Thoughts from ME

 Christian Louboutin makes the most beautiful shoes I have ever seen in my life *sigh* I love shoes. His shoes are created to lengthen the leg and simply look Gorgeous. I especially love the red undersole. And no, this post is not like my usual posts and holds no real value. I'm  simply sharing. I love these shoes (See a selection of his shoes here )  My top three favorite Christian Louboutin pumps:   1. Decollete 100 Jazz Pumps   2. Corto 85 Leather pumps   3. Decollete 100 pumps  Someday, I will own these shoes .

“And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. “And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: “And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. “And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. “And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, “And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. “And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? “There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. “And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.” ( Luke 17:11–19 .) Every day I am surrounded by an abundance of blessings that I far too often take for granted. I live in a beautiful small...

 Today I was told I could leave for my mission as early as October 19th! That's right! OCTOBER! So I will return to BYU-Idaho for one more semester and then I will have my papers in and hopefully leave at the beginning of the new year! I'm so excited. I've wanted to serve my mission for as long as I can remember. I am very humbled by the knowledge that it's coming up. I'm not ready but no preparation I make can truly prepare me for the amazing experiences I will have while serving as the Lord's mouthpiece. I can't wait! Words of advice??

So I promised to tell you about the weekend. Here's the breakdown: Dad came and picked me up Friday night at 8. We went shopping at Wal-mart and Smith's and left Logan at 10. We traveled through Logan Canyon and stopped at our campsite to reserve it for the next night. Arrival time in Woodruff: 12:10 a.m. I spent that night in a tent on my grandparent's front lawn with cousins Kylie and Chelsea. We stayed up an extra hour or something talking, which was fun. The next day Matt and Kirsten (+her friend Robretta) came up from SLC. There was a parade. {Top picture, starting from left: Aunt Barb, cousin Kylie, Aunt Suzie.  In the middle picture, starting from the left: boyfriend named Tyler, cousin Chelsea (gf of Tyler), sister Kirsten, cousin Cameron, boyfriend Josh (gf cousin Kylie is riding her horse in the parade. Refer to first picture, middle girl - black chaps), brother Matt, cousin Leah, friend of Kirsten Robretta, cousin Tanner, yours truly. And no, I d...

 First of all, I'm going to go on a little complaining rant. I hate cats. I am not a cat person. The only time I like cats is when they are cuddly and asleep. They smell, the make loud noises when they drink from water bowls, they cry a lot to come in or out, and they clean themselves in a way that always grates on my nerves.  Okay, now that that's out of the way, my second line of business on blogger today: Surgery recovery update! I went and saw Larry today and he said the knee is lookin' goood :) Not in so many words because Larry never has anything really positive to say (which is fine and doesn't make me like him any less) but he didn't dis my work on my knee so it's aaall good. I still have to wear my sports brace... I guess I should amend that and say Larry says I should still be wearing it... and I haven't been but I didn't tell Larry that. The guy might get all Larry on me. But I will try and be more diligent in my brace wearing in the future....
