Most Precious Treasures!

Okay, so I totally saw Toy Story 3 tonight with Andrew, Kyron and Amber. WOW, that movie was amazing. I didn't think it'd be super good, but it proved me wrong. I learned somethings from that movie, even though they were all pretty much cartoon characters. haha It really hit me in some parts of the movie (no, i didn't cry just yet) but it just showed me if you stick together, through everything and you don't give up one the people that mean the most to you, you really will be okay in life. Doesn't matter if you have a million friends that love you, but really if you have those close, true real friends you can trust no matter what. I had some names come into my head, that's for sure. I just had something in my eye.. Cough cough! haha The best part of the movie was when Andy was giving his toys to that precious little girl and he was giving woody away. THAT made me cry! He described him as his "most precious treasure" made me realize we all have those precious treasures. We might have to give them up, or loose them to know what it feels like to not have that person or thing in your life. Never take the people that do the most for you, for granted. They are the ones that you want to keep around. Don't put them away on the shelve and use them when your bored. They collect dust and will try and escape. Just kidding! When the girl has Woody wave back to Andy, that was another tear jerker. I just loved the movie. If you don't at least think about crying during this movie, maybe there is something wrong with you? just kidding, but seriously. There were so many life lessons learned in that movie. It's one of my favorites.

I've got a lot of "precious treasures" but one of my biggest treasures are my friends. They are half my world, probably even more than half. I don't know what I would do with out them. They are my pick me ups, always.

This is Taylor. She's a grand girl and she

has helped me through some tough times

even though she has her own to go through.

She is always there for everyone and has

been such an example to me. I love you

Taylor Olivia Jackson!

I know i've already posted this picture, but this one is

my favorite of these gorgeous girls. They are amazing!

I love each and every one of them. They know what its

like to be "down to earth" they are trusting and always

able to put a smile on my face when I need it. Sister love

forever! :]

This is Megan, she has been a lifesavor lately. I just love

her to pieces. She is always there for me. She listens all

the time she is real and knows what she wants in life.

It's easy to talk to her. She's become one of my great friends,

i love it and her!

Gretchen! I love this woman. We work

together, tan together, shop together.

pretty much she is amazing. I love having

her as a friend! :] she is incredible.

Meet Matt. A.k.a my brother!

This guy is amazing. I love him so much! He is

always there for me with advice, love and just

great times. I look up to him so much!

Each and everyone of these girls has taught me something

amazing in life.

What they've taught me!

Macy: Have fun and love life.

Chelsea: Love one love all! She's bomb at that :]

Taylor Jones: Doesn't matter what's going on, or if

something goes wrong, have a positive attitude and it will

end up amazing.

Taylor Jackson: smile that big smile of yours.

Angela: advice giver, like no other! I LOVE it.

This is Andrew, he is amazing. No joke :] I love spending

a lot of my time with him. I can just let go and be myself.

i'm not a different person around him, and that is

something that i love in someone. He always is making

me laugh and just being the sweetest boy!

These girls are indescribable. I LOVE them. They are

always always there for me, no matter what! They have

the best advice and they always get me. It's so refreshing

to have these girls in my life.

I seriously LOVE having all these people in my life!

These girls are just phenomenal, no joke!

Each and every person in this picture has done some

sort of miracle for me in my life. :]

I still believe in saying "save the best for last" yeah, it's

weird but I believe it. This girl is incredible! We've been

through some of the craziest things in life, and some of

the most sweetest things that we've been lucky to be able

to experience. She's been my other half and I couldn't have

done or gone through some of the stuff I did with out her.

She is definitely a huge part of my life even though things

have changed and we've become very busy and we've kinda

drifted. Not my favorite, but some of the greatest things in

life test us too. Miss you, best. :]

I wish I could write something about each and every person

that has done something for me in my life, but that would take

years, no joke. I'm so blessed for everything I have in my life

and I wouldn't trade it for the world!

Missing things...

So honestly, complete and total honesty. I'm missing somethings I use to have. Is that bad? Makes me feel kinda, weird? I don't know. I guess I shouldn't be missing them cause technically, I still have them. I guess I miss the way it use to be. So sad, and kinda pathetic. But hey, it's true.

What I miss.....

* my baby blanket

* when I could play with barbies

* When people would call, instead of always texting

* True people ( we have them, but they are rare.)

* Realizing what you have, and not letting it go

* Kissing behind the flag-poll in elementary... we ALL did it

* Play dates

* Tea parties

* Dress up

* Being able to have others keep secrets

* Love, it's here but really? where..

* Comfort in being alone, like that'd happen.

* Not being afraid to be you

* Real looking people, if that makes sense

* When my mom would make me snacks after school. HELLO, still in school.

* When having lots of "toys, cars, clothes and make up, money, bags, shoes" to play and have wasn't what made you. you made yourself.

* Checking under the bed for monsters

* Night lights. still have one, but it's dead

* Happy People. This world seems un-happy sometimes

* Babysitting

* Having an walkman

* Wearing ugly clothes that use to be in style.

* When the world didn't revolve around facebook.

* Mostly, i just miss life. Basically what i'm saying is don't go through life thinking that you need to be someone you aren't. Remember the good ol days when you had to worry about what your mom packed in your lunch, or how she did your hair and how sad it looked sometimes when she was done. Honestly, I miss those days. I'm glad I have my today, tomorrow and forever. But still, life was easier when we were kids. Admit it, you know it's true.

Stressed, but very Blessed..

Wow, school! Never thought it would get the best of me but it definitely has. I've never had to be a crazy "studier" to get good grades. I can listen, repeat and be able to remember almost all of it. But with this class that i've been taking, it has shown me differently. Never thought I'd say this, but school, you win.. For now!

