"I must say that it is going immensely."

I am greatly, exquisitely and profoundly blessed with amazing people in my life. Wondrous Moms{yes, I have more than 2}, one amazing Dad, friends, roommates, and Church leaders. Utah is not easy--if you thought it was. Life has truly never been harder. Or better. "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." And it's not just because of BYU curriculum.

We sang this song in Relief Society last Sunday and I started tearing up. The last verse struck me. And it's a song you and I sing all the time. It's all vigorous and upptiy but there I was being all girly and crying.


Do what is right,
be faithful and fearless.
Onward, press onward,
the goal is in sight.
Eyes that are wet now
ere long will be tearless
Blessing await you
in doing what's right!

Do what is right;
let the consequence follow.
Battle for freedom 
in spirit and might;
and with stout hearts 
look ye forth till tomorrow.
God will protect you;
then do what is right!




{Photo taken by this guy.} And I can't wait to go here. Spiritually speaking I can go right now! But technically speaking, it is closed today and I left my wallet at a gas station in Kingman with my recommend in it..  Long story shortened--It is in the mail. {Long story coming soon}

Let us all just admire Utah for a minute. C'mon haters, just for a minute. You can do it. Utah is absolutely gorgeous. The scenery here is breathtaking. I love the mountains, I love the rolling hills.. 

Time for some Trivia!
Do you know how tall the statue of Moroni is, that is on top of the Provo Temple? 
Without looking it up! 
Duh.

    My guess is 23.

    Abby said she hates you and will not play your silly game.

    1. Brian was closest!! Moroni is 13 feet tall! Terrifying height--I don't know why all the ladies want a man like him..

      When did Abigail start hating me? After all those late night talks her and I would have, what a jerk.
