Be of Good Cheer

 Saturdayyyy, it could not have gone any better! Get ready for a very detailed blog! 
I spent the whole day with my main nugget {Desiree Rogers} My day was so CHILL It all started off taking a nice shower and taking my dog on a daily skate around the park. Later on, that one girl came over,we got the keys and we were off. As we were going down the hill to kneaders, desis' eye caught that flag on the other side of the road standing on top of the hill. She came up with the BRILLIANT idea of visiting her baby bruvs JOAQUIN. So we quickly go to kneaders, as im telling them my order all I wanted, was either not selling anymore, or there were no more of it. So I just get two german brownies and one YUM chai tea with a bit of espresso! All of it so YUMMY! we leave, as desi is leading my were to go, we have to go up the sketchy hill up to the cemetery. Finally we arrive. we take out our brownies and lay next little Joaq. ive always felt really weird about going to cemeteries I would always feel bad stepping on there tombs. but laying their with my bestfran, and her little bruvs. I felt so at peace, the birds chirping, the sun on our skin, and the breeze thru our hair. it was so peaceful. as we were there I felt like I should read a scripture and so I did.

"Be of good cheer and do not fear for I the

lord am with you and will stand by you;

and ye shall bear record of me

 even Jesus Christ that I am the Son of the living God

that I was, that I am, and that I am to come."

D&C 68:6

 



Ive got this scrip marked as a comfort scrip and

it also happens to be one of my favorites.

 

We went on laying there as she shared her favorite memories with her brother, the little silly things that he'd do. sadly I never got to meet that nugget, even tho I never got to meet him, laying there next to him and hearing all about those good silly things. I wish I could have met him, I care for him dearly.

we finished up said goodbye and gave him a little kissy, and off we were.

 

once more we had to go thru that sketch hill.

Finally arrived home, took a trip to the park. Cartwheel on Cartwheels on Cartwheels, << cause I can do those now. We also played a couple rounds or Hands Up Stands Up. JOY.

Then we went on and helped prep for my baby cousins party! Even tho we couldn't be there for long we enjoyed it. Jumped in the bounce house, made and ate some yum yum cotton candy.

Then the time came we had to go to the General Young Womens Meeting. We went and picked up the other 2 that were coming with us. after that long ride we arrived at the city creek mall where we were parked. Me so starved not having eating since the brownie I had for breakfast. we all had to wait til 8:30 to eat! I was a bit moody.
as we got seated you can immediately feel the spirit. Thru out the whole session I did not stop writing in my journal so many things were said that were must write down. I loved it. in the past years id always dread going to these meetings, but since then I have had a change of heart. "stand tall and be not moved" stand up for what you believe, whats right. So beautiful "Stand Ye in Holy places"

The powerful meeting ended. Starved we found the nearest chuck-a-rama. Never felt so good to eat mashed potatoes and gravy. mmm mouth watering. Through out the whole night it was all laughs with Naomi, Desi and I. Heel clicks, singing along to songs in the most ugliest voices, it was just a good day for this nugget.

 

Now on to EASTER SUNDAY not much occurred woke up late and didn't make it to church, DARN. We decided to go to one of our favorite parks kiwani << I thinks that how you spell it. Anyways we go there set up our little picnic and ate away. We finished up and set up our blankets on the long green grass, and soaked up the sun. Daddy and I played some catch, so fun. I remember going to the store with my bruvs, daddy and I buying our first gloves. its very calming just throwing a baseball back and forth. any way later on instead of hiding our eggs, my siblings and I put on a baseball glove as my parents throw the goods we all get in front of each other and try to catch as much as we can.  then we got home and had to walk the dog. my bruvs, sissy and I took a ride to cascade. were I bumped into Ben what a homie! Such a sweet guy! as my brother walked the dog Ben and I chatted about life, then played some catch, why aren't I on softball? cause I suck!! ha jokes. then I left ben talking by himself, haha no he was there with his sibs. went home and watched the walking dead.
that pretty much sums up my weekend.
Sorry for such a LAME and LONG blog.
I feel like I have just written a NOVEL.
Sorry guys.

Keep on chuggin'

Let's get straight to the point. >>> Don't let other people bring you down. Don't let no one bring your smile into a frown. No one deserves to be sad or crushed for the little things occurring now.
Always try your hardest to stay positive, Let it pass Heavenly Father has better things planned for you.
Trials are like storms eventually they'll pass, no worries. Unless you live like in a place were its always stormy and stuff... Then I dunno, sorry.

