1) Less than 24 hours till I leave for Provo! I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :):):) :)
2) I had an absolutely wonderful wednesday! I got to attend a gardener's convention that was hosted by BYU Idaho! It was awesome and I learned a lot. Now I actually have a chance of getting mom and dads fruit trees to grow the way they want them to (espalier for those of you who are wondering). As a result of the convention in which most of my teachers were teaching a class, many of my regular classes were cancelled so I got to spend the day choosing what to learn. There is nothing better than that! :)
3) The beautiful weather continues and increases. We have been in the 90s for much of this week.
4) There is a third book in a series that I recently borrowed from Page (about Michael and Emily) called Now and Forever that my lab partner owns and is going to let me borrow.
5) The fourth of July is this weekend! That is just a very happy thought! :)
6) I know a usually only do 5 but I figure since it has been so long I ought to do at least one more. I get to go to Bear Lake this weekend!!!!!!! :) :) :)

Been to long

I named this post been to long for a couple reasons.
#1- It has been to long since I have posted. :( I should have been keeping up better. oh well guess it gives me something to work towards.
#2- Even though it has only been a couple weeks since I last saw my sisters I already feel like it has been to long since I have seen them. I can't wait till tomorrow when I get to see them again! We are going to have so much fun this weekend! :)

Sunshine!

As you can probably guess by the post tittle the thing that tops the list on my happy things today is
1) The BEAUTIFUL SUNSHINE that has been shinning down all of today and yesterday, save for a brief afternoon shower yesterday. It is absolutely wonderful! It got so hot here yesterday that I didn't even bother with pants, just wore a skirt!
2) My religion class started back up again! After two and a half weeks I was more then ready for it to! I love the spirit that fills the classroom! While I loved the talks Bro. Allison assigned in his absence there is just nothing like the spiritual feast I get when I attend that class! I am so happy to have it back! :)
3)I had a wonderful editing experience with my miracle working family! I thought it was impossible but thanks to you guys I actually had fun editing a paper! Thanks for all the help! :)
4) We are reading King Benjamin's sermon in the book of mormon this week! This is my favorite part of the whole book of mormon. I feel a very personal connection to it because of how closely it relates to much of my patriarchal blessing.
5) I am actually on top of all my school work for now! It is nice to have room to breath for a minute or two before the next mad dash starts! :)

Thought I would post some of my pictures because Kristi was admiring them while I was up there. Enjoy!


I actually have a better one of this view from the view point that I edited but I can't put photoshop documents on here and I can't figure out how to convert it without Photoshop. So I will have to make due with this one! :)

My Jade plant that Rachael gave me before I left for school. It is growing really fast. I am scared that it will grow too fast for me while I am at school. Eventually it grows to be 3ft. by 3ft.
My Jacob's ladder is blooming! This is the plant that the nursery I visited on my field trip gave me for free. It is hardy to -33 degrees F. I absolutely love it!

Great Beginings

I have had a wonderful beginning of the week.
1) My math teacher cracked us all up on monday. Someone asking him about his degree asked "so are you a doctor?" My teacher said "no, not yet" then got this sly grin on his face and said "I am a master... I like that title better anyway." It was so funny.
2) We went to a music thing for FHE where people get up and sing or play an instrument or whatever they want that is musical. It was a lot of fun. Turns out there is one every monday night. I think I will make it a tradition. It doesn't start till 8:45 so usually FHE is over by then.
3) I FINISHED my paper! or at least the rough draft. Can't tell you how glad I am about that. I don't think there is anything out there so boring to research than biofuels. It did go a lot better after I talked to some class mates about how to find sources though.
4) I have no landscaping class and no plant culture class tomorrow so I should be able to finish all the homework for this week up tomorrow and then spend the rest of the week doing next weeks homework so that I can make sure I have absolutely no homework the weekend of the fourth! YEA!
5) We had a wonderful devotional today on the Love of God for all of His children and on service. I absolutely loved it! I also met a really nice girl who told me I had a "kind countenance" I thought she was really sweet and very easy to talk to.

Time flies by

oh dear, I let the time get away with me! Haven't posted good things since thursday! :)
Oh well I will just sum up the weekend I guess
1) On friday night I got to go see Jane Eyre with some friends of mine. I had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the movie. It was nice to get out and do something other than school work.
2) My wonderful family has agreed to edit my paper so I am certain my spelling and grammatical errors will be caught (this is good because more than 5 and I fail the paper)....if I ever manage to get it to 5 pages like it is supposed to be...unfortunately it is currently only 2 pages long and I am finding that nothing bores me quiet like biofuels do. I am just not sure how on earth to get 5 pages out of biofuels. Oh well that is mondays and possibly tuesdays challenge. Would you guys still be able to edit it by thursday night if I didn't get it to you till tuesday night?
3) I was able to cook some delicious turkey spinach meatloaf. It turned out great esp. for my first time making it and I have been surviving on the leftovers for a couple days now because I haven't had time to cook anything else.
4) I got to talk to my daddy for father's day! We talked for about an hour but the time flew by to quickly and before I knew it he had to go. :( I miss you a lot daddy!
5) I actually had an assignment in my math class on friday where I had to call someone while in class! I thought that it was the most awesome assignment a math teacher had ever given me! :)
