Sometimes in life we feel stuck, as though our lives are not going anywhere. That's how I feel right now. I feel like I'm ready for a change - a big one! I'm just not sure what that change is!

I think during times like these it's helpful to look back on the past at all of the amazing things that you've accomplished. So that's what this post is, a reminder to myself that I am progressing in life and that I'm not leading a stagnant life with no direction.

Since I've graduated high school...
I moved away from my parents house.
I graduated from BYU-Idaho with me A.S. degree in general studies with an emphasis in early childhood education.
I moved down to Hawaii and studied international studies at BYU-Hawaii.
I moved back to Idaho and am now 3/4 done with my bachelors degree in child development.
I've made so many amazing friends along the way. And I'm so grateful for the experiences that I've had.

Praying for Snow

Today just seems to be a posting day!

I've had a few really cool experiences this semester that I need to write down before I forget them. I am taking a sewing class from an amazing lady. She has some of the neatest stories and experiences that have really helped to strengthen my testimony.

One is involving the earthquake in Japan and the nuclear reactors. After everything those poor people had been through they had to face horrible weather conditions. My teacher has a brother who works with nuclear reactors here in the U.S. He told her that the snow and rain that Japan was getting was the only thing preventing the nuclear reactors from going into a complete meltdown (or whatever it's called when people would have started dying from it). He told her to pray for snow. Sometimes the things we think are the worst possible things that could happen are the things that are keeping us alive. I am so glad that we have a Heavenly Father who knows what He is doing.

Home!

I'm going home this weekend!

Oh how I wish that I was going home for good.
But...just the weekend for Spencer's high school graduation.
I can't believe that one of my baby brothers is graduating high school! He'll be coming to college out here in the fall! That's just scary!

Only a month and a half until I get to move back home though! 6 weeks. 46 days. So exciting!
