great weekend

well this weekend was exciting. i got to go home and play with my future sister-in-law. we went and tried on pretty dresses and went to a pretty lame bridal show. oh my just talking to kelly about planning the wedding makes me definitely not want to plan a wedding. basically a wedding is not in my near future. i miss my family already and wish i could i always be there, another couple of months and my wish will come true. i am excited.

the new addition to the family





this is the new addition to the bartley family. actually it is not yet official, but on July 10th it will be. oh thier names, Kelly and Jezzie. Bennett started dating Kelly sometime this summer. he actually did not let anyone really know for the first little while. kelly has a little girl, Jezzie, that is 3 3/4, her birthday is march 10th. Jezzie is the cutest thing, we love her dearly and would not trade her for anything. mom and dad love being grandparents, and they already spoil her to death. Kelly and jezzie have not only been a great blessing in bennett's life but to our family as well. we all love and appericiate them so much and we are so grateful for the blessings that they bring to us. Bennett is doing amazing and has changed in a dramatic way. he has a family to take care of now and he does not want to lose them, oh my goodness i love having my brother back.
these three are great together. they truly do compelete each other. as you can tell they match and get along so well. i want them to know that i love them so much and miss them every day.

it has begun

well i am in my last semester of school, hopefully. i am excited to get it all done, school that is. i have a lot on plate these next couple of months, soi apologize now if i do not keep in touch like i should. already life has been hectic. i have homework, which is basically a ton of reading. i have research to compelete and make better. i am the president of te Psi Chi honor society, and that is what keeps me stressed out, although i do love it. oh and yes i am the activity chair in my ward, love that too. however, i am glad that i am doing all this because it keeps me out trouble and on my toes. truthfully it is a blessing.
