It will ALL work out:)

I don't think I could ever explain how much I love this blog. I love being able to read what is going on in your girls lives. It makes me happy and also makes me feel so close to you all still. This past week has been quite the roller coaster ride. I came to the realization that I need to keep my mind focused on the lord and what his plan is for me, instead of trying to come up with my own idea of things are going to play out. Before I came up to school I thought i knew exactly where my life was headed. this may sound blunt, but I was going to go to school, become a teacher, marry patch, and have a perfect life. Then I went up to school and things took a new course. I can truly say I know what it feels like to be sitting in your room thinking to yourself, "I have no idea where my life is headed." That is why I am so thankful for the gospel in my life. Even in those moments in life when things seem to being going rough or just not how you intended, christ is constant. He is always with you.I don't know if you all know this but three of my sisters are prego:) I'm so excited but, about four months into my sister Julianne's pregnancy she found out that the baby had no amniotic fluids, which means that the baby will go full term and she'll have the baby but it will only last minutes. This past week they set the day for the delivery and the funeral. It's so heartbreaking but I can't stress enough how much the lord has strengthened our family and comforted us. I'm so thankful that I have the understanding that the lord will help us through the moments that break our hearts. Thank you all for your strong testimonies that I look up to everyday. I love you all. I love college and am so excited for what's ahead but I have learned to trust in the lord and if you trust in him with all your heart, "it will ALL work out." I LOVE YOU GIRLS!! ****THOUGHT I WOULD LIGHTEN THE MOOD**** hahahaha :):)

Annie: Visit Home! :)

I got to come home this last weekend and meet up with Steven Man :) Holy kalito guys! I like him so darn much (just ask Sar ;))! We had lots of fun going to do baptisms, watching the Goofy Movie, going to the Brigham City dedication, and chalking up my little Swain's driveway (we went to go play with them but they weren't home. Luckily, we saw them on Sunday out for a walk! Woot woot!! :)). We spent lots of time at the Sargent's goofing around with Spencer's siblings (my parents were out of town hence the no time at the Tanner household) and it felt so good to be involved in busy family life again! Such great times!! :)

It was pretty darn funny to ask a wedding attendee to take our pic...."Um, ya, sure.." ha ha :)

Jambo.
College is pretty fun. It takes me a long time to get close to people, as you know, so I've been chillin' along. With Joel's mystery problems, it's honestly been tough. But. First of all, my testimony and relationship with Christ and the Gospel has been expanding tremendously. I was reading the BoM again, truly wanting to find more, but I felt like I wasn't progressing. Then, I listened to Elder Scott's last conference talk, and have been writing down impressions, dreams, goals, and revelation this time through the good book, as well as praying with real intent before and after study to find what I need. It is so different from the other times I've read it. More and more light is being unveiled.

Second, I just went to a College of Natural Resources Leadership Retreat at Bear Lake (I'm CNR Service Director, yay). Finally there are people who have similar ideas and passions as I do! Our theme for Natural Resources week is something along the lines of: "More than hippies and cowboys, we are Natural Resources." We went paddle boarding and skinny dipping (we almost got caught by the neighbors who came out with flashlights), and in a get to know you game, I found out one of the 'cowboys' is 1/16 Cherokee, like me. Hahahaha. Native Americans represent...

 And for Adrienne and Kenz, who will probably think I've found a boyfriend, WEARENOTDATING. (:
There's also this hippie who's going to help me fix my moccasins, go snowshoeing, and share music. There were four vegetarians there and veggie options at every meal. Happy. Freakin. Day. I get to hear, "Who's vegetarian? Your food is over here" instead of me sneaking carrots in a hot dog bun. I felt like crying when I could talk to people about it without feeling stupid and like a sinner (honestly, it's surprising how weird people can be about it). And as a side note, halfway for Kenz and old time's sake, there's this pretty cool kid that looks and acts EXACTLY like Matt M., only the swearing, drinking, environment-loving version. Strangely, his name is Patrick. Here he is.

Rooming with Annie has been WONDERFUL. We went to Yellowstone last week with Global Village, meeting people from all over the world. Fun. We've partied, had battles with the guys next door, and stormed the field when we beat the U. I love buying and making fresh, healthy food. Almond milk and green smoothies. Not to mention I know Steven really well now.

Well. I love you all. I hope with all my heart that you are doing well. I want you to know of my love for the Gospel and that I have such a testimony of Christ's love for me and each of us. I just love you. Keep telling me what you're all doing, please. And we've got to get together sometime. I'm coming down next weekend.
P.S. (Directed toward Lex) It's the birthday of...Frodo and Bilbo Baggins! HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Hey all!

   First off, thanks so much to Megs! This is such a great idea! It's been so fun to hear from everyone! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

   College has been so darn much fun! I'm taking a Big Band Swing Dance class that is really so cool. The first couple of days were kind of awkward...felt like jr. high  "Now boys, go pick a girl....Now put your hand on her back...now girls put your hand on his shoulder.." ha ha BUT now a days it's really fun! I've met some fun friends and it's getting to a point where we can really start to boogy (woot woot!) :) I'm also in a Physical Geography class. I've never really liked science but this one is different! Hallelujah! It's really interesting and I actually like going to my science class!

