my amazing ward

Can I just say I really lucked out this year in picking the perfect place to live. I absolutely love my roommates and my ward is amazing. I love the people and we always have a great time. Here is my FHE group playing steal the flag. (note- for the summer we are split up into houses from harry potter and it is surprisingly fun) 

A couple weeks ago it was Lindsays birthday and I got her these cute balloons and we partied all day and night! That night we went to an outdoor concert at a guys apartment in our ward they had a bunch of performers who were great and it was so much fun!

Some of the birthday crew!

 Guess what you'll never believe it I found friends shorter than me.... crazy right ;) I love them!

Dreaming

I love june for the fact that it is time for parade of homes! Although I didn't get to make it to all of the houses I love going! Here is one of my favorite houses

A girl can dream though.... right ;)

6-14-14

June 14th 2014 I received my endowment. I was joined by all of my siblings and spouses as well as my parents and grandparents. It was a PERFECT day, one I will never forget. That night I went home and wrote in my journal the whole experience and my feelings. I got great advice from my dad that the most important thing that I could take from this experience and day is the feeling I felt and the spirit. I have remembered that as I have gone through this week. I am planning on going back this next week and I know with time I will be enlighten and be able to remember. I cannot explain the joy and love I had seeing my family walk into the celestial room. I will forever be grateful for my eternal family and the joy of this day. 

 My amazing family!

 Mount Timpanogos Temple (the first open house I went to and "my" temple)

 My wonderful dad and mom

And of course a selfie with my mom

I love to see the temple I'll going inside this week!

Getting my endowment has been on my mind for along time but it was something I knew I wanted to do this coming year. I love going to the temple and doing baptisms but I also would love to be endowed and receive those covenants and blessings. I know that receiving my endowment and making those sacred covenants will such a blessing in my life. Since a mission is not something I feel strongly that I need to do at this time and I'm not getting married yet... I felt this is the time for me. I am so excited to go through the temple with my family and I am so grateful for the support they have given me. As I have made preparations to go to the temple I have felt very at peace and I know it is something that Heavenly Father would have me do. I cannot wait for Saturday!

The temple provides purpose for our lives. It brings peace to our souls—not the peace provided by men but the peace promised by the Son of God when He said, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you.” - President Thomas S. Monson

The past while has been crazy and really stressful at times with getting ready for the spring recital. And I don't even do all the work my AMAZING mom is miracle worker that puts everything together and makes it a great production. I have learned everything from her and I am so grateful I get to work with my mom! This year was awesome I think it ran really smooth and our dancers were amazing! Now I am looking forward to a little break and then starting back up in August. I seriously love my job it is so rewarding! And to be able to share something very dear to my heart, the very thing that has shaped who I am, and my outlet  

(dance)  

I love seeing my students learn and love what they are doing. It is really a special thing to work with children that look up to you so much. I wouldn't trade what I do for the world and I owe that to my mom giving me the opportunity to share my talent and love for dance. 

 Ah this book is truly 

p e r f e c t 

I love it so much I have read it twice and thinking about reading it again ;) 

I think it is such a beautiful story and has so much life and comedy to it. 

Can't wait to see the movie tomorrow! 

So I was shopping at Costco and I found these GORGEOUS peonies and 

I immediately had to buy them.

I mean come on......

My absolute favorite flower (take note ;) ) and I'm sure it will not be the last time I purchase them.

because they're peonies and sometimes a girls gotta buy her own flowers

Memorial Day

Memorial Day has been amazing! Started off the day at the lake and it was perfect weather.

 Russ and Misty invited us to visit Olivia and to have a BBQ at there home! 

Lovely daisies for sweet Angel Olivia. Love you forever baby girl. I am truly changed by her and this experience I will never forget. I know that we will all be reunited together because of this gospel and the atonement it is made possible. Families are forever and I am so blessed knowing that. So thankful to have her watching over me and playing with my future children.

We Love You!

Amazing day to remember

 Date night creation at color me mine. Not sure what I was going for but I'm kind of happy with the results :)

I got eyelash extensions. Okay I was really excited yet nervous of how it would go and it was a long process but I am happy with the results. It definitely took some time getting used to them but I love the way they look and it always looks like I have makeup on so thats a plus!
