I am beyond grateful for everything that has happened this Summer. It has been one I will surly never forget and.. its only been one month! But this past month has been SO busy. {By choice of course. I LOVE being busy} I LOVE what a wonderful family I have and such an incredible group of friends I have, and all the fun, and crazy things we do together.
So. Since I have neglected my blog thus far I will give a quick update:
First.. the Coast to Coast trip ended in Success. I wish I was back stuffed in that little car right now :) I loved everything that we were able to see and the incredible people I was with and met!
On that note traveling is so neat. You get to experience all these news things and learn so much about different places and people. It certainly is a mind opener. I have the traveling bug in me SO bad! I have this dream of just getting married and traveling for a year. Just living super cheap and going EVERYWHERE! Aw. Such a cool thing!
Secondly: On a daily basis I have been doing so many fun things. If I don't say it enough, I have the GREATEST friend on the planet. I seriously just love them with all my little heart. So since I have been back, I have been spending these lovely hot summer days with them in my presence.
We all went to visit our dear friend Stephen! I can not explain in words what an example and wonderful person Stephen is! He has stayed so strong and has kept such a high spirit through these hard times. He is truly such a light in the lives of all those who know him. He is already such an incredible person and I know as he continues to recover he will just become more AMAZING.
I just LOVE this girl. I have had my dear Kenny by my side for the past month and I LOVE every second I am with her. I can't even describe how much fun McKenzie and I have together. I can be in the most serious mood, or insanely hyper and no matter what we have so much fun! She has been in Washington the past 4 days and I don't know what to do with myself. I am SO lucky to have her as my BESTEST FRIEND. {Oh.. and we just started a little company making and selling hair flowers.. You all should buy some. Support our college education fund. hA.}
Okay sorry. I will stop writing so much about how much I LOVE people, cause I could go on forever...
So I will try and be "Short and Sweet"
YEAH. For Pizza and Pasta at Midnight.
Cooking lessons. :) Delicious.
The most INCREDIBLE people in the world! Gah. How can you not love them!?
Sleeping in the Public Park. Fun Stuff.
Having Lunch.
{Really quick.. Can I just say that I have only been in Arizona 19 days and I am pretty sure I have eaten out at least 25 times.. Something is wrong with that. I am going to get FAT and be BROKE. So.. New goal... No more eating out.}
Getting Pedicures.
Well.. Lets just say I have done TONS of fun things. We are always doing something. Thus it has surly been a fun summer so far, not boring one bit to say the least.
Third Matter of Business: Well this probably did not come as a shocker for many, but I converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It was probably one of the hardest decisions I have had to make in regards to dealing with my family, but I could not be more grateful for the church and all the blessings I have received through it. It is a wonderful thing.
{a few of the people in attendance}
I was certainly overwhelmed by the generous number of people who attended my baptism and made the day wonderful. I am beyond grateful.
Finally: Welp. That pretty much sums up what I have been up too. I am LOVING every second of summer and am VERY VERY HAPPY. I can't get over how wonderful life is. :) YAY.
Oh.. and Happy Fathers day!!
I am so blessed to have such a wonderful father. He is AMAZING.
Toot-a-loo :)
