Such A Stellar Day!

Okay listen.
My life has been pretty crazy these last few weeky-weeks! I am exhausted constantly, and I feel like I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut clean off! Between packing and moving and unpacking and school and work and homework times a trillion (yes I really do have homework already...I told you crazy!) things have been less than relaxing the last few weeks.
My new roommates are all super nice, however I feel like such a bum because most of the time I just do homework instead of being able to play and get to know them better! Even yesterday when we didn't have school our plans got foiled when it decided to rain on us. Curses!
WELL today after class one of my neighbors (and good friend) finally was able to go up the canyon a ways for rock climbing! He's pretty much an expert and has been wanting us to go for a while now, and finally we were able to go! And let me tell you, it was great! I got to meet some new people, get closer to people I already knew, and try new things (which I love!) I attempted 2 different climbs, one I completed and the other I got half way up! It doesn't sound that cool but trust me, it was super hard and I felt pretty accomplished at the end of the day. And I loved it! I had so much fun and I would love love love to go again and get better at it!
After that we just got some food and went home. I met my roommate's dad and he was super nice, and then I got cleaned up and ready for bed.
I went back to my neighbor's house and talked with another one of the guys next door, another great friend of mine. I wasn't really expecting anything, but I certainly wasn't expecting us to talk for as long as we did. It was great. We talked about anything and everything, and can I just say, I am so stinkin' grateful for this kid! I seriously would do anything for him and I hope he knows that! I missed him over the summer and it was so good to finally feel like we were able to catch up and just talk! I love it! He's a pretty great friend.
Needless to say, this ordinary Tuesday turned into a pretty great day! Nothing too crazy, but definitely something I am grateful for.
So thanks friends, you're pretty awesome, and I'm pretty lucky.

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. ...
