Attitude of gratitude!



So my cute friend Krista got this idea from a blog to say thanks to a few people for following their blog. She then thanked me on her blog so here I am passing on the torch of gratitude. Here is a special thanks to my cute friends who actually read what I have to say sometimes. Not in order of importance and I didn't tag you if someone else did sorry!

1. Chris and Angela: our friends from Snow

2. Mindee: my cute sister and my brother (she looks more related to me than he does)

Nearing the end...

So finals will be over soon and we will be moving. A special thanks to my amazing family who will be helping us move. We are moving on Friday and my momma is coming up tomorrow with my aunt Chris to help pack and clean. Then my other mom and dad are coming with all the boys to help pack up. They have been so great especially Jer for helping us look for apartments and packing up without even a question. So we are almost done only 2 more finals tomorrow for me and 2 for Jake this week. But on a side note I have to tell you what I have been doing on my free time, or the time I should be studying but I am not, I have been obsessed with the band Paramore especially since Jake got me their cd for my birthday so you have to see these videos and listen to her amazing voice.

and my favorite song

I understand if you don't really care for their music because I usually don't like punk but I love her voice. Jake is determined that we play some songs like this and I sing. Probably not I will just have to dye my hair.

Well that is all. Just thought I would add a little something on her since we may not have the internet for a while. Oh yeah any suggestions for cheap internet? We have to get it installed in our new apartment. BYE!!! :)

Nearing the end...



So we are nearing finals, no more class, and moving out of Logan. I am a little mixed on my feelings. I came with a smile to Logan but really didn't want to but I was being supportive. I still don't love Logan but I have come more and more fond of it and Utah State. I told my FACS teacher the other day that I was moving back to Provo and BYU and she was so sad to see me go. I love that about here is that since I am in the program now all my teachers know me (except my crazy chem teacher). It feels good that we are moving back and I know it is the best thing but you know when you just finally get settled in even if you don't absolutely love something it is hard to move. Jake and I laugh and just say this was our little trip to Logan. Not the best vacation spot but there are definitely some things we have learned. I have enjoyed having more time to my husband. I have learned that Jake is so great at schoolwork and he is so much more determined than I ever thought. We have become closer by going to the temple more...sticking to my goal! I have worked out more because I work late nights at work and so when the girls go to bed I do some exercises. I have been working at this crazy job which I would have never gotten if we didn't move which drains me and then lifts my spirits and wants me to be better each time I am with those amazing girls. I have been inspired by Sarah who has some disabilities but she still goes to the temple for at least 6 hours a day 4 days a week. Ardis who is such a sweetheart and Spring who's laugh makes me crack up. I have learned so much from the Institute class that Jake and I are taking and how great it is to go back to the place where we first met...well it isn't Snow though. It will be hard to leave but I can't wait to be close to friends and family again also all the new opportunities that will come into our lives.

YAY...



I am so excited for this weekend. We are going to dinner with all the family for Jake and Missy's birthday at Red Lobster. We will probably do some shopping after and maybe stop by the mission reunion. Then we have conference all weekend. I am really curious how it is going to be since all the hard times and divorce rates going up and every body is struggling. Then I am going to girl's night at Deseret Book with my mom and sisters while Jake goes to priesthood. I am so excited and then my dad is making breakfast on Sunday with all the family. Life doesn't get much better than my dad's breakfast. Well that is all oh but I just have 2 more tests before we leave! Oh well we are almost to freedom!

April Fools Day

Well I thought about doing some pretty funny april fools day jokes but what would I say...I am pregnant? No that one has gone around about me before. I am moving to Nebraska...no because we are moving (not Nebraska) and so they wouldn't believe me so I figured I would just put up some jokes or tricks so here you go. Happy April Fool's Day!

Q: Why did Frosty the Snowman want a divorce?

A: He thought his wife was a flake.


Yo mamma's so fat, she tripped on 4th Avenue and landed on 12th.

Yo mama's so ugly, she made a blind kid cry.

A blonde wanted to sell her car, but couldn't find any buyers. She called her friend for advice, and her friend asked her how many miles she had on her car.
"235,000 miles." Her friend told her that was the problem. But the blonde's friend told her that her brother is a mechanic and could put back the miles to whatever she wanted. So the blonde went to the mechanic and told him to put the miles at 40,000. Two days later the blond's friend asked her if she sold the car since her brother dropped the miles. The blonde told her, "Why would I sell the car? There are only 40,000 miles on it!"


Hope you had a good laugh...have a good day! :)
