Hello!!!

Hello?! Is anyone out there? Sometimes I wonder if anyone even reads my blog. I wish people would comment on my nonsense. So please feel free to comment :)
Life is good right now people. I just absolutely love my job. I am so lucky to work with my best friends and amazing co-workers. Lately I've been shopping and going to random activities. Lately my new hobby is bowling. Some of my awesome friends go to Fat Cats every Monday night and I've become a pretty descent bowler. I am thinking that I should buy myself a bowling ball and some shoes.. at the DI of course. I think that I would bowl even better if I had that. I can just see me walking into the bowling alley with my legit bag. I would sit down, get my ball out and polish it with my special ball shining cloth...:)
Anyway, tonight I learned to make these super amazing cinnamon rolls. I will have to share the recipe once I make them myself. Check my postings later for the recipe.
I love Christmas time but I have been eating a lot of crap lately. Good crap of course. Help! I need a sugar intervention. All I've been eating lately is Chocolate, hot cocoa, pretzels with chocolate, cinnamon rolls, popcorn with chocolate drizzled, Oreo's covered in chocolate. I am on the verge of getting diabetes.

How can I be...

Sundays are absolutely amazing for me. No matter what mood I am in I always come home after church just feeling so hopeful and uplifted. Today was testimony Sunday and I loved sitting there and listening to these people testify of Jesus Christ. It is very sweet to see these people just pour their heart out to anyone who will listen. I love feeling the spirit. I am truly so thankful for the tender mercies of the Lord.
Some brethren from my ward sang a wonderful song that I just have to share with you guys. I am a fan of the song. It is called "How can I be". I posted a video of it. This song inspires me to be of courage and reminds me of the work that we have to do. This week I challenge myself to be more like Jesus Christ :)

"How Can I Be"....Enjoy!

Goodbye November...........

Another month has come and gone. Two birthdays, Thanksgiving, black friday madness and a 5k have come and gone. Great memories were made. November was a great month to reflect on my life and to just stop and count my blessings. My heart has been truly full of gratitude. I just want to write down some of the things that I am grateful for..

First of all I am grateful to be alive, the gospel of Jesus Christ, Heavenly Father, my savior Jesus Christ, amazing friends, family, Utah, prophets, the priesthood, my covenants, my amazing loving cute parents, my siblings, nature, snow, mountains, awesome job, food, clothes, wool socks, chocolate, hugs, the cutest niece in the world, education, scriptures, my ancestors, my culture, the sun, stars, moon, love, warm rain, tender mercies, miracles (they do happen everyday), glasses, snuggies, holidays, transportation, technology, small world, trials, hard times, agency, eternal families, straightening irons(what would I do without them?!), make up, burts bees, medicine, for the beauty of the earth and for the random people in this world that make life interesting. There are just so many things that I am truly grateful for that if I name all specifically it would take FOREVER!

I can't help but feel like the luckies girls in the whole wide world!

Thanksgiving was great and it was spent eating and talking. My little cousins were watching cartoons and we even colored some books. It was great. 

This past month we celebrated Gaby's 26th birthday! On the morning of her birthday I woke up late and I had forgotten it was her birthday and she asked me if she could borrow my coat and I said no. I am horrible. Later that night we went out to dinner and then came home and spent the rest of the night being silly and laughing. I can't imagine life without my little sister. She's amazing. She will give you the shirt off her back she is that nice. Just don't mess with her because she can take you down like a sack of potatoes. I mean it because it has happened to me!

The Santa Run was freezing! Remind me to never sign up for a winter run ever! It was 15 degrees outside and I was dying. We did jumping jacks right before the race while we yelled "Ho HO Ho!" I was dying of laughter. I felt like I was in "The Santa Clause" movie. My time was 33minutes and by the end of the race I was sweating inside my coat. It was a pretty sick feeling sweating inside a puffy coat. No wonder I was the only one wearing a coat. Duh!

Dear November,
How I will miss thee. My heart is grateful. I will miss your beatiful colors and good weather. Happy anniversary Mom, Daddy, Gaby, Steve, Glendy and Jared. Happy Birthday Gaby, Eddie and Lucky.
Love, Me.

Welcome December...the craziest month of the year...

You are a lost boy/girl...

We had the marriage talk at church today. They had a guy our age that was married talk about how wonderful marriage was. I just think it's awkward when we have those kinds of talks because they throw it right in our faces. It's like "Look at you..wasting your life when you could be married".
He started off by telling us that he felt sorry for single people because marriage was so great. I thought it was pretty funny! His talk was mainly focused on the Peter Pan Syndrome. Apparently I have it and most single people do.

Peter Pan syndrome is a pop-psychology term used to describe an adult who is socially immature. The term has been used informally by both laypeople and some psychology professionals in popular psychology since the 1983 publication of The Peter Pan Syndrome: Men Who Have Never Grown Up, by Dr. Dan Kiley. (Kiley also wrote a companion book, The Wendy Dilemma, published in 1984.) It is not listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, and is not recognized by theAmerican Psychiatric Association as a specific mental disorder.

I thought it was pretty interesting to hear about boys and girls that never want to grow up. When they face something serious even though it's good they run away. Apparently I am a lost boy and I want to be free and fight the pirates and of course never grow up!! hahaha! That totally sounds like me!!! Actually I feel more like Wendy who sews the shadow on to Peter Pan and that tells him what a Mom and a Dad is. She wants peter pan to grow up but he refuses to and so she leaves. Later Peter Pan returns to her home and time has passed by and Wendy is all grown up and has kids and he is still a silly boy. He feels sad but he was too scared to grow up.
My thoughts after hearing this talk was "I don't wanna be a lost boy" and "apparently I am a lost boy/girl". I hope you guys laugh because this is all funny to me:)
