One Silly Little Month

In one silly  little month I will take my very last final and be finished with my sophomore year of college...YIKES!
How can it be just one month away? Part of me cant wait until it is one month from today. I can be carefree, enjoying the sunshine and summertime! I can't wait for warm weather and no school and adventures all the time. Baseball games and cookouts and swimming and basketball in the driveway with the little brothers. It's going to be grand!

Another part of me though wishes time would stand still.
And not move at all...let's just stay right here for forever and a day.

I have been blessed with some pretty incredible people in my life, it's overwhelming sometimes. I look around me sometimes and wonder how I got lucky enough to have such wonderful people in my life!  In one silly little month comes a lot of very hard goodbyes.
One silly little month brings hard final exams, projects, presentations, and packing packing and more packing.
It brings moving away from the people and the town that I have grown to love more fully this year. It means saying goodbye...and we all know how I feel about saying goodbye.

In one silly little month so much can happen. 
Camping trips, concerts, family visits, General Conference, tests galore, graduations, road trips, many late nights at the LIB, endless laughter, and memories made that I wouldn't trade for anything in the world.

One silly little month separates me from the way things are now and the way things will be when everything changes.

One silly little month.

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. ...
