Senior Awards,Graduation, Promotion, and Baptism, oh my!

Last week was a crazy long week for my family! 

Wednesday was spent at the high school for Senior Awards night! We went to support my brother and were very surprised and happy for the awards he recieved. The one I enjoyed the most was the boy athlete for the year!! (Just because I also got it my senior year) so it was fun to get to share that experience with him, and we both recieved it from our dad which made it that much better!! 

Thursday night was graduation!! Ahh I couldn't believe my baby brother was graduating!! It seems like only yesterday we were playing baseball together. He has changed so much, and I am so happy and proud of the young man he is turning into! He may not being going to college but he is going to do the thing that is best for him, and I can't wait to see what he does in the future. 

Friday my cousin Ana had her 8th grade promotion! It is crazy to think how much she has grown, and that she is going to be a freshman!! I remember helping her with softball, babysitting her, and tons of family memories. I am so excited to see how she takes on the next four years of her life as a high school student!! I can't wait to watch her grow into a wonderful young women, and see how much she will change and be an example to her younger sisters. 

Saturday my cousin Taya chose to be baptised. What an expereince that was! I am so proud of the spunky, fun, loving, girl she is turning into. She has, and most likely always will go to the beat of her own drum, she is fearless, and not afraid to be different. Taya has taught me so much the last year of living in Moab, that I am so grateful she is my cousin. She is going to do great things with her life, whether it be an example to her family, a loving friend, or whatever else she has the drive to be! 

Last week was a busy fun filled week of memories with my family! We fight at times, and there are times I get so annyoed with my family, but I would do anything for them! 

Catch up Jan. 2015-March 2015

Well its been a while since I've caught you guys up with what's been going on in our lives!


January:
Landon and I weren't very busy this month. We just have been continuing to adjust to our new lives in Moab and taking it day by day! I'm still working at the elementary school and it has been a great experience! I've learned so much from the teachers I work with and have a plan to switch to WGU this summer to finish up my elementary education degree! By the looks of it I will be done in 1-2 years, and I'm so excited to be that much closer to my career!!!! Landon is still working with Mountainland in Monticello and things are surprisingly busy for this time of the year!


February:
We weren't very busy this month either! I think the most exciting thing that happened was the Patriots won the Super bowl!!!!!!!!! It was such a good game and a real nail bitter. We watched the first half with my parents, brother, Taya, Elsie, and my grandparents over at my parents' house. We decided to come home and watch the last half I case if the Patriots lost, which it looked that way as the second half started. We were sure the Seahawks were going to win, but thank goodness for Malcom Butler (: Its safe to say we are going to keep some our traditions going once the season starts back up, which we are excited for because our lives are boring without football.


March:
This month was a little more exciting for us! Landon turned 23, Taya turned 8, and my grandma Karmen and Grandpa both had birthdays too! We ended up doing one big birthday party for them all! It was fun getting all of our family together to celebrate.
I also had to end up getting glasses because my vision has gotten so bad on my right eye due to the fact I was hit with a Frisbee when I was 12. Well that damage finally caught up with me and I will eventually have to have surgery on it but for now I'll stick with the glasses!




So maybe our lives haven't been too exciting but I wouldn't change my life for anything! I have a great husband that loves me and treats me better than I ever thought I could be treated, and even though not much has happened in our lives the last few months, I wouldn't want anyone else to walk through this crazy thing we call life!
