President Gordon B. Hinckley said:

"Today many sisters are being called to serve. Many more are preparing to serve. Not because they aren't married or don't have anything else to do, but they have the desire to serve. One reason that the Lord wants more sisters to serve is because within the next generation He will send His priesthood army to the earth. He wants to send choice spirit children to mothers who have been prepared, properly trained, and taught in the gospel. What better schooling can a mother have than to experience and grow as she serves a mission." --Pres. Gordon B. Hinckley

I'm in love.

Can I just take a moment to brag about the ones I love?
Yeah, at the moment, I can't help but be in love with two boys.
Who? you might ask.
My brothers.
Their names?
Tyler and Matthew.
This is them.
Can they get cuter than that?
I think not.
These boys are my world.
Them and my dad are the only boys I need in my life right now.
Tyler..
yeah, this is my man!
He's so handsome and such a love bug.
Him and I laugh and carry on conversations,
watch movies,
eat goldfish together,
play games,
wrestle,
and at the end of the day,
I miss him more than ever!
Matthew.
yep, this is a stud right here.
He, already having little 3rd grade crushes is such a hoot.
He says the funniest, most random comments,
tells me how annoying people in his class are,
talks a lot,
butts heads with me a lot, but in the end
I miss him more than ever!
The two of these boys are the best brothers ever and,
I couldn't imagine my life without one of them!
I just thought i'd take a minute to blog about two of the most amazing boys in my life.
The other one is my dad.
But, I miss them all! SO! MUCH!
man, words can't describe how amazing they are.
Proud sister I am to have them as MY brothers.
<3
Here's some more pictures..to show them off! :)

what's not to love??
love you boys!
xo.

Just me and my friend.





One word.
Vegas!
This is the get-a-way that Bri and I chose to go last weekend.
School has been killer. For both of us.
Tests.
Tons of busy work that they call homework.
Drama.
You name it, it's happened.
So, the opportunity presented itself.
And duh. WE TOOK IT!
So, Thursday night we were headed off.
I took two tests early so that I could be able to go.
And our vacation began.
It was a long ride to Vegas and no matter how cute we tried to look, we failed.
But, here was our attempt at midnight.
Then, I continued to get a few zzz's.
And lo and behold.
Black.mail.
Taken by Bri.
We arrived to Vegas at 1:45 a.m. and I was greeted by Scoob.
I went and woke up my brothers from their sleep as a suprise and the reaction that came from Tyler was well worth it.
Matthew, on the other hand, is getting too smart for his own good.
He overheard my parents talking about me coming so he knew already.
Bri didn't last 5 min I don't think and immediately went to bed.
Me, I was up for prob a half hour and then joined her.
The next day, we woke up to do homework, I went and watched Matthew perform at his African Tribute assembly, and our carpets were getting cleaned.
But, we headed off once that was done and immediately went to In-and-Out.
Oh, how we've missed you!
We went to the mall after that and had the biggest success in the 2 story Forever 21.
Dangerous.
Then, that night Bri went and hung out with Shauna while my family and I went to dinner.
Where at? Cafe Rio. mmm:)
When we were both done, we came home and had a girls night.
Facials.
Yes, this is my mother. Ain't she cute? I think so.
She's one of us.
Mom and I had the clear mask that peels off.
Not the cutest picture, but nonetheless, it was so fun!
Bri, had the chocolate mask that washes off.
And I got to do the honors.
We let them dry and mom went to bed.
Bri and I stayed up and did our nails and got caught up on the Bachelor.
Oh what a day. And off to bed it was.
Saturday we got up and hit up In-and-Out for the second time this weekend on our way to go four-wheeling.
I was stuck up there on this huge hill.
It doesn't look like much, but it was scary. not gonna lie.

We were excited:) It was Bri's first time.

Us:)
We had a blast and went home to shower.
That night we hit the strip and mall once again.
We called it a night that night.
Sunday, we got up, got ready, and went to Sacrament meeting at the Singles ward.
My grandma came to visit me and then we were off.
Back to good ole Rexburg.
And the work/school continues.