   As for the infamous Aggie games, they are as rumor has it....CRAZY! So many chants that it seems everyone knows! We won the big rivalry game and there was some major storm-age of the field!!

  Today Candace came came over and we made waffles (all the ones I made were burnt ha ha got to love the crunchiness :)) and watched Elder Holland's devotional. Talk about a crazy good talk!! It's one of those that just pumps you up to be good! So neat-o! If you haven't seen it go to lds.org and it's right on the front page. I highly recommend such doings :)

 
    I'm pretty sure most of you guys have guessed but Steven officially asked to be my boyfriend so guys guess what (it's not chicken butt ;)) ....I have a boyfriend!! How weird is that?? It's so much fun! We really do have such an incredible time together and even apart! He's the king of surprises and is SO thoughtful and goofy...perfect :) We went to a Sheepdog show with my family and it was so natural! Holding hands in front of my family and everything! (content sigh... :)) ha ha  He's good at being good :))

   Now, I would like to propose something to Megs and Lex...one of these fine weekends you guys should come up and we can have a major macho sleepover! Thoughts anyone? Yes? :)

Title

Oh dear. I miss you guys. ):;lkjhgfc
(Shoot. That ^ was me trying to catch the fly that landed on the keyboard. BLAST. It just landed on my hand. It's mocking me).

ANYway.

I have the lamest life ever right now, so we'll spare you the details on that. But I just had a funny thing happen that I figured would be alright to share on here:

About two weeks ago, I got a text from an unknown number that read: "Looks like a nice day." I'm not often contacted by random numbers and had no idea who it could be, so I replied, "May I ask who this is?" Come to find out, the mystery person is none other than Douglas Glenn Richins. He had accidentally replied to everyone whom to Candace had sent a picture message. (Is that sentence grammatically correct, Sarah? I tried to rearrange it to avoid the dreaded dangling preposition, but I cannot for the life of me confirm its correctness on these few blessed hours of sleep on which I am running. All I know is that that sentence is an English teacher's nightmare). So we texted a few texts, and I found it tremendously funny that I was texting my friend's father.

Fast-forward to today at 5:28PM. Another unknown number. Another mysterious text materialized out of nowhere. "He haw." That's all it said. So I 321q. SORRY. Stupid fly. So I came back with the getting-popular-by-the-arcane-text reply of "May I ask who this is?" A little while later, their reply: "This is don WoodBury. Did I send u a text Lex?" HahahahahHA. I honestly loled. How is this happening? So weird. I just thought you guys might "get a kick out of that," to quote some old people.

Anyhow. I feel that I should post a picture with this post. So I'll try. Who knows what it'll be. Enjoy it, whatever it is.

And maybe let me know if anyone else's dad wants to grace my phone with a mysterious text.

Megs first off this blog is absolutely so much fun! I love being in touch with everyone and hearing the latest news. So thank you for putting this together. As you can probably see me and adrienne were trying to figure out how to add fun sayings, backgrounds, and titles to the blog so we were just messin around, so feel free to change anything we were just playin! Also I wish I could meet colton. I know absolutely nothing about him but I can tell you are so happy and I love that. So I completely approve. Keep us updated and I am so happy that you are having so much fun down at home. We miss you up here and Love you! Well to fill everyone in on the latest in my life... :) I absolutely love USU. Everyday is an answer to prayer for me, because I have the smallest tender mercies that reassure me that I'm suppose to be here.I think everyone knows that patch and me broke up, but it has been a huge eye opener to me and a blessing. He is a great guy, but I know this was suppose to happen. not saying I don't miss him every now and then ;) But there is this boy named Parker. He lives in my building and i'm crazy about him! haha His really good friend Max (secretly has a thing for adrienne ;) haha) so it has been so fun to go on dates together. Who knows where that will go but as for now I'm just findin joy in the journey. I love you girls and think the world of you! LOVE YOU!!!

----This is us with those "cute" boys haha we kinda like them!!

---oh and in case you're wondering, this is all me and adrienne do haha :)

Good old Weber :)

So my first post is just kinda so say what is going on in my life!.... you guys I'm really liking this Colton kid! I will have to add some pictures of us up here! We just have so much fun together!! We can do the most crazy things or be bums, it is perfect! As sad as it makes me.... I just can't remember Kevin. I hate it. I remember that I use to love him and care about him, but I just can't remember! Right now I have no feelings for him! I remember I use to, but as for the present it has just been too long. It honestly breaks my heart! I didn't want that to happen. I am not saying I am going to stop writing him, but right now I don't have any romantic feelings towards him. We will see what happens with Colton! We are not dating exclusivley, but basically because we hang out all day everyday! haha! Friday I went on a date with another guy and it was fun! But nothing like hanging out with Colton.
                     We are doing a sprint Triathlon at Lake Powell Oct. 13 and I am stoked for that!! Homework is good, life is good, I'm feeling the spirit and I miss you guys!! So please up date this and just talk about yourself even if it feels weird! haha I know you guys must be having amazing experiences!! It's your first year of college!!!! woo!
