Two more weeks till the Pageant~!! Yay! I am so excited-but a bit nervous, of course. Preparation is going well, although I still have a lot to work on. I am so grateful for everyone that has helped me and given me encouragement throughout the whole process!! Last night, while I was working, (I work at the Lindon Care Center for people with disabilities) and I was just really tired and thinking that I was so sick of all the irresponsible staff that work there and how it can be unprofessional a lot of the time and that I just wanted a new job, despite how much I love the residents...and I was walking down the hallway and instead of hearing the usual yelling, I heard the Hymn "The Spirit of God" blaring from one of the rooms. I was so shocked but drawn to that immediately and humbled. Two of my friends that live there were in the room singing this with all their hearts! They are just a huge example to me and help me be positive and look at the bright side of life! I actually love my job a lot! People that have disabilities are already perfect and their here for us! I believe that with all my heart and I know that I was meant to have a job there so they can help me!
Church was awesome today too!! My mom bore her testimony with me-I love it when she does! Our lesson was on the Atonement and that is one of my favorite things to do.
I advise everyone to follow the speed limit and don't speed!! Haha because I was just fortunate enough to get a speeding ticket 2 weeks ago for going just 10 miles over the speed limit on the freeway! I was prettty mad but it's fine now~ the reason why I said I advise you not to get a ticket is because now i'm stuck doing lame traffic school online! It's so dumb and it requires you to take 3 hours so it;s incredably boring, haha, oh well, i guess this is my consequence, hah.
My family is doing well-My grandma and Aunt June are in Hawaii!! They're so lucky! Anyway, this is probably the most boring entry ever, but that's what's going on in my life! :) I love you all!!

(Thank you Suzy, my wonderful, fabulous, beautiful sister AND hostess!! ;) )

Easter!!




Happy Easter!! This week we've been so lucky to have my grandparents and John, Haley, and Afton visiting with us. Gpa and Gma came to visit on their way to my aunt Lyla's house and John is on spring break at SUU. It was such a beautiful day outside that we had to take some family pictures:) I love this picture! I especially love how my dad is holding Nike, our cat! That was totally his idea-probably the only time you'll ever see him showing that much love to her! Ha! Happy Easter!

It was also Natalies Birthday!!! She had the brilliant idea to get fruit tarts intstead of cake this year! They were divine! Happy 29th Natalie! Love ya!
