Life is Good!

This picture has nothing too significant, except that it shows how happy I am in this time of my life. I have recently been reunited with my parents and family. My lil brother has completed an entire year on his mission. I have received my Endowments in the temple. And also these last couple of days I have been able to participate in my best friend's wedding. And of course we cannot forget the fact that I am only weeks away from entering the mission field! Life truly is so good and I thank God for every bit of it!

Best Firend off to the Temple

Stacy received her Endowments. It was so beautiful to participate in. I am so greatful we have been able to share these great events together and that I get to see her and Brett get married before I head off on my mission!

breaking the rules!

While visiting in Tucson, we went out to a restaurant where they also had live entertainment. We watched a western show and then had dinner. One of the rules at the restaurant, is that if you wear a tie, it gets cut off! Well Jon broke the rule, so his tie got cut off to join the hundreds of other rule breaking ties in the place!

hermanitas!

I can't begint o express how much I loe my three little sisters! I am going ot miss them terribly! They grow up so much, and I am ok with that, but what hurts is that I can't be there everyday to watch them grow! I will miss my little girls so much!

The Temple

August 5th was the day I received my Endowments in the temple. It was the most beautiful day in my life! I am so grateful I got to share this special day with my parents and grandparents. Thank you all those who came to support me!

asleep in the tub

This little princess fell asleep in the bath tub. Grant it it was empty, but I guess playing can be just that exausting!

Matthew's comps!

While in AZ I got to meet up with two of Matthew's friends from the mission. Adam and Nate. At one point, we got to talk about the great aspects of missionary work! They are both such great guys, ladies watch out!

Pres. Becroft

After the reunion, we got to visit with Presidnet Becroft and his wife! It was so nice to be at their place. I treasure the fact that my dad's mission president and his wife have become such speacial people oin our lives. They are certainly "Grandma and Grandpa Becroft" for a reason! We love them both so much.
