November Update!

I love November!! It's my favorite month of the year!!! It's not just because my birthday is this month but I love how we have Thanksgiving and get to eat our lives a way :) I love how the leafs turn crunchy and I go slightly out of my way to step on a leaf that looks cruncher then other ones that are on my path. This year it is especially exciting!! My best friend Kelsie came home from her mission on November 19th!! YAY!!! I love her she's almost my other half! We're so similar in so many different ways! I'm way excited to catch up with her in the next few days/months to catch up her and find out how the mission went.

I'm also way excited because my sister is coming home from Japan for the first time in 2 years. It'll be nice to have my sister back for a couple weeks. Can you say SHOPPING?!?!?! LOL it'll be fun I miss having a shopping buddy that understands my sense of humor.

Oh yeah! You can't forget that NEW MOON came out today in theaters!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH I wish I could have gone to the midnight premier, but alas I've deceided to wait and go with my mom and sister either on my birthday or the day after. We'll see which one happens. I can't wait to see it!!! hmm team Jacob or team Edward???? I'm normally team Edward but I think for this movie I'm team Jacob!!! So hot!!!!!!!!! :D

Now for the things I'm thankful for.... I'm thankful for my family and friends who support me and love me. I'm thankful to have a warm home to live in. I'm thankful to have food on the table to eat. I'm thankful to have a car that I can drive whenever I want and wherever I want. I'm thankful to have a job, even if the hours are few I'm thankful for it non the less. I'm thankful to have the church in my life. It's helped me in so many different ways. I'm thankful for the callings I have in the church. They help me grow and help me be responsible. I'm thankful for the fall colors, and the smell of fall. I'm thankful for the sound of sleigh bells. It's one of my favorite sounds in the whole world!! They always make me smile. I'm thankful for so many things this list to go on and on and on, but I won't :)

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving everyone!!!

Linder Farms

At the moment I'm working two jobs. I'm still at Fashion Bug, but I'm also working at Linder Farms! It's a lot of fun. I'm working in the kitchen cooking food but the farm is amazing! We have lots of things for people to do. We have a 15 acre pumpkin patch, a 15 acre corn maze, straw bale maze, concessions, astro and inflatable jumps, petting zoo, pumpkin sling shot, barrel train rides, free hay rides, pony rides, and a swing for little kids.

I love working out there! It's a lot of fun and I'm excited to have a second job even for just a month and a half. So if any of you are bored and have a little bit extra spending cash come out to linder farms and do the corn maze. it's $8 dollars for adults $5 for kids 4-11 and kids 3 and under are free. If you mention the internet special you adults in for half price. We also have a haunted maze this year which is an extra $5 but it's worth it!!! So come visit me and go through the A-MAZE-ING BRONCOS MAZE!!! Part of the proceeds will be donated to the BSU scholarship fund also!!!

So I was tired of being blond! So I colored my hair again it's closer to my natural color again and I absolutely love it!!! I even curled it for the first time in a long time on Sunday! I'm soo happy everyone really likes it!!

Mechanical Bull

So I rode a mechanical bull this weekend for the first time! it was a lot of fun! I will do it again for sure!! Even if it made me really sore!!

I took lots of photos like 160 something!! lets just say it was amazing and wonderful to get so close to nature!! here are a few of my favorite photos!! Scenery photos and a couple of me and the bruise i got from shooting a shot gun and not holding it right! opps! :)

Summer is here which means......

IT'S SAND VOLLEYBALL, TENNIS, AND ULITMATE FRISBEE SEASON!!! YAY!!! I'm pretty much super excited about these three sports! Is it sad that when I think of summer I think of pretty much only these things? I count the days down till sand volleyball starts.... I'm not even kidding I count down the days till school ends and the day finals are over we start playing!!! lol!! but yeah I just thought I would share with you how extreamly excited I am that it's summer!!!

Grace of God

I received this in an email and really liked it!

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him. Every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming.. Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of drift wood to protect him from the elements, and to store his few possessions. One day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, with smoke rolling up to the sky. He felt the worst had happened, and everything was lost. He was stunned with disbelief, grief, and anger. He cried out, 'God! How could you do this to me?' Early the next day, he was awakened by the sound of a ship approaching the island! It had come to rescue him! 'How did you know I was here?' asked the weary man of his rescuers. 'We saw your smoke signal,' they replied.

The Moral of This Story: It's easy to get discouraged when things are going bad, but we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of our pain and suffering. Remember that the next time your little hut seems to be burning to the ground. It just may be a smoke signal that summons the Grace of God.
