Happy Birthday Trace!

Happy birthday and good luck Elder Frehner!
We took Bryson to dinner cuz Trace missed his farewell. It's his birthday today and he leaves for his mission to Independence, Missouri (spanish speaking) tomorrow! He's gonna do great! (Bryson was my homecoming date! He is awesome)

6. glad tidings, esp. concerning salvation and the kingdom of God as announced to the world by Christ.

glad tidings! I just want to say that I was so excited to go to church today! I only went to young womens last week cuz i had to teach the lesson, and I realized i missed church so much! today was fast and testimony meeting. and yeah we had the long boring weird testimonies... (still great though) but there were some really awesome touching ones too! then of course i was asked out on a date... most of you know who the only person that would ask me out at church is. anyway he got smart and asked me out any day that i could... i've never been so grateful for the excuse of having a long term illness! so i'm good for like a month. okay so Skip Morgan is my sunday school teacher, and never ceases to amaze me! he gave an incredible lesson about how Satan is trying his hardest on our age of youth! it was remarkable. and... i was a big girl today and went to relief society! margaret lee gave an awesome lesson about legacy. i thought of typing up grampa cook's life story, and i thought about how well i know grama katie, even though i've never met her. I'm so excited to finally meet her in heaven :) anyway. all in all. good day at church :)

bad news bears

okay so i was headed to the bank then to the get gas then to the pool to relax on my day off! i was crossing 10600 from mountain america to chevron and traffic on my left was clear... but i couldn't see my right. so yeah. luckily the kid was a senior at brighton and nice about it... caleb came, mom came, the kid's mom came, curt came, cops came, heck even lexi stopped by. anyway, they didn't cite me for my expired registration... that was lucky. so we waited an hour for a tow truck, now i'm home and will lay on the couch all day :) oh, and it's raining. so no pool. but to make it better... beyonce is on the tyra show. that's good news.
