As it has been well almost 8 months since my last post, there is much much MUCH to catch up on for you few readers of mine. (even though you all probably already know what is up)
So when I started writing this post I was going to go month by month on what you all missed out on. I realized that doesn't matter. I'll keep it short and sweet and fill you in on the JUICY details!
So, to start, I FINALLY finished my Associates Degree! It took me waiting 2 whole years, and then failing the first time to finally get my head in the game and barely pass. But i'm so grateful I did! Now the next goal is to finish my Bachelors and receive a license in personal training!
I have also been blessed to stay working full-time while out of school. I worked at Salon Vox for 7 months and just recently got hired on at Sports Clips here in Orem so that I can work closer to home and save on gas money.
Why would I need to work closer to home you say?? Well, that is because I AM GETTING MARRIED!!!!!!
Holy monkey tush, yes! Shane proposed on Memorial Day, our 1 year anniversary of dating, and we couldn't be more excited and or happy about it! We are getting sealed on October 20th, in the Las Vegas LDS Temple, and it will be the best day ever. 10-20-12!
So, as of right now we are just going crazy trying to work full-time, save money up so we can buy new things for our cute little HOUSE!, and also find time to spend with each other while we aren't stressed and frustrated about every little thing. To be honest though, we have been SO blessed and I know that it is because we are both being careful, paying our tithing, and attending church meetings. I promise that if you are doing your very best, Heavenly Father WILL take care of the rest. I have witnessed it.
So sorry there are no pictures in this post, I will have some soon hopefully! I got a new camera for Christmas and have only used it ONCE. So I will be putting it into good use once we square things away at our new home.
Ok, readers, some of you may hate happy-go-lucky posts about marriage and all the "cute" stuff, and I'm sorry. I use to be in your shoes actually. But to be honest, I GUARANTEE that you will do the same once that time comes. If it doesn't well then my bad and you can punish me for this disgustingly adorable new post. Trust me, I'm sure more are to come.
Love you all. Leave me some love and I will do the same.Shane & Hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12298175246032088033noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4935710925978262671.post-91554955125240178702012-01-02T11:18:00.000-08:002012-01-02T11:19:33.365-08:00Fatty Mc Fat PantsSo I worked out today for about 20 minutes, and this is how I felt.<br />

I want to hear everyone else's new year resolutions! Tell me your hobbies, your pointers, your wishes, your dreams! I'm so excited for what's to come this year! Are you??Shane & Hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12298175246032088033noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4935710925978262671.post-72510031905580032542011-12-12T23:03:00.000-08:002011-12-12T23:03:36.541-08:00Here it comes again!!!Well everyone, since my last post I have finally graduated from cosmetology school!!!! I graduated right before Thanksgiving which was probably the smartest thing for me to do. I went to Vegas in a tiny Nissan car with 5 of us packed in there like sardines. It was uncomfortable, but once I stepped out of that car and into a wonderful big hug from my sweetheart, then that achy 5 hour drive melted away.<br />
<br />
It was probably one of the best Thanksgivings I've ever experienced away from home.<br />
<br />
I love Shane's family to death. I felt so at home and extremely comfortable the entire time. We went to Shane's Aunt Lynn's beautiful home and I got to meet extended family, while being introduced to a few new fun games. After dinner Shane and I went to Walmart and stood among the crazies of Black Friday so Shane and his buddies could get their new video game. Luckily, our friends Mitchell and Whitney came, so Whitney and I decided to post up in the Mcdonalds and just have some girl time and talk while the boys raged in the chaotic mess of lines.<br />
<br />
Once we were done we decided to head back home and watch a movie to end the night. The rest of the week just included visiting friends, sushi, lots of leftovers, move games, watching tv and relaxing, and tons of cuddling with my man. Couldn't have gotten any better.<br />
<br />
Once I came back from Thanksgiving I had no clue what to do with all of my free time! Going from 13 hour days at school to not having anything to do kind of threw me for a loop. I finally was BORED and it drove me nuts. Luckily I started the job search and received two interviews at a salon in American Fork. I will hear back from them after the Christmas break and hopefully I will have a part-time job cutting hair!<br />
It stinks not having a job to support myself. I feel so useless and irresponsible it kills me. BUT, i'm so grateful for my parents who have been helping me out this past year while in school, and I will stop at nothing to make sure I work hard and pay them back somehow. I owe so much to them and hope that I work just as hard for my future kids to allow them to have the luxeries I have.<br />