Honestly, life can be horrible sometimes but then the sun comes out and the best things happen!

im SO crushed that I am not going to be able to go to my young womens camp this year! im also not going to be able to go to my youth conference.... im SO crushed and sad that im not going... im ALWAYS the more pumped up one at ALL those things ): {tears have been shed} my mom this morning told me "if heavenly father wanted us to buy the tickets then it must be for a reason, it could be to stay away from all the problem seekers here" maybe ive gotta go and miss out on these massive experiences {well its massive for me} Ive always loved going to camp. it was pretty much the funnest thing id do during the summer. well ill be on vacay getting a tan on so I guess it makes up for my camp probs...

"He that is faithful and endureth shall overcome the world" D&C 63:47
Hands down one of my favorites!

Mmmmm, recently I've been having problems with liars and not being able to trust people.
Liars, how I hate them. Quit it. You'd expect if you're so close to someone for so long that they'd be straight up about everything with you, but I guess not. You bum everybody sooner or later is going to find out about all of the lies. Sorry to tell ya.

Anyways, you know that moment when you want someone to read your blog, and they end up doing it but they tell you they did.... Yea uhhh... somewhat feel relieved but embarrassed cause they did.... Goodness >>> I'm just shooken!

Good night lovelies.
Happy Sunday

sundays.

well today as I arose early having to go to church for a farewell. waking up late because of our time being all changed making it 9 instead of 8! as we all rush to get in the shower, trying to get in first just so you get the warmest water! me being lazy I take YEARS to get ready! lay in bed, instagram, everything else but getting ready! finally I decide to get ready. I blow dry my mess of hair, put some mascara on, get dressed and im off.

we arrived at the church. walking in awkwardly as they all have their eyes on you cause no one knows who you are. you can feel the eyes watching you as you try to find a spot to sit. we sat down to hear what the soon to be sister missionary had to say. as she bore her testimony I couldn't help but get excited to when I get to go on my mission and serve my fellow americans! as ALL the other long talks went on it FINALLY finished. we were off to my sweet home.

as we go home my mom and dad had to go some place else. so I afford to make the food. my parents were planning on making fish! me not knowing how to cook I called her at least 5 times just to make sure im doing everything right. I wouldn't want to have them come home and have 'em eat some poopy uncooked fish. they come home and LOVE my cooking! so this officially means im going to become a chef when I get older! just joking I hate onions, tomatoes, and carrots! never happening!

as I finish eating I start looking thru my blog and I find this lovely blog called "Love Chugs" as im there reading her lately posted blogs. I fell in love with how she writes her blogs. only if I could write like that, but I have always sucked at writing, always getting an F in English.

as im now blogging john mayer has just been on replay! john mayer just marry me and teach me all your skills! I have ALWAYS wanted to learn how to play the guitar! I have only learned one song thanks to youtube and mr shwartz. I learned the beginning part of the song "banana pancakes" by jack Johnson. now that we are talking about music. I wish I would have never stopped playing piano. I could be playing like "betoven" but I quit cause my teacher was rude. now I just hate myself for quiting piano.

to just sum it all up... today has been SO beautiful! the sun is out and shining. I just feel like I should be at the park doing some family bonding. playing soccer, tennis, rolling down hills. can I just say Utah is beyond beautiful! I love it  here I wouldn't want to live anywhere else!


that's it for today

Good day!

today might have started a bit rough, but as the day went on it couldnt have gone any better! today started off with the  horrible ACT test... couldnt have gone any worse. im pretty sure i probably got the worst score im terrified to get that chit back. as the first part of the test went on i was going smooth but then the teacher would say 5 minutes left!!! i still have like half of the questions left!! in my head "SHAT i who finishs a test that fast? time to BS the rest of it.." after those 4 dreading hours it was finally time to go home. YES!

Since desi and i dont have cars we otta find our own rides. lovely kid named keian gave us a ride. desi and him should just have kids already.... they are too cutie.!!!! 

as we got home we had NOTHING to do so i begged and pleaded to my mother to just let me go and buy something to munch on... since im not really allowed to drive... it was tough for her to agree but after ALOT of begging she finally let me go! des and i hop on in the car and take a drive to our local grocery store... haha. buy some hot munchie chit... took a little trip around orem.. 

got home and thought of a genius idea! RUN all the way to Canyon View! not the brightest idea! we got there just in time to take a breather! got there all ishy and chit! Got to see our little homies! made too much videos! just twerking in CVJH watevs. we pretty much had the BEST time there! old memories just rushinn back.. 

after that we came home and my mother brought up a trip to MIAMI. "Would you like ta go to miami with desi?" hellaaa! so this nugg is going to MIA with my brother and hopefully that chug i call my friend! gotta prayy err dayy she can! so much fun thatd be to just go on a 3 week vacay with you main nugg, sissy soul. Tanning errday, scooter rides on the beach, maybe even take some surfing lessons? creep on the hottie boys at the beach. 

i just have all my fingers crossed that she can go! 

well thats it for today!
