my heart will go on

maybe....

what do you not see in these pictures?

yeah, no celine...I was debating if i should even blog about this trip cause of how excited i was

got an email a few days before the trip saying she has cancelled all her show until June 18th

we did get refunded for the tickets, but still. such a letdown

buuut we still went! we still wanted a trip and we were still excited

it was a total blast and we still made the most out of the trip

we are still wanting to go in june when she comes back though

natalie, from st george, came and met up with us for the day 

we ate, shopped, vegged, went to the wax museum....which i totally loved! then we went to another show

i'm glad we still went, i always love a good roadtrip, especially with chara! 

thanks filthy vegas for entertaining us, and thank you celine for breaking our hearts. you should be thankful you still have us as fans 

sweet moments

my dad, carson and i went to the temple and it was just one of those moments i am forever going to treasure

i loved so much having my dad baptize and confirm me, even though he started the confirmation calling me brother weidner hahaha i am just one of the sons now

it was a very tender experience and i am so glad we were all able to go together, it was nice being with them there cause usually our times dont work out together

i love the temple and i love going on a slow afternoon when you really have time to ponder and get some answers

 i feel guilty having them so close sometimes, gotta take advantage!

my favorite part....we got there right as a group was going in and in the chapel carson says out loud, ugh dad this is going to take hours!!! the temple lady felt so bad that she let us go ahead and get in first :) i am so glad carson loves going just as much. 

mushy

thankful for a lot of dear girls in my life, but tonight these ones are taking the spotlight
sounds cheesy but tonight is just one of those nights
i am thankful that they get me through my rough patches
they put up with my crazy self
i am thankful that they are patient with me
thankful that i have been friends with them for years
love the advice they give me
they have taught me what real friends are
thankful for the sweet texts i randomly get
i do not like that most of them are far away, but its only that much better when i see them
i am so thankful i get to see celeste and megan in 2 weeks. my heart skips a beat when i think of it

thankful for these girls, the fun spirits that they have
i love this calling so much and that i get to see these girls all the time
i learn so much from them and love being crazy with them

thankful for a good life and learning experiences everyday

gooood weekend

a little trip to st george is exactly what I needed

it was so good, I loved it

we did a lot of eating

so much shopping

great company

awesome conversations

fun drive with chara

naps

a good movie 

good weather

just the typed of weekend I needed :) 

I love knowing that is where celeste will be serving. I can not wait 

guilty, very guilty

ever have those very rotten bad days?

then your husband/boyfriend calls and you take it out on them and don't even notice??

I was so guilty of this just yesterday...

starting this new job has sure been quite the challenge for me and trying to get the hang of it all

well I was having a very bad day and everything else was just going wrong

well...poor richy calls just after my little melt down. I hung up and seriously felt so bad cause I knew my tone said it all, so I hurried and drove home to go say sorry. and what do I come home to?

just him with a bouquet of flowers waiting for me with a huge smile on his face like nothing even happened.
and that is why I am thankful to be dating someone that is the opposite of me

I am so grateful for the simple things that just make the days go a little smoother :) 

stoked

for celine!!! 

yes, I have always wanted to see her shows

people always say how good it is

so.. much to my surprise a girl at my work had them and couldn't go so she gave me a discount to buy them

I called up chara and bought them right then and there

yes, we might be the youngest ones there but we are sure giddy 

and it was perfect cause it falls right on chara's birthday so it worked out great!

there are so many shows I want to see in vegas, so hopefully this is the year to do it!

bring on celine!!!

2012?

Wow....another year has started and another month has almost passed...I am sure behind!

With this new job I don't sit on the computer as much to update. I miss my blogging. 

So I am finally getting around to new years eve! It was a blast. We went to Richy's sisters house to pig out on delicious food and played games with his fam, I love hanging out with them.

I always love reflecting on the past year and what all happened and how it all happened...I had some of my hardest trials and some of my happiest moments. It's funny how after a hard trial hits heavenly father always throws something good in the mix to keep us going. At least that's how it feels to me...maybe funny isn't the best word, but I have noticed that's what happens. And that's why I can't complain so much cause he gives me so many other amazing things to put my focus on. 

Who knew I would be dating one of my best friends that I grew up with at the end of the year? I sure as heck didn't see that coming, and he came just perfect timing. He has been my biggest supporter and has held my hand through everything. He is an absolute sweetheart and I am so thankful for the experiences I have had with him. I hope I didn't just jinx myself haha. 

I am so excited to start this new year with my new goals. It is so refreshing having a new start and I am actually motivated this time! So I am pretty excited :) 

Just a few highlights from the last year to put down....

-Got a new car

-Rob left on his mission

-Was able to go to Canada twice!

-Had Celeste down for conference 

-Got a new job, it was hard leaving my last one

-Super fun trip to Vegas with the friends

-Had a tough break up and was rewarded with an amazing guy. It's true, they only get better!

-Some road trips to Vernal and lots of time with Chara

-Went to Disneyland!! With some of my most favorite people

-Thanksgiving with the friends then another one with the fam

-The second annual ugly sweater party 

-Got a calling to be the laurel adviser and I absolutely love it!

It was a great year indeed! I have learned and grown so much and am so thankful to where I am at now. It is where I have worked my butt off to be. I am so blessed and amazed at what a year can bring. Life is such a journey and a roller coaster like they say, but that's what keeps us on our toes. 

I caught myself a few times saying...I miss roommates, going to school, having single friends, living on my own, going to a singles ward, doing whatever I want, etc. But as I keep growing up and looking at my life now, it is just where I need to be. It is all just the joys of growing up and going after new goals and dreams. I never ever thought I would be dating Richy, living at home, that I wouldn't be doing hair, that I would be a laurel adviser! It is just crazy to think about. I am thankful for where heavenly father has put me and things I get to experience. When I first got my calling it was the scariest thing ever, and I felt like I was just in there last week. It has been quite the journey but I have loved getting to know the girls. 

Anywhoo...just my random thoughts on the new year. I'm sure it all makes better sense in my head, but there it is!