<br />
Christmas is coming up fast and there is so much that needs to be done!<br />
I lost my drivers license, so I will be getting a UTAH license now instead of my original Iowa one. I fly home on the 20th and will be so excited to see my family and friends that I haven't seen for over 6 months. It will be a wonderful break, but fortunately/unfortunately Shane will be in Vegas with his family. I will miss that man. Even if im gone for only 8 days.<br />
<br />
If only we were married.....haha.<br />
<br />
Isn't it nuts that it's almost 2012?? I've been thinking about what kind of new years resolution i might make this year.... and I finally came up with one...<br />
<br />
...become an adult.<br />
<br />
Strange I know...and WHO would want that? Well, to be honest I do. I want to have a full-time job to support myself, I want to be able to set my own schedule and work my butt off to become the person that I want to be. Permanently. I want to be ready to be married and start a family. I want to fulfill my desires once and for all.<br />
<br />
I'm so excited for this to get started. It will be SO hard, I know that more than anything. But, i'm so ready.<br />
<br />
<br />
Also, if anyone needs prays/love/a helping hand/or a friend. Please just know that I am more than willing to be there. Let me be your lifelong friend. Let me there for you. Since you all have been there for me!<br />
<br />
God bless, happy holidays, and I will most likely see you in the new year. :)Shane & Hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12298175246032088033noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4935710925978262671.post-64281600239752531592011-10-17T22:50:00.000-07:002011-10-17T22:50:12.274-07:00Big Girl Pants<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0e_NuprEmiOKxJ8AQtjzDJn_gJWyZam_DnYFa4rGDowr94d__o3swQ0_pUoBDZjVQH78I_Q7ma3ju-sKpJO3LEhiJLDd7ohZYWjEPMugyAp-hFtx5K6_WIUEbaxhr-SKzZPmh3spNv10/s1600/4g.aspx" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0e_NuprEmiOKxJ8AQtjzDJn_gJWyZam_DnYFa4rGDowr94d__o3swQ0_pUoBDZjVQH78I_Q7ma3ju-sKpJO3LEhiJLDd7ohZYWjEPMugyAp-hFtx5K6_WIUEbaxhr-SKzZPmh3spNv10/s400/4g.aspx" width="240" /></a></div><br />
Well, what a change of events this has led me to! I'm sorry to all of those who try to follow me, yet there is nothing to follow. Unfortunately I feel that all my posts end up starting with the same introduction. "I've been too busy", "I'm just lazy.", "There has been a lot of crazy things happening around here." And my excuse this time????<br />
<br />
ALL. OF. THE. ABOVE.<br />
<br />
I'm trying to graduate from cosmetology school here in the next 5 weeks. How crazy is that?! Pretty soon I'll have to change my "About Me" after I start the next chapter of my life. Whichever that will be; I'm so excited.<br />
<br />
Oh, and did I mention there's a man in my life? Yeah, he is and has been such a blessing to me since I've moved out here. I can't tell you how many times I would get flustered or frustrated about the littlest things and he's always there to put my head on straight, hold me close, and show me that everything is ok. My stupid car has broken down or had problems like 5 times. If he wasn't around, I would have no clue what do to half the time. He's taught me so much, not just with cars but with other things. He's a teacher. He is so goofy too, totally out of my comfort zone sometimes but I LOVE it. He's helping me be a little less insecure day by day. He is absolutely gorgeous. I can't get enough of him. Attraction is a good thing, no? Yeah, I think he's sexy. He has such a wonderful personality. Everyone loves him to pieces once they meet him. Oh, and you know how us girls have that time when we get all emotional and sometimes on the verge of crazy? He knows when that happens, yet he loves me enough to stick around through those times. Who could ask for anything more?<br />
<br />
He is my best friend.<br />
<br />

I miss home. I miss my family, my friends, and just the easy-going living out there. I forget how hectic the world is when i'm there. It's some sort of oasis almost......filled with corn and livestock. I know i most likely won't ever go back to live there, but it's a wonderful place to visit and just relax. Give me home; give me family.<br />

Overall, life is good here in Utah. I have nothing to complain about for the most part. It's just about that time for me to put my big girl pants on and start a new life of work, love, and independence.Shane & Hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12298175246032088033noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4935710925978262671.post-16947455780766035902011-05-24T19:23:00.000-07:002011-05-24T19:23:35.096-07:00Let's just take it slow...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWzRACMg3HDDgtq401RDPOzEKrCwbO3KRQjh4VHnT7zi6wZDqdCHTQap5CtpJG2YSEoOe5FYdosLPB_frkPDk6wZAnzyI3V9e11RGJycEs_9J73xLjxqVWfCxhVntI9YMXT7sK8c_YBds/s1600/crop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWzRACMg3HDDgtq401RDPOzEKrCwbO3KRQjh4VHnT7zi6wZDqdCHTQap5CtpJG2YSEoOe5FYdosLPB_frkPDk6wZAnzyI3V9e11RGJycEs_9J73xLjxqVWfCxhVntI9YMXT7sK8c_YBds/s320/crop.jpg" width="242" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div>It feels great to be back in the blogging scene!!!! NO, I didn't purposefully stop updating, but I have been on a constant roller coaster lately that hasn't allowed me to do so.<br />
