Wozers!

For memorial weekend we went repelling and rock climbing up cottonwood canyon with Tay's family~

Me rock climbing~

Tay reaching the top~


We had a really good time~~~~~I won't lie at first I was scared being so high up but then it was just like an amazing feeling and I wanted to do it over and over again!:)

Repelling~







~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For the first time we went to Jump on It..it is a place full of trampolines..well it was lot of fun until I damaged my big toe! I have hurt my right foot so many times, I believe it needs a break. Other then that we had a good time with Liz and Trevor:) It is always fun to hang out with married couples~

Oh this story makes me laugh..

Last week I was at my sister in law's baby shower at Mama N's (Tay's mom) house and Tay's little sister was in her dad's car and she was trying to back out of the garage (she thought the car was in reverse but it was in drive) and ran right through it into the house! Oh it was so funny and sad at the same time! She was really upset about it..which I would be to but we were laughing because it was just so funny!

Here is a cute pic of the sisters: Molly comforting Robbin:)
I didn't get any of the garage but I didn't feel appropriate taking pics at the moment.

Just 2....

I have 2 things on my mind I would like to blog about at this very moment.

1st thing..

We are having some serious back issues when we wake up in the morning. I have NEVER had back problems!..until now of course..well this is because our bed is TOO SOFT! We don't have a very firm bed so last night we took our Temperpedic foam top and put it on the floor. I loved it! we had such a fun time..it was like having a sleep over. We stayed up late talking and we enjoyed ever min with each other!

Best part about it is we woke up with NO back pains.

Well as nice as this was I really don't want to be sleeping on the floor every night now..after all it is kind of tacky to have our bed on the living room floor. So we will just need to come up with a different solution for the long run.

on another note...the "2nd" note..

I like this place.......actually...I LOVE THIS PLACE~


Tay and I have a goal to go to the temple 2 times a month. Yesterday we went; there is such a sweet and strong spirit that I always feel around my heart that I would just long to have with me all the time! My love for Tay and everyone and everything in the world is amplified! Of course like a drug the high wears off (it's only so long before I realize people are annoying me, drivers are so freaking stupid, UTE fans need to get over themselves, and sugar is healthy-WAIT..what??..that wasn't me.) and that is why it is important for me to go often because I am a lot more patient and my outlook on life and people around me are a lot different. I am so grateful there is a place on this earth that I can feel absolute peace of mind. I truly felt so overwhelmed with pure happiness.

One of many things I have learned since I have been endowed~

My Dad never would go to my mom's and/or brother's grave-site. I thought he was just trying to avoid pain or something..but I liked to go because I wanted to feel close to my mom because I miss her so much; but I realized that the temple is the closest place to be to my mom and other loved ones in my family that have passed away. I can feel their spirit and their love. What a great blessing to me to be able to be blessed with the knowledge and better understand of this life and the after life.

Reminder of Forgivness

This incident happened about 3 yrs. ago when I was going to Skyline High School. This Kid (Cameron) who was in my grade who I knew of;I was not friends with him. He was on the football team and liked to party a lot with his friends. The night before prom he changed his life and another man's life forever.

This video is very touching to me, and shows how powerful the atonement is. The gospel really does soften peoples hearts and gives them more of an understanding and enlightenment to ones mind if followed correctly.



I really would be very distraught if anyone took my husbands life..and then to throw children in the picture would be even more troublesome to me. The man (William) talked to the judge and plead for Cameron..(the man who took more than half his family)not to go to prison as an adult, so he would not be their for almost the rest of his life. So instead Cameron only served for about a 1yr and 1/2 in jail. Talk about forgiving someone!~ It is examples like this that make me want to strive hard to be a better person.

Match maker..but NOT really...

For some odd reason I see a person with a "single status" and think oh I need to set them up! This is where I start racking through my brain what guy/girl would suit each other the best. Well I have set many people up on dates and the results are what follows..


JED

&
Kayleen BOM (I thought her last name was bom..because she put herself in my phone under that but that really stands for Book Of Mormon..that is how we met is through our religion class.)

Completely DIFFERENT!..there was NOT a second date with these two.

Well I felt bad that didn't work out so I thought things might go differently with...Ali..

This date resulted as "Just Friends"

MAX

Was set up with this girl I used to work with...
Candice

Both GREAT individuals! Just not so great for each other..

Once again I decided it was worth another shot...I set Max up with one of my best friends...
Melissa

=friends!...I think..I don't believe they have really connected with each other since..

