AHHHH!

Only 4 more weeks of school!! And since I only go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays, that's only 8 more classes!!! I can't even believe how fast time is flying by. Then the wedding will be 4 more weeks after that!! I can't even wait, but there is still so much to do! Can't we just go to the temple and get married? haha, no I really am loving planning a wedding, it's just a ton of work! I've also got to start my internship for school, or else I won't be able to get my degree. That's mainly what is stressing me out. 120 hours really isn't that much, but I'm just stressed out about setting it all up and finding the time and the energy to do it. I know it will all work out, I just need to get it figured out ASAP! Everything is great, sometimes I just have to stop and breath and remind myself that everything is going to get done and that I CAN do it!

Crazy Day at Kohl's

I've been writing alot, but interesting stuff has been happening. That's what life's about right! haha Anyway, today was an interesting day. Today at Kohl's I was working at the register and I was helping this lady and all the sudden the power just totally goes out. I guess the wind was blowing way, way, way hard outside and so it knocked down a power line and the power was out all the way down Main Street in Layton. It was crazy! That's never happened before so we didn't really know what to do. Luckily there are emergency lights in the isleways so we could still see a little, but it was pretty dark. Then all the customers started freaking out that they weren't going to be able to buy their stuff, so we put everything on hold for all the customers and then we had to close the store. I thought they were going to let us go home, but we stayed and worked. They gave us all a flashlight and we stayed and worked to clean-up the store. It was pretty crazy! Anyway, that's my story for the day. Not too exciting, but interesting just the same!

I Love My Dad

What an inspiring day at school I had today. I surely do love my Doctrines of the Gospel class and the spiritual insight and inspiration it brings to me every single day! Our lesson today was particularly wonderful. It was on death. You may be wondering what could be so amazing about that, but it was wonderful. This girl in my class did the devotional and she relaid some experiences she's had in her life. Her dad died when she was in high school and some of the experiences she's had are just amazing. The spirit was so strong and our entire class sat perfectly still a whole 10 minutes after class just soaking up the spirit that was in the room. It was amazing. It made me miss MY dad. He's in Turkey right now. He's been there for a week and he'll be there for 2 1/2 more weeks. My dad truly is my hero and I miss him a lot when he's gone.

I love my dad because..

He's the most selfless person I know.

He always shares his things with us.

He does so much for our family.

He serves our country every day.

He always knows what I need to hear and just how I need to hear it.

He's always willing to listen.

He honors his priesthood.

He lets me make my own decisions.

He always tells me he loves me.

He always tells me he's proud of me.

He always supports me in everthing I do.

He is always working to improve himself.

He has such a strong testimony and knows so much about the gospel.

He loves my mom and shows it in all he does.

He's always there.

He is an example to everyone.

He is a great example of what a father should be.

Thanks dad! I love you!
