Another one down!

Friends! I have to admit that June has been one crazy month! Almost everyday packed with something, from school to weddings! I have loved being so busy, it makes time go by fast and I sure have enjoyed learning to manage my time wisely so that everything can get done. Like always, many things have happened, and I could not more grateful for how everything has ended! Heavenly Father has been a huge help with so many things, and I have seen his hand in my life these past few weeks. I love that I have My Savior to help guide me in the right direction to do the right things. Little by little I have been having my prayers answered, although it has been a long time coming, I now understand why I have had to go through the things I have gone through. The last few weeks my eyes have been opened and I now just have to laugh about how impatient I was. I would love to share, but they are personal, just know to never give up hope and that everything will turn out the way it is supposed to, eventually. You are never alone and when you feel like this, fall to your knees and ask for comfort, you will feel something.
Anyway... here is what has been going on lately...
Yes, I am single, and I love it, really, it has been fun! I have enjoyed the dates I have gone on, and recently, the past few have been super fun! I know that there is someone out there for me, and I know the guy who will sweep me off my feet will come out of the blue, and I will really know why I had to wait so long to find him!
Ha ha I know that was random but on Thursday, June 28, 2012, my beautiful sister Courtney and my new brother-in-law were married for time and all eternity. They are so perfect for each other and finally they were able to become an eternal family. Everything just fell into place for them, from the temple ceremony to the house they just got. They have set a huge example to me and for when I find my eternal spouse. They got married in the Oquirrh Mountain Temple at 11 am, although it was windy and super hot, it was beauiful!
If anyone has been married you know what I mean by the day was packed full of adventures. We got to sleep in a little bit, then Kelsey and I had the wonderful opportunity to help Court get ready. I did her hair, and Kels did her make-up. We tried to keep it simple, because Courtne is a natural beauty. Oh boy when she was done, she looked even prettier! She was quiet, but very excited to marry Nick. After the ceremony, all of her worries went away as she planted a big kiss on Nick's lips!
Right after the temple ceremony it was time for the luncheon. It was delicious! It was great seeing our family come together to celebrate this wonderful day. After running to Wal-Mart, it was suddenly time to go set up for the reception. Not having any time to fix my hair or anything else for that matter, I don't think I have ever seen such a big thing be put together so fast with so many hands. The reception was at Wheeler Farm and it was super cute! I loved everyminute of it! With black, pastel yellow, orange, and ivory, I have never seen such a cute wedding! Sunflowers, burlap, cowboy boots, daisies, popcorn and lots of it, and so so many family and friends. Everything went beautifully! It was perfect and even though it was extremely hot, my family is lucky to say that we have another boy in the family! I can't wait for my big day! Anyway... Nick and Courtney congrats! And enjoy your fun, new adventure!

Potty Training and tips

I know most of you won't care about this post, but I know my future self will be grateful for it. Potty training is so tricky and it really tested my patience. I know everyone experiences it differently and each kid is different. I did a bunch of research on tricks and tips. I didn't just stick to one, I tried a few different ones and even combined some. Let's start from the beginning. Spencer and I wanted to have Evie potty trained before our new little one arrives. I can't even begin to tell you how many people told me I should wait until the new baby came. A good chunk of these same people told me Evie was too young (she is 22 months) and it wasn't worth my time to even try. Here's the thing; I kind of get why people told me these things, but it really made me doubt my abilities to teach Evie a hard task. Let's all be kind and not mom shame those who try things differently and earlier than others. I am with her all day, every day and paid attention to a...

What being in college has taught me

I know I have been terrible at writing on my blog the past couple of months. School has engulfed my attention and honestly blogging has been the last on my priority list. I wanted to write blog about my college experience... since I graduate in 53 days. I am thrilled beyond words to be this close to being done. I had know idea it would feel like this nor that it would come so soon. In just a few short months I will be able to call myself a graduate of Health Promotion and Education with an emphasis in Community, also being eligible to become CHES (Certified Health Education Specialist) certified. Wow what a mouthful! Being in college was not like I expected, it was much more. I have been through the worst of worst and the best of best experiences. I would like to share with you what I have learned in the past four years (From beginning to end), I hope you can get a good laugh about it. To those who have yet to start college, I strongly encourage you to start thinking about going. You w...

Help me raise money for a cause (Part 1)

As many of you know, I have Type 1 Diabetes for 10 years in August 2013. For those of you who don't know, I would like to share my story (in summary). At the end of the school year while in the 5th grade I started to lose my vision. Things started to change quickly inside of my body. I was never feeling fully energized and I was constantly feeling like I had to go to the bathroom and drink lots of water. I started to lose weight and the color in my cheeks started to disappear. The first two weeks in the 6th grade I weighed a scarce 73 pounds. My eyes were sunk in and my cheek bones were poking out. My mom took me to the doctors. After a quick finger prick, they found out that my blood sugar was 831mg/dl. (Normal target range is 80-120 mg/dl) That was a very dangerous number! I was then told I had to be taken directly to Primary's; I couldn't even go home to get things. Both my mom and I were in a mix of emotions. Not long after being admitted to the hospital, I was given th...
