Skype&Speaking(:

What a wonderful thing, skype is:) I had the amazing chance to go over to Court's parent's house yesterday for Mothers day, & it was amazing!! As soon as I walked in I was warmly welcomed by his amazing family:) His dad rushed me up stairs because I guess Court had already been talking for a few minutes to everyone! So I quickly ran upstairs and low-&-behold, Court was talking/yelling to everyone! With smiles all around, we settled down and got to talk to Court one on one for about 20 minutes each, which was fantastic! I obviously didn't leave the computer... haha. I couldn't miss one second of Him!! It was honestly the greatest thing ever:) The whole time we were talking he just kept on saying how beautiful I was to everyone & introducing me to his companion:) ha. {one of the many things I miss about him... he always tells me i'm beautiful:)} So it was great:) Everyone got a chance to talk to him! (Even his nephew who's also on a mission, but got to call at the same time so they put the phone on speaker, up to the computer). I loved every second of it:) But, in the end, no time will ever be enough to spend with him...

Also, something very ironic... I got to give a talk!! I say that this is ironic because earlier that week I had a senior testimony meeting & all the senior class is invited, but it's with seminary:) So, everyone was bearing their testimonies, having a wonderful, spiritual, time, but they closed it before I got the courage to stand up and give mine! I was sad, & told heavenly father that I really wanted to bear my testimony!! That same day, the bishop gave me a chance to bear mine in sacrament the next week:) God works in mysterious ways:) haha. But it was all very nice! I cried, my mom cried, a few other people, & the spirit was there to tell people what they needed to hear:) I absolutely love this gospel & will never part from it:)

us:)

Just a few pictures of us:)

Play Catch-Up

Hello again... It sure has been a while.
[five months to be exact!!]
So many different things have been happening as of lately what with classes, the end of cheer, getting ready for college & best of all getting ready for GRADUATION! {can I get an AMEN!?} & I could not feel better! Unfortunately, along with my new-found "busy" lifestyle I seem to have neglected this blog for quite some time (which I hope to never do again). But, there are some wonderful {& not so wonderful} things that have happened since the last time we've met:) some of them are:

• My brother, sister-n-law & their two kids Zoey & Logan have moved in.
• I've registered for college @ Southern Utah University. Go T-birds!!
• Started (& almost finished) the Hunger Games book series! [a highly recommended read]
• Completely finished my senior cheer year at PGHS... such a wonderful year:)
• Got nationally certified as a Phlebotomist! NCPT baby:)
• Enjoyed every second of the last month of school... so far. & It's only getting better!!:)

That's basically what I've been doing the past couple of months:) Other than writing & receiving letters from the one & only:) How is he doing, you ask?? Well, he's great! Just been baptizing the Hell out of everyone!! (literally... no profane language here) He has had nine baptisms and so many interested in the gospel! It is so amazing to hear of all the people he is teaching & I feel as if I kind of know them already! Court is picking up the language {Portuguese} very well. I can't believe he is bilingual! haha. He actually gets to Skype the family on mothers day!! So in two days I will head north to his parents house & get to see him & hear him! I cannot wait:):) I will make sure to tell you how it goes!
Until next time... God bless:)
