This is a good feeling.

So this has been a very eventful, miraculous week. It has all happened so fast and has been amazing. I introduced my friend Melissa to the gospel, and invited her to church. She came last Sunday, and was intrigued very quickly. After church that day, the missionaries came over to teach her the first lesson. Then that Wednesday we had a second lesson and she asked if she could be baptized. She said, "I'll just make it easy for you, I know it's true, when can I be baptized?" It was crazy! It makes me feel so good that I had a part in bringing something so priceless into someone's life. She will be baptized on April 6th after the afternoon session of conference. I am exicted for her to watch it. It has brought an amazing spirit into my life taking the lessons with her. I am learning so much and the missionaries are great. I am very excited to continue to see what happens. I am getting a glimpse of what true missionary work is and it is giving me such a desire to do more. It totally is a testimony builder of how aware Heavenly Father is of our lives and how everything falls into place so perfectly. It is giving me a new perspective on how the Lord can use me as an instrument in his hands, and has been such a blessing. I love how something so simple as becoming someone's friend can make all the difference. I hope that I can continue to have missionary experiences like this one. Cheesy possibly, but it has made me feel good that while Levi has been away serving his mission, that I am getting the opportunity to do it here. The Lord knows what I needed, I am now way more willing and able to listen to promptings of the spirit to share the gospel. I am going to lunch with another friend from work next week, and I'm sure it will come up because we've talked about the gospel before. Anyway, yay for missionary work! Try it I dare you, you will feel so GOOD! :)

To answer Korianne's question...

Yes, here is what I do on these beautiful shoes! :) Alicia came over and we had a fun little photo shoot! I am learning some pointe.. slowly but surely, and am also learning to hate the word sickling! Just ask Jessica! :) Hopefully one day I can be pretty good! ( and not sickle my feet) :0)

Aren't they pretty!?


Gosh I just love these guys. I have been doing a little practice for pointe in dance classes at BYUI so I decided it was high time to get me some of these! I am better at admiring them than at dancing on them, mind you, but I am practicing. My sister in law Jessica has given me a few "mini lessons" and one day soon we're going to go full on! I am no prima ballerina but I sure do love them!

Clean Sheets

Don't you just love clothes fresh out of the dryer? Well, I have never had a love affair such as the one I am having right now! For some reason my clean, right out of the dryer sheets are calling my name LOUDLY. I do love my bed. I have this amazing down comforter, except it's the fake kind of down so you don't get poked by any stupid feathers. Its like sleeping under a whole lot of marshmallows actually. :) I LOVE my bed! Doesn't it just look cozy and inviting!?

New Blonde Locks

Yes, I took a few pictures of myself.. but only to show a detailed example of my hair! :) I was really putting off getting my hair done because down here it's SOOO expensive! I called around to a few salons and they said it would start at 90$ just to get my roots touched up! So, I took a slight risk and went to a beauty school. Four hours and 25 bucks later, I ended up with perfectly highlighted hair! I was so glad with the results.. whaddaya think?
