I Once Was Little

This is an updated picture of us "little" girls. Sheri had to leave early, so she was unable to be in the picture. Brandi is the one on the top left. Becki (The beautiful Bride), Me, and down on the bottom is Mary Ann. It was fun to all be together again. Lots of memories!!!


I thought this would be fun for you to see. Can you pick me out of the croud? This is a picture of me with my childhood friends and my little sister. Every Christmas we would run over to each other's house to see what Santa had brought them. This particular Christmas Santa brought us all dolls. We must have been good girls....but then again..when wasn't I a good girl?? :)

Swimming Hole

This weekend we had quite a few visitors. My sister, Susan, who lets me live with her, just had a new baby on July 14th, so everyone wanted to come see the little tike. You can only do so much at home with several people in one small house so we took an excursion to a hot spring to swim. There was also a cold pool (Thank Goodness). It was a lot of fun. It is always fun when family and friends come to visit. This is a picture of my nephew Ethan and I coming out of the cold pool, on our way to the hot pool. Isn't he adorable!!?? He's pretty spoiled by his Aunt Tracie. I hope I have kids this cute!!

Farmer Wanna-beeeeees

This is me with my friend C.C. After years of promising me she would come visit me in Idaho, she has finally made it. This is us sitting in the middle of a field here in Rexburg. I am sporting my brother Ben's cool hat.

C.C. is also a great friend to me. She always gives a listening ear, and great advice. I give her a hard time a lot, but what are friends for??? :) I am very blessed in the friend department.

Katie Grinder

If it weren't for my friend Katie Grinder, I think I would go nuts. We have a lot of fun together. She is a great friend. She definitely deserves a spot on my blog. We serve together in the Relief Society Presidency, and we work out everyday together, and we hang out all the time...so I'm around her enough to be able to say she is WONDERFUL!! This is us just hanging out. (She has a digital camera!) Most of the pictures I have are because of her and her camera.
This picture is a picture of Katie at our last Enrichment night. We had a service auction, and she did and Excelent job as the auctioneer. (I'm not sure how to spell that.)

Swimming Pro

So...along with not eating sugar, my friend Katie and I have taken up working out every night . Our latest craze is swimming. We started out flopping around in the water. (Can you just picture it??) And believe it or not...now I can swim in a straight line. Even with a short arm!! I've been praticing a lot!!!

Anyway, we're practically pros now, so It's time I learned to dress the part. So here you have it! Me....a professional swimmer! (With a Wal-Mart Swimming cap....compliments of Katie)

Birthday Bash

On July 10th, I turned 25. I'm getting old! :) I had a great day with family and friends. We had a BBQ and ate lots of good food. I haven't eaten sugar (as in cookies, candybars, cake, etc.) for a couple of months now. This a picture of me enjoying my birthday cake. Chocolate cake with mint frosting. (Compliments of my sister Susan) It sure was tasty!!! The cute girl in the background was my trainer from the mission field, Flor Alvarado. She's super cute. She's also here at BYU-Idaho studying. It's fun to have her around and have someone to practice my spanish with.

let's see

Isn't he cute?? This is my nephew Ethan. His new thing is picking his nose. He always has a finger up his nose.
Don't touch the Cheetos, they're HIS! And he's not afraid to tell you either!!
