Conference Weekend

So I was able to go to General Conference in Utah and it was such a blast! Me and my two roomies Wendy and Stephanie went together. It was such a long, crazy, wild, and fun drive. We listened to music loud and sang loud. We ate junk and had tons of fun. On the way up we were starting to fall asleep so at every long long curvy turn we would scream so loud til the curvy road was over. It was so fun. At one point of the trip we stopped at some random spot and stretched and took some pics. It was kinda cold and the wind was blowing but it felt good to me. Wendy and Stephanie were FREEZING!!! We arrived in Spanish Fork Utah at 3 am on Saturday morning. We left Thatcher at about 1ish Friday afternoon. Saturday was a loooong day but it was so worth it! We saw some people that we knew and it was fun. We had tickets for the Saturday afternoon session and it was amazing. The spirit was so strong in the Conference center. It was a great experience for me and my roommates. They had never been to conference before and Wendy had never been to Utah. It was so fun. We went and walked around Temple Square afterwards and I met up with some friends there. I met up with Emily(Red), Brynne(Sage), and Sherry it was so great to see them. I miss them and wish that they didn't live so far away. After Conference we went and ate lunch/dinner. Then after we ate we changed and went to Provo Towne mall and shopped around for a while. It was so fun. Sunday we watched Conference at Steph's cousins house and then after the session we packed up and got ready to leave. We ate lunch and then went to Salem Utah to see Chelsey. After that we were on our way back to Thatcher. On the way we were able to listen to conference and it was so great! On our way home we stopped at this place called Vermillion Cliffs and played in the rock house and on the many humongous rocks. We had so much fun and took lots of pictures. We got home about 1:30 am Monday morning. It was a long drive for sure. WE HAD A BLAST!!!
This is my favorite picture!

From Camp to School..The Real World is Back

So from living in the mountains all summer long and lovin every minute of it. I of course miss the great mountain air, the amazing stars at night, the rain that we got, the AMAZZZZZIN friends that i met. I loved being with them so much. I am now back to reality and the real world. I'm not sure that I'm ready to be back in the real world yet but I have been for about 2 weeks or so. School is going well and things are working out for good. I seem to go to school everyday and every night i have sooo much homework. Its comin out my ears. But thats the life of a college student. This year is going to be a great one. So far this semester I am loving it. I love my roommates, my ward, and the amazin people that are here In Thatcher. I'm getting so EXCITED for the temple to be finished here shortly. I am the 1st Counselor in the RS and am loving every moment of it. The girls that I work with are so great. I am so blessed with so many great things in my life. I love everything about it. I am glad that I have friends to talk to because it makes all the difference in the world. I talk to a Sage (Brynne Lyttle) and Tank (Heather Mathisen) pretty much every day through text messaging. Its nice to talk to them but i miss them so much, there are no words to describe how much i miss them. Sage and I talk on the phone once a week. Usually on Sundays but this weekend she is with her fam and a Mountain Man Rondevu and so I will get to talk to her tomorrow on my Bday. It will be great! My lil brother Hyrum became a Deacon today and its so exciting! I am sad that I wasn't able to be there for it but I have responsibilities here so I stayed in Thatcher. That is my life this far into the semester. I'll keep you posted if anything else happens.
Thanks to everyone who has helped me these last few months and weeks. I appreciate it so much!

Where has all the time gone!?

So the summer is all gone...where did it go? I am currently in Yuma w/ my fam and on Friday will be headed back to school. I start school on Monday and am not excited about it. But I can't wait to see my roommates and other friends. The summer was long and too short all at the same time. I am glad my job is over but sad that i had to leave the cool weather and the most amazin friends in the world. I need to now keep my routine and schedule like i had it this summer. like eating 3 meals and 2 snacks, going to bed at 10ish, waking up at 7ish...oh the days of a schedule and daily routine. I need to keep up on good habits. Well for those of you reading this have a great day! :)

Its been an interesting summer to say the least and am glad its almost done. I will be done this weekend.....idk where all the time went. So Its here and I'm SUPER happy!

CAMP IS ALMOST OVER!!!!!!!!

I can't belive how fast this summer has gone. I'm kinda glad thought because i'm ready to be done. Camp is not what I was expecting and its alot harder than last summer. I love the staff that I work with but its just been hard this summer. Alot has gone on and its time to go home...I'm so ready to be w/ my family but not excited for the Nasty Az heat. I have made alot of wonderful friends and its gonna be hard to say good bye. I have 3 weeks left then I'm headed back to Az. I will miss Utah and all the amazing friends that i made this year and the ones from last year. I'm not ready for school to start either. But I have to do what I have to do.
