This week has been a little crazy! One of my really good friends Jessica got married and I was a brides maid and had a lot to do and try and balance school and work on top of it. But im so happy for her she has been through so much and Im glad she has found and sealed for eternity to Nate. So grateful her and Dyson have someone to take care of them. Her son Dyson is one of my favorite little guys around such a doll I love him so much and want them to be happy.





This week with all of the wedding stuff made me realize how much I love Brett and how I cant wait to be sealed for all eternity to him! He is such a amazing man an I could not think of anyone more perfect for me. There are many things I look forward to when I get married but one of them is the fact that no matter what trial I go through in my life I will have him by my side to work through them together and the Lord of course :) Also to not have to drive home at night and leave him! ah I so wish I could just snuggle him all night, I cant wait until we can stay with each other at night. I love HIM!!





Also this weekend my best friend becky was in town and her birthday was on the 15th so her husband had me help him plan a suprise birthday party. It was so good to see her and spend time with her. This is my little shout out for her. We have been friends since seventh grade and I love this girl so much. She has been a true friend I am honestly so blessed to have her in my life. I often think why I was so blessed to have so many great friends when there are many girls who struggle to find one true friend. I am so blessed and I will be eternally grateful for them, I am who I am today because of the amazing family and friends that I was blessed with.





Emilee one of my other really good friends is moving to Florida, her husband got a wondeful job oppurtunity out there. Im so happy for them but Im going to miss her so much. She is also such a wonderful friend she is one of those firends that doesnt forget anything. Every year on my dads birthday or the day he passed away she will send me flowers or just a sweet message. It means so much to me. Even though years have passed since he passed away It can still be hard on those days it great to know someone still remembers. ah I love her such a great friend. Brett and I went over to Emilees house to watch the BYU vrs UTAH game we wont talk about how the game turned out lol but it was great to spend time with them before they move.

We had one last girls night with emmers and the SC07 (squirrel crew) it was nice to have a night with just us its been forever! We went to dinner in SLC at Stone something or another I cant think of the name it was really yummy! After that we went to the Melting Pot can you say AMAZING!! It was a lot of fun im so sad she is leaving but excited to visit Florida often.

It has been a crazy but exciting week, turned in my graduation application and it was accepted, I have a recruiter from IHC looking for jobs for me with my degree, Brett and I have talked more about Marriage! So many changes and exciting things to look forward to! I Love My Life!!

Fall Begins



























































































Well its that time of the year again, school has stared but its my LAST semester! I cant believe its almost here. I just found out that my job at the hospital they are going to lay off four people because we are dropping our contract with the LTAC (A long term acute care hospital that we go to) meaning that almost half our business will be gone. I told them that I was not planning on staying with dialysis so I didn't want to take the job for someone who was. So whats in store for me ? Again I do not know, we talked about jobs that I could do within the hospital with my degree that I would actually love but I do not want to get my hopes up so until I know for sure ill just keep doing what I am supposed to and I know that it will all work out. I'm so grateful for that to know that I have the spirit of the lord to guide me in ALL things in life as long as I stay worthy:)
Things with Brett and I are amazing! Its crazy how you don't think you couldn't love someone anymore but the more you are with them the deeper your love grows. I know that I am going to marry him crazy right??? I never thought I would get to this point with anyone but its here and I'm so grateful for that! Again I can not express how grateful I am for the Lord and the path he has put me on and the trials that I have been through so that I could be prepared to meet my prince charming. The lord always knows what is best we just have to be patient, which is sometimes the hardest part. So I'm 25 and most of my friends have been married for years and have a couple kids... I used to be so sad that I wasn't at that point, so sick of the dating scene but I wouldn't change it for the world now that I know what and who the lord was preparing me for. That is the honest truth. I have some friends specially my roommates that I cant wait for them to meet that person as well and I know that they will. They are all 25 and 26 and such great women that I know the lord is preparing someone great for them. I just hope that each of them can be patient and wait for that person and no settle for any less. I know at times that I got to the point of thinking I should just settle but I know if we are patient and stay worthy the lord will not lead us astray!
My mom just recently told me that she has Parkinson's disease and also cervical dispenia which is like Parkinson's disease. She has been having problems for the last little while and I really kept thinking it was Parkinson's but she told me it wasn't because she wasn't ready to tell anyone. When she told me this it was really hard for me to hear. She has been through so much, she spent many years of her life taking care of my dad before he past away, always taking care of us kids and never worrying about herself. It kills me that she is in California and I am not close by to help take care of her. I am so grateful that she has Kyle her husband who is wonderful and makes sure she gets what she needs. I'm truly grateful to know that families can be together forever and that one day our bodies will be whole again. I'm so grateful for my family and friends I am so blessed.
