BYU vs OSU

While in school I found this really cute old desk at a yard sell and wanted to fix it up and put it in our spare bedroom.  The lady was wanting $30 for it, but I talked her down to $15 because one of the legs was broken and I was going to have to re-paint it, so she gave it to me for that price.  I was so excited to get started! The best part about all of this is that ACE Hardware had there free pint of paint day going on, so I even got some paint for free it was awesome!  I started on my project literally 2 days after I got the desk.  I was so excited to get started on it.  Here is a picture of before and after I finished it.

After having it for maybe 2 weeks, I got online and looked to see how much a BYU game would be.  When I was looking OSU happened to be playing BYU in Provo, I checked to see how much it was going to be and it was around $40.  You are probably wondering how this has anything to do with a desk I fixed up? Well I got this great idea to now turn around and sell that desk, so I put it on craigslist for $50.  I got a hit the next day and she took it for full price. This $15 desk that I got and turned into a $50 desk paid for our fun trip to the BYU vs OSU game. Here are some pictures of the game.





We had such a fun time! We ran into so many people that we new.  It was also my very first collage football game to attend!

A THANKSGIVING FULL OF FAMILY & LAUGHTER

I was so excited when I found out my family was able to go to Moses Lake for Thanksgiving! Tualatin is only 4.45 hours away from Moses Lake, so once they said they said they were going,  Michael and I were definitely going too. We had so much fun with the family, but missed Kelsey and her husband a lot! Hopefully next holiday season they will be able to get more time off from the Marines. So one of the nights we were there we all played Heads Up (The app game Ellen Degeneres made that is like charades.)  We seriously all about pee'd our pants we were dying of laughter! By far one of the funnest game nights I have had in a while!  I was able to catch a few of them on video, but I definitely missed the funniest ones. Here is a look at our crazy and awesome family! Justin and Dad Michael and Uncle Corby Seriously though if you are looking for something fun to do with a bunch of people, this is it my friends!! Do it. I absolu...

THINGS I LOVE

I feel it is so important to fall in love with as many things as we can, but to also fall in love with as many people as we can. As I have gotten older I have started to love things I did not care about when I was younger. I have grown to appreciate what my Heavenly Father has given to me on this Earth. and I have learned that when you love, you serve others. Which is the pure love of Christ...  and that is what will bring true happiness into your world. I am going to make a list throughout my life of things that I have fallen in love with. I want to be remembered as someone who loved everything and everyone. I want my kids to be able to know what I loved and that serving and loving everything is one of the  greatest gifts we have to become truly happy in this world. .......... Things I Love: -My Heavenly Father & Jesus Christ -The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints  -Michael Nelson, the greatest husband EV...

WHERE YOU GO I WILL GO

You always know when someone is going to giving you bad new. They sit you down and look at you with a sad/serious face. Then come the words you new you would hear, "I have some bad news".  And in your mind you are trying to figure out what could possibly be going on. Well as you probably guessed, this happened to me about a month ago. I was eating breakfast and Michael sat next to me and told me that he "had some bad news". I stopped eating and just stared at him waiting for the news,  but I had an idea of what he was going to say. I normally never get bad news and the look Michael had on his face told me everything. We were moving. Once it finally came from his mouth I burst into tears. He began to tell me that we would be moving to Tualatin, OR    Michaels Parents need his help with the Business in Oregon because it is doing so well.  He is needed so that the bus...
