{ next year, when i'm older }

Thanks everyone (or the two of you) for commenting on my flower. I've decided along with being a photographer when I'm older (which is coming too fast!) I've also decided to do a couple other things. Haha


Here we go:


A vintage/retro/amazing dresser (I call this my find of the week!) The stake dance was a Decades theme so I went as the 70's. I knew everyone else would do something easy- 80's 50's stuff you can pull out of your closet. I needed something to wow the crowd and I did.



A cake decorator. I know it's amazing. I must be feeling hippie-ish this week! I went with a peace cake. For mutual the mom's and daughters each decorated a cake and learned some new cake decorating tips! I know...amazing!


An Ice Cream Truck Driver! Hahahaha JUST KIDDING!! This is 'Dad's Ice Cream' that came into our neighborhood. I would just eat the ice cream not sell it!



The photographer for the starburst commercials haha :D



I'm going to be a politician... yeah right! But I will get to vote next election (SCARY!). I've been reading up on the people running for President. This is who I find to be most qualified for the job right now. More later on my status regarding who I'm for.

Mother's Day and Sacrament Talks

Well today is Mother's Day. So I want to say a few things about my mom-

She is amazing. She is so loving and kind and patient with me. She helps me to have a greater love for the gospel and teaches me by example that I am a daughter of a Heavenly Father who loves me. She always looks at the positive things in any situation and is always encouraging me to be outgoing and make new friends. I love her so much. I don't know what I would do without her. She helps me with everything. I know she's always going to be there for me to help me. She is such a great example of how to live a righteous life. I love seeing her dive into the scriptures daily and take her calling so seriously. She really gives it her all.

Next, I would like to talk about church today. We had a really good sacrament meeting. Nic was the YM speaker today and I loved his talk. So I thought I would recap it- in a nutshell to the best of my ability at least.

His topic was education and he talked about how much his mom has taught him. Then he called other youth from the ward and asked them what their moms have taught them. It was very sweet how he talked about his mom.

So there's my shout out to my mom. Thanks for everything you do for me.

Gotta Have 'Em!

There are some things in life that you just crave depending on how your day is going. Today... It was skittles. The fruity little M&M look-a-likes. Usually I've got to have some chocolate to get me through my day. Skittles bring a burst of flavor and excitement and energy into your life.
Taste the Rainbow.
What's your craving?

A Good Laugh

A Documentary About Mormon History

So some lady makes a documentary about Mormons and PBS shows it. You can watch it here if you missed it on T.V. My seminary teacher encouraged us all to watch it if our testimonies are strong because it does have some different views in it I guess...

Watch it (it's 4 hours long! Yikes!) I'm watching it now. I'm sure I'll have something to say about it after I'm done. We're supposed to come with views and opinions and questions to seminary. We'll see how that goes...
