*.*Christmas Vacation*.*

So Its been FOREVER since I updated! So here is some back dating blogs! Over the Holidays I went to Florida for Christmas! I spent about a week in the Orlando area working and catching up with friends at Disney, then I spent 11 more days in West Palm with dear old Mom and Dad! It was awesome to be home, sleep in my own bed, and eat my Moms amazing cooking! YAY! Here are some pictures from the trip! I <3>

Thanksgiving

So for Thanksgiving John and I flew to Virginia to spend the Holiday with his family! The Dows are some of the nicest people you will ever meet! His parents are a lot of fun to talk to and his nieces and nephews are so cute and fun! We stayed with his parents and just spent time hanging out around the house and going out and enjoying the holiday crowds. The Dows house was a little under-construction due to some basement flooding and the remodeling was going on but it was fun to see the changes they were making! Here are some pictures from John and mines trip!

John and I at a Washington Capitals game. We won of course!

Anytime one of the kids come home they tie yellow ribbons on the trees!

John and I are rarely serious.

Funny Fall Days

So I live in the basement of a family from my ward in Florida in Alpine, and they have 3 of the most adorable kids in the world, Isac, Eliana, and Adaline! I love spending time with them! Here are some funny pictures we took on my computer after we built a giant fort!

FALL FUN

So this Fall has been so full of fun things to do! Gentri threw a dinner party for some friends and it was so awesome! I made Butternut Sqaush Soup and she made chicken baked and wrapped in bacon and we had breadsticks and bubbly apple cider! It was great to get a good group of friends together and have fun! Then a couple weeks later we went on a triple date to go see the Thriller dance concert up at the University of Utah! Talk about fun! We went to the Pie before hand and got the hugest pizza ever! YUM!

Also we took a trip up to Gardner village and got to see all the fun Halloween Decorations up there! Its so neat! We also went and saw a live play of The Legend of Sleepy Hallowe! So much fun! It was in an outside amphitheater and the moon was almost full!

Then recently we went to Cornbellys Corn maze at Thanksgiving Point and got lost inside the giant David Archiletta corn maze, Did a haunted corn maze and played lots of fun games and a huge Pumpkin Tower! My bestest Brandy was able to join us on that trip cause she was in town for a wedding!

A few days later John took me to Nightmare on 13th! Which was pretty scary, (sorry for the bruising on your hands baby!) I held on so tight! But it was fun! We also had a great October Enrichment! We had a soup bar and made some super fun crafts and breads! So far this has been one of the best falls ever! And on top of all the fun activities it has been so amazing watch all the green leaves turn to bright yellow and then orange and finally red! I love FALL!

Back to the Burg

So its official I am going to be moving to Rexburg Idaho in Jaunary. Jaunary 3 to be exact. I will be living up at Legacy Ridge right by the Rexburg Temple and will be going to school for my Bachelors of Science in Communications with an emphasis in Organizational Communication. I am so excited and blessed to be able to return to school! Its going to be a great time and I can't wait to finish my education and graduate!

Blast From the Past!

So today while I was at work, a conversation was started about old school toys and cartoons, and soon after I started remembering all the toys that are locked up in my parents attic, and I must say, that compared to toys that you see in stores now, mine were 100% more fun and better made! lol so enjoy and let me know if you had any of the same toys, here are a few of my favorites!

1) Rainbow Brite

2) Rose Petal

3) She-Ra Princess of Power

4) Smooshies!

5) Bubble Belles

6) Care Bears/ Care Bear Cousins

7) Glow Friends

8) My Little Ponies

9) Wish World Kids

10) Keepers

11) Puppy Surprise

If you hadn't guess by now I was super spoiled as a child! But I loved all my toys! Yay for child hood remembrance!

Just when you think life is impossible!

I have learned an important principle tonight. If we are faithful to the Lord he will keep his promises and uphold his side of the bargain. I always thought that this was true but had never had a specific experience that made me really have a testimony of it.

I have recently made some very serious promises with the Lord and have had to be very patient in receiving answers to my prayers, but they have finally been answered and I just want to cry with happiness and relief! I am so grateful for the gospel, its influence in my life and my many good and bad experiences in Utah this year, it truly is where I was supposed to be.
