"Give me a young woman who loves home and family, who reads and ponders the scriptures daily, who has a burning testimony of the Book of Mormon...Give me a young woman who is virtuous and who has maintained her personal purity, who will not settle for less than a temple marriage, and I will give you a young woman who will perform miracles for the Lord now, and throughout eternity." -Ezra Taft Benson

Haven't Blogged in a while!!
Well, I haven't posted anything in a while..but yes I am still alive and hanging on to somewhat of a sense to sanity. Yesterday Dad booked tickets on a flight from Atlanta to Salt Lake City for Him, Brandon and I over spring break. We are driving to Atlanta on March the 10th, so that we will be sure to catch our flight on time out of Atlanta at 6:45AM. We are just going for me to check out the BYU campuses, and I am REALLY EXCITED.

Monday to Monday
This week has felt like an entire week of Mondays. I am so very glad that tomorrow is Friday, and pray that I Won’t have a week as bad as this one was for a long time! There is much to be done today…so I will definitely blog more tomorrow! We have a huge English project video that we are doing, and it should be epic. ♥

Love this...
So I was feeling bad today, and then I found this quote. It makes me smile, everytime :)
"God loves us. He's watching us, he wants us to succeed, and we'll know someday that he has not left one thing undone for the eternal welfare of each of us. If we only knew it, there are heavenly hosts pulling for us -- friends in heaven that we can't rememer now, who yearn for our victory." -Ezra Taft Benson
Buoyancy @ Schlotzskys
Tonight I braved the winter storm to go do a Buoyancy Worksheet for physics class that is due tomorrow with Justin and Cory. Sara was supposed to come, but her mom didnt want her out in the ice. Let me just say, the only thing you get when you add Brittany, Cory, and Justin plus sandwiches and pizza plus a really hard worsheet= epically finished worksheet AND really bad Indian accents....dont know what I would do without them!
The Best Days of My Life? I hope not!
If the High School years are in fact, the best years of your life, kill me now! On days like today I like to tell tmyself its going to get better, not worse!
LAX: Well, we havent had practice the last three practices because of rain, freezingness, and then finally field conditions. (Nice way of saything that the field where we practice is underwater. And our first game is the weekend of the 26th! Hope we are ready!
School: GET ME THE HECK OUT OF HERE!! I am sooo far beyond high school and we still have three more months. Senioritis much? Kaycie and I are counting down the mondays....15 more until graduation :)
Random: Today I learned the story of Zion's Camp in seminary. Doug Watson does an amazing job teaching. I have a new favorite scripture, as of today. It reads :
Ye cannot behold with your natural eyes, for the present time, the design of your God concerning those things which shall come hereafter, and the glory which shall follow after much tribulation. (D&C 58:3)
George Albert Smith also accompanied the Prophet Joseph on the march. When the camp was stricken with cholera, Jesse Smith, George's cousin became ill. He shortly thereafter passed away. George Albert Smith said that he had found a great deal of comfort in this scripture. Through his extreme trail, wondering why he was not taken in Jesse's place, he realized that he didn't see "the design of" his God. The Lord was preserving His prophet. -♥

A few hours later...
I LIVE! My hands may have to me amputated, but I am alive. The car looks amazing, and I doubt a professional could have done any better. So payment is paid, and Brittany is free. :)
Cal is going to be the death of me, I hate that math class. But I'll get through it, I always go. Like I blogged earlier, I finally got my apps into BYU(s). Unfortunately no word back yet! I guess Heavenly Father has more time to play games with my head! ;) We'll see where I end up. I talked to Aunt Jan (my long lost Aunt who lives in Rexburg. Her husband Dale works with campus security!) the other day, and she was an absolute sweetheart. She sounded amazing, and I can't wait to meet her. She said if I wanted she could put in the good word for me into a student secretary position. I still haven't decieded if I want to work during school or not. I don't think I will my freshman year, at least. Finally, its my turn to decide. -♥

Baby its cold outsideeeeeeeee
So, it was a whoping 30 degrees outside. And what you ask, was I doing? I was outside washing the wheels, vacuuming, cleaning windows of my dads car. Why? Because I am an idiot, and I didn't pay my parents a car payment. Dad told me if I did it we would be even on the payment and I could drive the car next week. So I was sorta forced to do it. At least now I can drive next week, and I can do something tonight!! yaaaay!
I was stuck at home last night, and I HAVE to get out and do something before I go insane.
I got my first letter from Bryan today! He is so excited and happy to be in the MTC! He leaves on February 16th for the Peru MTC!!!
LAX is amazing, I am so glad Carol made me sign up. Coach Klementz is awesome and he genuinely loves coaching and really wants to help all the girls. The teams are looking really good this year, and our first game is in Alpharetta GA on the 26th! (:
