived in a blessed time where we have a

living Prophet today and Heavenly Father Speaks through all of his servants. 

I know this to be true!

Cheap and Cheep

So...

Today has been one of my best days. Work was great...Can I say that I love my job at the Uppercrust! I really love working there. Boss and co-workers are so nice...its definitely a plus! Then I went to Walmart to get some errands for my mom and to get Tangled for my brother. I was surprised to see that the DVD was only $15.95.  I get to the register and the lady tells me she sold this movie for $10 to somebody else and asked if I wanted the same price! "Heck yes I do. Can I get another one to?" So I got one for my family and one for me to take to school!

My mom also asked me to go pick up 2 Americana chicks (we're rebuilding our flock).  She kept changing her mind on how many she wanted. I finally told her I would buy her 2 more for her Mother's Day Present because I know how much my mom loves her chickens. Plus I need a steady supply of eggs for when I go to school.  So I headed to CAL-Ranch to pick up those chicks. They are so darn cute. They are so funny to watch as well. They do the silliest things! I love my country life!

All the new chicks we have gotten in the past week! So darn cute!

 So this little girl is one of the new chicks! She's so fluffy I'm going to die! And she likes to pose too! Her fluff covers up her eyes.

Things I love making!!

I am so very grateful for the creative flare my Heavenly Father has given me. I love doing things with my hands and I'm ready to share it with everyone! I'll post more pictures!!

The Chloe Flower and Headband! Created the flower pattern myself! Only the button is sewed onto the headband so you can change the flower to your outfit.  $10 dollars a piece( Includes 2 flowers and headband). Additional flowers are $2.50.

Ear-warmer ! Created the pattern myself.  Its almost like the fun knitted ones.  Its made of fleece and I'm planning on making it with different flowers and materials. $12.50.

The Lucy Flower.  Right now price will be $6. I'm working on more colors and putting them on headbands too!

 Contact me on facebook or email me through blogger! Even Leave a comment!

Just a little update...

So I've felt like I've needed to do another update again.  It remarkable how life can change so quickly and how time can fly. So I'm down with only two more months until I can go back to school.  Granted I think I'm going to have a hard time readjusting because my parents have taken such great care of me.

I've gotten another job at the Upper Crust! I really love this job.  All my fellow co-workers are really nice and ready to help me. My boss is also pretty great.  Its a really fun atmosphere and I'm learning to come out of my comfort zone.

For Valentines I got myself "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Yes because I didn't not have a significant other and was feeling Singles Awareness very strongly, I got myself something.  I absolutely love Audrey Hepburn.  She is my favorite actress of all times. Plus I'm a nut for old movies.  I really love this movie because I have often felt the insecurities of Holly Golightly. I get the mean red's very often. Hahaha. Goes to show how very human I am. 

I've really missed my roommate Sharla.  I could always complain to her and we had such great times together.  We never had drama between us and we would try to avoid the drama as well.  She's such an amazing and beautiful girl! She is definitely a great friend! Love her to death!

I've also done some neat and creative  projects and I'll get some pictures taken ASAP! Thanks for reading my insights and happenings. And to end here is a quote from Elder F. Enzio Busche," If someone hurts you so much that your feelings seem to choke you, forgive and you will be free again." That is very true and something I had to go through today! Keep smiling everybody it's a beautiful world!! :)
