It's my life!

My brother Tanner is a senior in highschool and trying to expand his talents. He is currently taking "lessons" from my mom for photography! Tanner has such an eye for cool places to take pictures that I NEVER thought would look good....such as graffiti tunnels, ghetto ditches and neighborhoods in our area...so I have to say thanks Tan for taking the awesome pictures that you did!  I figured this post I would just talk about where I'm at in my life, and goals and dreams for the future.  I'm a student at Brigham Young University in Idaho, finishing my pre-reqs for the nursing program that I WILL be getting in to (not sure where, or how, but I'll find a way! If you have any good nursing school recommendations...lemme know!) I'm living at home in Southern California with my family for the time being, and working as assistant manager at PacSun. Its been such a great job that has given me so much opportunity.  This time of year always goes by slow since I go from my busy life of being a full time student + social life, to coming home, working, and absolutely no social life for 5 months.  However, its great to be able to live with my family, not have to pay for housing or food, and save up!  I really can't complain that none of my friends are home because my siblings Tanner (17), McKenna (14), and Landon (5) are so much fun and have become some of my bestest friends.  But yes, sometimes it does get discouraging and lonely...this past year I've had a lot of ups and downs, that I didnt know I would go through.  There is still so much unknnown for the future such as what car should I get, where should I transfer schools, is nursing even the right career for me, who i'm going to marry, ....the list goes on. But one thing that I do know now more than ever, is that there is a God. There is a God who is watching over me and knows the answers to all of my questions and doubts.  I know that if I put my trust in him, and have faith, he will guide me to where I'm supposed to go, so I shouldn't worry.  I know this to be true because I have many times seen His hand in my life , and have had so many blessings come from the trials. I am now a stronger person and grateful for these experiences. Anyways, Happy Monday and have an amazing last week of October!
