On A Kick!

 So I am on this kick lately where all I want to do is have new adventures and try new things! I want to do everything, see everything, experience everything there is! So be prepared for more blog posts about new things I try...it's sort of my new favorite thing! I went tanning in a tanning bed for the first time this week...I wasn't really a fan but it was free so that's cool! Last weekend I went "real sledding" for the first time. I say that because I have been sledding down my front yard in Texas but I hardly think that counts for anything. But now I can say that I  HAVE OFFICIALLY GONE SLEDDING! Thank you Old Main Hill, you were so kind to help me cross this one off my list! PLUS I just have some great friends that came with me. Check it out!






I think one of the best parts for me was that I got to share the experience with this wonderful girl right here! In a few days she will start one of the most amazing journey's of her life as she enters the MTC to be a Missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It was her last time sledding for a while and my very first and we had such a blast together!


ALSO! My roommate and I decided to go play some racquetball last night! It was a blast! Except I had never played before and she led me to believe that she knew how to play...except she didn't really. So we spent an hour just hitting the ball against the wall, having a blast! I loved it! I am so sore today though (too many trick shots;)) but it was so worth it! I want to actually learn the rules though so maybes someday I can actually play! 




We kind of like taking picture:)

And lastly I just have to add this because I love it way too much not to talk about! So my cousin's are probably some of the greatest people I know! To say that I adore them would be a complete understatement! They are amazing and I look up to them SO much more then they could ever know or understand! WELL last month they adopted the CUTEST little boy I have ever seen! Seriously! He is so precious! When I came back from Christmas break I was lucky enough to catch them while they were still in Utah visiting family with their new little guy! This is when Brittni and I met him for the first time and let me just say, my heart melted! Needless to say this little one has me and a whole lot of others wrapped around his tiny little fingers!:)

I Resolve To Continue

This is the time of year when we evaluate our lives. We look at the last 364 days and ponder on our struggles and our triumphs. We look at the person we have become over the last 12 months and we plan to do better in the coming 12. This is the time of year we are dedicated to making a change, and as I sit here thinking back to this time exactly 365 days ago, I am astounded at how far I have come. Almost ashamed of the person I was then and truly proud of the person I am now. For one of the first times in my life I can say that I can see myself becoming the person I want to become. In the last year I have felt sorrow and defeat and loneliness. I have faced struggles and heartache and frustrations. But I have also felt peace. I have felt joy and happiness and love. I set goals and I achieved them. I have had experiences that have taught me so many valuable lessons, and I have met people who have changed me forever. And I am so grateful. And so as we finish out this awfully beautiful year...

How True This Is

Why I Drove to Washington By Myself

Okay first things first....I went to WA to see my friend Liz. Look how cute she is! She got a grown up job and moved to the *cutest* little town in WA and I miss her, so I took a few days for myself and went on a trip to see her. Secondly, I want it to be known that I DID invite a friend to come with me. I have a good friend who I would have loved to have join me on the trip, but when he couldn't come I was sad but didn't bat an eye. Here are the reasons that I invited him: He is excellent company. He has a great taste in music. He is friends with Liz as well. I thought it would be fun if he came. The end that is all. I didn't invite him to make the trip cheaper, to help drive, or to make me feel safer. It would have been fun if he could have come, but either way I was going to go. I drove to Washington by myself because I could. Because I am saying YES. Because I am done waiting for "someday".  Someday when I have more money, or...
