Star Stickers!

Today was the last day of classes. I just have a week of tests and a long day of driving that separate me from home and summer and family and friends. And I am so freaking excited haha! I literally cannot wait! But there are also some things I am going to miss. Logan is beautiful! I absolutely love it. I will miss the mountains and the cool air and all the trees. I will miss having the temple 3 blocks away, and seeing it every single day from up on campus. Such a blessing. And tonight especially I am feeling a little sadness at the loss of my star stickers. When I moved in 9 months ago I realized that very first night that some one who had lived in my room previously had put up a star sticker galaxy on my ceiling. And at first I was a little bugged by it. But I cant tell you the number of nights I have laid awake staring at those star stickers thinking about everything under the sun. They have been a comfort and a confidant for the last year and I have truly grown to love them. I will miss my star stickers. Ha I sound like I am five. But each night as I lay in bed I watch them till they fade and I am reminded of so many beautiful things. So secret previous tenant of apt. 3 room A, I thank you. Your stickers have become pretty dang special to me. And to whoever gets this room in the future....enjoy!:)

Touched By The Spirit

My cousin Cade had his Missionary Farewell yesterday and I feel so blessed to have been able to attend. First off, he is amazing. He is one of the funniest people I know and he is smart and a musical genius. He is simply his own person and there are endless characteristics/qualities that he possess that I would love to develop in myself. So I mean it is easy to say that I love the kid to death. But he spoke in sacrament meeting and the spirit that he brought was truly inspiring, and stronger than anything I have felt in a long time. It touched my heart. And I knew that he was called of God to serve, that he is worthy to serve, and that he has a testimony of the gospel and our Savior, Jesus Christ. It was such an incredible experience. When he concluded he played an original arrangement of Be Still My Soul on the piano and again the spirit was overwhelming. That is my favorite hymn, and it brings me so much comfort which I coincidentally really needed at that moment. Reminding ...

16 Things I Learned In 2016

Here it is. I cant believe that it is already New Year's Eve. This year has gone so fast and so slow. It has been happy and hard and different than I ever imagined it would be. This time last year, I was at my parent's house in Texas. So much has changed since I rung in the new year with little brothers and 60 degree weather, and as I have spent the day with just two cute puppies and my thoughts I have been overwhelmed with all that the last year has given me. So here it is, in no particular order...16 things that I learned in 2016. 16. Travel Often. Across the ocean or just a few hours away, take the time to see new places. It is ALWAYS worth it. 15. It's okay to say no. Sometimes, you can only give how much your heart will allow. You must take care of yourself before you can take care of others. I learned this through my job, but it is a lesson that I have needed to apply to my entire life for a very long time. ...

Just A Friendly Reminder:)

It's nothing new. We've all heard it before. "You cant judge a book by its cover" and "be careful what you say, everyone is fighting their own battles, and we don't know what others are facing..." and many more quotes and saying that tell us that everyone is going through something and we don't know, so we cant judge, we cant take offense, because we don't know what they may be going through. And what may be easy to you may be a challenge for them and vice versa so we cannot look down on anyone for what they are going through. Now this makes perfect sense to me because I know I certainly have trials and I have met some people in my life that have had their fair share of struggles. It's just something that I have always understood, however sometimes it isn't always the first thing on my mind, and because of that, I got my reminder this week. I have been feeling really upset about the way someone very very important to me has been ignoring...
