I forgot how MUCH i LOVE this place. I went there today for the first time in awhile to do Baptisms. I need to go more often. That's my new goal. Nothing can compare to the Temple or the feeling of joy it gives you. This beautiful place is my ultimate goal.

the better life. summer 2011. also the end of senior yearrrr

This post has been put off for about 2 1/2 months. So here we go. Here are the highlights since then

Seminary Graduation Brooke Merrill did an awesome job of conducting, those of you that were there know what i mean. I sang with a few girls from madrigals and it turned out really well.

High School Graduation I drove on over to the Burns Arena with Lexie and Mads, my two best friends. It was definitely tear jerking. Although we forgot to pick up Mads. Don't worry, we remembered her. On our way there we told some good ole memories. I know, very cheesy, but it fit the moment. I was able to sit two seats away from mads at grad. Suprisingly i didn't cry. But i did it, i graduated from Snow Canyon High School. It was not easy, it was so tough. But i learned many lessons and made some amazing friends.

Peacock On our way back down to St. George we stopped at the petting zoo and of course they had a peacock. For those of you that don't know peacocks are my biggest fear. I screamed as soon as i saw it. My goal is to touch one, so my dad pushed me over to it. I couldn't reach it so i began to chase, this lasted about twenty minutes. I was never able to get to it but i was proud of myself nonetheless.

The beautiful rainbow

Look how close i am!!

Move I recently moved in with my brother Kimball here in St. George. It's nice to live on my own but lonely at times.
