I feel like so much has happened! But then again I am sure it is practically nothing compared to real life, but I have had a few very exciting things happen.
1. mainly I have been working which isn't very exciting, but I am still alive and kicking so I consider that a GREAT thing.
2. I got a calling in my ward. Second Councillor in the Relief Society. How strange is that? I mean I've only been attending R.S. for about a year. But I have to be honest I really LOVE this calling! The girls I get to work with are great and I love being forced right into the ward and trying to get to know all the girls and to serve them. It is probably the best calling I've ever had <3
3. I kinda said this earlier, but we moved just across town, but it is great!! We have the cutest little house, both inside and out and it feels so homey and wonderful. I will truly be sad to leave it come fall.
here's a couple pictures of the house/ my room

| in case anyone cares I ventured out in the rain just to take this picture haha |
4. One of my best friends got ENGAGED last night. Oh my goodness I can't even believe it! How are we old enough to be even considering that? I don't even have a boyfriend let alone a potential marriage partner in my life yet. I love being single and a student and having control of my life not anyone else's. And yet I am so so happy for my friend! I absolutely love reading this blog of a girl I know who is married and they have to be one of the happiest couples I have ever seen!
5. (this is the most exciting news for me even though I know that is selfish) I have been offered a place in the Diagnostic Medical Sonography Program at NAIT! for anyone who doesn't know what that means (included me about six months ago) I am going to be an Ultrasound Technologist! This is what I spent the last 8 or so months working for and am still working for because I still have to finish one class in order to keep my spot. I am nearly done I just have my final to write which means I will be studying like CRAZY!! and if that isn't good enough I get to go live up in edmonton and be with my Tannis Wilde! I have missed her so much this past year that we have been 14 hours apart and with her busy class schedule we didn't get to talk nearly enough so I can't wait to spend more time with my darling friend.
Speaking of friends... growing up is weird, but growing apart is weirder. I've been so lucky to stay pretty close to my girls this past year, but I really didn't realize how much I missed them. Then I get to spend some time with everyone, or even just a few of them and its like the chaos and noise around me that I didn't realize was there is suddenly settled. Everything just feels right, you know? And now here we are beginning this new phase of life where suddenly others become more important than the girls we have been so close to for so long. Which is how it should be. But at the same time it is weird and sad and feels a like a bit of chaos is coming into life that we won't notice, but I know when I can't handle it, they will be right there ready to make everything the way it should be.
I will always be grateful for these amazing girls in my life!
And just because I promised pictures here is 1of the cutest girl in the world!and did I mention that very soon we will be getting TWO more kids in our family. 2 little nephew, one in a couple days and one in a couple months! Quite excited :)
