Doggy Hair Cut!

I was given the task of buzzing Bentley and Baileys hair. It was a HUGE mess. I thought Bailey would be the worse to cut. She is such a dork. I was dreading her hair cut. But my goodness! Bentley was wiggling everywhere. He did not like that thing coming anywhere near his neck! When it was Baileys turn, she struggled a bit at first, but she basically took a nap on sages lap while she waited for the hair cut to end. The dog hair was everywhere!!!! I made the mistake of wearing my black sweatpants so I had piles of white hair all over my legs and shirt and arms and face. It was so gross, and it tickled like crazy. It was so crazy, But I had a blast doing it. Even if Bentley looks a little silly now because we couldn't get all the hair off his neck. He's still a cute chubby guy. I love those dogs.

Air Jordan Heels

Alright so my little sister showed me these Nike heels and I think they are pretty intense! I would totally own these and wear them proudly. Nike Air Jordan heels... could it get any better than that? lol Men love there basketball shoes and now I can love mine in style. lol No joke these things are rockin it. I totally want them. I NEED THEM!! lol

Nauvoo

One thing I really miss about Nauvoo is the temple. Its so beautiful. Its something I look forward to seeing every time I come home! I love it. It makes me happy, and its what makes me feel truly at home whenever I am in Nauvoo. 
I guess every temple makes you feel that way no matter where you are. I just know this temple really well. Its the one I grew up with. Its the first temple I have ever gone into. Its special to me. So it makes Nauvoo special to me too.
I'm glad to be home for a bit! But I cant wait to continue my adventures in Utah too. I'm hoping I can make another place feel just as special. :) I'm pretty sure I can. So far life has even been pretty special. I guess I can't wait to see what I make of my life.

Easter Fun

So this easter I have spent a lot of time with my family and Marcus and his family.

Sage, Conner and I all went over to our aunt and uncles to watch there kids and help them decorate eggs for easter. Which was a blast. We even got all creative and melted wax over the tops of some of them. It was really neat. Conner colored an egg gold and put it in the chicken coop, and then gabby went out side to collect the eggs from the coop for her mom and found that one of the chickens had laid a golden egg. She was pretty excited. they all were. it was so funny. 

  I also decorated eggs with Sage and Conner at Tracy's and Steve's. Easter eggs are so fun! I seriously dont think you could ever be too old to decorate an egg. :)

Saturday our family all went over to Lee and Trish's house for a little family lunch and early birthday party for Gabby and Trisha. all the kids got to hunt for easter eggs. Even all us big kids got to run around and find easter eggs. They even tied an egg to a chicken and had us chase it down. pretty fun stuff. 

Right after that I went over to Marcus' house and spent some time with his family. We decorated some eggs and took some fun crazy pictures of our amazing easter spirit!
Sunday the day of Easter, Marcus  picked me up for church! I love going to church with him and his family. :)  Marcus gave an amazing talk in sacrament! He said there was a lot he wanted to say and couldn't quite get it all out. I thought it was just what it needed to be. I really enjoyed listening to him. I always do. He can really teach me a lot. I don't think he even realizes how much he teaches me! I love being with him.

After church we went to his house and we all took an easter picture together. Then eventually made our way to a missionary farewell party for a guy in their ward. There was some yummy food there! :) I got to spend the whole day with Marcus. I'd have to say that it was the best kind of day! And a great easter.

Catching up

So I am way behind in blogging! Tons has happened in the past few months and most people dont even know the slightest of whats going on in my life. Allow me to shed some light on the matter. As you know, I am living in cedar city with sage for the next month and a half. Cedar is a pretty lonely place but I have been running a lot and have come to love the view of the area we live in. I have even met a few people in my ward here in cedar. Super nice people. I even helped out in primary class a bit ago. It was a ton of fun being with the little ones and being able to help out. I have never gone to a singles ward but I have met someone who is AMAZING. His name is Marcus and he is wonderful. My amazing aunt Tracy actually is the one to thank! She had us add each other on facebook and had told us about each other so it was up to us to actually commit to meeting. Which we did and it was absolutely fantastic. He lives in Grantsville. He served a mission in Canada and has been back for about 6 months. We met for the first time on our first date together. He is such a gentleman. very fun to be with. simply amazing. and 6 foot 10 inches tall. :)
We are now actually dating. Yes, I know I have kept a lot of people out of the loop. haha I've just been running around with him getting to know him and we've been having a great time together. He treats me like a princess and I am very happy I met him.
I am also moving to grantsville to do my CNA courses (which I need to get all registered for! I've been slacking.) I'll be living with Tracy and Steve while i do that. because they are amazing and so very willing to let me stay. they are such a blessing! my whole family is such a blessing. they all have helped me so much. it has been amazing.
So this summer I will be hopefully doing some Nursing. have a job somewhere. I guess we will see what happens. I'm praying for the best to happen, faithful it will happen how it should as long as I do my best. :)
Right now my plans before the summer are, Drive to Nauvoo with my Grandparents, Sage and Maxx. (which I am currently doing right now.. im at the days inn motel). Get my braces off in Nauvoo, Drive my car back to grantsville with sage. Pick up my cousin Kaylea and drive to California to watch my uncle Davids kids for about a week. Drive all the way back to grantsville spend a week there celebrating mine and marcus' birthdays. Drive to Cedar City to pack up my things officially. Then move in to my aunt and uncles house. :)  HUGE adventure! BIGGEST ROAD TRIP EVER!! lol it should be a lot of fun.
well i know this post isn't much. I just wanted to get all caught up. the rest of my blogs will be more specific. I have things about easter and i'll blog about my trips in more detail as they happen. SO until then... Ta Ta For Now. :)
