yes mom i will brush my teeth: Let's just say...I don't really know what to do.

So, do you ever feel like life took a huge crap on you? Probably a little graphic, but I feel like sometimes things can be going SO well, and then...BOOM. crap. all over the place. And that may be a little dramatic. But, sometimes it's how I feel.

Like right now. I want to make a stink about certain things SO badly, but, there's no point, because it wouldn't do anyone any good. People are leaving, I've got to be a big girl and realize that people are dumb sometimes. Sometimes, people act on certain feelings and then they realize that those don't last, and so then they get caught between two people and a hard place. Maybe not even two people. Just one. Or thoughts.

Anyway, I need to catch up on a few things.

First off, it was Father's Day since we last were together:

This guy is my fave. He is amazing. I can't believe how lucky I am to be the daughter of this old man. He is scary. He is rough. He is stern. He is stubborn. He is loud. He is funny. He is embarrassing. He is sweet. He is considerate. He is kind. He is loving. He is smart...and so much more. The best part? I've got a little bit of it all. I am like my dad and I love it. We're lazy as crap, but we're fun. And awesome. Stupidly Awesome.
Happy Father's Day, Dad! I love you. It's late, and so is your present, but it's coming!

Secondly, more missionaries have been sent off!

Canon David Jackson

Chile Santiago Mission

Jordan Thomas King

Chile Vina Del Mar Mission

These two boys are great. And my best friends. Sucky thing? I didn't get to say goodbye. But, letters are good. A lot has happened with these two, and I am so grateful for the friendships they have given me. They are going to be fabulous missionaries, and they are going to bring love and light to many many people. And they're both in the same country! They'll have amazing stories, and they'll be changed and grow up to become even better and more edified men.

See you in 2013!

These cuties are getting married!!

July 27th is a big, big day!

Elizabeth Anne White (soon to be Clark) is one of my best friends. She is amazingly talented--she just won an international harp competition and made major bucks, plus got booked for 20 concerts. She's insane. She has an amazing voice, and she has so many other things that are great about her that I would never have any time to write them all. She is marrying Tanner Clark. They met in Philadelphia in their Single's Ward. They started dating around September, and are now getting married! The ring is beautiful, the dress is beautiful, and the wedding is going to be one of the most beautiful things to ever grace this earth. Probs. No, I know it.

Congrats you two!!