There has been SO much going on in the past months since my last post! Oh where do I start.....<br />
<br />
In summary this is what has happened:<br />
<br />
School....and skipping school<br />
Roadtrip to Las Vegas!<br />
Meeting my best friend's fiance (I totally approve)<br />
Unemployment.....then employment....then unemployment....and finally...... employment<br />
Romance<br />
Ran a Triathlon!<br />
Lots and lots of volleyball<br />
New church callings<br />
Heartbreak<br />
Messy apartment/room<br />
Reading a few books (which aren't even close to being finished and are still on my nightstand)<br />
Lots of wonderful new friends<br />
Roadtrip to Rexburg!<br />
Missionaries came home<br />
Marriage!<br />
Missionaries leaving<br />
Spring<br />
<br />
If anyone wants specifics on a certain topic....let me know and i'll see what I can make out of it!<br />
<br />
So, I am suppose to graduate in about 5-6 months from Cosmetology school. How crazy is that?! I definitely feel that I am becoming more confident and comfortable with this career. I still have no idea what I want to do once I graduate though. There are so many stinkin' options for me right now! I don't want to say those options yet....i still have a lot of pondering and such about them. But I will definitely fill you all in once the time comes!!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
In the meantime, please watch and enjoy this absolutely romantic video. I hope my future husband loves me as much as this man loves his fiance. :)<br />

That's not bad right? Well I don't think it's necessarily a good thing when I wast time and money doing it correct? </div><div style="text-align: center;">I know this is what life is all about; experiencing new things and ideas and then finding where your "nook" is. It has been almost 3 years since I have been our of high school and unfortunately....</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">...I haven't found my "nook".</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I am getting quite impatient. </div><div style="text-align: center;">I just want a plan, something, ANYTHING. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I'm lost.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I thought I knew what I wanted to do for a major while I was at BYU-Idaho. That didn't happen so I though I was suppose to pursue a career in cosmetology....turns out I know for a fact that I don't want to be doing this my entire life. I know I want to do something medical, but the list of jobs in that field is endless. So...what now? </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">My parents are sick and tired of me always changing my mind. They have been so patient with me and have given me so much throughout this time of my life. But 3 years is a long time to help me "get started". </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I feel irresponsible.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I love my parents so much and am so grateful for them. But, I feel that I should be helping them now. I should be providing for myself (and don't get me wrong, I'm trying). I seem to always be falling short, or I'm always missing something. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">What is missing? </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I don't know, no one know except for Heavenly Father. </div><div style="text-align: center;">I know I'm being tested and this is to help me learn something. I thought I knew what, but now I'm not so sure. What is the point of doing what I'm doing right now if I'm not happy? </div><div style="text-align: center;">I thought I was happy...now I'm just stressed. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I guess I have some things to sort out don't I?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small; "><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small; ">(Sorry for the pessimistic rant, ya'll are peaches to hear me out :)</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" >On another note...This man is always a great pick me up </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/gTC5Zvjwty8?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gTC5Zvjwty8?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></span></div>Shane & Hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12298175246032088033noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4935710925978262671.post-87416146135298758192010-11-29T21:43:00.000-08:002010-11-29T22:02:07.139-08:00I did it, and I feel awesome<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCH938kM7EzihWzOvpyFthN2OyYfotXYkjc-b0R1iSpsmo5N4tY8yjd8DtWBpRDTaVzr2kstXXU-xfmhm963ZKr7Ub8ELZPf5IFSF2ZbqUWWHno7JVQxKjXa2KNGZ4UA4cjdV1BmNztc4/s1600/blog.