i can run

this is my friend ilse and i after our 5k run. the run was a benefit for women's heart disease, it was done by a soriority (i have no idea how to spell) at SUU. it was an amazing day to run. truthfully i kinda sucked it up, but it was worth. this was my first 5k and i hope to run many more. i love it, that is running. running to me is a time to get out and think, to be by myself in peace and quite, well that is with my ipod.

the best

alright so this week has been the best. my birthday was on friday, but yet my whole birthday seemed to spread out through the week. to start it off on monday i got a way cool beanie and some hand warmers from my friend elizabeth. then on tuesday i had an amazing day snowboarding, a funding bill got passed for the honor society that i am in and now we can go to our research conference, my friend markus took me to see the harlem globetrotters, and the boy of my dreams made me a birthday cake with his brother and roommate (however it did not turn out so they went and bought a cake) and we had a little party. wednesday was a day to study and i got watch one tree hill and it snowed about 8 inches. thursday ( i did not have a valentine) but i got taken out to dinner by my makeshift grandparents and the people i live with. then came the big day friday my two best buds in cedar (ilse and scott) took me to breakfast, then i went to institute to learn by the spirit, then a friend at work bought me a birthday cake (snikers yumm), and i drove home to be with the fam, we went out to dinner and it was actually a disater but it did not matter i was with my family whom i love. now it is saturday and the fun continues. this morning was probably one of the happiest days of my life. this boy who i mentioned earlier, the one of my dreams, well his name jesse and he is the best. he started this basketball camp for underprivelged kids six years ago for his eagle scott project and it has continued to be a success every year since. well it was this morning and jes invited me to come and watch, so i did i fiqured i should support him. well it was a blessing in my life to see these kids so excited and motivated. they brought such joy and peace to my life, they gave me motivation to be kinder and more uplifting. oh my it was a wonderful expereince. to top it all off i got to see a part of jesse that i have not seen and it was amazing, he truly just impress me all the time. he really is the best.
this has been my most fun filled week. what a great time it has been. i am so grateful to all of those who have made this week what it was. i am grateful for the guidance and the inspiration. i am grateful for such loving friends. i truly have been blessed in my life with the best of friends and family. thank you all!!!!!!!

i love snow

the snow is not stopping. here in cedar it is not to bad but up north it is getting bad, actually it is bad. where my parents live, near heber city, mom said that the snow is about 4 ft high or higher. it just keeps falling down. my parents church was even cancelled today and i would not be surprised if they called a snow day tomorrow. now do not get me wrong i love the snow, because all this snow will fill up the lakes for the summer, but i do miss hiking and being up in the mountains on a hot day. however, winter is not over yet. i am still looking forward to more snow.
