Goodbyes

Well, Wednesday is the day, and Ive been saying my goodbyes. Friends and family. (a few people are missing unfortunately, but you get the idea. If you're missing I'm sorry. I love you.)

Last Sunday

Today was my last Sunday teaching my little Sunbeams. I will miss them so much. This is my adorable class. Left to right: Tucker Sowers, Lucy Mugerian, Robert Addams, Deanna Jones, Visitor, Tacie Stewart, Taylor Moyer, and Mark Vincent.

Missing Kevin

It has only been a week, but I already miss Kevin so much! I saw this picture and it made me all nostalgic. : (

Crush

Matthew Fox, he's hot. Need I say more?

Zombie

So I was a doctor turned zombie for Halloween this year. I was helping a patient with a bite and suddenly, he bit me. It turned out pretty good if I do say so myself. ; ) I had to work til 10 that night but some guy said it was the scariest costume he'd seen all night, and I made a couple little kids cry, so it was worth it. Ha! (just kidding about the kids crying)

After work I hit an awesome party at the house where my brother lives. Dancing...This is my friend Scott, he owns the house and the party!
and me chillin.

Snow Bird

Every year we head up to the condo at snow bird to celebrate my dad's birthday. Here we are having dinner and shooting some pool. Good times.

Farewell Bro

Here are some pics from Kevin's farewell. He's going to the Brazil, Salvador South mission on Tuesday. Kevin, you will be missed.

New Chapter

Well, after eleven weeks of waiting my call finally came! I suppose you'll want to know where I'm going. : ) Well, I have been called to serve as a missionary in the New York, Rochester mission. (English speaking) I'm really excited. I would have loved to go foreign and learn a language, but I really feel like this call is inspired and I'm stoked to go. And it wasn't Idaho. Praises for that! I report to the mtc on December 10th. I'm ready to move on and start this awesome new chapter of my life. Sweet sauce!

Friends

I am grateful for friends today. I've been having a really hard time dealing with some stuff lately, and the other day one of my friends just sat with me while I cried. He rubbed my arm and tried to make me feel better and that was exactly what I needed. Dealing with the same issue, I called my sister, and she talked to me and told me all the things I needed to hear and made me feel like I can get through anything. Then I talked to another friend and he told me exactly what I didn't want to hear, but sadly it was probably true, and I need a reality check. I'm grateful for friends that listen, friends that care, and friends that tell you the truth no matter how much it hurts. I love you all! Thanks for being there. : )
