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!:)

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 ...

The Best Is Yet To Come

I absolutely love this quote! I think I have even talked about it before but ohh well. I am so grateful for my life and the people who are in it! I am grateful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ and for a loving Father in Heaven. I will write more later because I don't have much time before conference starts again, but I cant get over how incredibly blessed I am! The best certainly is yet to come!

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. ...