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCH938kM7EzihWzOvpyFthN2OyYfotXYkjc-b0R1iSpsmo5N4tY8yjd8DtWBpRDTaVzr2kstXXU-xfmhm963ZKr7Ub8ELZPf5IFSF2ZbqUWWHno7JVQxKjXa2KNGZ4UA4cjdV1BmNztc4/s400/blog.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545218968170338850" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">You know those moments when you just want to be super selfish? Yes, I'm sure we all do.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I feel that way all the time...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Well, today was different. Today I woke up like usual, but I felt different. Different routine?...Nope. Different hairstyle?...Definitely not. What was different today was something I can describe....</div><div style="text-align: center;">...something I can't put into words. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Today, I felt selfless.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Have you ever tried it? I'm sure you have.</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's quite nice actually. So, why not do it always?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Christ did it. He did it for all of us. He did the most selfless act anyone could have ever done.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">So....stay longer at work for that person who has a doctors appointment, even if it's on your day to get off early.</div><div style="text-align: center;">....give that classmate who is walking alone on the side of the road in the freezing cold air with all of his bags a ride home.</div><div style="text-align: center;">....invite that random person that you aren't great friends with to an ugly sweater party. (it might be just what they need)</div><div style="text-align: center;">....be kind. How hard can it be, really?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">These are just a few examples.

Christmas is coming and that means I will be able to finally go home. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">22 days left....I can do it.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Kristen and I were thrilled with the snow and decided we were going to play in it as much as possible. So, we did. Unlike Iowa, it's not a bad temperature when it snows here. This allows us to stay out in it for more than an hour. It's quite the difference!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I'm in such a Christmas spirit lately that I had to break out the Christmas candles, music, and I even watched "Elf". It was so awesome. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Just a quick side note: I will be doing something today that will most likely and hopefully allow me to relieve some stress as well as kick start me into a better and less-worrisome lifestyle. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Wish me luck. :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijk4Wa2rEKKinS8gI57cjd06BUsiapaS4dCqWpOIZ0FXLdPudBV5TcRZbwzvR9rGzZFh-vf-1FvHbePbdvNOM4URattfqkgvozYhkY1Lugaqq6mQawyrdZ4_6wVckw_m6AOw14NbIg9tg/s1600/roomies2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijk4Wa2rEKKinS8gI57cjd06BUsiapaS4dCqWpOIZ0FXLdPudBV5TcRZbwzvR9rGzZFh-vf-1FvHbePbdvNOM4URattfqkgvozYhkY1Lugaqq6mQawyrdZ4_6wVckw_m6AOw14NbIg9tg/s400/roomies2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545011035026655250" /></a>Shane & Hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12298175246032088033noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4935710925978262671.post-16772829200796039942010-11-27T22:36:00.000-08:002010-11-27T22:37:55.395-08:00Be Satisfied With Me<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); ">Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone,</span></div><div style="text-align: center; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; ">To have a deep soul relationship with another,</div><div style="text-align: center; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; ">To be loved thoroughly and exclusively.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">But to a Christian, God says, "No, not until you are satisfied,</span></div></span><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">Fulfilled and content with being loved by me alone,</span></div></span><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">With giving yourself totally and unreservedly to me.</span></div></span><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">With having an intensely personal and unique relationship with me alone.</span></div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">Discovering that only in me is your satisfaction to be found,</span></div></span><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">Will you be capable of the perfect human relationship,</span></div></span><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">That I have planned for you.</span></div></span><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">You will never be united to another</span></div></span><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">Until you are united with me.</span></div></span><span class="Apple-style-span" ><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">Exclusive of anyone or anything else.

