First Day of School

Oh yes, the dreaded first day of school. I really only look forward to the fresh school year for the social part. Not really for the education....but whatever. This year was especially big for me because it was my first day or school in high school and seminary. I was scared at first, but was able to calm down in the morning. I don't know if it was being tired because I got up at 4:30 in the morning or the fact that I truly was calm but I was calm. I was able to make it through school and now absolutely love it!!! I love seminary too and it really is a fabulous way to start off my day. Below is a quote that I love about learning from Dieter F. Uchtdorf.

 

 "For members of the Church, education is not merely a good idea - it's a commandment. We are to learn 'of things both in heaven and in the earth, and under the earth; things which have been, things which are, things which must shortly come to pass; things which are a thome, things which are abroad'
~Dieter F. Uchtdorf

 

Our lovely picture at 5:30 in the morning.

It was a great day and I enjoy going to school. Just happy I was able to make it past the first day.

Random Pictures

Lately I have taken pictures with my friends and I. They all have been at different times during the month and I just haven't blogged them yet. So, here they are.

I was board in some of these so I just took them at random.

My lovely friend Rachel and I.

I don't see what the big deal is about these eye pictures. Why is everyone obsessed with taking just pictures of their eyes??? I honestly don't get it. So, I decided to do the same. You know, got to stay ''hip''.

Cupcakes With Friends

While I was over at the my friends house, one day, we decided to make cupcakes. Of course we had some problems with the frosting.......but it was fun. I took lots of pictures and had lots of fun making these!!!!!!

First we made the vanilla cupcakes.

Then this sort of turquoise icing. We ran into some problems with the powder sugar and vanilla, but we got perfect after some help......

Then put on icing.

And add these super cool silver sprinkles.

Then you get this beautiful cupcake. This is like the most perfect one cause we messed up lots of them. I feel proud of this one little cupcake.

Then.......EAT IT!!!! This is my cooking buddy.

It was a fun cupcake experience!!!

EFY!!!! :)

Ohhhh EFY. I freakin LOVED it. There really are no words to describe how much I loved EFY. I went with my great friend Katie. I meet so many great, amazing, inspirational people, shared lots of laughs, and my testimony grew tremendously. I really miss it right now. I really recommend EFY to everybody. This years theme was Arise and Shine Forth. Our group theme was Forever Honor. It was just such a great first year. I had an amazing experience. Maybe I can dictate how spectacular it was through my photos.

 My groups backpacks. oh ya........
