Engagement Pics Round Two!!!!

Well what another crazy week1 We just finished our second round of engagement pictures and they went real well! I am finally in the last weekend of my summer school classes and it has been really crazy and busy. Today I have worked on a 10-page paper for the last 8 hours! My brain hurts! haha I have just 4 more days of class and then it is off to Colorado to spend almost two weeks with my family!. I am excited to take Tom to Cortez and show him why I left in the first place! haha, no its a nice place and I am pretty lucky. I also will be playing in a softball tournament that i normally play in every year in a small town near Cortez called Mancos. It is so much fun!. We are also going to stay at my cabin, go fishing, hang at the lake, show him around the town, visit family and friends, and also meet my baby nephew for the first time! I cannot wait. I actually just finished his baby present and I will post a picture of the final project as soon as I show his mom!

Next Month: Complete Tom's groomsmen pics and get ready for school!!

What a WEEK!

Well it has been a tough one for us. We haven't had as much adversity as now. Satan is really working on us because he knows we are doing the right thing! We have each other and that it the best part of all! both of our cars broke down this week! haha that was hard but we made it work! The best thing about this week was on Wed. the 7th of July, my best friend had her baby! I am dieing not to be there with the new baby boy and my bestie. She named him Tayson Ray and he is absolutely beautiful and perfect in every way! I am hoping to continue working hard in school and it will be over in 2 Weeks I CANNOT WAIT!! Also this weekend i will be traveling up to Provo to pick up my wedding dress and Tom's wedding band. I am so excited to see how his ring turned out! Then the following week, we are headed to CO to hang with my family, show thomas around and hang with the new baby!!!!

My Little Sister Is Coming!!

I am so excited that my little sister is coming to stay with me for a month! We are going to have a blast! She is such a great little sister and we have really grown close since I have moved away from home! She will be starting softball in August so I am planning on kicking her into shape while she is down here. I know that she isn't very excited about that and that she thought she was coming to stay with me to relax and have some fun in the sun but, I have some other plans in mind too! We will still have fun in the sun but I want to get her ready!

Other things going on right now... Well I just ordered the birth announcement cross-stitch that I am going to design for the new little guy. MY best friend is pregnant back home and I couldn't be more excited for him to come. He is due on the 24th of July and I want to make him so many things! I guess I better hurry and get started!!

As for the wedding, I haven't really been planning anything this week. This week seemed like it was strictly homework for my summer classes! I stayed super busy with that! Tom and I are traveling to Provo in a week or so and then I will be able to jump back on the wedding train!

As for Tom, he is doing great! He is busy working every night and getting fit for football season. I am so excited to watch him play! We have sand volleyball tonight and we both always look forward to that along with attending the temple weekly.

I think that is about it for this post
SEE YA!!

Engagement Pics!!

Tom and I took our first set of Engagement Pictures last week!! It was so much fun but so bloody hot!! We had a great time with our photographer and I cannot wait to see how they turned out! Coming Soon!!!!

Hardly Summer

Well I am back from Colorado and what a great time I had there with family and friends. It was one of the first times (since I have been away from home) that I wasn't ready to leave yet! But I did, and now it is back to the real world! I have school 4 days a week and I am also working 2 jobs. The more money the better!!! But, I am so very tired already. I didn't realize that the Summer school schedule could be so ridiculously time consuming. I spent the first Summer Saturday, in my house, studying and completing homework for the upcoming week so I wouldn't get behind with school and work! I love being busy, but boy is it hard! I haven't gotten to see Thomas as much as I have wanted but thats ok. He is very busy with his stuff and, it seems that my day starts at around 7 and doesnt end till around 6. So about then, we get together and do something. On Tuesday evenings we have Institute and then on Thursday, we go play sand volleyball! Its a lot of fun and I couldn't be more happier! Busy busy with school, work, and wedding plans but I wouldnt have it hardly any other way! I am trying to get as much of my school work done as possible before my little sister comes and stays with me for a month! I am real excited about that and I am ready to kick her into shape for highschool softball. I don't think she will enjoy it nearly as much as I will but that is ok!! :) So for this month, work, and school and for next month, Work, School, Sadee, and then a trip home at the end of the month!
I love it!!!

Sacrament Meeting Today!!

I have been touched by the Spirit many times during church, but I loved the Spirit I felt today! The missionaries in the area were able to speak to us today. I didn't realize till about half way through of the feeling i had inside me. What a blessing in my life to have worthy Priesthood holders around me! I couldn't help but think today about my cousin on his mission in Alabama. Everything he has given up for the past two years, to be able to go to a foreign area ( to him) and teach the gospel. I am so thankful for his service to the Lord and to our family. I also couldn't help but think about my uncle that just passed away a couple months ago and the choices he made in his youth, to become a worthy priesthood holder, to go on a mission, and then to raise his family in the church to know of the gospel. How important it is in our every day lives to keep the commandments of God and the covenants we made with him when we were 8, and how are lives depend on our choices to get through this trial of life to reach our ultimate goal, to live with our Heavenly Father again. I'm grateful for my uncle, for the love he showed me, for the lessons he taught me, for his smiles, his love for me and most of all his love for Heavenly Father. His example shows all that knew him what he stood for up to the day he reached his ultimate goal. I'm thankful for his son, a full time missionary, who chose to step away from his life for two years to take care of the Lord's work. To bring more people to the gospel so their generations will follow their example. I'm grateful for my cousin and for his love in Christ just like his dad!
