Late Post!!!!!

Hey everyone! So its been a while since I last wrote. I have been so freaking busy! Sorry for the lack of update. 

Life has been pretty much amazing. I love how things are falling perfectly into place. 

Last week, Wed-Fri, my family was able to go to Utah and have some fun down there. My mom ended up doing a coupon class at my aunt Diana's and it went pretty well. This class was a lot more lively than the one she had before. I enjoyed it a lot mainly because I was able to see my family. (Her coupon class was Wednesday night.) On Thursday, we went to the Family History Center, the Church History Museum, and the Gateway mall. My grandparents are missionaries at the FHC, so we were able to get to see what kinds of different things they do there. It was really neat to learn stories about past relatives that I have, have never heard about, or have but have forgotten about. It was truly a really neat experience. After we went there, we went to the museum. I have never learned so much about the church history than when I went to this museum. It was absolutely incredible. I loved it. On my phone, I took over 120 photos. My phone has become fairly slow since I took so many. Haha. I enjoyed it so much though. And the spirit there was incredible. I can't wait to go back soon! Later, we went with my  mom's sister and her family to the Gateway mall for dinner. We didn't go shopping, because of how wore out everyone was. Everyone's feet were starting to hurt. So dinner was all we did. We headed back to our cars and went out separate ways. My mom went with her sister back to her house though. 

Since we all got back home, I have been fairly busy. I worked yesterday and today. It was really fun. I got to work with new girls that I hadn't met yet. They were all fabulous and very sweet! I can't wait to see who I work with next week. Most of all though, I can't wait to get paid Friday!!!!! My first paycheck!!!! =D It shall be wonderful! 

I also can't wait because very soon, I will be able to see the man I very much love with all of my heart! I am so very grateful that my parents do not mind if we go on a date because of certain circumstances. But he is absolutely wonderful and means more than I can ever explain. 

Until next time though... Have a great night everyone!

The Miraculous Sunday

There is just something about Sundays that make it one of the best days ever. Maybe because of Sunday naps, or going to church, or maybe just the spirit it gives me. But I love Sundays and am so grateful that they always come back around. 

Yesterday was a very good day. My mom had her coupon class. (Which only like 9 people showed up too. Thanks for everyone just barging in through the door!!!) Lol! Just kidding. =)  Even though not many people showed up, it went good. It was extremely quiet compared to the first coupon class my mom had, which was a plus! Not too many questions. AND!!!!, it was less than 2 hours! Which was absolutely fantastic! The first one she didn't get through even half of all the stuff about coupons, and it went over 2 hours long. 

After her class, I was able to go to a car show that was just ending right when I arrived! I made it to see about 8 cars at the most. They were absolutely gorgeous vehicles!! I have never seen such a more beautiful '56 Ford pickup. It was a bright yellow color, had amazing chrome bumpers and wheels. So many amazing things done to it...

I also went to the mall and helped my dad and siblings look for a birthday gift for my mom. Her birthday is tomorrow. We wanted to get her something that was special and meant a lot, but also wasn't extremely pricey. I was also able to go and see my boss. She is such a sweetheart! I am so sad though cause she is moving to Boise and wont be my manager anymore. She is looking for a new one to hire. I told her that the new manager has to be like her. Fun, exciting, good attitude, etc... 

Today has been really good too. The spirit was so strong at church! The talks given in sacrament were about getting closer to Heavenly Father and knowing him better. Doing that would make you know yourself better and how many blessings you really do have. Another talk was on service. Not just for inside of the church or in the home, but for those who you may not like, talk to, or even know. Just doing it with real intent in your heart. With real love and not caring about the blessings given and received from doing the service. It was a really good day at church. 


We also had someone come to look at our house this evening. I'm not getting my hopes up though. I just hate getting depressed when no one buys our home. So I am done getting excited about it. 


Anyway... Have a great night everyone! =) Sweet dreams!

July 10th's Post!

Hey everyone! So there hasn't really been much happen that I can post. So until more events come, the only thing I can really think of to post is...................................


COUPON CLASS! TODAY - 1PM! MY HOUSE! BE THERE! =D Brownies will be served too! It is so worth it to learn new things about coupons and saving money. Times are getting harder and will keep on getting that way. It is wonderful to have a little extra money! 

The wonderful 8th of July of the year 2010

Hey everybody! Not too much to post today. Just giving an update =)

Today my mom, siblings and I all went to the pool today. It was nice for the first little bit. Then I started getting cranky. 

Actually... I have been cranky since yesterday afternoon. Long story short... I hate people who cause drama that is totally unnecessary. It really bothers me. But oh well. 

I am doing better this evening. I guess I just need some time to calm down and get away. Thankfully, the week after next, I get to go to Utah for a few days. It is going to be wonderful. I love going down there. It is my favorite place ever. I think I love it so much down there is because of all the wonderful and incredible church history there is all over the area. Like the stories about all of the pioneers crossing the plains, mountains, and valleys to get the the Great Salt Lake area. Its just wonderful to hear those kind of stories. 

Anyway... That is all for tonight! Have a great night!

P.S.- Don't forget about my mom's couponing class on Saturday at 1p.m.at our house!!!! Its going to be a blast! You will learn so much that you never knew about before! And there will be cookies!! Come for the cookies if not for the couponing =P Hahahaha, just kidding.  

The 7th of July, 2010!

Alrighty! So I last posted on the 1st of July. Today is the 7th of July!! How crazy is that! Time goes by way too quickly...

Well, since my last post, not too much has happened. For the Fourth of July weekend, my family had some fun. We went to Burley and spent some time with family and friends, and also watched the fireworks. The fireworks this year were really amazing and beautiful. While watching fireworks, I was talking to someone very special to me. We both have this goal/hope to watch fireworks together next year. It would be so amazing if that were able to happen. 

