future meet blog, blog meet your future.


Last week for fall break me and Lindsey went with Holly and her family up to Provo to stay for a few days at their Grandpa's house. I was really excited to go, because i am planning on going to an esthetician school there after i graduate, and i hadn't even been there to see it or anything. So i jumped on the chance to go!  






(some random boys we passed gave us this. haha.. too bad they were creepy)

Needless to say, we had a great time! Obviously, my favorite part was taking a tour at Acaydia and seeing where i will be going to school in just 10 short months! We spent most of our nights over visiting BYU pretending to be cool college kids. We also rode bikes around in the amazing weather and scenery, and went to Salt Lake and did a little shopping at City Creek and went to Temple Square. We ate at Ripple's which was mind-blowing (if any of you have seen that seminary video than you understand), and not to mention going to our first college party! with many more to come :)

What I loved most about it was just simply being there. I loved the feeling of it and knowing that this will be my home pretty soon! there were a few times i would think about it and start hyperventilating, but in the end i know that it is exactly the right place for me and i can't wait for the opportunities and adventure it holds for me. 

See you soon Provo! Don't have too much fun without me!

General Conference with Ma and Pa at the cabin

(we could never get a good picture with our eyes open!!)

The cabin is seriously the best place to watch General Conference. So relaxing, and totally cut off from every day life. Its just you, the trees, the hammock, the cinnamon rolls, and the amazing prophet and leaders of our church. This year was a little different though, because normally for conference we take up the whole family to the cabin to watch, but with the new babies and everyone's different schedules it turned out just being me, and the parents. Now some teenagers might think that being stuck in a cabin in the forest with your parents is a nightmare. But not me! it was perfect! With school in full swing and my busy teenage life this was just what i needed. I'm always in need of a spiritual pick-me-up :)
