Life is soooooooo good.

I found my blog again!

I don't think anyone even checks here, but if they do, WELCOME and I'm sorry! I am REALLY bad at updating this thing, but here's to being more vigilant! Random pics I love from my life recently....

Love this bunch of girls. For reals though.

They're pretty neat, I guess.

Ummm... THIS WAS DELICIOUS.

Sometimes, times like this happen.

My freaking sister.

Soooo, my niece can "whistle."

Me and Jeff are total white trash sometimes.

But really though.

We're cool.

And so are we... =)

I MISS THIS GIRL.

I love this game. It's kinda bad. I'm a closet Mario Kart geek.

So, I love this chick..... and snowcones.... =)

This needs no words. I miss this!

Little quitter. Deep meaning. Ask me the story if you truly care to know.

This happened. Nbd.

Lagoon with these geeks.

Danny's first experience!

I'm pretty skilled.

My motto. (I have a lot.)

Again, these girls are like family to me!

Boring, I know. (Although, major props to my cousin, Kim, for making me look this good!)

Couple trips to Mexicali have made my life EXCITING!!

And lastly, TRUTH.

~*~*~*~*DiSnEyLaNd*~*~*~*~

So I went to Disneyland for three days and it was pretty much a BLAST!!! I kinda had to pay my way there which was the worst part... (yeah, I guess I didn't quite realize HOW much money it takes to make dreams come true.) But other than that, this trip has been just what I needed. I went with Sarah, Mike, Bryce, Lizzie, and little Madi!!
Ride there:The ride was reaaaaaaallllllllllllly long, but totally worth it. DISCLAIMER: Madi is the only one who didn't complain about my picture-taking, therefore, she is in most the pictures... which was kinda fun... =)


Sarah still looking great in Cedar City. =)


So I sat next to Madi and she was ADORABLE.. beside when she screams for food... I guess we all want to do that sometimes... =)


Apparently they stopped traffic while we were passing through Arizona... Not the nicest thing to come in between me ans the happiest place on Earth. =P


Bryce decided after stopping at a gas station to fill up, that he wanted Lizzie to got to the back of the car and he told her well, not in the nicest way. So she did one of her super ninja moves and back kicked his 64 oz Mt. Dew back and spilled it. Everywhere. Yeah, he had to buy a new one. Lizzie did feel incredibly bad and ninja-like. =/

Once we got to the hotel we decided to go swimming. But Lizzie was still on a ninja streak. While we were in the water she spun around to talk to me right as Bryce was going a billion mph underwater and she gave him a nice big ol' bloddy nose. Again, Lizzie felit terribly bad and ninja-like. Thus ending swimming for the day.


Yep, that is a pink tu-tu swimming suit!! =)

Day 1:That morning we woke up and headed to DISNEYLAND!


The sign that welcomes me.


We went on Thuder Moutian which is where we took this picture.


An adorable outfit that one of Mike's Sisters made for Madi. =)


Bryce at the castle for the first time.


The Robbins family in a tea cup.


Bummer. Matterhorn was under construction. =P


We got to watched the flag retiring! Coolest thing. =)


So at the end of the day, Lizzie and I sat across from the ball in Tomorrowland tending Madi and I swear that ball is like a guy magnet. Guy after guy would come up and just touch it. Some girls did, buit mostly guys... hahaha!

Day 2: California Adventure!


I finally went on Tower of Terror.


I saw Sully! =)


Bryce in front of Boo's door.

Day 3: Back and forth and back and forth and back and forth between the two parks.


YUM! Corn dogs... =)


It was soooooo beatiful there!! =)


The Columbia!


Goodbye Disneyland. =(

Ride Home:


Hello Cheeburger Cheeburger.


Guess who ate the pounder?!

I am so grateful to all those who made this possible!! Thanks! Grateful to be back home! =)

Lucky to have the Temple.

Whenever I am going home from any particular place I just naturally just pick out the direction I am going. I always anxiously wait to arrive the place that I absolutley love. I love my home. What can I say, I'm a home body. There is just something special about going home to it. It is a place where I can meditate, work, play, sleep, eat, and just be. Also knowing that I have a family that I love and loves me definately helps the fact of this love. So when I look toward my house from the car, I am excited to go home. Excited. Every time I look toward to direction I am headed, I see the temple because I live so close to the temple. I am excited and I have peace. That is where I'm headed. This is where I am going. This is my goal, my destination. The place I want to be. Home can be a heaven on Earth. The Temple IS a heaven on Earth where I am filled with love. My EVERYTHING. I am going home to the temple. Eternal families are sealed here. Young couples in love are married here. Youth and others go here to do the work of the dead and to recieve inspiration, love, and peace. I'm going. Going there. This is what I LOVE. <3

Hello. I am back.

I think I am going to try to be more dedicated to writing on my blog. So, I got a new camera for Christmas so perhaps I can upload a few more pictures... =)



Yeah, we have fun.



We got to talk to Sam on Skype and we hooked up the laptop to the TV with an HDMI cord so here is a picture of a TV of a Computer Screen of Sam on Skype.



Adorable Christmas outfit. =)



Our Christmas tree!



Adorable.
