Got my endownments!

So I have been extremely excited, nervous, scared, stressed out, but mostly excited. I got my endownments taken out yesterday and am totally happy about it! I look forward to the next time I go to the temple. I totally forgot my camera and thankfully Leilani is a GREAT friend who remembered it and took these pics...Me coming out of the temple

Me looking at Leilani while her snapping the pic!

My mom was there to but we didn't get a picture of her....I am THANKFUL to all those that came to support me in this whether they were there in person or in spirit! I have to go but I will write more later!!

TOPHER JAMES NELSON

My nephew was born last night around 7:30pm. He weighed 7 Lbs 10 ounces and was 20 1/2 inches long. Here is the cutie pie!!




Isn't he just prescious? I think so!!!

When I left to go home I ended up loosing my license, debit card, my costco card and also my gym card. I was almost home when I realized it! I couldn't believe it! I turned around and called my brother (which made me feel horrible cause he just had his son and I didn't want to bother him). He said he couldn't find it which made me freak out even more! So I when I got back to the hospital I looked at where I had parked (another car was in it's place), and lo and behold it was still on the ground!! I was SOOOO extremely grateful!!

Craziness of life

It is amazing how life gets when you don't really pay attention to whats going on and your so focused on life. With being on the 3 different committees, school and work, I don't have much of a social life. That part is sad because by the weekend all I want to do is be by myself and not be around anyone. I want to hide. But I forced myself last Sat to go out with my room-mate, Julie, Skyler and Casie (and two of their friend and brother) to go shooting and I am REALLY glad that I went!! I had an AMAZING time!!

Julie givin me some love!! LOL~

Shooting.

Than Sunday night I had to go to a meeting for the June Conference. I was really wantin to skip it cause I was tired from the lack of sleep that I had the week before and just not in the mood to drive an hour down to tacoma. But I am really glad I went! I wasn't expecting to see anyone that I grew up with, but when I walked in I heard someone yell out my name. I looked up and I saw Tabitha Mudge and Brother and Sister Wilcox. I have known them for years! Since I was 8 or 9 I think... Tabs family and mine had become close...they are like a second family!! So it totally made my day/week!!!
This week I was hoping to be an auntie again (and even though there is still a few hours left, I am still hoping!!), but to no avail I am not. Hopefully soon though!! I am getting REALLY excited to have one close by!! I was also really busy this week. I had school monday night and then went over to President and Sister Walters to work on the multi-stakes talent with dancing with brooms for Sat. Then on Tuesday I worked late. Wednesday I was suppose to go to school but I started to feel sick so I went home and got some stuff done and then went to bed. Thursday after work I went over to Tara's to work on the Poy Balls that her and I will be doing tonight on the last song and after working on that for a little bit we went over to the Shorten's to work on the talent again and work on the broom dance too...It was a GREAT night!! I think it will be an AMAZING show tonight!! Last night I went home after work and took my dog on a walk and then ran to costco. I also made some stuff and then was in bed I think by 10. I wasn't feeling very good and still somewhat don't. I hate getting sick and I seem to get sick ALL the time...at least once a month it seems like....it sucks!! I have like no immunity built up!!!
I haven't worked out for awhile which sucks cause I have like no motavation in the mornings...I'd rather sleep cause I can't seem to fall asleep before midnight lately...and then trying to get up at 4:30 (have to be up by 5 anyways to get ready for work and than leave by 6ish area). I want to leave early enough to beat traffic so that I can work out before work but I would have to leave by 4:45 if I'm going to work out...yeah it's hasn't worked in 2 weeks....Maybe next week will be better and I will feel better too!!
Today I have a lunch date with Aryn (my visiting teaching comp) and Natalie (the visiting teachee)! They are such awesome girls! I love my route! And then around 3:30 I have to head down to North Seattle to set up for the talent show and then do the talent!! IT should be an AWESOME day today!!! YAY!!

So I know...

Lately I have just been posting these silly questionaire things, but sometimes I think that they are pretty funny and cool and mainly cause I don't have a whole lot to say. Life is keeping me busy and I really enjoy it for the most part. I started back working out this week (after not going for about 2 weeks) and it has been great! I went Friday night with my friend Leilani and I actually did weight lifting (which when I go in the mornings I don't do it cause I hate going downstairs where they are at the gym in Kirkland that I go to, so I always stay upstairs to work out). Needless to say my muscles are a bit sore from that work out but it was really good! Leilani and I are now going to be working out just about every Friday night (which works out perfect since fridays are one of the hardest to get up and get going for me since monday thru thrusdays I am up at 4:30 and don't get home and to bed till really late...)

School started wednesday for me and I think I will like this class and hopefully I will do well in it. I am so horrible at english and grammer that I am not so sure how it will go but I hope and pray that it will be good!! That is about all that is new with me! I still keep busy with work and my church callings and school! That is about my life for awhile...hopefully something new will come along!

Things that I am looking forward to though that might make a change: Getting my hair done on the 10th, my friend Michelle is going to be here in Washinton and I get to see her on the 11th, Service project on the 18th, Multi-stake talent show on the 25th with visiting teaching lunch date with my companion and one of our teachee's, my nephew coming sometime in April...hopefully the day he is suppose to be due!!!
