Being Home!!
So I really do love being home, but I've been doing some interesting things to keep myself busy. It wasn't so bad when I first got here, as I worked at my aunt's cafe a few days a week and worked on family history a little bit. But now, I have so much going on!! I'm still working at the cafe, plus I went and received my substitute teacher training. Yep, I can be a substitute teacher!! I know, I know, that's really something I can brag about. I'm also planning on tutoring at the high school a few days a week...I haven't gotten around to that yet, because I've been working a lot. Then today, I went and trained to be a janitorial substitute at the high school...haha. So I worked for like 13 hours today...blah...I am beat!! I'm in charge of an activity for the young women from my church tomorrow. I have a bridal shower to plan for next weekend and a wedding to go to in a little less than two weeks!! I am pretty excited about that though. At least I'm keeping plenty busy I guess. I think that sometimes I want to do too many things and I end up getting in way over my head. Oh well, I'm sure that I will definitely enjoy some of it!!

2009 and Life Changes
Wow, it's been a crazy year!! I finally decided to start a blog because everyone has one!! And since I don't leave on my mission for another three months, I decided to start one anyway.
2009 has definitely been a rollercoaster year for me. It's been great, but it brought many changes for me. I finally got to put in my mission papers and was called to serve in the Australia Brisbane mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I leave for the MTC on December 2nd. I went through the temple, which was absolutely marvelous. It seems like I've developed a new appreciation for so many things. I feel like I've changed and grown so much in the last little while.
I went and listened to President Henry B Eyring speak at Dixie State College. He spoke at the convocation for the new school year. I'm not going to school right now, but he said a lot of things that were just fantastic. I really miss going to school at Utah State...Logan's such a great place!! I'm definitely heading back after I get home from the mission.
