Almost Summer

So finals are next week, AHHHH........ No, it actually wont be too bad, well at least I hope. So for an update I did get into the Art program and that took alot off my shoulders thankfully. I also GOT EFY!!!!!!! I got the email when I was in class and I ran out crying I was so excited!!!!! I truly feel so blessed that the Lord is going to trust me mentoring these kids during such a special week for them. I pray that I will be able to bring the spirit that is needed to help inspire these teenagers. I know that if I'm doing the right things that the Lord will definitely bless me. Moab was a blast and of course made many new friends! I move next weekend into the apartment across from me and I'm sooooo excited for that!!!! One of my old roommates from Provo will be moving back in with me and I get to have "my Tara" back, haha. We get along so well as roommates and I'm positive its going to be a blast. I also have two other good friends of mine moving in with us. One of them is my friends sister Crystal, and the other I met in Moab, Danielle. Its going to be a great summer with many new adventures. Oh I'm also way stoked that I get to go hang with my sister Jaimee and her family for a week the end of May. It will be so good to get away and just have fun with my family and not to mention I get to spend a week in Jaimee's kindergarten class playing Miss Julie again. I truly do love being in the classroom and helping, as that was my first major. Another side note I'm learning.....trying to figure out why I always want what I can't have.....Well I'm going to go head to the Temple, its just one of those days :) So I will post some fun Moab pictures later as I have some good ones!! Love you all who actually read this and keep tabs on my crazy life!!!!

More of my life

So when I got a blog I thought I would be really cool and update it all the time with my life......I'm still not sure what I was thinking, haha! Well my life has been crazy, but that shouldn't surprise you, right? Well last semester here at USU went really well and I shockingly got good grades, thank goodness. I have submitted my portfolio to the Art department to be accepted as an Art major, though am still waiting to hear back. I'm still loving my roommates and am still very thankful that by chance I got them. Drew and Lindsay are still my girls up here, and I rely on them for everything. Drew's mom "Momma J" has become my second mother up here, we all have sunday dinner at her place every week and its something I always look forward too! Lindsay and pono have recently gotten engaged and will be getting married on June 10, 2011. I'm sooo excited for them and I know they will have an amazing life together. Lindsay has also asked me to take their engagement photos and to be one of her bridesmaids, which I'm way stoked and honored to do both. I also applied to be an EFY counselor for the summer and had my interview back in January. I'm for now just waiting to hear back, while going crazy at the same time. I have never had a job that I was able to just up and leave for a summer job until now, so please keep in your prayers I get it. This is one of those things that I want so bad it hurts....even to the point if it came between choosing a boyfriend and EFY counseling....a boyfriend wouldn't stand a chance in that battle, haha!!! Plain and simple, I'm hoping that EFY counseling is in God's plan for me!!!! Well spring break is coming up again and I'm super excited! This year is going to be very different as opposed to last year. The year before I went only knowing one person and it was the trip that made the difference in my life to get me up to Logan. So here I am, with the most amazing friends and I get to spend a week in Moab with them. Life will be great, oh and not to mention that pretty much everyone that is going is now dating, engaged or married. Nate is expecting a few relationships to come out of this trip so we'll see how it goes. Oh and not to mention again, the guy I maybe "kind of" interested in is going....to put another fun point into the story! Well I should probably get reading for class again, but thought it was a little time for an update. Love you all, and thanks for keeping tabs on me!

-Lori, I finally updated, haha!!!


Somehow, we always end up getting ourselves into some kind of trouble.....


Nothing to fear, this was just the "love pin"

Thats right, FIRST in line for the USU vs. BYU football game that we stomped all over!!!!

My life here in Logan, ROCKS!!!!!!! Heather, Lindsay, Me, & Drew
