Life Ain't Always Beautiful, But It's A Beautiful Ride...

First things first.

Here are some things that should make you smile. 

They are some of my favorite things in the world.

SO.

Please look at them, glean wisdom, smile.

Giggle, if you will.

ENJOY <3

So much has been happening to me lately!! Oh my goodness, I feel bad that none of you know about any of these things!

Okay well, for starters, I've moved back into the dorm I was in for summer semester. My best friends in the entire world are in this ward, and I am absolutely in LOVE with it! I am I am I am!

Sometimes poopy things happen. But I've decided to be happy anyway. Because, as the title of this post illustrates, life isn't always beautiful, but it's a beautiful ride. 

I am so blessed.

Listen to this song, and you'll understand:

Sometimes I struggle. And sometimes I want to give up. But I always, without fail realize that life is so beautiful. 

I have a family here in Provo. 

My best friends. 

My brothers and sisters, who care about me, want the best for me, make me laugh, make me angry, need me, help me, and know exactly what to say. 

I don't know where I would be without them. 

I feel so blessed to have found people like this who I know I can count on to be there for me.

I am so happy, ladies and  gentlemen!

So there. That's the update in my life.

I will share a few pictures with you now. Prepare yourselves.

Hayley Tiffany Beth & Me
My ladies!

We always draw these on our arms...(mom...don't hate me)

Me and Derek! The most wonderful boy in the history of boys. I adore him!

This is usually what we look like...haha (minus Tiff...)

Well...I thought I knew how to rotate pictures on here...alas I do not. Anyway, we dressed up as the Spice Girls for a 90's dance! SO FUN!

Here are our boys!
Alex, Jordan, Seth, Carlos, Jarrod, and Cooper
(they dressed up as the Backstreet Boys. They looked awesome!)

This is our lovely wonderful group. I LOVE THEM
We are so hawt.

My wonderful Jarrod. I just love him with all my heart and soul. He is a total gem. Gah I love Jarrod!

Cooper! I love him too! Sheesh, so much love. He's just the coolest guy  you'll ever meet. And so sweet!

Me and Hayley!

Me and the lovely Tiffany!
(My roommate for next year! Whoot whoot!)

Me and Carlos. Simply the best guy ever. So hilarious. So wonderful. It doesn't get better than Carlos.

My BEST friend! Bethiah is a joy. I love her so much my heart could explode. It's the truth.

This picture is absurd...Beth looks like she's floating. (that's Sam, by the way. He is so hilarious, too. Goodness gracious, we all have fun)

Well...maybe Tiff put her fake eyelashes in my water. And then everyone proceeded to see how long it took me to notice. (NOT EVEN THAT FUNNY, GUYS)

Bethiah and I are just so happy together. :)

Oh and I got a haircut!...again...hahaha

Bottom line is, I am so blessed to have these wonderful people in my life. Particularly the girls. They are the best friends I have ever had and I would die without them!

I love you all!!

Hope everything is going well for everyone.
