My Mom is Amazing


So besides the fact that my mom is my best friend, she is also amazing at her second job. You know the one where she gets paid! LOL But anyways for those of you who may not know my Mom is a CRNA which means she drugs you so you don't feel anything when you have surgery. Today She was able to be the Anesthesiologist for Dara Torres who lives in FL with her Family. Dara Torres is an Olympic Swimmer(41) who recently returned home from Beijing with 3 silver medals! Anyway My mom was in the surgery the whole time and made sure she had a good surgery. If you want to watch the surgery its on CNN.com and you can follow the link below to see it. My mom is standing behind the Blue operator sheet and you can see her silhouette the whole time!
Way to go mom, your amazing!
Plus it was cool getting to see my mom from so far away! MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU MOM!

A Complete 180

So it seems like just when you think your life is down in the dumps and all hell is breaking loose on you personally, the Lord finds a way to brighten your day, lighten your load, and of course chase the clouds away. My load is light, my heart is happy, and I am fully back to loving life. Funny how if we didn't have any pain we would never know bliss. In the last 2 or 3 weeks my time days have been so full of things to do its been such a blessing, between finishing up school at SLCC and going to the temple and going to ward activities and planning enrichments I have had little time to get on and update.
Right now life has never been better. I am out of school for the fall and going to be working my butt off to try and save up some money for the winter. I am currently serving as 2nd counselor in the RS presidency in my Singles Ward and love my calling. The sisters in my ward are amazing and I learn so much from them every week! Its also our wards turn to take the cleaning assignment for our church building which has been a wonderful service opportunity. On top of all the great church stuff going on I have been able to spend more time with the wonderful Trinnaman clan! They are so amazing and so much fun. We eat dinner and play games every sunday! Their oldest daughter and her husband and 2 kids are getting ready to move back from VA for a little while so there will be even more fun to be had!
Life is great and the mountains are beautiful in the summer. I will try and get some pictures posted soon but it all depends on when I get my hands on them and then get my computer somewhere that has the internet!
Till then!
xoxo
