Happy Easters

“In our hour of deepest sorrow, we can receive profound peace from the words of the angel that first Easter morning: ‘He is not here: for He is risen.’”

-President Thomas S. Monson

I'm so thankful for the Savior; everything He has done for me and the wonderful example He is to me. I know that He lives and He loves me more than I could ever imagine.

Have a Happy Easter!

Surprises!!

Wanna know something kinda dumb?? Sam and I haven't ever really celebrated his birthday on his actual birth date. It's really sad! Last year we had Senior Ball on his birthday and this year it was Sunday and we didn't really get to do anything. It makes me feel bad! And then he'll be gone for his next two! It just isn't fair to that boy!! We tried to celebrate on Friday (the 15th) and we had SUCH a good time!

I decided to start his day off with a little breakfast in bed. It was so fun to do that for him!!

(These are the only pictures I took that day unfortunately)

Then after class we drove down to St. George and did baptisms! It was so great. It was the first time we'd gone since Sam was endowed and he got to help confirm a few people! He loved it!

Then after we went home and got a little cleaned up we went on the best date! We ate dinner at Olive Garden and shared a yummy chicken alfredo pizza and yummy white chocolate raspberry cheesecake for desert! 

Then we went mini golfing at Fiesta Fun. We LOVE to go mini golfing! It's the best. I got a hole in one!! But we ended up having to leave early for our movie and we TIED! We're both quite the mini golfers :)

Then we went to the dollar theater (which is now the 2.50 theater . .  DUMB!!) and watched Just Go With It. So funny. We loved it! It was just the best night ever!!

I just remembered I hadn't posted about our other surprise for the week!! 

My cute, cute roomate Kelli (who is going to be my roomie next year! YAY!!!) and I decided to make a special dinner for our boyfriends!! We started off by cleaning out my ENTIRE room until there was only our little table and our mattresses left! We stuffed everything into our bathroom and covered it with my sheet haha it was so beautiful and not tacky at all. . .

Then before the boys came we put candles up everywhere, played some music, and poured drinks into our fancy pants glasses that we bought at the dollar store haha dinner was so yummy though!! And the boys loved it! We ate salad, mashed potatoes, and chicken! And we also had strawberry shortcake for desert! YUMMM!! 

 The boys were so cute and appreciative!! We sure are lucky girls to have found such nice and handsome young men!!

This was such a fun night and well worth all the work!! The best surprise was the next day when I left THE MESSIEST room in the world (because we pulled all the stuff out of the bathroom but didn't put it back together) and I came home to a perfectly put together room and a note from my cute boy. Isn't he the greatest?? My roomies said he was in there working on putting my room together for a very long time. He's just the best! I love it.

Sorry for such a long post! We just had a wonderful week last week!! 

Here's to another!

Day 21 - A picture of something that makes you happy

This beautiful painting by Liz Lemon Swindle is titled "Hold On Tight" I feel like the little child on Christ's back is myself. I NEED Him in my life daily. I can't ever let go. It's so comforting to me to know that I have a Savior that loves me and is there for me at all times. He will carry my burdens no matter how heavy (or light) they may be. I am so happy to have an older brother that can help me get through EVERYTHING in my life. He not only embraces me when I turn to Him but he WAITS anxiously for me to come to Him. He knows me and what I am going through EXACTLY. I am so blessed to have this knowledge. I feel like the older I get, the more I need my Savior in my life and recognize as well as appreciate the gift he gave me, which is the Atonement. I love Him and everything He continually gives me. I pray every day that I can grow closer to Him as well as become more like Him.

Day 20 - A picture of somewhere you'd love to travel

 

I want to travel all through Europe but especially Italy. 

And I HAVE to go to Venice. 

It's beautiful 

P.S. I don't need any comments on here to make me jealous haha thanks for your cooperation

Day 19 - A picture of someone you miss

 

I miss Boots so bad!! He is the funniest boy ever and he was like a brother to all of us. He is so laid back and fun to be around. Everyone just loves his guts!! But now he is in Texas serving the Lord so it's ok for him to make us miss him. I just hope he gets his butt back here soon!

Happy Happy Birthday!!

Yesterday was the celebration of the birth of my best friend, Paige!! And boy did we celebrate!! Here's a couple hundred photos of our day and the bumpin partay we had haha.

Isn't she so pretty??

 

Paige and I went to lunch and then came home and she opened her present! Then we got all ready for a few friends to come over and play Just Dance 2 on the wii. SOOOO MUCH fun!!

Kierra and Ryken

Birthday girl and Kelsey. WOOOO GO KELSEY!!

Abby, Sam, Rob, and Cody just chillin and watching all the fun!

 

 

K I have to tell you about this guy in the checkered shirt. Paige and I had just met him earlier that day and it was SOOOO weird!! He heard us talking to our friend about her party that night and as we were leaving he was like,"well you guys can come to my birthday party tomorrow" and we were like,"oh it's your birthday tomorrow??" and then he said "No"

hahahahaha it was soooo weird and awkward so then we had to give him a pity invite after our long awkward silence and he showed up!!! But we were so glad he did because he gave us some good laughs with his singing and dancing. He was actually a really nice guy but it was just kinda funny. I felt bad because I think he felt a bit out of place with us haha. The quality is really bad and it's way better when you can see his facials but check out his AWESOME moves. . .

Brett and Kelli!

Derek and Rachel!!

Forrest and Paige. Nice face Forrest hahaha

 

Go Kelsey and Adam!!

 

She was sad because she missed 2 and we only had 18 candles haha

What was left of our cake!

Sam was loving the treats!! He got a huge belly from eating so much!! ;)

 

These boys know how to dance. Check this out. . .

 

We had such a blast that night! We played for almost 4 hours!! We couldn't stop! 

Thanks for being born Paige!! I love you!!