Just this week I set my friend's husbands' brother
Nick..

up with this girl I work with..
Kyra


We had a wonderful time....well I did!We had

, (so yummy), and
up in the canyon! Food was so yummy and the company was so great! I can't help but smile thinking of what a joyous time I had:)
RESULTS~
I think they both felt different toward each other so it might not go anywhere but I thought they were both such talented,cute people:)

I keep thinking I will learn my lesson to stop setting people up BUT one of these times I am going to make love happen! I feel so blessed that I have such a wonderful man and I want everyone else to experience the wonderful joy of having a best friend FOREVER!

Joyful times!

Last Saturday we were planning on going hiking with our friends but.....then we had something better come up..........BOATING! I really don't ever care about being rich but I just ask for enough money for a boat down the road of life!! I have been boating before I could walk..and then we had a family tragity and my Dad sold our boat and house boat in 2007. It was like loosing a family member:( Anyway so when ever we get the chance to go WE GO! We went with my friend and her husband and other people, up to Utah Lake. The water was so choppy it was hard to do much but just being on the boat was a BLAST!!
~After boating we went to Zupas..which is simply delightful to my mouth and tummy!

~We then headed back to our house and played Greed.....(the dice game) After playing that we just looked at each other deciding what to do.........well the boys wanted to be active so they wen outside and did the arm pull (the game Joseph Smith would play with a wooden stick).
(I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO PUT THE VIDEO UP OF THEM DOING THIS BUT IT WON'T LOAD! I HAVE NOT IDEA HOW TO LOAD VIDEOS ON MY BLOG IT JUST WILL NEVER LET ME!! GRRR!!)

~Next was the leg wrestle..
Well once again this is on video and I cannot upload it:( so sad..

~Then they moved back to the house for some wall seating to see who could air sit the longest...Jake won that one..
~Oh don't worry they are not done..now they decided to have a contest to see who could hold their breath the longest..Tay won that one...

~Who can stand on one foot the longest..well it went on for 10min and they both would not budge so I said to start pushing each other to see who would fall to the ground first.

Tay won that one..

NOw they moved it to the floor and did..well I don't know exactly what its called..Tay one this one.. AFter that they were tired so we ended the night with a fun round of skipbo! Oh I love friends they bring so much joy:)


Just this past Sunday we went to this rich girl's farewell in Pepperwood, oh don't worry her last name totally fits her..CASH..yep it fits like glove! Anyway we had a fun tiime hanging out in her rich home, with her rich family, and her richy food! So here are some pics..we had a great time coming up with a bucket list with some other people! I didn't get very many pics but here are a few..










JACK JOHNSON Connert was just so fabulous!

I love his songs..they are just so awesome! We also had great entertainment around us from our friends. I think they got drunk off water..the guys would always be disapearing and coming back with some random girls ha oh they make me laugh..Tay and I just stayed close and watched all our single friends act crazy while we swayed with one another to the voice of Jack Johnson:) how the night was wonderful.


Were only sad because the conneret is almost over!

Amazing skills

This music video is simply a classic.....

I want to be able to dance like them when I grow up!



sometimes at night..Taylor will sing this song to me...so precious.......

wait I think that was me dreaming....

To BE or NOT to be.......

After much deliberation about what career path I should take, whether it be an
interior designer,


event/wedding planner, or a

~teacher; I have always felt since I was a mini person that I would be a teacher and that would be what would suit my personality best. I pretend that my stuffed animals were my students and I would always be getting after them because they just sat there and did not move, lets just say that they didn't get any beans in there cups or stars on their HW. Reflecting on those memories made me think that I really do love children and would love to teach them. Now as far as my future goes...it would be a very ideal job for me after I have children and they are older (as of in school) I can go back to teaching and have the same schedule as them because of course my main job will be raising my children. The only reason why I didn't want to be a teacher is because I wanted to do something unique as my career..you know try and be different like everyone else:) I decided that as long as I like doing it then it doesn't matter if it is UNIQUE.

~ I have been a wedding coordinator and LOVED that job so much! I really enjoyed working on people's happiest day of their lives. Talking about it makes me want to do it again! The down side to being an event planner: I know it would consume a lot of me and my time (I am thinking in the future when I start my family), also it does not require any schooling and I really want to increase my education by getting a degree in the career I would like to go into. I was considering getting my business degree to open my own business but I really don't think that is what I see my self doing because that would require me to stay here in Utah which I don't think Tay and I have planned to be here in Utah for the long run.

~LOVE, LOVE interior design and would do it if I did not have to DRAFT! I took a drafting class and I hated it, especially on the computer!Blah! I have been drawing floor plans on paper, dirt, and with my food since I was young. I was always decorating and rearranging rooms, furniture all time at my Dad's house! BUT...there is a BIG BUT...I really would not care for drafting.

All jobs have up's and down's but the job I see fit best for me is .....
to be teacher. I am all registered for school and will be going to LDSBC until I can transfer to BYU next fall..hopefully:) or Utah State extension school. yay for school and increasing knowledge whoa!
