Thank you!!!

I just want to put a special THANKS out to Suzanne and Nicole for being the best ever!! They totally took care of me when i had my surgery and brought me food and books and magazines to read and just kept me company. They seriously are the best friends ever THANK YOU GUYS!!!

And of course my family. My sister Brittany let me crash at her house for days as i couldn't even get up to go to the bathroom without crying! Her and her husband and kids were great to help me out! But they always have been there to take care of me and make sure i get what i need. They are the best ever. And my Parents took me and suffered through my craziness and restlessness at the hospital. And Heather kept checking on me. It was a family event for sure! But hey i didn't hit any doctors this time! That's an accomplishment!!!

I really had a lot of people reach out in love and support and i think that's what made it a great experience!! THANK you for all your love and support!!! I couldn't be here without you!

NOW.... and THEN......

SO i have some of the BEST friends anyone could ever ask for. I was going through some of my old pictures, and laughing at how long we have all been friends. I have know all of you SINCE MIDDLE SCHOOL!! Even some since ELEMENTARY SCHOOL! So i started putting together just a few of the pictures of our group together over the last decade....(or longer) Oh how i love you guys you always make me smile!!!! Here's to you guys!!! I seriously could not be where i am today without these girls. I have leaned on every one of their shoulders at least once and turned to them for support and strength. And they have ALWAYS been there for me when I needed them! I have learned Millions upon millions of lessons from each of them and i am so thankful to have everyone of you in my life! I hope you enjoy the memories as much as i did!! I can't wait to see what happens with us over the next decade! Love you!
P.S. If you have any other note worthy pics to add to this blog, let me know!!!!

Suzanne's Wedding, New Bunny, Rodeo and Summer of fun!!!

Ok so i am lame! I haven't updated in forever. So the first thing i want to report is Tonight I went to Suzanne's Wedding. She looked SO amazing. I am so happy for her and James. It was a beautiful outdoor reception with people i love!!!!

Second thing I want to report is I got a new bunny!! Her name is Bella. And she is going to be my new class pet. I am switching to third grade this year, and have never had a pet. I was reading a book awhile ago called "32 third graders and one class bunny." It was then that i decided i should get a bunny! Lucky for me Kristen's rabbits had bunnies and she offered to give me one!!! I am already attached to her, and it has been a lot of fun!!

Last but not least, Heather and Isaac invited us to go to the Rodeo this week. It was so much fun! Mikel talked me into getting a cowboy hat! Yikes! I have never owned a cowboy hat in my life. We both bought one, so we could really be in the spirit. It was fun. Heather and Isaac borrowed our hats so they could be "Real Cowboys too!" I am glad we got to go with them!!


So Far this summer has been fun! I have finished two of my Master's classes, which means only 3 more to go until i am totally finished with my Master's in Education!!! I am so excited. Other than that i have just been having fun, working hard and getting ready for school to start! Lucky for me i am D track which means they all go back to school on Monday!!! And i get the first 3 weeks off!!!! THANK GOODNESS for more time off!!!! I love sunshine and sleep!!

Merry Unbirthday to me!

OK so Suzanne, me and Karen decided to be crazy and go to Disneyland to celebrate all of our "Unbirthdays" this weekend. We drove to Vegas and stayed at Kelli's house,(a friend of from BYU)and then got up super duper early to drive to Disneyland we didn't even get to really sleep much at all! Then we went all over Disneyland having a blast. There were a lot of people there but amazingly it wasn't too bad. We got to do everything i wanted to do, and more! Dennis Quaid was right in front of us at Space Mountain he went on the car right before us. The people around us were freaking out, it was funny. Also they were filming the Disney Christmas special that is going to be on ABC on Christmas day, so the Jonas Brothers were there performing at the park, they had a cool stage with presents and Christmas trees, it was really beautiful and fun! People were pretty crazy though! Then we got stuck in the Indian Jones ride FOREVER! They turned on a huge bright light and we had to talk to the mechanics and the people that work there. We had to keep taking on and off our seat belts while the shut the power off and on. Then it started working we went a little ways in the pure darkness, and stopped again right underneath Indian Jones! Just before the big boulder is coming at you and you drop, which happens to be my favorite part, but when you get stuck and they turn on the lights and Indi Kept looking around and just hanging there while the boulder spinned a head of us, it kinda ruined the suspense of the ride. BUT we got little vouchers that let us come back and ride it again later when it was finally fixed... It was a long ride! It was a super fun trip. Then the next morning we went to Newport Beach which was beautiful. It was windy though and the waves were HUGE I loved it! The weather in California was so nice it was even hot a few times! It was like 76 or 78 degrees, and just lovely! A little cooler at the beach, but hey it beats snow!! Then we drove the entire way home it rained a little bit but we saw an amazing rainbow it was so bright and vibrant! Then it became a double rainbow. It was like the first time i have ever seen a full rainbow completely arch across the sky and you could see both of them even though the top one was lighter! It was gorgeous. Perfect ending to a fabulous weekend!~ It was a crazy but super fun weekend! I didn't take as many pictures as i wanted to but here are the ones i did take!

Fun weekend! And Random Memories!

Ok so i wanted to tell you about my fun weekend. First Friday i went to watch niece Ade have swimming lessons. If you have never had the opportunity to see 4 year olds try to learn how to swim I definitely recommend it, it is like the cutest thing EVER! Then after that Friday Night i went with Ade (*who happens to be my favorite 4 year old in the world) to the opening night of high school musical 3. It ended up being a family affair, my parents and my sister came too. There were TONS of cute girls dressed up to support the movie, everyone was screaming and clapping. Ade couldn't even sit in her seat she was so excited! She stood up a couple of times to dance and clap along. Although, i am not sure it is as much fun as the other two movies since she can sing every song in those ones... it was a lot of fun! Then on Saturday I had lunch with my super cute pregnant friend Jessica who i love to death! She is the best. I am lucky to have such an awesome friend who i get to work with at school and she still agrees to eat lunch with me on the weekends!! It was only like a 3 hour lunch!! We were lucky we stopped talking after that long, you never know how long our outings are going to be together! Then Saturday night i went out with my long lost friend Suzanne who was super cool to go to dinner and watch a movie with. it was so much fun to just talk and catch up and know that we are all in the same but very different crazy stage of life together. Then i came home and decided to finally upload pictures from my camera which have been on there for literally years.... So Now i am sharing them with you. Some of them are old school stuff, student council, vacations, graduations, New babies, and other random activities. It's quite the mix of memories. Enjoy!
