.: Indexing and such:.

So as my wonderful friend pointed out, I haven't posted in a while... Well I think that is mostly due to the fact that I am busy with all of my mission preparations.

I went through the temple on July 16! It was a beautiful day. I was pretty overwhelmed with it all, but I have been back a couple of times since and I am feeling much better! I love the peace that comes with being in the House of the Lord. It's amazing!

I also went camping with my awesome ward. I am really gonna miss them when I leave. I really feel like they are all my family. I am worried that I will have struggles with home sickness. But I know that as I immerse myself in the work that I will get lost in it and forget about myself and just serve.

Tonight I went to an indexing party with some of the coolest people in my ward. ha!
If you haven't indexed before I suggest you try. It's can be difficult to read the handwriting sometimes, but it is pretty fun. I am thoroughly convinced that cursive handwriting is of the devil! ** Note to self: never write anything in cursive if I want my posterity to be able to read what I am writing!(on the other hand maybe I don't want them to be able to read all of my secrets... they might not like what they find. jk)

Well I am off to bed. I am heading to my 5 year reunion next weekend... AHH!! Am I really That old? haha! I am excited to see some old friends. I am also hoping to get to the Logan temple while I am there..

.Looking Back:.

Remember this post?


I can't believe that just one short year ago I was sitting in a hospital bed.



Oh how my life has changed since!!



I am so grateful everyday for that experience.
I wouldn't change it for the world.
I am so grateful for a Heavenly Father who will kick me in the butt when needed and tell me to get back to what's really important.
I am so grateful for the Atonement of Jesus Christ that has healed me more times that I can count.
(physically, emotionally, spiritually!)
I am so grateful to be alive!
I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a missionary.
To share what I know with others.
I am so grateful for my family and friends who are always so supportive of me!




Today especially I am thankful for AMERICA!


GOD BLESS!
