My testomony

One thing that truly defines me is my beliefs and my faith. I am a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints. And I love Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ very much. I always have had the need for things to logically make sense to me, which can be a blessing and a curse. I remember one particular Sunday while sitting in church two women got up and began to sing a song. I did not know the song and they sang it in a different language, so of course I could not understand a single word. Yet, I was hit so fully in my heart. It was as if the words they sang made so much sense to me. And I could feel what they were singing was true and beautiful before God. This song left an everlasting impression in my heart.
            I know without a doubt that Heavenly Father lives and loves all of us. He has had his hand in my life on countless number of times. He is always there for us, just waiting for you to reach out and except his hand he has out screeched towards us.                                   
           I also know that God is the same now as he was than. He still speaks to us and loves us. He wants us to return to him. If we put our faith in him he will guide us to our full potentials. “The Lord really is the answer to it all. He’s the one who can open up your potential and teach you who you are and what you ought to do.” Elder Gene R. Cook

TRue friends

My best friend Emily means the world to me. Emily and I have a crazy story we became best friends when I was only 6 years old. Playing Barbies, monkeys, spying and everything else you can think of. Being next door neighbors when it was time for her to go home I would walk her to her house once we got to her house she would than turn around and walk me back to my house, needless to say we would buy another hour together until one of our moms would yell at us. It’s like we could never have enough time together. She has been there for everything in my life. A true find is someone who knows everything about you and still loves u regardless. The other night I was having a really hard time and Emily came in and sat next to me. She didn't know why I was crying yet hugged me and started to cry with me. I than had to make a run at 1 in the morning for French fries (some reason French fries always make me feel better) and Emily was right there with me ordering pies at McDonald’s to go along. I want to take this moment to let you know you are an angel in my life and I don't know what I’d do without you. and mcdonalds

Family

6 years and I still miss u everyday. Trials make you strong but some days you can be weak. Through all the heart ach in my life I have learned the important things. My family and the gospel are what I live for everything else can just fall into place. I will do everything to be with my family cause that is the most important thing to me.  till we meet again

                                     
I remember the story my sister (Kasey) always tells where her and my mom sat down to figure out how much they had spent on her wedding. My mom like me always suffered in math so she carried two numbers wrong making the price something ridiculous. instead of being 4,000. It came out to be something like 26,000. Instead of realizing she had made a math mistake right away she said  
 " holy crap Tom's (my dad) gonna kill me"

Our fancy Christmas when the electricity went out and we had to cuddle on the couch to stay warm. Instead of playing with our new electronic toys, and eating our dinner made for a king, we had to pull out the game boards and candles and eat cold ham. But that was my favorite Christmas of all.
