U of U gymnastics


We got a picture! (even if it was in the parking lot)
I sure love this girl, and although I am happy for her upcoming wedding, I am going to miss her terribly when she moves away. Love you Becky.

Spring

In light of the lovely spring weather we currently have in the Salt Lake Valley (aka: snowy blizzard mess), I thought I'd warm things up a bit with fun springtime activities enjoyed when the weather actually resembled spring.


The 'Elizabeth House'!!! It's destiny... too bad the building is kinda (ugly) run down.



Anyone been to Memory Grove Park? It's such a beautiful and hidden park located just northeast of temple square. There's a trail/canyon that goes for miles! Nick's words: "I think we walked 50 miles!" - if only. (If I could do that, I'd be running the full marathon rather than the half)

MLS Cup


Yeah we drooled over it... what of it?!
(For those of you that don't know, Real Salt Lake - Utah's pro soccer team won the national championships, and this is their trophy along with a few of the players. Don't worry, I would have never known were it not for Nick's obsession with RSL.)

Does anyone ever feel like this?

Accepted


Graduate school here I come! (Well, first I must find the financing... oh boy) How did anyone else finance their grad school? Any good suggestions for me??

Sweet Dreams

Can you believe I used to sleep on this?


If you can't believe it, you're right! I didn't used to sleep on it.
So then I bought this....

And I still don't sleep very well... Which has brought me to the conclusion that I am just a terrible sleeper - regardless of the bed.
So why did I spend $400 on a mattress just to find out it's not the mattress that causes my sleep problems? Oh, the foolish choices we make!

Help!

How come I can't upload pictures? It just sits there and says it's working, but nothing happens??

You are Loved

I want to share a wonderful quote with you from a talk by Elder Holland. I hope this will help brighten your day and lift your spirits; especially if you are in need of a little lift as I was when I read this.

"Brothers and Sisters, I testify that no one of us is less treasured or cherished of God than another. I testify that He loves each of us - insecurities, anxieties, self-image, and all. He doesn't measure our talents or our looks; He doesn't measure our professions or our possessions. He cheers on EVERY runner, calling out that the race is against sin, not against each other. I know that if we will be faithful, there is a perfectly tailored robe of righteousness ready and waiting for everyone, 'Robes... made... white in the blood of the Lamb.' May we encourage each other in our effort to win that prize is my earnest prayer, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen."
-Elder Holland
