"We are God's children, and if we Ever got that through our heads thouroughly and understood that competely, we would never do a small thing, we would never say a cross word. We would not use bad language. We would not criticize anybody. We would love everyone the way the Savior loves us."

Update on life at the moment

So currently as I write this I am in Yuma with my family. I have been here about a week or so. I will be here all this week and a few days next week. In 11 days on the 29th of May I will be traveling to Utah with my Dad and possibly Ryan my brother. I have to be up Provo Canyon on June 2nd to start training. I'm so excited. I will be working at a Girl Scout Camp for GSU or Girl Scouts of Utah. I'm ready for something to do and some cool weather. I haven't really done too much since being home. I was sick most of last week and it sucked...so I slept a lot. I played volley ball w/ some friends on Friday night. When I got there I saw Josh and I instantly got butterflies in my stomach. I hadn't even gotten out of the car yet. I go out and went over to play. I was so good to see him again after 2 yrs. He is the same ol Josh that I knew before his mission. I am going to ask him on a date sometime this week I think...as soon as I find some guts to. Saturday I took my lil sis Ashli to a Student council interview...She wants to be in the student council next year. Can you believe it she is going to be a Freshman in High school...I can't. Then I helped mom clean and then we went shoppin most of the day. It was fun but not as well. I found this amazing BRIGHT GREEN swim suit! I love it! Then we went to find some shoes for Ashli and I ended up buying a pair of flip flops and some really cute shoes...idk what to call them but I love them. Then we went Bra shoppin.....NOT MY FAV AT ALL!! It was a successful day for sure. Sunday I attended my parents ward and felt very out of place. It was weird being there. Today I am hangin w/ mom at her office. Its been a good summer so far! More to come later. I will fill you all in later about how the that goes...if I ask him. I want to go on a picnic and just talk and get to know him again. But we will see how that actually goes! Have a great day Y'all!

Temple Day


Yesterday I had the opportunity to attend the temple with Wendy, Steph and Kendra(Wendy's sister). It was an AMAZING day. I love the temple so much. It brings me such peace and comfort. I love sitting in all white and pondering on life and pondering on the scriptures. Its a great place to find answers. I know that my Heavenly Father loves me. I felt that in the temple. I felt a reassurance that I'm being taken care of and that EVERYTHING will be ok. I know that the Lord has a plan for me and He knows what will happen in my life. I'm so thankful for the knowledge that I have of this. The temple has blessed me greatly. I love serving others and helping them receive the gospel. I have learned so much through the temple in my life. The feelings that I had in the temple yesterday are unexplainable. They are the most incredible feelings ever. I can't wait for the day when I will be married in the temple and receive the other blessings from it. "Trust in the Lord and all shall work out for good or fall out of our lives forever"(IDK if these are the exact words) this quote hit me so strongly yesterday and I know w/ all of my heart it is true. I'm so very thankful for all the blessing that I have received from going to the temple. I have made it a goal to go to the temple more often than I do. I know that the blessings of going to the temple are so great and powerful.

Wendy Loved these flowers so she took a picture of them. This is the first time she has ever been to the Mesa Temple.

She loved this rock and wanted a picture on it. I got one too!
