Asking Forgiveness?

haha well so I just read the first Paragraph of my prior post and my grammar is rubbish. I figure that all bloggers obviously attain the grammar skills to write effective blogs... but I ask for forgiveness.... I'm still a teenager. I text more than I talk. And my Family consists of a bunch of F.O.B.'s :) ( I love these fobs to death, don't get me wrong, but yes- grammar suffers.)

Long Overdue, Visiting, and Blessings

Yes, dear Bloggers- tis been to long since my last update.. But truth be told... life and all it's wonderful surprises haven't been so... surprising lately. All I've been doing really for the last few months is work, and save money for my mission. It's A great blessing that I owe my Heavenly Father grattitude for though, because you really can't find a job anywhere these days. Anyway, as many know once you are no longer technically a student at BYU, you can no longer be on the payroll... and inevitably in two weeks I will have lost my job. SO, I'm going to spend sometime with family in Oregon for a while. My favorite cousin Hayley, Uncle Richard and Aunt Gail, live in Ontario, and I'm going to try and "be an example" for Hayley :) Hayley is a great girl. She's very strong, intelligent, and confident, but she is also one of those girls who is not going to do anything that she doesn't want to for anyone, because she doesn't believe in trying to impress anyone. All in all she's an incredible girl, but she's never really attached to the spiritual matter of life, and I fear she's missing out on some happiness in her life, and we all want to share the happiness we experience everyday with those we love, because of our Savior. Anyway, obviously I won't be able to force her to do anything, but being an example is something I can do.

This past saturday I was blessed with the incredble experience and opportunity to receive my endowements. It was a nervewracking evening the night before. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't think, and I was super nervous. My mom had talked to me about the experience several times, and had said one thing in particular that really stood out to me, "if you are ready to devote your whole life to the Lord, and our Heavenly Father, you are ready for the covenants and blessings you will make and receive in the Temple." I always thought to myself that undoubtedly I would at any moment give my life for my Saviors sake, but that night as I got on my knees and prayed I realized how important and what it meant to really defend my God in any situation, time, or place. I thank my Heavenly Father for the peace and the joy that I felt, having entered into a covenant with him and learned my potential that I can reach. I am so thankful for the Sacred house of the Lord and for all the blessings that we can receive from attending his house. I have a testimony of the work that happens inside the temple, and although I may not fully understand it, I know I will find myself there much more often supping from the words which are spoken and learning from the ordinances that are performed there. I love the Lord with all my heart, all things testify of him and the glory of our Father in Heaven. This gospel is true. I am so grateful for the opportunity that I have to be a part of it. I'm so grateful for the opportunity to share the beautiful gospel with the saints of Paraguay. Heavenly Father truly does love us, and I have witnessed his hand from which Blessing flow in my life.

Language of love?

Per un giorno che prendiamo per celebrare l'amore e tutto il it' emozioni di s, esso realmente ferite. Manco l'amore, la manco, lo manco continuamente ho avuto e I' m. che ha bisogno ogni minuto manco con lei. Ha dubitato che la amassi o non ed ha rotto il mio cuore. Lo ha detto i' lavoro di t, lo ha messo nel miscelatore. Lei i' la t esita a dire che arrivederci ha premuto il tasto del purè ed ha alesato giù lo scolo. Ii, un naufragio. I i' la t crede che sia stato così ingenuo.

Fall Semester...

Well everyone, I've completed the first semester of my college career, and I can honestly say, I got my butt kicked, royally. It was one of the funnest semesters I have ever had! I lived life to the fullest, I laughed often and smiled much, and loved all at the same time. I can say, that I was somewhat foolish though, I had an opportunity, and I kinda sat on it. But alas! I have learned my lesson. As many may know I'm getting ready to serve a full time mission. It is coming very fast and all anticipation eats at me, but as many have done before me, I have made some resolutions! Ha ha so this semester I have decided to do all my homework all right now, and then all I have to do is study for tests and quizzes! Anyhow, here are a few pictures from last semester... enjoy. :)

These pictures are just a few friends of mine :) - at the game Me and Greg. The one with me licking my fingers was a pancake party at my friend Kelseys before the big game! :)
The pictues of me dancing are of me and my awesome dance partner! Her name is Megan and we took 3rd together at the BYU Dancesport Competition last semester!!
Ha ha and for you're information, I'm not that good, ha ha she got us there.
