Lucky

I'm lucky
I know that I probably don't say it enough but I am so lucky and I am loving my life.
Living in Ephraim is so fun and I have the best roommates!

I love living with my friends and watching a movie every night and talking until I fall asleep. Having my friends around me all the time just makes everything so much better.
Our friend Harrison got a puppy a while back and he is over a lot and I absolutely love him!
Although I love living here, I do miss home so much!
 I'm so glad that I have so much support from my family!
D1 is just not the same since Jade moved out. Miss her so much!!!!!!!
And these girls
I know that sometimes life can get hard but I'm so glad that I have so many people in my life who I love and I know are there for me.So, I consider myself lucky.

The start of something new

These past few years have probably been the most exciting, toughest, fun and life experiencing years of my life. I have gone through and learned more than I ever thought I would and I have met some of the most amazing people and have had the best memories that will last for a lifetime. As I look back I can remember these people and things that I have done but I don't remember all the fun times and different things that I have done and gone through that have gotten me to where I am today. I don't want these things to slip my mind and to not be remembered, that is why I am going to be writing this blog. I am hoping that I can write about the stuff that is going on in my life and write about the things that I am doing. A lot of them will be stupid stories like playing baseball in our apartment with oranges or having a snowball fight and making snow angles in the parking lot but it's the stupid things that I have done that end up meaning the most.
 
Today was just a regular day for my life living in D1 . I woke up, got ready and went to school. On the way home I was driving in my car with Lexi and Ashley and we stopped to get the mail. Ashley has been waiting for quite sometime to get a letter from Brady, who is her missionary, and as Lexi pulled all the mail out of our mailbox she had two letters from Brady in her hand. Ashley saw this and jumped out of my car as fast as she could. Lexi decided to get a run for it and to make Ashley fight for these letters. Lexi and Ashley ran into the road fighting over the letters so of course I jump out of my car while it's still running and go to help Lexi play keep away. I got the letter and ran back to my car with Lexi. Ashley chased after us and jumped onto my lap and I continued to drive with the door open and half of Ashley's body hanging out of my car. When we got home Lexi ended up giving the letters to Ashley but it was a fun game while it lasted!

Living in Ephraim has been one crazy ride and I'm not ready for it to be over. I have learned a lot about myself and other people. I'm so grateful for this experience and to my parents for letting me do this. I can't wait to see what else is in store for me and I hope that I am able to remember how I get to where I will be and who was by my side with me!