Other than school kicking my rump, life has been great. Ups and downs, but life wouldn't be life with out them.

I can say things definitely turn around for everyone, and in the craziest ways. I love the blessings we get from being obedient and doing the small things in life that make up such a big part in other ways. I've learned patients, lots and lots of patients. School, work, Friends, My knee, my family, my dirty room, my laziness. I've have lots to work on.

Christ-like. Big word, small actions. I've been trying so hard lately to be "christ-like" Fill my heart with lots of love, and just give it to everyone. I don't know why it's been so difficult lately, but it's getting better and I am so happy about it!

Lot's of crazy things have been going on and I love it. Take a look :]

These girls are WONDERFUL! :]

(Left to Right)

Krista, Lexa, Michelle, Me, Brenna!

Okay, i know what you're thinking and no it's not..

It's Non- Alcoholic, promise!

Andrew && Mae :]

We're bowling.. Doesn't look like it!

Date Night with Andrew at Makarohnee grill. Yes I know

that I spelled Macaroni wrong! haha

We ended up at sonic, I was suppose to be studying.

Kyron and Metzli. Love them :]

Me, Andrew, Metz, and Kyron!

Me and Metz! I LOVE her. She leaves me to go to Utah.

I am so excited for her and the adventures ahead of her.

Mac, your getting the best Make up woman ever! :]

Allie has always been the best about letting us come over

and hang out at her house. These people are amazing!

Fish, Josh, Me and Thatch! :]

These girls are adorable! i love my friends.

"To be irreplaceable, you must be different."

It's almost 4 in the morning, and I can't sleep. Typical me! I guess I just have a lot on my mind and since it's so late, I don't really have anyone else to talk to and it gets old thinking out loud maybe hoping someone will wake up somewhere and text you "Hey, are you asleep" Always thought that would be crazy. I'm sure they wouldn't want to listen to whats on my mind though. It's like a roller coaster of thoughts. I'm not in love with it. I like to think, but too much silence makes me worry, and when I worry I think, when I think, I get confused. I over think sometimes, not all the time but definitely do sometimes.

Amanda got Baptized. I am SO proud of her! :]

Going quading with this boy is always an adventure.

Thatcher is amazing! :]

I've met some of the greatest people lately

and I love it. Here are some pictures of

everything i've been doing lately!

Getting Bahama Bucks w/some of the Krew!

* Jessica, Kari, Me, Jordan & Taylor at the

midnight showing.

Some of us being crazy at Paiges Birthday Dinner.

I just look stupid. oh well!

I got in a quading accident last week, look who came to

Urgent Care with me? yeah, more pictures to come!

*Story; I was quading with a bunch of friends, 5 minutes

before we are suppose to pack up and get ready to go

back home i might add. I'm sitting at our site waiting

for us to load the quads up. Out of no where comes my

lovely friend Scott going about 30. He was being his

crazy old self and wasn't paying attention like he should

have been doing (which, who really does right?) and he

didn't see me sitting on my quad and he comes and Tbones

me on my left side. I of course go flying off and so does he.

My quad rolls, his rolls on top of me & then i find myself

laying face flat on the ground. Next thing I know 5 seconds

later I have people surrounding me. I have some of the

greatest/most helpful friends. I'm glad they were there to

help me. Kari took me to Urgent Care (along with Thatcher

coming to visit) we had a great time messing around with

all of there equipment. We got to know everyone very

well and had some great laughs & talks. Instead of feeling

pain all I could do was smile and laugh my way thru it.

I'm so lucky and blessed that it wasn't anything worse.

Just waiting... Like always!

Never leave her alone with a glove & a self timer camera.

Me, Kari, and Kari. Yeah, TWO Kari's...

Turned into more of a play date than a visit. haha

As for Scott, Karma hit him the next week long boarding!

just kidddding.

*My life is Incredible*

I had the time today to just have a me day. Want to know how I spent the day? I slept in, got up. and automatically started to clean my room, my bathroom, my closet. I did all my laundry, cleaned out everything. I even did it with me bad knee, I was very impressed. I always feel so much better coming into a clean room. I don't know what it is, but after your tired of spending countless hours cleaning, it's always worth it in the end. I was writing in my journal and I thought of something that I thought was cool. When your dirty, your not living a clean life. It's hard, frustrating, it gets you angry or upset. But once you take the time to really organize and clean yourself up it starts to feel fresh, happy, calm. I take that the same way as we repent. We always feel so much better when we are clean. Random, yes. True? Most definitely.

Me and Jordan :]

Hanging out at the Usual. QT gas stations were dreams

really do come true.

Gorgeous friends! I love them.

No matter what happens in our lives, or how crazy

we might get, or how crazy we might be. You'll always

be the same person to me. My Best. :]

My thinking process!

You might not think I have one of these, but oh boy do I ever. I love to think, that might be weird but it's fun. Sometimes in the end i'm upset that I thought so much about one thing and not so much about the other. But what's been lately on my mind is how Trials come in the forms of blessings. i always think to myself, why should we love our trials? How come my trials might be bigger than someone else's, and why is it happening to me? Lately things have been difficult to me. School is tough, always has been. Friendships have struggled and that's my least favorite out of all of them. But honestly, in the end i'm gaining something better and the only person that makes me feel that way is the Lord. He know's what he is doing with my life, I just need to trust him more on it. Even though I wish I could have what I want now makes me more excited to see what I'll be getting in the long run. Either its something good, or a lesson that needed to be learned.

Well I think it's time for me to get to bed! Hope you had fun stalking :] haha
