Today I was told to be happy, and not frustrated or stressed, so I decided to write the things that make me the happiest...

My weekend...
I had a great weekend!! My family came up and we stayed at Bear Lake! On the fourth we went boating/ tubing. It was way fun, but I was also way sore the next day. Of course that didn't stop me from going the next day just as much. Josh was able to come up on the fifth and hang out with my family. We had a lot of fun playing games, being on the boat, and talking with everyone. The lake was absolutely beautiful. Also, my wonderful family threw me a surprise bridal shower!! It was totally unexpected, but way fun. I love my family so much and I am so grateful for the planning they did for me. They are so wonderful! Anyways, I got some good pictures... on my mom's camera... but I don't have them uploaded to my computer, so hopefully I will have those soon. SMILE!!!

not so good a day...
this picture is of Maddy and has nothing to do with post, but it makes me smile, and I like pictures better than stories... so here is a picture, becasue there is a long story to follow...
Well, I had an interesting Saturday...
It started off great. Josh and I went to Kneaders with some friends. Great french toast! I don't really remember what we did after that, but it was good because I was with my best friend. Then he had to leave to go to work early. This meant I had a lot of hours all by myself to fill up with something. I borrowed a book from Josh so I decided to read it by the pool. It got way hot so I moved inside. I have two swimsuits, one I like a lot, but it is discolored from the chlorine pools, and the other is nice, but I don't love it.
So, I decided I had a couple of hours to go shop for a swimsuit--hopefully finding one on sale. I headed to the mall and found a great swimsuit, real cute, and a cute coverup to go over it. I was happy. I hadn't spent that much money, so I was proud of myself. I don't like shopping all that much sometimes because finding clothes is hard, but I was happy with success. It was now like 5:40 and I needed to be at my aunt's house in Orem by 6. I rushed home to get my book so I could read when my cousin was sleeping.
Well, this is when they day went wrong... my engagement ring broke.. is this common? One of the prongs broke. I was driving when I noticed it, I don't remember doing anything or catching it on anything... I was sad, and mad. I have only had the ring for a little under a month and a half. White gold isn't supposed to break like that! It was too late to go to the store to talk to the people there, so I jsut put it in the ring box and ran to my aunt's house. Well, now that I was upset about ring, as I got into my car I noticed that someone had side swiped my car. There were huge white streaks all along the driver's side of my car. What the heck!! How wrong could this past 10 minutes have gone! I was upset even more, so I called my dad. He assured me I wasn't the only one having a bad day... he was all alone this weekend while my family was camping, and he moved 2 queen sized water beds and a king bed around our house and switched rooms. As I was talking to him I missed the turn to my aunt's house and ending up driving about 20 extra blocks.
Watching my cousin was fun. He was calm and real easy to watch and we had fun. So I came home and my roommates and I decided to go out for ice cream at the Malt Shoppe.... They gave me the wrong shake.... a perfect ending to a weird day.
I wouldn't say my day was terrible, but it was weird and not so good. It had it's okay moments, but overall it was just a day of weird emotions....

yikes!! time is flying! I am going home in less than a month! I'll be leaving for home on the July 20th. It will be hard to not see Josh for about three weeks before the wedding, but I think everything will turn out ok. My mom and brother came up last weekend and we had lots of fun. We got a dress, got invitations set, and got ties for the boys. I was lucky enough to love the first dress I tried on, so it was pretty easy!
That saturday I also had a great day. Lyssa set up a great morning. It was Russ' birthday so she set up a time where we could go to a paintball field and have a fun paint fight. It was fun. I'll post a picture, but it is blurry... sorry about that, I guess the guy taking it didn't know how to focus...

Things Work Out
"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It will all work out. If you do your best, it will all work out. Put your trust in God and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us,....If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."

So close
well, everything seems to be going by pretty fast now. I only have 2 days of class left. Such a relief! I have a big paper to write, but I think I have been able to do sufficient research for it so I am hoping it won't be too bad. All I have left in my biomechanics class is my final, in history I have to write a one page paper and a final, and in english it is just the one paper!! YAY!! spring term is coming to an end! This time next week I will be taking my final then heading up to SLC to pick up my mom so we can find me a dress!! It will be fun. I hope I find one that I like pretty quickly so that it isn't too stressful, I don't like stress....
