Spring Break Epiphany

I haven't been to school all week.  My own personal spring break I guess, since BYU dosen't think I need one.  Having this lovely week off has made me realize something:

I think I'm suffering from a combination of ADHD {Attention Deficit at HOME Disorder} 
and Senioritis.  And it's getting worse!
  
I have no desire to do my homework anymore - this started when I was in Provo, but now that i'm home there are so very many distractions!

there is cleaning to be done
movies to be watched
friends to hang out with
brothers to distract me, and distract me they do!
nails to be painted
stories to be told with my mom
errands to be taken care of
running buddies to work out with

 I should be reading but i'm blogging. When I should be doing homework I am playing.

Looks like i'm finally ready to leave my school days behind.  I'm ready for a new adventure... perhaps one with less homework....

Now I know why BYU doesn't give us a spring break.

Bittersweet

Well, here it is.  The day has come.
Sometimes the only thing to do is cry - cry hard until you can't cry anymore.

And then be grateful that you LOVE someone so much, that you could possibly hurt this much when they are far away.

Don't mind my puffy red eyes, they heal.
The broken hart does too - it will just take some time.

I'm prepared to binge on chocolate and Vogue for a few days, and then i'll be able to face reality again.

All I have to do is survive 24 fast sundays and save every penny I earn and i'll be in Argentina with him soon enough.

Gone for now

But NEVER forgotten. 

My thoughts are with you today sweet girls. 
My heart is with your family. 

I heard your song.
Thought of you.
Longed for heaven.

All my love! 


How grateful I am that families are forever!

Puppy Party

Roxy had puppies! :) Needless to say, our house has been a lot of fun the past few days. 

3 of the 4 bundles of joy.


Family Night in the mudroom. Somehow the floor in this tiny room is now the favorite place in the house. 


Poor Jaden is sick, but the puppies still make him smile.

good morning

Me and my daddy on our favorite trail behind our house.
I LOVE running in the morning with the best running buddy in the world.  Being above the city smog, having the first footprints in the morning snow, listening to my rockstar running mix, watching the sun rise and the day begin, having my dad all to myself.... the list goes on and on.

What would I do without my morning run?!
