80's ROCK

I swear I missed my decade, I would've rocked the 80s!!! I love everything flashy and love love love big hair and this would have been the time that my natural hair would've come in handy (My lion's mane that is...) Well Thanks to miss Amy hosting her B-day party with an 80's Rock theme I got to dig deep in my inner self and I had a good time. It was a night full of food (of course) dancing and sun drop slushies!!!!! Happy Birthday to Amy!Poor Jas had no gum hahaha Us acting how we usually do, crazy and fun :) The Birthday Girl and I!

I have been called...

....I have a new calling and let me tell you how utterly scared I am and how extremely humbled I am. I've been called as the 2nd counselor in the Relief Society of the Gresham Ward. I really don't think it has really hit me quite yet or fully sunk in, but I'm taking it day by day. I feel very blessed to have this opportunity even though I feel SUPER inadequate! When I was called as the RS President in the singles ward in Arizona I was shocked and scared (pretty much the exact same I am feeling now) and even tough I felt inadequate then I somehow knew it was right and I could relate to the sisters. Here it is ENTIRELY different, I am now in a family ward where I'm a single sister surrounded by much wiser (didn't really want to say older) ladies who I look up so much and who know so very much more than I do. What can I possibly bring to the table?? Yup this darn question that has been running through my mind for a weeks now and the only peace that comes to me is knowing the President, 1st Counselor, and Sec are AMAZING and will pick up my slack. All I know is that I will be spending more time on mmy knees because there is no way I can do this on my own. Apparently Heavenly Father has an awesome sense of humor and likes to see the deer in highlights look on my face :)
Love you all!!

Ethan & Kellie's Wedding

Yes I'm a pretty late, but I'm finally posting about Ethan & Kellie's wedding. It was Beautiful, I'm so happy for them and I was so happy to be able to be part of their day with them. Thursday night was the big Bachlorette Party, we went to Appleton out to eat then out on College Avenue. Dest had a game so it was Kellie, Jenn, Amanda and I. It was a fun night out with the girls, met some crazy interesting people, but its all good. Got home at 330 am and got up the next morning to help decorate for the reception. I was pretty darn tired but so worth it.
The ceremony was so beautiful, I really had a hard time getting through it. I'm so proud of T and Kellie is amazing. She fits right in and I just love her.

Fun morning at the Salon. BIG thanks to Jeana, she did my hair and did amazing! I felt so pretty!
Quick stop at Bad Habit before the reception.
Dest & I got to lace Kellie's dress up and oh my goodness. Her dress was so beautiful, but it took a little bit.
Jill & I after the ceremony. Polka was a big hit at the reception. And as embarrassing as this last pic is, I had to put this on. It was the grand march and we ran out dancing and apparently I'm quite talented cause I can make my body as a complete "S" hahaha


So I love these pictures!!! During the grand march, while dancing some how I didn't get my turn with T and he saw that and he switched once more cause he said he had to dance with me...I just love that kid. And I'm so glad that Pam or Michelle (not quite sure who) snapped a shot of us hugging.

And of course we had to have a sister's picture that night. I'm the luckiest girl in the world, I have the BEST family in the world. All in all the whole weekend was a blast, I was super tired and exhausted, but again so worth it all.
