The weekend after my parents came I saw so many familiar Canadian faces. Jenelle got to come visit me. It was the best. Seriously. I miss that girl like mad. The moment we were reunited was beautiful. I waited for what felt like an eternity. They got stuck in traffic. I wish the moment of us seeing each other could have been caught on camera because it truly was beautiful. I would be lying if I said I didn't shed a tear or two of pure joy. If joy came bottled it would contain those tears. We went to the football game and then stayed up too late getting all caught up and doing girl things like our nails. Then next morning we woke up early and headed to Salt Lake with Lincoln, Shane and Emily to hit up some General Conference. We got all the tickets we needed as we walked down the street in like 2 minutes. It was awesome. We went to the first session and heard that angel of a prophet President Monson say that I can go on a mission right now should I choose to. That moment was so e...

There is just something about Canadians that I miss so much. I didn't realize that the USofA was actually a foreign country until I moved here and said garborator .

There are so many wonderful things that Canada has to offer, and so many wonderful people that I miss so much. I've been lucky. The last 2 consecutive weeks I've been blessed with visitors from the True North Strong and Free, and I miss them so much. My first visitors were Mom, Papahashi, Alana and Tracen Tracen and I enjoyed the Andy Warhol and Takashi Murakami exhibit at the MOA. It was really cool. Oh yeah and we got free food too. And Alana was there, but she was just being our official photographer.  Can you guess what would make Papahashi this excited?  It wasn't our free meal that we just ate, but that would be a good guess...

Do you remember when this blog was going to be my birthday gift to me? Quote: "We all do remember". close quote -Ang I made the url and then just left it there to collect internet dust. It just passed my semi-annual birthday and I figured I would regift this beautiful blog to me. Happy semi-annual birthday to me. I also thought it would be a great way to show off how great my life is and make all my readers jealous. Seriously it's going to be big- like by next week I will probably have 2 readers- like I said--BIG. I mean who on earth wouldn't want to read the blog of a girl who always has the wind blowing through her hair? (**disclaimer- I always do look like this when there is a slight breeze- just ask my mom) I could probably get you and 8x11 print of the first picture if you'd like that.
