Blessings Post... (A Precursor to my Girls Camp Recap Post)

-
This past week has been fantastic! I just got back from my 6th year of Girls Camp!! I went to look back on my past Girls Camp posts! I have had a recap post since my first year! It is amazing to look back and see how I've progressed the last couple years! I cannot even wrap my head around the fact that I am now officially a Senior in high school! I'm kind of freaking out so much! I only have four classes to go until I get my Associates Degree, but I'm a little bit worried because they're college science and math classes... But I know that as I pray and work hard it will turn out just fine! I have had such amazing service oppurtunities this year being Laurel president, High School Representative, and Seminary president, I'm just sad that my time is going to be crunched this next year and I won't be able to participate as much! I have throughouly enjoyed all my experiences! They have all been blessings in my life!

Something else that has totally change my life is that I got my drivers licence the day before my birthday!!! I love driving!! I really only drive to church, mutual, and work but it is so different from anything that I have ever done before. I always feel so grown up when I get behind the wheel! But I always make sure that I pray before I do! I have a testimony that it is vitally important for me to do so! Houston drivers are crazy, so I love driving at times when the roads are all but empty. Every time that I have prayed before leaving the roads are clear, or I'm able to get home without having to worry about getting in a wreck with a wreckless driver. It's kind of hard to explain how I see it as a blessing but I do... So yeah.

One last blessing that I have is having a stable job. They are so willing to work with my crazy whacked out scehdule, and they give me all the hours they can. Sometimes I wish I could just go find another job, but I love everyone I work with, and I enjoy getting to know some of the people who come in!

So pretty much this might be one of the last posts for a while, because I start summer school in a few weeks, and I'll be working a lot more. Oh!! And I have a talk on Sunday...But that is a story for another time! :) Farwell!

    Isn't girls' camp THE BEST? I'm so happy you went all 6 years and did all the awesome YCL stuff! I know some girls that only go for 4 or 5 years, and they SO miss out.

    I just got back from camp Saturday afternoon (I was a cabin Mom this year) and it was amazing! I loved it so much, and so did our girls!

    Zach Face got a job in April, working at the movie theater that's just 3 minutes' drive away from our house. He loves it, and like your job, they are great at working around his scheduling needs. Also, they respect his request to never work on Sunday! And HEY! He gets to go to movies for free all the time, and he can bring his parents for free, woo hoo!

What Happens When Daredevils Take On Crafts.......

For the past two weeks I've been eagerly awaiting my chance to learn how to quilt with the women in our Ward!!!! I went with Monkey this morning, and not only did I make a l ap quilt but I also found that I love q uilting !!!!! Because I was thinking so much about quilting I think it was hammered into my sub-conscience mind.........That's the only thing that can explain this dream, or I'm just weird. You choose. The Dream- In my dream I was running in the woods with a pile of fabric in one hand, and a sewing machine in the other. In the middle of a small clearing was a table, so I went up to the table and quickly laid out my stuff and started quilting. I was just a quarter of the way done when something crashed through the bushes behind me, one hand was still sewing while the other was hitting the creature that was trying to attack me. I kicked and hit the stuffing out of the thing, and it left battered and bruised with it's tail between it's legs. I just shook my...

Yes this is all true!

I have said many crazy things in my life. Most of them my mom has already blogged. So I'm going to blog this one. Besides it is my story. When we were at the pool Friday my mom wanted me to pull her around the pool. I did it, then I tried to pick her up in the water. I jokingly told her that I'll have to get married in a pool so my husband could carry me over the threshold. Please remember that I was joking. Well anyway this summer we spent a lot of it at the pool. So we saw the lifeguards frequently. One of them always had his Rubik cube with him, I thought it was interesting. So when I got home I said,"Mom I want an aerobics cube." Yes I thought it was an aerobics cube. I learned quickly that I was wrong. Because my mom started laughing and told me between laughs that its Rubik. Okay so now I get it. That's only a couple of the crazy things to have escaped my mind and come out of my mouth. So I don't feel alone on this matter please share some of the crazy ...

Be afraid, very afraid of the lama-eating casserole

Yesterday we finally finished working on the front yard! And I'm very excited about it. Before we finished Monkey, and I were talking while we weeded the big planter. Monkey was telling me about a girl in her class that can mimic all the characters on Napoleon Dynamite. I was laughing and quoting Tina's moment in the casserole spotlight until mom who was a couple feet away from me asked what I was talking about and I told her," Hello mom, you can't interrupt me while I'm talking about lama-eating casserole." I had meant to say casserole eating-lama, but whatever it didn't come out that way. As you can probably guess I was taken over by my laughing. After my laughter had died down, and I could see and talk clearly again my mom said to me,"If there was a lama-eating casserole you wouldn't be allowed in a petting zoo ." She said that they would tell me,"Sorry ma'am but that casserole is a danger to our lamas so you'll have to lea...
