 I AM SO THANKFUL for MY Religion. Life can get confusing/hard/stressful. I know that the gospel is Always is and will be the same, i am so grateful for missionary's that give up 2 years of their life to be servants to the lord. i know that i wouldn't be the same person with out it in my life!

 My job.. i may complain about it and all the crap i deal with but i am thankful that i HAVE a job, alot of people are not as lucky as i am.. i have always been blessed with having employment!

Quick little trip to the city. It's going to be so weird not being able to go on spur of the moments trips. NYC has so many different things to do! I am going to miss it!

One Fine Fall Afternoon

One thing I LOVE about living so close to New York City is that I can go to church and then walk 

a couple block to central park. 

We had no idea that this particular sunday was the NYC Marathon it was really cool to watch how many people ran it! 

Central Park is Absolutely beautiful this time of year! Perfect Sunday afternoon with some of my BEST Friends!!  

Im kinda Obsessed!

So i'm kinda obsessed with parachutes new Album . Its one of those Albums where EVERY song is good. That doesn't happen all to often! yes its 1:14 am i am bored cant sleep and so im writing about Parachute! :)

A day in the City!

Like Every other weekend a group of us girls get together and go down to the city. 

Yesterday Kristin, Sheridan, Cheyenne and I all decided to go to downtown. 

We saw the Brooklyn Bridge, Wall Street ( stupid protester!) Ground Zero, Battery Park, 

We took the Staten Island Ferry, China Town and Little Italy! 

I should probably not go to china town for a while! I tend to spend money, but seriously i got a Chanel purse Jimmy Choo purse for my mother. 2 Dvds, Micheal Kors watch and Chanel Earrings. It was a good day on Canal Street! After a long day of site seeing and shopping we at in little Italy, which is always so Yummy!! It was  such a fun day! 

God made us Best Friends because he knew our mom couldn't handle us as sisters!

People..

                                                             

The last couple days I have been really thinking about all the people in my life.

I honestly look at my amazing family and wonder how I got so lucky to be apart of this family. 

looking back in life I realize how much god has been apart of my life. I didn't realize how ONE simple Rejection got me SO many positive things! At the time of this "rejection" I was VERY upset! I kept  thinking to myself  "why cant one thing I want just work out" I remember calling my mom and telling her the news. she kept saying "Well everything happens for a reason. right? Seriously I use to hate when people said that. I always thought of it as an excuse. Now almost a year and a half later I can really see that EVERYTHING REALLY DOES HAPPEN FOR A REASON! I can honestly say the last year has been one of the hardest but BEST years of my life! I have met people, I would have never met with out this Rejection. honestly i'm so grateful for that! If I would have never met some of these people I can honestly say I would not  be out here in NY. Who knows where I would be or what I would be doing.  I still don't know everything about my self, But I do know that I am a strong independent person,  and I know that putting all my faith and trust in the lord everything will work out. It might not always work out the way I want it, but never the less it will work out. 

Thank you to all my friends and Family who have always been there for me.
