Time Flies

My brother gets home two months from today!

I can't believe it.

He has been serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints for nearly two years now.

It's a long time, but it really does go by surprisingly fast.  

Thinking of how quickly time passes reminded me of this song 

Life goes by so quickly.

I've been thinking a lot about this lately as I was looking at some old pictures from growing up.

It was also on my mind as I got news of a girl my age 

from my High School who passed away about a week ago. 

Life is short.

Holy cow, it really is.

It's comforting to know that no matter what trials we go through in this life, they will be over shortly.

It's also important to enjoy the great things in our lives as well,

 because they might not be with us for long as we hope.

But no matter how short life is, one thing is with us forever (if we keep our covenants) and that's our family.

God is good.

Life is short.

Live it to the fullest.

Do more of what makes you happy, and do it today. 

You never know what tomorrow will bring.

My nephew and neice are cuter than yours.

Are you ready for a cuteness overload?





I love these two little guys with all my heart.
They bring me so much joy.
I can't even imagine how great motherhood will be if being an Aunt is so great.

November 1

Today was obviously, the first day of November.
It sure came in with a bang! It was cold and rainy all day and snowed in the Mountains.
The best part of today though was devotional.
President Thomas S. Monson came and spoke to us!
It was awesome :)
I love the fact that he took the time out of his busy life to come speak to US at BYU.
I'm so glad for a living prophet who guides our church today just like Noah, Adam, or Moses did in their day.
It was great.
And he quoted the Lion King which was awesome.



Also.. it is my little brother's birthday! Happy birthday, Steve! Love you little brudder

My cousin, Me, and Steve :)

Halloween Weekend 2011

Halloween is always so fun! 

I love it.
I went to a Halloween Dance by BYUSA, watched a few scary movies, ate candy, dressed up, and went home for Pumpkin Carving and yummy food

It was a great Halloween. :)

I decided to be a nerd... I didn't even need a costume ;)

Just bein myself... 

Love this girl. 

I love Bjork's Flapper Girl costume. It was awesome. 

Love. 

Pumpkin Carving with the whole family! So fun (Plus cousin Natashua) 

As much as I love Halloween, I'm always ready to see it go because now it means the official full blown holiday season is officially begun ( even if I started listening to Christmas Music a while ago....)

I love Christmas.
Michael Buble came out with a new Christmas Album today.
Pretty sure my life is complete and it's the greatest thing ever
Go listen to it.

Nature Walk in Provo Canyon

Today we went on a Nature Walk in Provo Canyon and it was so fun!
The weather was perfect, it was a BEAUTIFUL Fall day.
And we met new friends.. mostly mountain goats.

Mountain Goats! So Cool! We were super close to them 

Heather and I climbed up here this summer! This is our victory picture.
