I can hear the bells..

25 DAYS TIL' OUR WEDDING!

maybe we should go to the library

Happy Weekend♥

Our wedding day is 41 days away. woot!

sometimes it feels like an eternity, but i also know it will be here before we know it.

We went to Mesa Falls Friday evening with Burke & Rachelle Kunz.

It was fun.. to be a "couple," & hang with a "couple."

School is almost out for the spring semester. yes!

I'm eager to move back to Idaho Falls, & needless to say.. Get married!

p.s. i love this

Even after all this time

the sun never says to the earth, "you owe me."

Look what happens with a love like that.

It lights the whole sky.

One Year Older

It's my birthday. The day I was born 20 years ago. And instead of anticipating gifts. I am nostalgic. Because for the first time, I look at my short 20 years and I feel old. By no means do I measure up to my grandmother's gentleness, my grandfather's humor, my fathers intelligence, and my mother's wisdom, but I feel experienced.

My charmed life has sometimes offered disappointment, grief, confusion, and loneliness. But I now embrace it. I love that the good and the bad have made me into this too-outspoken, too-passionate, too-eager 20 year old I see reflected in the computer screen. I can be proud of my accomplishments, because there were many. And they were great. And I do not need to worry about what I will become, because I don't know yet. But I will be great.

That's the best part. I will look at this my 30th, 40th, and 100th birthday and laugh at my young, assuming self, Because I really don't know what I think I do. I haven't seen the most elated happiness and I haven't experienced rock bottom. And I can't wait, because I get to keep creating myself, giving myself the gifts of accomplishment, failure, and life.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

I love you Travis David Standley!
