So close

I pulled out my handy dandy calander today, and guess what!!!! Only 15 more days until I get to see the Love of my life!!!

We enjoy doing so many things together:


We love playing in the snow


Going for hikes

This is the first day we spent almost the entire day together on the cruise.

And he loves to take me for a bike ride. I say that because I slow him down so much it's not even considered a bike ride for him.
Oh boy 15 days, and then after that, only 30 more days till the end of the semester!!! Oh I am so excited!!!

Announcing...

So again I must say, I HAVE THE CUTEST NIECE IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!!! Katie put more pictures on facebook, and she is unable to put them on her blog so I though I would share them again, I hope that's ok Katie!?


Boy do I love her!!!

Such a pretty little girl

Modeling

Precious

I just thought this was hilarious!!!

I am excited to announce some good news for a change. I appreciate all of your prayers and your support. I have officially been accepted onto fast grad and will not be going home this fall. I will be living out West pretty much till further notice. lol. I now only have a million other things to do ASAP like Register for classes, figure out Ryan's credits, and what transfers and what doesn't. Housing for next semester, all on top of a hundred different assignments due for class. These last three days have been so stressful for me, probably some of the most stressful ever. I'm just thankful that tomorrow is Thursday, which means Friday is almost here, which means that a four day week end is right around the corner!!! Even though I don't have anything going on for the weekend, mostly just doing whatever the heck I feel like with nobody, I am going to greatly enjoy it!!!
Well as for Ryan, he's in North Carolina selling, doing pretty well too. But he's getting sick and working too hard and not getting the sleep he needs. But we're excited to see each other in only 28 more days!!! That's really doesn't sound to bad huh!!! I can do it!!! I have to do it!!!
Well I should go I have a million and one things to do still before I go to bed...

Just when I thought the end was in sight...

The last week has been really tough for me. So I am going to vent...if your looking for a happy go lucky post, stop reading...cause this is not going to be pretty...I am frustrated, so frustrated...

First of all I got laid off of my job in Georgia because of the economy, so now when I am home (however long it might be), I don't have a job. So if you know of anybody who is looking for work for probably 6 weeks this summer, please let me know!!! I'll do most anything!

Second, BYU-I is DUMB DUMB DUMB, I can't emphasize it enough...DUMB I SAY...DUMB... So Ryan applied for BYU-I for the Fall/Winter track and I was going to get onto fast grad so we could be out here together. Well first of all BYU-I was not helpful to Ryan in figuring out his classes and such, and second of all they're saying that I can't get onto fast grad. I was going to go home this summer and work at the job that I don't have anymore and do my internship with them, but now that Ryan is in the pictures plans changed. So I was going to finish up my classes as soon as possible so I could do my internship next summer where ever we might be. But Brother Bell (Business Management Chair) said that I can't do my internship last, I have to do it before I finish my classes. Well in order for me to do that would mean that I am away from Ryan this Fall and next Summer, and I am sorry but that isn't even an option in my book. I will drop out of school before I spend another semester away from him. One of the only logical options in this case is for me to find a pre-approved internship for NEXT summer that he will pass off on before he signs my fast grad papers...so Brother Bell is on my 'people who are dead to me' list...

Thirdly, why is it if something is right, and you know it's right, why is it things just don't work out? Why does Heavenly Father have to have different plans for you than you're expecting? Why does he make us work so hard for something so wonderful?

I have a testimony of the gospel, and I keep telling myself that I know it's all going to work out for the better, I just don't know how, and that is so hard for me to not know. Just please pray for me that doors will open and that things will work out the way Heavenly Father intended for them to. And pray that I will have the determination to finish school, because right now I have none, dropping out is sounding better and better, and I am willing to do that if it comes to that, because I refuse to be away from Ryan any longer, it's not even an option, I won't even consider it. My education is important to me, and I cherish it, and I want to finish, but I am not willing to make the sacrifice Brother Bell is asking me to make for it.

39 days

So my sister-in-law's blog is all messed up or something and it's really temperamental and doesn't allow her to put pictures up, so here are a few pictures I thought I would share of Kendalynn, cause she is so stinkin' cute...she by far beats every other little girl.


This is her little cousin Eli, he's quite a bit younger than she is, but he looks like they're the same size.

She is growing up so fast, I can't wait to see her in 39 days!!!


So last weekend I was able to spend it with Ryan and his family. It was our last weekend together. We had to say goodbye, I won't see him until June 17 (in 39 days)...not that I am counting or anything. But I got myself a plane ticket, and I am going to brag about it cause it was a steal. A round trip ticket on Delta from Idaho Falls to North Carolina for $300...I was so excited!!! So now I have something to look forward to!!! Well now that Ryan is gone my blog might become quite boring, cause I am not going to be doing much of anything other than school and hangin with grandma on the weekends!!! I am taking 17 credits this semester, so I am going to be staying very busy, which is good because that just means this semester will go by that much faster!!!

The last three days I have been camping at Badger Creek which is at the base of the Tetons. I had to go there for one of my classes and participate in all these team building exercises. It was a lot of fun and did a lot of activities that I had never done before, but we had all kinds of weather, rain, snow, sun, wind, cold, but never hot...It was fun, but I am sure glad to be back home and sleeping in my own bed.

Boy do I miss him
