Just another weekend!

I have to admit something... lately, I have been super super happy, and I don't know why, but I sure do love it! This post, wont really have a theme, but I thought I would update you on how things have been going.
Things in my life have just been falling into place. I am so grateful that I have the gospel in my life, for I see its miracles everyday of my life. I love the temple, and still am going every Friday, I love how the spirit overflows my mind because of this. I have a hard time being sad now, and I have many people to thank for that, you know who you are, and the many family and friends that I have, have permanently put a smile on my face. As I am writing this post, I am sitting on my dad's big comfy chair, and watching Toy Story 3, all by myself, this is the first weekend that I have had the whole house to myself. It's pretty peaceful!
Ok.... Here comes a bullet point list of things that I have been doing for the last little bit.
-Gave a group presentation in my health class... we designed a health program about preventing adult obesity and helping students find out how to be healthy and stick to a budget and use our own campus's facilities, for basically nothing. Wow I am so glad that is over, it was kind of stressful, but made me realize, that sooner or later, I will actually be doing these projects and actually help people!! I loved it, it made me so excited for the future and what it entails.
-Last Saturday, some friends and I played "glow-in-the-dark" capture the flag at Draper Park. Let me tell you, it was so much fun! Running around and every single one of us stepping and slipping in the really smelly mud, where ever that came from, we were all covered in it. As of late, I realized that I don't really hang out with a lot of girls, ha so it's been me and a bunch of guys. No offense to girls, but when girls talk, no matter what the topic, there always is some unwanted drama that is brought up, not that I mind, but with guys it's a different and funny kind of talk.
-I saw The Amazing Spider Man, first movie I have seen in the movie theater, since I don't know... May! Ah ha I need to get out more! But needless to say, I had A WONDERFUL time!
-I love dark chocolate now!
-Blueberries, peaches, ice cream, and almonds are my new favorite snacky foods.
-My favorite colors are coral and turquoise... ha big surprise right!
-I gave myself a challenge. I believe that every person can be wonderful and amazing in there own way. We need to accept that everyone is different, and be ok with that. However, we also need to know how to be healthy as well. Personally, I could be in better shape, and eat better. So I am going to do it!! I really am going to stick with it. It's called "OPERATION I'M SEXY AND I KNOW IT!!" I have given myself a daily workout and I am trying really trying to eat better and avoid those simple sugars that most of the time I crave. So far... my body is slowly transforming. I have sore muscles pretty much everyday, and my eating habits are getting better. I do not intend to lose weight, because I know I don't need to. I just want to get in better shape, so that I have the control of my future and my wellness of life. So, sore muscles... I love you!
-I killed a spider! Oh my goodness this was so epic. I got home from the Days of 47 Rodeo, and was getting ready for bed. Well for one, I should have never looked at the wall, but I did, and my heart pretty much dropped to my stomach. I was frozen in time and I was not moving. However, I was able to get a shoe, after debating which shoe I would use. I had to talk myself into killing this spider. I hate, hate, hate spiders. I will not kill them, I scream and have other people kill them for me. But... no one was home! Shaking with fear, I imagined it jumping on me, which made it even worse. I stood there for 20 min saying "You can do it, it's so small compared to you, just smash it!" Holy cow! I am such a chicken! Finally, I screamed, and ran to the wall with a "hi-ya" realized what I had done, didn't even clean up the guts, and threw my shoe to the ground. I leaped into bed and took two deep breaths and said stupid spider... it's time for bed! I do have to admit... I am very proud of myself.
-I went to the Rodeo with Lindsey, Donald, Brooklynn, Courtney and Nick. So basically I was the 5th wheel... which I did not mind! I had loads of fun and would not trade this night at all! Can I get a YEEHAW!
-I was bored... so go figure I went to the craft store to see what I could do.... I found something!! I came home and immediately started it, which only took me an hour and a half start to finish. I got some canvas, stickers and paint. I placed the alphabet on the canvas and painted over the letters. I waited a little bit of time and peeled the stickers off. For just an experiment, it turned out pretty sweet. With a bunch of negative space, I will now put it in my bathroom!
- In September I am doing this Zumba event with my best friend Cierra. It is going to be an all day dance event! So I wanted to make a sweet shirt, so I grabbed some scissors, beads, and on old shirt. I fringed the shirt and added beads to it, so now when I spin or shake my hips, it will not only make noise, but flow as well!! I want to make a better one though....

Well that's all! Ha so much has happened, I would love to share it all, but it would probably bore you guys! I love life! I am so grateful for everything that has happened thus far. I could never be happier! Go forth and do my friends!!

The journey of my new smile...

I felt like blogging about the journey of getting my new smile. Oh boy! It sure has been a long, painful, and exciting process. In May of  2000 I was riding my bike, like a big girl (I was 8) with a bunch of my siblings and cousins, to my grandma's church (which was just down the street from where she lives. Staying on the side of the road as instructed, there was a man hole cover that was not pushed down all the way. Being toward the back of the bike line I didn't notice that it was up about three or so inches. Everyone else had dodged it and went around it. I, going full speed to keep up went straight over it and flipped over my bike handle bar, bike still in hand I landed on my stomach. I got up, a little dizzy and discombobulated got up thinking that was pretty sweet that I survived that epic crash. I didn't know how bad it was until my sister Kelsey started screaming "Kacey! Kacey! You have blood running down your face!" I immediately put my hand to my face a...

Personal Thought: A simple prayer answered

I had an experience a few weeks ago that helped me realize the power of prayer. This is kind of personal (not kind of... it is very personal), but I wanted to share it and maybe someone could benefit from it. For a while I have had abnormal bleeding (for long periods of time), not thinking really anything of it, I ignored it for months actually. At times it would be pretty painful, took some IB Profin, and I ignored it. I was talking to someone who said that with the IUD that I had, that bleeding that bad was not normal. Again, I didn't think anything of it. Spencer and I have been talking about our future family and this came up in conversation. Spencer is not as excited about starting our family this young but I am all over it. I was surprised when he asked me to go get it checked out, because something could be wrong. It took for me to hear him say that to go schedule an appointment. Of course I looked online of what it could possibly be and then I got nervous. I had be...
