It's Official!!

Who would have ever thought the day would come. Honestly, I think I am more sad than relieved. I have always been one of those weird kids who loved school. Honestly, when I was in third grade, I asked my teacher on the last day of school if she could give me extra math problems to do over the summer. I loved it! She probably gave me a couple thousand problems to do and I'm pretty sure I finished them all within the first couple weeks of summer break. I was an odd child, but I truly love to learn!


My BYU experience has been amazing. I cannot put into words how wonderful it has been to even give you a glimpse of it. I would have never imagined that school college would do so much for me. Not only learning what is taught in school, but truly learning about life and learning about me. I have made some of the dearest friends in the world who I hope will remain close long after our college days.


For those of you who are wondering, I majored in Family, home, & social science; in other words MOM! All I have ever wanted to be is a mother. Yes I have many interest and I changed my major at least 7 times. Kind of crazy, I know. But I like way too many things. I finally prayed a lot about it and realized what would be best for me and my future family and I loved every minute of it! My classes were amazing and I learned more than I thought possible.

I also minored in Music as well as PE: teaching & Coaching. The coaching minor was the best thing ever!! I loved it so much and I am so eager to have my own team to coach! It was such great experience. At first I thought I was crazy for adding it on because it was so many extra credits, but I really wanted to and I'm so glad I did. Many of my vary favorite teachers were from my Coaching classes. They were the best!


I must add that I truly could not have done it without my parents. They have been such an amazing stem of support. And yes that includes financially, but honestly it is so much more than their. Their love and encouragement is the only thing that got me through some of my roughest times which have also turned out to be the times of the most growth. I love them both dearly and owe them all the happiness I enjoy! Thank you mom and dad!!


Of course I must give a shout out to my Husband. He is the best man in the world and I am truly the luckiest woman alive to have him in my life. He is so good to me, much better than I deserve. And I love him more than anything! College has been quite an adventure for us and I am so glad we could share those experience together!
And also a thanks to the in laws who have also been a big support to us! As you can see, I have been richly blessed! And now my college experience is over. The only questing that remains is, what next?

What to pack . . .

So now that he really could come ANY DAY I figured it was probably time for me to pack my bag. I of course have one of those "What to bring" checklist, but I was wondering what your thoughts where. Is there anything you wish you had brought but didn't? Is there anything you would have died without if you hadn't brought it? I'm just so clueless! A few tips from you experienced mothers would be greatly appreciated!! I cant believe it is so close!!

Have you noticed?

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk . . .

So being an emotional pregnant woman is definitely taking its tole on both me and Jeff (what a wonderful, patient, and understanding man he is). Saturday morning I was so excited because for the first time in weeks we actually had a morning together. I had planned to make us a delicious breakfast just like my dad always did for me. We had Eggs, Hashbrowns, and even Bacon; we were so excited. So I started cooking the bacon first, knowing it would take the longest. Then when I thought they were close to being done, Jeff started cooking the eggs and I threw on the hashbrowns. Well, needless to say, the eggs finished super fast and the others were not even close. And then to add more to my frustration the pan I was using for the hashbrowns was awful! Despite my many tablespoons of butter the entire thing was completely stuck! I switched pans in the middle to try to save them. In the meantime Jeff ate his eggs so they wouldn't get cold. I insisted on waiting so I could eat th...
