Fourth Of July, 2008

Yesterday was the day my mother died nine years ago. Intense, I know. But don't fret, dear reader, this blog isn't depressing. It's so weird to me that she died that long ago, sometimes I fear that I'll forget. But I don't think it's possible. I love my mom, and she loves me and everyone else she's touched with her sweet spirit and kind demeanor. She's simply amazing. I thought about her a lot, and my sister-in-law Heather put yesterday into perspective for me. She said that the fourth of July is the best day to have had mom die, because every year, we won't forget what day it is, and we get to celebrate her life with fireworks and friends. I love it! I love the Fouth, it's an awesome holiday.

With that said, I love my friends. I went down to the Nielsen's for fireworks and it was awesome! I've never seen soo many silly/stupid/daring boys light fireworks! It was wonderful. Amber was there and I talked with her throughout the show. It was nice to be able to talk to her again, I do admit that I missed it. It'll take a while to rebuild our relationship, but I think it's possible. I hope it's possible. For the grand finale, Mark taped.. some fireworks to him. haha. He had three taped to his torso, and one in his hands. I love those boys! hahaha it was so much fun. I love hanging out with them. After the show was over, we hung out for a little and then went to Mark's [uncle's] house in Burton and made a fire. We got attacked by mosquitoes, but I liked being out there. I liked it a lot better than Ladies in White. We got back around two in the morning, and I felt completely satisfied.

All in all, my Fourth of July was amazing. I love my friends, whom I regard as family. I love my family, who are always there for me. I love my mom. Happy Days.

I love the Rexburg Temple

haha. I know it's little, but I love it! I love the Rexburg temple. It's simple and cute. I'm so happy living here again. I know I don't have a job, but still. Life is awesome! I took this picture while I was here a couple of months ago, meaning the multiple pictures.. but it's fun. Rexburg is so happy. It makes me feel nice..

Egin Lakes

So, I'm here in Rexburg. It's pretty much the same as it was before, maybe just a little more development in the residential area.. and by a little, I mean a lot. There are houses EVERYWHERE and it's kind of weird.

I went on a drive today with the girlies, and it was nice to do that again. I love driving around here, because there are just some roads worth driving on. Tomorrow I think I'm going to take my nieces to Egin Lakes. It's my favorite spot to go to, for sentimental reasons and just because it's beautiful. Here's what it looks like!

fruit loop whoooooot

I am going to BYU-Idaho. FREAKING GOODNESS that is a relief to know. :o) One year there, the rest in Hawai'i! Maybe. Pray for me.

Excitement's in the Air

All I have to say is that I'm excited to move home. I miss living in Rexburg, and I miss my friends. I love my family and the fact that they're letting me live with them while I go to school. I think I've experienced enough roommate drama and spectacular late nights with the people I call friends. (no cynicism intended.) I'm just excited to be there for people who want me there for them.

I love Idaho. (although I thought I would never admit it.)

very excited.

I just wanted to let people know.. well, meaning only five or so people know that I have a blog, so I suppose it's for my own enjoyment. But anyway, I'm just excited that Barack Obama won the democratic race. Now it's just winning over the United States, which I am sure won't be too hard, seeing as people are quite frustrated with the republican party as of late.
