The Laurel Retreat

So every year in our ward we usually have a young women retreat, all of the young women in our ward go to the Ellsworth's cabin and spend the night.. being girls :) And it's always tons of fun! but THIS year, just the laurels went.. and it was even more fun! :) No gonna lie.. I freakin LOVE all the girls in our ward.. but a whole night with the screaming beehives.. is a little much..



The best thing about being in my ward is how close all the girls are! I seriously have five best friends in just the laurel class! And i love them all to pieces!! :D




Well, Our agenda consisted of, Reading the scriptures together(amazing to have all our experiences and thoughts come together), playing games together, taking pictures(mostly "animal pictures" with are hilarious and will follow), playing family fued, Making cookies, drinking hot chocolate, taking more pictures, watching Bride and Predjious(the most hilarious Bollywood production), and staying up til two o'clock, you guessed it, taking pictures and talking! :D Yay, we're girls!! Then we woke up in the morning and had the most amazing breakfast, cooking by our amazing leaders, then we packed up and went home! It was so rad :) I love being with such fabulous people!

New Years!




These are three of my very best friends!
Misha, Kelci and Melanie!


Ammon really does like me..He just doesn't like hugs..

I got to hang with my buddies! We hung out at Mel's house before the New Years Eve dance.. Which in and of itself was not that exciting... It was acutally pretty lame.. But that's alright! I still had fun with my friends! Had a couple of surprises :) hehe
The only bad thing that i was already tired when the dance first started! So it was hard for me to be enertegic at midnight! But it all worked out!





I know this is kinda late, but my Christmas was amazing!
I freakin love my family. Alot.
I Missed my older sisters like CRAZY!
I wouldn't give them up for anything!
And i love my Savior, and the time we had to Celebrate his life!
i'll be forever grateful for what he gave me.






PEACE OUT! :D
