Dolphin Tale Movie

so this weekend my mom and I watched the best movie in the world!!! so much that I am watching it again today. the movie is called Dolphin Tale, all I am going to say is that if you have not seen it it is a must see, and that the song that is the first song on the end credits will make you cry. I cried...

take a look into what I am talking about:




the words are amazing and the clips they used from the video are amazing as well!! it will bring you to tears.

I hope you all are having a wonderful wintery saturday :)

some thoughts

I know I don't write on here very often, but I thought I would write on here tonight since it has been over a month since I have last updated my blog.

Christmas was great this year, and I got some things I needed, and I got some other things that are pretty cool too. I wish I had some pictures from this christmas to share, but I took not one picture with my camera this past christmas, we must have been having too much fun!

this year in April I will have my student loan paid off, which I am so exccited for, then I can look into going back to school. I have been wanting to do that since I quit school in 2009.

I am also close to being able to drive, I just have to get my test taken to be able to get my practice permit, so I can start driving with a driving instructor, then I can get my license shortly after that. so maybe by february I will have my license!! that's my goal!!

also this week is my little brother's 10th birthday, on tuesday the 17th! I can't believe he is going to be 10 years old!!! that is a huge milestone. maybe I can find him and contact him on his birthday! that would be so neat!!

I am still working at wal-mart, but this year I hope to find a new job, something that I will like doing. I have almost been with wal-mart for 4 years, it will be 4 years this coming April!!

well I know this post is kind of all over the place, but that is why I gave it the title I did, these are just my thoughts for the week, and for this month so far! I hope you all are having a wonderful year so far!

Happy New Year!

Update for the last few months....

so I know I have been nonexsistant on this blog for the last few months, and the reason is because work has been so busy, and because I simply felt like I didn't have much to say on this blog, or I had too much to say that I wasn't sure what I wanted to write about.

sure there is so much that I want to write about, there have been many good times that my mom and I have had over the last several months, like going to the movies, and doing things with a friend in our ward, but I guess there has been no time to blog that stuff.

and halloween which was about a month and a half ago, that I would have loved to written about, but that too has come and gone like the wind. time is flying all too fast, way too fast for me to even be able to enjoy it.

this is my 5th year working in retail during the holiday season, and I am telling you, I am getting tired of it. it is getting a little old, because I can't sit back and enjoy what these holidays are all about. and I can't enjoy these months, instead they fly by and I am left sitting here wondering what happened to september when we are at the begining of november, or even december, it is crazy what happens when a person works in retail.

I recently started seeing a counselor to help with the different things that I am dealing with in my life, and today I just have to say that from talking to my counselor today, and talking about my grandma a little more, it sure helped. it helps to talk about that stuff, to have someone listen to you, no matter how long it has been that we have lost someone in our lives, it does not get any easier with time, it just gets bareable, but we still miss them. I think that talking about my grandma helped me recognize even more what a special time I had with here, when the other grandkids could have had that much time with her too.

I love my grandma, and will always remember her during this special time of year and always.

I will do an update a little later on me, and the few things we have going this week. we have some fun things planned.

Have a great day!!!

what I have been up to lately.....

so I realize I have not updated since my last post, but I will get there, eventually when I feel like it and have time....it is just that I have gotten so far behind on blogging and that these past few months have just gotten away from us.

this past weekend we celebrated my 24th birthday which was a blast! we just had a small party, but all the people I enjoy being around were able to be there, and my dad was able to even be there. I just wish I had some pictures on my computre from my party. I had such a great day on the 20th, it was a wonderful day! I got a lot of wonderful things that I have been using since then.

I received a new electric mixer with a bowl from my mom and some new cupcake cook books to use, which I have used to the fullest already! I just hope I don't wear the pages out too fast... :)

since I got my new cupcake cookbook I have made three recipes out of it, and they have all been a success! my next thing to try is frosting with my new mixer, and see if it does well with that!

also on my days off from work I go over to our friend teresa and wade's house and help teresa with her kids, and I was over there this weekebd helpng with sweet william. he is such a doll, I just think he is a cutie :) he is almost three months old, and is such a good baby.

Ashley is getting so big, and she is so cute, she looks so much like teresa! she is a total doll! it is fun spending time with these two little ones, and playing with ashley....she sure does keep you on your toes!

here are some pictures over the last little while that I have taken of both ashley and william....











I hope everyone hs been having a great summer!

Neurologist Appointment

today I had an appointment with my neurologist up at Primary Childrens Medical Center, right now I am a little too tired to write everything and am not feeling so well, but I will come back and update this in a little bit.

