To New Beginnings

Over the past few months I have truly been blessed. I (like everyone) have had my downs and ups. Yes I know thats backwards but the ups in this story are more important. I have learned the hard way that things I expected to work out ended up not working like I though. I found myself being upset and angry by the outcome of the situation. I now that more blessings came out of that experience and I am so grateful for my amazing friends and family who are always there for me when I need them the most. I now know why things did not work out the way I was wanting them to. The big man had better things in store for me and for that I am so grateful. I absolutely love the quote " Everything happens for a reason, just believe." I have learned to live my life around this quote even though at times it is hard, I remember the ones who love me and will always be there for me. The other night I was able to spend a couple hours with my amazing friend Emily and her husband Brett. I remembered the good old days when Emily and I had the world in our hands and every now and then would want to give up and talk about moving away to Utah. One night Em and I went to the movies and when were sitting there waiting for the movie to start, these two older ladies walked in and Em and I looked at each other and laughed. Not only because they were the cutest old ladies and they were matching but because we both were like "One day that will be us." To look now and see where we both are, I can't help but be grateful for our friendship and know that I will always be there for her and vice versa. Emily I love you and you are going to make a great mom and Brett is going to make an amazing dad. I love you both. I am so thankful for my amazing mother and the great advice she has always and will always continue to give me. I don't know where I would be with out her. The same goes for my sister Cori. She is my best friend! I am so excited for her Brett and little miss Henli to visit next weekend. Well I love you all!

Clear Creek and much more!

I am probably the worst blogger ever!!! I NEVER blog! Sorry but this summer has been so crazy!! Anywho, this past weekend a big group of us went up to Clear Creek by Winslow to go cliff diving! It was such a blast! We had a great group turn out and a lot of fun! It was a three hour drive there and back so in all a six hour drive! My car for sure had the funnest people in it! I was the designated picture taker and took pictures of every one jumping. It was such a good day and spending it with my friends made it that much better! Here are some pictures from the trip.

So other news is that my mom and I are going back to Missouri for a week to see Cori Brett and sweet baby Henli. Man she grows so much every day and I love the pictures that Cori sends us everyday. I can't to hold her again and spend my whole day just holding her and napping with her!!! Here are some close ups of baby Henli!

She is here!!!!

Where To Begin...

So many fun and exciting things have happened in the last week! First off my baby brother Ethan Graduated from Mountain View High School! I am so proud of him and he has a bright future ahead of him. Congrats little bro I love you and look forward to see what amazing gifts and talents you are going to share with the world! So all of my family came into town for the graduation! My dad and his wife Ann and all my sisters! We stayed in Scottsdale at my older brothers girlfriends dads house( you get all that haha). We swam and had a blast just hanging out and spending time with each other. The 2nd most exciting thing that happened was that my dad and my self and my brothers girlfriend Jackie got to go to game 6! 9 rows from the court! It was so much fun even though we lost, we still had a blast. It was sad to see everyone leave on Sunday but I am so grateful for the time we got to spend together! Here are some pictures of the weekend!
