"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."

My Brother

Who is my Brother?
He is one who is close to my heart
Who is my Brother?
He is one who died for my sins
Who is my Brother?
He is one who came to earth to save me
Who is my Brother?
He is one who comforts me through all my struggles
Who is my Brother?
He is one who suffered so much for me
Who is my Brother?
He is one who loves me no matter what
Who is my Brother?
He is God’s son
Who is my Brother?
He is the one
Who is my Brother?
He is my Savior
Who is my Brother?
He is Jesus Christ My Brother

Today while I was at the Christmas seminar these words started flowing through my head and I had a few tears in my easy. I love My big Brother with all of my heart.

God's Light

God’s light is always on for us
Going through life, it’s not easy but with God it’s a little bit easier.
Like the temple lights that are on always for us to see the glowing purity and love of Christ for us.
God’s light is always on for us
No matter what happens in our lives we can always be happy with Christ and Heavenly Father in our lives.
God’s light is always on for us
Even if we feel that we are unworthy of His love and feel that we are not worthy to be forgiven.
God’s light is on for us
Through prayer God is always with us no matter where we are in life and no matter where we live. He is always waiting for that phone call from us and His phone line is never too busy for us. So pick up the “phone” and talk to your best friend, he is waiting for us to share our day with Him.
God’s light is always on for us
When we are baptized and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost we receive the light of Christ. Never let your light turn off. Keep commitment and keep that light on always.
God’s light is always on for us
Through thick and thin, through happiness and joy, through trials and struggles, heart ache and pain, birth and death, through it all,
God’s light is always on
When out with friends your mom and dad will keep the light on til you come home.
God’s light is always on for us
No matter what you stand for, do what you know is right and keep that light shining bright. Even if you know it or not you are setting an example to all those around you and will have some kind of effect on them that may remain unknown to you forever. Be that example and share God’s light with all you meet.
God’s light is always on for us and will always stay on for us

This poem was inspired by a testimony shared today at church by a young woman in the ward. It stuck with me and the thoughts just began to flow.

Saturday we all went to a baseball game and had so much fun then afterwards we had a huge BBQ at the park and mingled and had fun. Sunday we went to Church and visited some ppl that Kari knows. Monday we went shoppin for somethings that Kari needed and I was able to get Presents for my family and it was nice. Then later on we packed up our stuff and came back to T-Town Monday night. I had a lot of fun playing with them and was glad to give Kari a lil break. Her baby's name is Patrick Allen Jensen, he is 2 months old and so great.Kari is such a great mom and I know that she loves being a mom too.

My Get Away Trip to Utah

I just recently got back from an awesome trip to Utah. I have been asked why did I go and well I simply tell them that I needed a break and time to destress. Kinda like runnin away. I stayed with my friend Chelsey Beck. She is so great. we had lots of fun together. So I left on Wed October 14th at 6:00 am to drive to Phoenix to catch my plane that flew out at 11:15 am. Stephanie my awesome roommate took me. We arrived about 9ish and got to where I needed to be. I waited about an hour and a half then off I flew to SLC airport. This is where my Friend Janice picked me up and we met Chelsey at the Walmart in Orem. Chels and I ran some errands then headed to Salem where she lives. We unloaded my stuff and ate dinner with her family not long after that. After dinner for like 2 hours or so we did homeowrk then we could play. After Homework we watched Monsters VS Aliens. Its such a funny movie. On Thursday we lounged around the house doing homework and we watched tv and then we watched Wolverine. it was a great movie. Friday we had a game night with some friends. Tank(Heather) and Rainy came down and played with us. they slept over and we played so many games. Guitar Hero was one, Mario Cart races, Ultimate spoons, and many more. It was a great night. Saturday we lounged until Chels had to go to work. Then Tank and I went to the batting cages and hit about 50 balls. It was fun and I did well for not hitting in a long time. We played mini golf as well. it was awesome because it was all lit up by black lights and all the paintings on the wall were florescent. Then we played arcade games. About 7 we went and saw my Gma in Riverton. She invited us to stay for dinner. We were just gonna stop on the way back to Salem but how can you turn down Gma's free food and it was Steak! So we stayed. It was so fun. My Gmas brother was there with his wife,Uncle Ken and Aunt Annaliece. Annaliece was trying to plan my life but I wouldn't let her. We left at like 11, wasn't plannin on bein there so long but we were. Watched Emergency with Chels til we fell asleep. Sunday we didn't do anything at all. We watched more episodes of Emergency. It was nice to relax. Then it was time to pack up and shower. I packed up and headed to Riverton. We made a pit stop in Provo so that I could see my really good friend Amber Martin. Man I love her so much. We talked for a good hour or two. Finally at Gmas, Lindy made some good dinner and then Heather(Tank) headed home. Brad and I watched football and the Chicago Bears STUNK it up and I was so disappointed! Monday rolls around and I have to get everything ready to go. Gma and I ate Breakfast and then headed to the airport. I didn't want to go but I had to. My flight went well til we were about to land. It was a rough landin and I had been feelin sick all mornin and as much as I tried to hold it in the faster it came. I PUKED all over the seat next to me. It was so gross and EMBARRASSIN!! Then I get off the plane and find a bathroom to clean up and I find out that Stephanie is stuck in construction and will be late pickin me up. So I call a friend and she picked me up til Steph could come. Feelin so sick we drove home. I hurt all over had a headache and my tummy hurt so bad. Well we got stuck in construction for like 30 minutes. Finally home and I got ready for bed and then went to bed from 8:30pm til about 4:30 pm the next day. It was a great trip minus the getting sick all over the plane.

This is Rainy playing backwards and she did pretty good for doing it backwards. She is pretty crazy...if you think that this is crazy she also played upside down and left handed...im sad I didn't get pics of her doing it.

Albuquerque New Mexico Balloon Festival

The Balloon blowing up first thing in the mornin!!
So 2 friends and I made a trip to ABQ one weekend to visit Asha and Lisa. We were going to see the balloons and have a great weekend spending time with friends. It was so great and I have never seen balloons like that up close. So we got there on Friday afternoon and we played and had a BBQ later that night. We woke up on Sat morning at 5:30 am but in Az in was only 4:30 am and oh man was that early. SO we left the house and went to the launching of the balloons at 6:30 and it was about 37 degrees and it was pretty cold. But it was so fun. It was way cool to watch them launch. We bought some souvenirs and then went back to Asha's house to warm up and nap. while we chilled we watch football and slept. It was great. Then we went to this Wing place and had some great wings with the girls. After lunch we met up with Jon(Asha's boy friend) and went back to the festival. We hug out played ate walked until it got dark then we went to watch fire works! We sat in the pit...it was sooooooo SWEET!! the ground shook and it was just amazing. Went home and slept. Sunday we woke up showered and headed back to Az.


The National Anthem was playin while the balloon went up in the air. It was so cool!

I took this one for my mom. She loved it

That Gang is back together again!!

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!