I found out some news that I am kind of unsure of what to think of, but in the end I know eveything will all work out :)

My Kitty....Bobbi

so let me clarify a few things, I know I haven't been the nicest to my kitty and I teased her quite a bit. and I may have somplained or said that she was a pain, but I have had my kitty for 11 years and I have nver been one full day without her....but today I have been two full days without my kitty.

she went missing on Monday Morning, and my mom hasn't seen her since, and I haven't seen her since sunday night, so it has been three days since I have seen my kitty.to say I miss my kitty is a HUGE understatement, I miss her terribly.

and to make things worse, she dissappeared one year to the day of my grandma passing away...so I am really having a rough time. I miss my kitty so bad, I wish I could find her, or find out what happened to her.

tonight my mom and I put posters in our neighborhood to make people aware, so hopefully we will hear something soon...if not I am going to really freak out!!

we have looked in every space imaginable in this house and my kitty is truely no where! it breaks my heart.....where ever she is, I hope she is okay. I love my kitty so much and I miss her a TON! if someone took her, please return her to me...that's all I ask!









I LOVE YOU KITTY....I HOPE YOU ARE SAFE AND WARM WHERE EVER YOU ARE, AND PLEASE COME BACK!

An Amazing Sunday once Again......

you know I just have to keep record of these wonderful sunday's that my mom and I have in our ward, we have the most wonderful ward of people and people we can call friends. they are such great people and we meet new faces each week, my mom and I go home and just hope that we can remember their names the next week.

there is this cute, sweet, little old lady in our ward, her name is sister shivaleyae(I know I didn't spell that out right)it is pronounced ( sha- valley-aeee)she always talks about how she is a wonderful listener or people would say she is a wonderful listener.

today our lesson was on talents, and there was a variety of talents in that room from musical talents to baking, to sewing, to organizing, to sports, etc....it was so neat to hear everyones responses...today was an amazing day.

(Pictured below is Paul Cardall at one of his previous concerts, this is to illustrate a musical tallent as I have listed above in my post) since I do not have a picture of me playing, he is the next best thing.... :)





I woke up at 7:30 AM and was ready by 8:15 or so, at least half ready, then I finished after my mom was ready so then we were a little behind schedule, maybe next week we will actually both be ready at the same time! that is the only thing about 9:00 church, is that to both be ready by 9:00 is sometimes a stretch, but it does happen...and it can happen, and it will happen. if there is a will there is a way.

so next week, I know it is going to be a good week, and we are going to be on time!

have a wonderful week everyone :)

Going to our Church....

so for almost the past mmonth my mom and I have been attending our ward every sunday. I have to say it is the best ward I have seen yet! we have some of the greatest people there in that ward. they are amazing people that make you feel welcome and loved, and accepted.

every sunday just seems to get better and better, every lesson is always a great one. and the teacher who teaches it is always wonderful! I wish I could have this experience everyday in my life all the time!

one thing I do know is that by reading my scriptures and praying daily I can become closer to heavenly father and feel of the spirit of the holy ghost, and feel of that presence when I am not at church. and do kind things for others throughout the week to make me feel good.

oh and I forgot to add that our building was dedicated today in a combined sacrament meeting with one other ward which was so amazing! it was the most wonderful experience today! I wish everyday was this good! oh and today I took my tithing to the bishop of our ward for the first time!

we read a little bit from doctrine and covenants today, and here is a verse I would like to leave you with about service. it is D&C 81:5 Wherefore, be faithful; stand in the office which I have appointed unto you; succor the weak, lift up the hands which hang down, and strengthen the febel knees.

I would encourage you this week to go and do something good for someone and be an example to others around you.

have a wonderful week!

Lindsay Dean Passed Away.....

pictured above is lindsay at age 3

so far all of you who know me, I follow quite a few heart kiddo's blogs. well last friday the 17th of june, two days before fathers day lindsay suffered a seizure which led to cardic failure and she returned to heaven on the evening of the 17th.

please pray for the difficult time that their family is having. a few days after lindsay passed away her grandpa also passed away, so their family is dealing with a lot of loss right now. if you would like to help out with funeral costs you may go to lindsay's blog at http://lindsaysheart.blogspot.com and click on the "donate" button to the right hand side of the screen. they could use all the help they can get.

as her mom had just gotten out of the hospital that week, so their family is dealing with a huge medical bill overload right now. they could use a lot of extra prayers for some time..

St. George Trip......

so this past weekend around my grandma's birthday we went to st. George. it was such beautiful weather up there, and we had such a fun time up there enjoying it!

we spent a lot of time outside, and got some sun. I spent some time in the pool and hot tub. it was a blast! they water was so refreshing, especially on the second day in the pool.

we shopped at a ton of stores, and had a fun shopping spree of our own (which we never get to do at home) so we enjoyed ourselves that weekend while we had the chance.

we so did not want to have to come home. I got skme cool new clothes which I love! and I have loved wearing! now it is getting too warm for the pants I bought and they might be too big for me by winter, we will see :)

but at least they are one more pair that is long enough for me until then.

my mom and I had such a blast, we so did not want to come home. when we were driving home we drove home it 100 miles of rain which was really bad, and a nerve wracking ride, and drive for my mom since the drivers in utah either speed in the rain, and ride your butt because you are going a safe speed, and they don't care that you are being safe, or they speed and go off in the ditch and therefore create rubber necker drivers in the rain....lovely! so that is what we dealt with some of the way home.

over all we had a blast and so were not looking forward to coming back to reality, and our real lives back home.

we are for sure going to go visit there again, or even better we are going on a bigger trip later this year!
