   Here are a few pics. only some worked..

Churchin it up in the CITY!

SO Sunday Morning Annalise and i decided to go to church in the city because, technically i am suppose to be in that ward. church started at 11 so we had to catch the 9am train. So after riding the train and a subway we found one of the coolest church buildings i have ever seen. 

As we walked in and sat down, EVERYONE was VERY kind and friendly introducing them self as soon as they saw us. I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Everyone i talked to were either in school ( law or medical ) or trying to make it big on Broadway. i felt kinda stupid because i'm just a nanny... but everyone seemed very interested. they were super cool people! I Fell in love with this ward!!! 

After Church Anna and i met up with her friend Kate, we walked around the city for a while than made our way to kate's apt. which is in the Bronx. 

We took the subway and slowly the train went from white/black/mexican to BLACK.. i was defiantly in a whole new part of town.. As we were walking down the street i could count on my hand how many white people were on the street. It was so crazy going from Manhattan to the Bronx. I wouldn't mind going back, during the day of course! :) 

what to do?

“It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.”

For the last week i have had the strangest feelings that i should tell " Carl" how i feel about him. 

I have never felt this way about anyone before. I think he seriously knows everything about me.(which is scary)

We talk everyday for hours, and yet we never run out of things to talk about it.

He is so Dang funny, he can do the best impression of Bon Qui Qui.. and every time he dose i crack right up!!

Im scared that if i tell him how i feel, he will quit talking to me. i dont think i could handle that. He is 

the only one thats keeping me sane. he is one of the only people that call me to see how im doing.

being out here on the east coast ALL by my self i tend to get Very lonely! when people call from back home, 

all they do is make me feel like im missing out on things, or they make me feel like i shouldn't be out here. 

Some times i wonder if i made the right decision. 

When i express these feeling to him he always tells me that im young and should be living life, and not to 

worry about what other people think. 

I know what i have to do, i Just have to get the courage to do it! 

                         “The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page."

It Never seems real when you are looking at something that is so familiar but you know you have Never have seen it in person before. that is how i felt in Washington DC.

Washington Dc is seriously one of the Coolest Cities i have ever been to! there is SO much to see.. i was only there for a Short while but while i was there i saw so many cool things! 

The Weekend started out Not so good.. a simple April fools joke turned into a mess.. after it was all sorted out it was pretty funny. my bus was delayed and i didn't get there until 2am. I was so excited when i finally got off the bus! My dear Friend Kiley, was so kind and picked me up and gave me an amazing Tour of the city.. by the time we got in bed it was 5:30. The next day was filled with seeing all the "Famous" sites. i got to check alot of things off my Bucket List which is always good! while i was there i became obsessed with the show The Big Bang Theory, i have seriously not laughed that hard while watching a Tv show! it was a super short trip but so MUCH fun! 

 

♫ IN NEW YORK ♫

I have officially been living on the east coast for ONE month! i know crazy right?? February FLEW by I had the opportunity to go to New York City for the weekend and had a blast! The scary thing is when i was there i kept picturing myself living there! People keep asking me why i would want to live in the city.. I replied with one simple phrase, " SHOPPING" :) obouviously that is not the only reason, There is always something to do no matter want time it is, I LOVED just walking down the street and just watching people, looking at all the building and lights! I felt like i was in a Dream. i would defiantly have to say that i am a city girl. Its going to be pretty hard when i have to move back to Utah, No offence Utah.

I was living in Mt. Kisco, NY lets just say That did not work out AT ALL!!! enought with that place i sure hope i never have to go back ;)

I am Currently living in Fairfield Connecticut its a beautiful little town.. i live about 3 maybe 4 blocks away from the beach! i wish it was Actually summer! i am part time nannying for a family that is absolutely adorable.

Noah is 9 and in 3rd grade. He is very outgoing and loves to DANCE! he is a tipical boy!

Franseca is 6 and in 1st grade. she is a soical butterfly, she a chatter box like me so lets just say our conversations are very interesting, and you might not get a word in with us. her favorite song is " What the Hell" or in her words " what the how" by Avril Lavigne. She is so cute she knows every word to ANY song you can think of!

Im Currently looking for a full time family to work for, which make me kind of stressed out in a way, but im learning that sometimes you just have wait and see what life brings you.

Between Cami,Kiley and my Mother i think i have gone over on my Cell phone minutes. Its true i love to talk! who would have guessed??

My Mom always knows what to say to keep my spirits up! Im so grateful for her and miss her so MUCH!!!! I feel like she can alway read my mind, if im sad but trying not to let any one know she always knows... Mothers have some kind of 6th sense.. CREEPY!

Kiley- man what can i even say about this Man... i think i might have a bit of a crush, Shhh dont tell :) i think i have talked to him about every single situation i have been in. I love chatting with him. He always has the best advice, and is ALWAYS wanting to go on Vacation.. who can argue with a Vacation right?? haha We may Disagree on a few things like, The Rain, Byu vs Utah. i alway tell him that he Hates everything i love.. which is not true we share the love of a nice Refreshing PEP!!! He was my tour guide around New York City, he did show me every aspect of the city, times square, canal street, CRAZY people getting mugged or hit by cars, Broadway, the temple and MANY more things. It was one of the best trips ever! im so thankful that i have him to chat with!! he is pretty much amazing!!

My Dear Bestie! Camsta! THIS girl can Seriously Read my mind.. even when im 2500 miles away. she is always there to listen to me and my problems, and about my love troubles! she is seriously a saint! I dont think she really realizes how much i miss her!!

well i better go PEACE & LOVE