What a week it has been and it's only almost Wednesday. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Monday I had orientation for my NEW job at the hospital. It was from 7:45-4:00.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">So, all.....day....long...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">BUT, I'm super excited for this job. I'm only doing housekeeping right now, but I need to get my foot in the door somehow right? I'm hoping that being around the hospital and in contact with patients that I will be able to understand or find out what I would like to do as a career. I always knew that I would be in the medical field somehow, just have no idea what area.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">So, today there was suppose to be a "blizzard". WRONG-O.</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's stinkin' cold, but I can't help but laugh when comparing storms in Utah to storms in Iowa. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Speaking of Iowa....I miss it.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I keep getting more and more homesick as the days roll on. I haven't been home in 8 months and I think it's finally starting to pierce my heartstrings!! This will be my first Thanksgiving away from home....so depressing, I know. I'm grateful for all the kind friends that have invited me into their homes for Turkey Day. Kristen and I will be eating Thanksgiving dinner with my Bishop. He's the cutest man ever and I couldn't be more thrilled to go.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Speaking of Thanksgiving.....</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I know it's common for people to say what their grateful for on this day, and I don't see a problem with that. What I'm going to begin doing is finding things that I'm grateful for on a daily basis. We've been given so much in this life, don't you think it would be considerate of us to appreciate those things DAILY?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">What do you think?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Do you think you could do this as well? Will you be up to the challenge? Find at least one thing every day that you're thankful for. Write it down, type it, say it.......record it somehow. That way you will continue to do it, and you will always have those reminders of how blessed we are in this life. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you are reading this blog post, please leave a comment of something you are thankful for right now. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I'd love to hear about it :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wi0tqhedHIU?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wi0tqhedHIU?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object></div>Shane & Hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12298175246032088033noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4935710925978262671.post-76228378459634630022010-11-21T16:39:00.000-08:002010-11-21T18:30:28.737-08:00fall with a light dusting of snow<div style="text-align: center;">I woke up later than I had planned this morning (like usual)...rolled out of bed around 8:30, checked my phone, and found out that I had a church meeting at 11. </div><div style="text-align: center;">I did the usual routine and enjoyably took my time getting ready. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Blew dry my hair, applied foundation and mascara and was on my way. </div><div style="text-align: center;">My meeting went great. I love my Bishop and the sisters I serve with in the presidency. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I walked outside and I found a light dusting of snow over the yellow and red leaves. There was a slight breeze as well which made for a chilly experience. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I loved it though. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">It's so gorgeous here in Happy Valley. I still think the mountains look like a painted backdrop every time I leave my apartment. It's no Iowa, but it's not so bad after all. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Church was wonderful. Kishara and her friend Conley sang a medley for a musical number during sacrament meeting. It was absolutely beautiful. Definitely set the tone for the rest of my Sunday.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">(Here is the medley. Sung by a couple of amazing sisters)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6r7pV8_2CD8?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6r7pV8_2CD8?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Like every Sunday I have to myself I always think of things I need to improve on, and ways to grow and progress so that I can be a better individual. I tend to over-analyze, stress out, and overwhelm myself with these things. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Today I am at peace.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Today I am thinking of things that I have been blessed with in my life and especially in my life at this time. I'm in my prime! I am 20 years old and trying to figure life out. So many opportunities and experiences are being placed in my path and it is my duty to pick them up and run with them. They are put there for a reason and it is up to me what to make of them. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Shane & Hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12298175246032088033noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4935710925978262671.post-3937929162432222042010-10-17T23:50:00.000-07:002010-10-18T00:00:30.984-07:00yes, i'm alive<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQ1zuOPaKGeks63UxIzKSZvbTaDEnyfvgaI5ijYUK0KD-no1dVF3dmvFfLIskRjK_h2CwIFR1pZiSAZUrJNkMWH94UC4WGc5nRm9LTeSeRsFFtiVRozW7HkilAtQLWj-NpWxU3UR9lSzI/s1600/Utah+002.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQ1zuOPaKGeks63UxIzKSZvbTaDEnyfvgaI5ijYUK0KD-no1dVF3dmvFfLIskRjK_h2CwIFR1pZiSAZUrJNkMWH94UC4WGc5nRm9LTeSeRsFFtiVRozW7HkilAtQLWj-NpWxU3UR9lSzI/s400/Utah+002.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5529275379558430850" /></a>Hello blog world!

Which i'm indecisive of whether that's a good thing for me or not. It's nice to have this week off to get adjusted and situated in my new living arrangements, but I'm pretty bored and need money. But, it gives me a chance to chill out, read a good book, and enjoy this beautiful weather before I start working every day and school. I can't wait for that either though!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">So...it's weird not having friends around. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Kristen moves in tomorrow, and I"m super excited about it!

Heavenly Father has definitely blessed my life more than ever. And I know why...I'm doing the small and simple things. I'm enjoying life, and I'm doing what makes me happy, so that makes Him happy. Of this I'm sure. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I think this is something to take into account and needs to be noted. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Do what makes YOU happy. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If it is good then God will guide you.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I will be posting pictures soon of my new apartments and crafty/decorating ideas!!!!!
