Camping with the Hubby.

Another Missionary!!!!!!


Well It is here again. Another brother on a mission. I didnt think that Devin would ever be old enough to go on a mission. I mean for heaven sake he is my little brother. They are not supposed to grow up. I am actually so excited for him. He is going to Tulsa Oklahoma. I didnt think that I would be as sad as I was when he left. He and I never really got along. Actually we did, but man did we know how to fight and be really ruthless to eachother. I love the kid so much and am so proud of him for making the right decision. I am actually really jelous of him, due to the fact that he is going to be so blessed and many other wonderful experiences are just a minute away. The new system and the MTC is brutal by the way. It is a good thing but it is like tearing a band-aid off super fast. Painful but fast. We got out of the car and they told us we had thirty seconds for our good byes. I had time for a picture and then I turned around to give him a hug and they had taken him away. My mom and I had our little breakdown in the car. It is rough saying goodbye to the bro for two years. Good thing I have a lot to keep me occupied.

Catch Up!

So just a little catch up since I have been so busy and have not been able to update my blog.
1st off, I found out that I was accepted to the Nursing program at UVU. I had been so nervous to apply because of the fear of being regected. I finally over came my fears and finally got the grades I needed. I applied and who would have guessed but I finally accomplished a pretty big goal. My dad always used to tell me that those who gave up got no where in life and he was right. I am so glad that I didnt give up because I am finally going to be able to start doing something that I have wanted to do all my life and I will be able to get out of a dead end job. Just before my dad died I promised him that I would accomplish this goal and I finally feel like I can be proud of myself. Not just for my dad, but for myself and my wonderful husband who has been so supportive through this whole process and how horrible I become when I am stressed because I want to get the best possible grades. Yay for the next two years.
