Count 'Em

The count down has begun!

We both have 2 finals each until we can offically say Spring Semester is finally over!

Then we have 10 days off until we start the cycle over again with our favorite semester

 in school: SUMMER SEMESTER. 

I know it seems odd that we love and look forward to Summer semester, but we just do. 

It seems that Summer semester is just straight facts and learning, they get rid of the fluff that you have during Spring or Fall semseter.  It's pure bliss if you ask me! 

 Anyways, this is what our Summer will do like:

TARA: Human Anatomy w/Lab, Math 990, Math 1010,

 Human Development & Elementary Chemistry.  Fun uh?

AUSTIN: Business Law, Caluculus, International Business,

 Marketing and Organizational Behavior. 

It's definately a heavy load, but it will be easier with them being  shortened classes.  Wish us luck becasue we will be MIA for the next two week!

Sunday Will Come

 I don't think God created enough words to express this amazing event that Jesus Christ did for each and every single one of us.  But, I they did an amazing job expressing it.  I love Easter and the incredible day it represents.  

I am so grateful for the atonement in my life.  It helps me on a daily basis become closer to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.  Because of it, I have become more aware of my surroungs and intuned with the Spirit that guides me each day. I know without a shadow of a doubt that this is true.  And that there was no better person to do this for us then Jesus Christ himself. 

My Little Secret

This right here is my little secret from my sweet Dad.  It's a red velvet cupcake.

But not just any red velvet cupcake, its my red velvet cupcake I make for him all the time from "scratch".   Now when I first made them, I made them for a baby shower and jokingly told my Dad I made them from scratch, when I really made them for a box.

 They are a huge hit.  I bring them to EVERY, single family gathering at the request of my siblings, aunts, grandparents, and of course, My Dad.  

So here is my goal for the next few weeks, to find and make the perfect red velvet cupcake recipe.

Happily Ever After

For everyone that knows me, they all know that I was the biggest girly-girly out there when I was little.  I had every single princess dress up that my aunt made for me when I was little.( These weren't like the cheap ones, they were silk, lacey, and puffy just like little girls like them! Also, did I mention she has a degree in commerical sewing too? She's incredible!) 

Anyways, I was thrilled when Tangled came out. It really is a classic princess Disney movie.  The songs, the story line, its lovey-dovey and I LOVED that when I was little and still love these type of movies to this day.

This is one my daughter will be watching without a doubt and I recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it.  Its definately one you will want to buy!

Motivation

I know I can say this and Austin will completely agree with me that Spring semester is the hardest semester for us to stay motivated.  Its hard with the crazy weather and time change as well.  We have a week break between Spring and Summer semester and we are taking full advantage of it! Well, this is how we are ending the semester. That's right, I am giving Vegas another shot.  Nothing is better then 85* weather and nice blue skies.

While we are there, we will be going to see this.....

And spending some time on the green and laying by the pool as well.  We can't wait.

Its complete motivation to know that at the end of semester this is waiting for us! 

 I love this man with all my heart.  He is such a great Grandpa , I don't think I could ask for a better one.  I remember when him and my Grandma took a few of the other grandkids to Yellowstone in a RV.  It was so much fun.  I enjoyed every second of it. I remember how when he found out I was getting married, he went out and bought himself a brand new suit because he wanted to look top notch for my wedding.  I truly do love this man and I am so grateful for him to be in my life while I still have him.

Last night, my family found out that this sweet man has Multiple Myleoma.  For those of you that done know, this is bone cancer and it tends to run in our family.  He is the 3rd of his siblings that has it and I just pray that the pain is subtile and tolerable for him while he goes through this.

I am so grateful that we were able to listen to General Conference this past weekend.  I loved that they talked about how important family is and that we should cling unto one another. Right now, times and trials are only getting harder, and because of this, we need to cling unto one another for support and love.  To become stronger for the next trial that comes our way.

New Love

This place right here is my new favorite store to shop at.

 For the past few days, I have worn atleast one thing from their store without fail! 

Look them up on facebook to see what I am raving about!
