Trip to San Francisco and Accepted to Pharmacy School!!!!

Me and TJ went to San Francisco last weekend. TJ had an interview for a pharmacy school and I went along to chill. When we first arrived in San Fran we approached our rental car for the weekend and it was this LITTLE YELLOW THING! I saw the thing from a distance and said " don't tell me thats our car" and sure enough it was. haha!!! After a few moments of surprise we grew fond of this LITTLE YELLOW THING. Our next car will be a little one.
When we first arrived to our hot wheels it reminded me of this movie scene:) haha.




This is me in downtown san fran shopping. Shopping there was super fun.
When we accidentally ran into the Ghirardelli Chocolate factory while driving around it was a sign from God! As me and T are chocolate lovers, we had to go check it out. While we were there we got some Ghirardelli's Hot chocolate. We later went back the next day for a chocolate cupcake:)
I'd have to say a few hours out of our trip were soley devoted to finding and driving up and down san franciscos steep hills. This steep streein this picture is a mild hill.

I look like I'm in pain cause it was freezing balls there!!!!!

THis is us at stinson beach.


Tonight we found out that Tj got ACCEPTEDto Pacific University located in Hillsboro Oregon. It was his top choice so this will be our new home for the next three years. We are both very excited to move on with our lives and get out of Cedar!!!

God Wants a Powerful People



So I am finally adding something new! I havn't been posting lately cause basically our lives haven't been too eventful!! Ha ha. Anyway....... I've been reading a book that I really like and have learned a lot from. It's by Sheri Dew and its called GOD WANTS A POWERFUL PEOPLE. This is not something I would normally do cause I usually keep my testimony and spiritual thoughts to myself. But I would really like to share something from this book that I REALLY liked.

"Backing up may mean repenting. It may mean forgiving someone or seeking forgiveness of another. It may just mean trying again. It may require you to ask for help, seek knowledge, humble yourself, change a decision, change an attitude, change your heart, or mend a relationship. It may mean striving harder to become more pure. It may mean that it's time to stop doing something or start doing something. It may mean seeking counsel from a parent or a priesthood leader, a trusted friend or eve a professional. Whatever backing up means--- and it can mean something different for every situation---- there are many times in life when we simply need to back up, even just a few inches, before we can hope to zoom forward spiritually again."

-sheri dew-


I loved this!!!! For me BACKING UP means to START DOING SOMETHING! The past little while I have been feeling like I've been "coasting" spiritually. I don't know if any of you have felt like this too, but I didn't feel like I was doing anything terribly wrong but I definitely wasn't doing anything to strengthen my testimony. Even when I would pray I just didn't feel anything. So when I read this, I decided that I was one that needed to "back up" before I could move forward spiritually again.

"In today's world, there are too many good people with no conviction, and too many evil people filled with conviction" -Sheri Dew-

I loved this too!!!! ha ha.




My friend Britney is getting marrried so a bunch of us girls went to st george to do some wedding stuff. This is us at Texas Roadhouse. MMMMMMMmmmmmmmm!!
And I just liked this picture. Tj looks goofy. but I still think it is cute. I'll post better and more interesting photos when we get back from our trip to San Fransisco in a couple of weeks. Tj has another Pharmacy school interview there and I get to go with him to this one! Yay. Plus we'll be there on valentines day so it'll be fun!
