Update

First, I just want to say that goodbyes are not fun! Not fun at all. Marcus (my most awesome cousin ever who I swear is my twin separated by a year) came to Utah to visit before he left on his mission. It was great hanging out with him and showing him around BYU campus and Provo, but now he's gone and I won't see him for two years. Boo.

Next.
I have been on a Pinterest craze lately! But I actually did some of the crafts I pinned so it was worth it! My apartment is actually decorated and has proof that girls live in it now!
Next.
I hate Wal-Mart. Sandra bought her bike there and I rode it home for her. Flat tire in less than 20 min. How about you sell a more shotty bike next time huh?! It was a funny time though. Just know that walking your bike is really embarrassing.
Finally.

I love the church. Truest thing out there.

General Conference

I am so excited for General Conference!! I have been doing a lot of thinking about the church lately and I am so excited to hear from the prophets. I feel so incredibly blessed that I am able to hear from men who have such a strong testimony of God and are able to guide us to what we need to do. I know they are servants of God and can communicate with Him. Also, I love Mormon Message!

FHE (fun, happy entertainment)

Yea! A girl from my FHE just came by and let us know that we are doing linedancing for our activity tonight. YEEE HAWW!!! I love any kind of dancing and the fact that we are dancing as a group makes me super happy. Getting the chance to be goofy and uncoordinated will bring people together better than anything :) Also I'm just glad that we have FHE because it's always fun.

Sidenote, I am watching "Killer Outbreaks" right now....It's a miracle I am still alive. Germs are scary!!!

P Party

I'm going to start out his blog post with my story of the three P's: Poop, Pee and Period. So during the summer I worked at Gold's Gym in the child care center. It was so fun because I worked with my cousin and some of the kids (Guel, Aranza, Broaden, Kayle, Kale and LeBre to be exact) were super cute and humored me by dancing with me during our dance off dance parties. However, on my last day of work this baby I was holding decided to take a big old dooce and, without me knowing, it exploded out of her diaper onto my arm!! When I handed her to another worker so I could start story time, I noticed a big, gray and yellow (seriously what was she eating) clump of poo. I ran to the bathroom, almost vomited and said ADIOS POOPY GOLDS GYM and biked home (I think I drove a car a total of 5 times this summer). So that was the first P.
Second, I was at Priest Lake in beautiful Idaho for my family vacation. It was going great up to this point. I had enjoyed lots of skiiing and tubing. But then, sitting around the camp table, a red liquidish thing lands on my arm. Thanks squirrel above me for deciding to have your period blood land on me. (for reals thanks though- if I ever play "I have" I guarantee no on else has had a squirrel period on them so I would win)
Third, I was taking family pictures and all of a sudden me and my (amazing) sister Rachel get peed on my a bird! It stunk soooooo bad!!! We put a smile on our face though, you can't tell we smell bad in the pictures I swear.

Fourth, Pictures!! (How hot is my mom, seriously)

What's "Up Chuck?"

Bleh. So I am living at my sister Rachel's house for the summer. I love it because I have freedom and everything but I have no food. I have a really weird eating schedule and because there is usually such a long time in between when I eat I feel sick. For example, I went to a friends house for a party tonight and since I had just got off work I hadn't had dinner yet so I had smores for dinner. Bad choice because I might vomit right now. The only thing that sounds  consistently good is soda (diet doc pepper) because it's bubbly and makes my stomach feel so much better. I drank that after I worked out today because, like I said, its the only thing that sounds good. I felt like a fat lard though drinking pop right after a good workout. :) All I want is my old stomach back where I could eat tons and feel fine and some carrots because those sound really good right now.

Thats not my name!

So my friend recently asked me if my parents got my name from a popular 60's song. I said," no, my other brother thought of the name, why?" Apparently this song was in the top 10 during the 60's. I was busting up laughing during the whole thing because the lyrics are pretty cheesy and it's a pretty boring song but it's fun to know that there is a song with my name in it!

Here are they lyrics:
- Artist: Johnny Mathis
- peak Billboard position # 6 in 1962
- Words and Music by Paul Vance and Leon Carr

Gina, Gina, I kissed you once and then
I felt so wonderful, so very wonderful
Let's do it over again

Gina (Gina), Gina (Gina), I can't remember when
I've ever felt a kiss that made me feel like this
Let's do it over again

Look at you, oh, look at you
So warm, so sweet, so shy
Look at me, oh, look at me
I can't believe that I'm such a lucky guy

To have Gina, Gina all for my very own
It's much too wonderful, so very wonderful
To know that Gina is mine alone

Oh, look at you, oh, look at you
So warm, so sweet, so shy
Look at me, oh, look at me
I can't believe that I'm such a lucky guy

To have Gina (Gina), Gina (Gina) all for my very own
It's much too wonderful, so very wonderful
To know that Gina is mine (Gina is mine)

Forever Young

So I was riding my bike home today (I ride my bike everywhere because I don't have a car) and as I passed my Papa (grandpa's) house I saw that he was out there on the porch taking a little nap. I decided to sit and talk with him for a while. Best decision of the day. That old man is amazing! We were talking just like I would talk to a friend. We talked about golfing, horse riding, scouting, school and our family. It was really cool to hear him say how much he loves my family and how proud of his son, my dad, he is. It was cool to talk to him about how it feels to grow old and see your kids have kids who have kids, to lose the freedom to drive, and energy. Thank goodness that I am still young! I think I will definitely need to hang out with him a lot more. He does only live down the street so it really won't be that hard.
