These are a few of my favorite things...

Today was full of favorites:
Fast Sunday- I love hearing everyone bare their testimonies.  It is always a great spiritual experience, but highly entertaining at times.

Sunday Cat-Naps-  Lately by Sunday,  I am so exhausted from work and school that I will sleep for like 3 hours...

Charles Dickens-  He is an inspirational figure for me.  I love his brilliance, romantic writing style, and beautiful syntax.  The other day I bought one of his less-commonly known works that he wrote for his children.  It is called The Life of Our Lord.  Simply written, it is a summary of the life of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  A new favorite.

LOST- just dang good.

Anne of Green Gables-  the soundtrack brings back so many memories.  It takes me back to my families annual mid-summer night eve party where I learned to waltz.  It reminds me of being at my grandparents cabin late at night staring at the moon over the lake of shining waters. :)  It reminds me of my dad reading to me when I was little.  I love that music.

Skype- I may be like my grandpa Kent in being sortof anti-technology, almost to the point of it being a phobia, but I am grateful for the chance and opportunity to be able to stay in contact with close friends and loved ones.

Rain storms-  These always take me back to a time when my parents were out of town and my cute aunt chrissie stayed with me and kenn and there was a huge rain storm and we danced with towels on our heads.  I remember how the rain smelled and how the light looked through the aspens.  I cherish that experience.

Enya- I love this style of music.  It is so yoga, so artsy, and so calming.
Chocolate covered strawberries with ice cream- best thing ever!

Big Smile on My Face

Lately I've been walking around with this gigantic goofy smile just slapped straight across my face.  
Goofy.
  Silly.
 Whatever... I am totally happy!
  I am falling in love with running.  Weird I know, coming from me, but it is true.  The other day Carlie and Becca and I went for a run in the rain!  
This is us Before :

and this is After


So much fun!  If you haven't ran in the rain,
put it on your bucket list.


Also, another thing has been making me uber-happy.
And his name is Jesse.
Jesse Foster Thomas.
Yesterday, we went for a fantabulous hike up Pleasant Grove Canyon.
woot



It was such a fun hike!