Anyway, when we first got down there, we parked our car and everyone in the car saw my Great-grandma Dayley sitting in her truck with one of her friends. It was so wonderful to see her. I don't get to see her very often since we moved. So it was a special day. 

My grandma is VERY into working on our families ancestry and getting all of our ancestors work done so we, youth, are able to do baptisms and sealings for them. A few months ago, she sent me a huge package in the mail of tons of ancestors in our family. Each of them had stories beyond my comprehension. It was absolutely incredible to be able to read and share some of the experiences each of them had. One of these days I will post one of the stories she sent to me. My Great-grandma has asked me to write a history of my life for her, so that she may be able to add it to all of our family history stories. I told her I would absolutely LOVE to do that for her.

I kind of got to thinking about my past and all of the adventures and things I could think of and put in a story for her history book. While thinking of things, I thought that my blog, and all of my posts on here are part of my history. I write as much as I can about the every day things that have happened to me and mean so much to my heart. So I have decided that I am going to send my grandma all of my posts and then also post on here some of my past experiences from when I was born, to where I am now. I think this will be a good thing for not only her and getting my history put together, but also me and the things I will be able to remember that will add to my wonderful memory. Remembering historical things that are apart of you and your family are some of the most precious treasures possible. So I can't wait to get everything sent to her!

******************************************

Anyways... After the weekend was over, I started to get a cold. Unfortunately, its been getting worse and not as much better. Hopefully I will feel better soon. 

Next week is girls camp. My sister Shelly will be going, but I won't be attending. I have a job now! So I will be working. I am not complaining though. I am grateful to have this job. Its a great opportunity and it is going to be a fun experience. I also don't like going to girls camp that often... I have anxiety that gets pretty rough whenever I am with people I do not know or trust well. So I feel having this job will be better for me anyways. 

The week after, I hope to go to Utah. My mom is doing this coupon class for my family and they are going to invite friends and other family relatives of theirs. I hope it will be a big turn out. And I also hope to see someone special to me while down there for a few days. =) Thankfully though, if I am not able to go down that week, I will be there the next week for sure for my cousin Alisha's baptism! It is going to be a wonderful month. My grandparents from Georgia are flying in for the special occasion too. And I will be able to see some friends I haven't seen in a while either. I can't wait!

Well, I will write again soon! Have a wonderful evening everyone! =D 

*****************************************************

Prices are going up, and money needs to be saved! This is the perfect time to learn how to save more!!!!! =D

Update!!!!!!!!

Hey everyone! So its been like almost a week since I last posted and figured I need to keep posting or else I will get lazy and not write anymore. Things that have happened in the past week.... Um, now I have to think back so long ago...

Last Saturday I thought that my best friend was coming home from college for the weekend, but he ended up saying that he was going to come this weekend instead, because of the Fourth of July. He wouldn't have been able to come for the holiday if he had come last Saturday. Luckily, I get to see him on this coming Saturday! I can not wait. I miss him so much! I wonder sometimes if he realizes how much he means to me... 

Anyway - I ended up thinking I wouldn't have plans for last weekend, because I had planned several things with some of my friends, and also Jake, my bestie! But, fortunately, I got lucky and ended up getting plans. The sad part is....I do not remember what those plans were, at the moment. 

Sunday was a pretty good day. My daddy taught our Family Home Evening for that night. (We do it on Sundays instead of Mondays cause he works that night.) He had each of us write everyone's names on a piece of paper, three names to a side. Then he had us make two columns for each person. The first titled "Now", and the other "Future". Under the now column, he had each of us (privately) write what we thought that persons goals were for right now and the next 2 weeks to a month. When we were done with that column, we had to do the same in the other column, but what we thought their goals were for the future. When we were finished, we each got to read aloud the first column about each person in our family. Most of us got the goals right for that column, but there were several that we got wrong or was close to, but not quite. Then we had to do the same for the "Future" column. There were more missing spots in this column. To our surprise, we did not know each other as well as we should. My dad's lesson was to see how well we know our own family. Not anybody outside of it. Yes, we do know each other well. But we don't know each other as good as we should. We should be a closer family and know, if not every single thing, most everything that that person wishes for their life now, and then. Since he taught that lesson, we, as a family, have been trying to think of ways we can spend more time together and get to know each other better. 

On Monday, I started my job at Downeast Basics, in the mall. Well, it was more of a tutorial day instead of starting work. I officially start working on the 13th of July. I don't know why I start that late, but oh well. As long as I get to keep the job, I'm happy. I thank Heavenly Father for giving me this job. I feel it will be an amazing experience for me before I go to college. I chose to apply there because of the really good modest clothing the sell. Just because the clothes are modest does not mean they are not in style. The clothes Downeast Basics sell are very much up to date with style and adorable designs. So I love how they sell these products with a modest touch to them.

Today my family went to the Rec Center to go swimming with some neighbors from our ward. It was pretty fun. Though, I would like to ask the Rec to warm the pool water!!!! It was ice cold when I got in. But, I was not alone. Everyone thought the water was fridged! When we got home, we all got some food, and started relaxing and getting ready for my dad to go to work. I went to my room to, what I thought would just lay down for a few minutes, but turned into a couple hours of sleep. It was nice to get a nap in, but I missed saying goodbye to my daddy. I hope he knows I love him with my whole heart! I wish there was some way I could express how much I love him more than I already do. It worries me that he doesn't know how much I do love him. He is my hero and means the world to me. I wish every single person could have a father like mine. He is absolutely amazing. 

Anyway.... I will write again soon! Have a wonderful evening. =)
