things that make me smile

I was reading my friends blog, where she listed things that made her happy, when I decided that I wanted to make a list of things that make me smile.

• Jesus Christ
• Pictures of my niece and nephew (they're more adorable than any other children in the world!)
• Family in General (Parents, sisters, brothers, in-laws, cousins, etc.)
  
• Kaylee and Charli (My Roomies)
• Tangled
• Ice Cream Sundae's with Rainbow Sprinkles
• People who hold doors open for other people
• Mail in my mailbox (especially letters from missionaries!)
  
• A's on papers
• Compliments on my eyes (Thanks - I got them from my mom and dad! Aren't they great parents!?)
• Funny comments on fb
• Those who appear to be following their dreams
• Surfing
• Chocolate Chip Cookies
• my hair (most days - Thanks Britt)
• music
• Senior Missionaries
• You

Thanks for reading this. Just know, a lot of things make me smile, but these are the few I could think of right off the bat.

surf's Up!!!

I officially have my very own surfboard!!! And I love it!!!!!!

Here's my new baby! Thank you mom and dad for this unbeatable Christmas present! (Also, thank you Erin for picking it up for me! And thank you Max for teaching me how to surf!)


I went out with my board for it's first time and I stood up for a long time. It was the longest I have ever stood up before. Unfortunately, it was hard to get a picture of it because it happens at random!
Now I go out lots! I love it and cannot wait to go again... every time! Surfing is unreal!!!!!

tribute to a roomie

This happens with me and my roomie Kaylee ALL the TIME!!!!!

I have the most amazing roommate in the entire world! I am so thankful that Heavenly Father sent her to me. She is the chocolate in my brownie! She is the cinnamon in my rolls (weird)! And she is the Rapunzel to my Flynn Ryder!

Someone told me today that we were made for each other. And I think she was right. Kaylee is my kindred spirit. :)
We're like the best friends in Singing in the Rain!!!
We are like Rapunzel and Pascal! (I know I referred to Flynn earlier but... that's more of a romance thing... so never mind!)


Oh and one more thing, Kaylee just made "The Best Valentine's Day Ever!" Good luck to that future husband cause this one will be hard to top!!!

Happy Valentines Day!!!

It is that time of the month where everyone shows each other how much they love each other. Well, for those who have a spouse or a significant other. I supposed everyone else can show each other how much they love each other still, such as roommates, best friends and co-workers. But I'll be the first to admit that it's not super fun without a boyfriend. Now that I'm thinking about it, I don't think I have EVER had a boyfriend during Valentines day. Oh well, I can still dream about it.

Just for fun I decided to list movies that I would want to watch on Valentines Day

• Australia
• Tangled (totally counts!)
  
• While you were Sleeping
  
• You've got Mail
  
• Just Like Heaven
• A Walk to Remember
• The Princess Bride
• Sabrina
• Ladyhawk
• and I'm sure there are more... but that's all I can think of right now.

Love you all and hope you have a great Valentines Day!!!!

Good things come to those who wait?!?!

So my application to go to Taiwan is in and I had my interview today over the phone. I have officially finished all I can until the ILP decides to accept me or not.

Isn't it gorgeous?!?! I really want to live there for 6 months! Although, I've heard it's like Hawaii, so if I do move there, it's really like I'm not moving at all! I guess there's that language switch but... I hear mandarin all the time in Hawaii too! :)

In my English class, we read this little line and it made me feel better about waiting to see what I'm going to do with my life for the next year.

Teach us to care and not to care. Teach us to sit still. -T. S. Elliot

I want to go somewhere so bad! And I want to go with someone! And I would love to work with little kids! I hope going to Taiwan is part of the Lord's plan, cause then I'll go for sure. But it's up to him, so we'll have to wait to see what happens.
