All Things Bright and Beautiful: February 2013

To tell you the truth, I am not very good at keeping up with this. I write when I am really excited about something and that is good enough for me and it mostly just helps me to get my head on straight. If that really was the case though, I would have posted every single day these past couple of weeks. But I have been extremely busy! Life here at BYU-Idaho is something I could have never imagined. Okay I have to tell you, Christ LIVES. He loves us. I know that and you should too. Also, shout out to my mom. What up mama?!?! SHE IS INCREDIBLE. I do not understand how she does everything she does. I am so grateful for her and for my dad. Seriously I could pour my whole entire soul out to you right now about how blessed I am to have the family that I have. I also have AMAZING friends. This past week I have realized:

How much Heavenly Fathers hand is in literally every single thing that happens around me.
He places people in our lives for specific reasons and we need to make sure we are worthy to be that for others in return.
If you work as hard as you can and do your very best, Heavenly Father will make up for the rest.
Humility really takes a hit when you realize how much you have.
Moms are amazing.
Small acts of kindness can lift mountains.
How important it is to have the Priesthood in my future home.
Teachers are incredible and I love that they have the Spirit to guide them and teach exactly what I need to hear
The Temple is the most incredible place in the world and a symbol of Gods unconditional love for us.

Basically I could go on forever. My heart is so full this week. It has been insane but one of the best weeks of my entire life. Seriously, if you are not reading your scriptures and praying every single day I urge you to do so. It will bless your life and change the way you see and understand things. You will not only be blessed but will bless others. And you never know when someone will need you or when you will need someone else, so be prepared. I am so grateful for the unbelievable and unexpected blessings I have received this week.

OKAY! Some more fun and probably my favorite of all things! :)

I had the opportunity to help out with a friends cake smashing pictures for her babies first birthday!

She did all of the backdrops and made the cake and adorable tie! Please just notice how stinking cool that giant cupcake is. Every single birthday from here on out? Oh yeah.

Happy Birthday Keldon!
