Excuse Me, But Can I Have My April Back?

Today can't really be the last day of April can it? I seriously believe that time is speeding up. Please stop! There is so much that I still need to get done before I am ready for next month. This month, though a blur, was good. Jonathan and I went to UC Davis for a series of Physics lectures. Oh man, it was good! I'm so glad that I have someone to share those kinds of things with. The guy sitting next to Jonathan kept falling asleep. We were both rather alarmed! My birthday celebration started on Thursday and ended on Monday. I don't think my birthday has ever been celebrated for that long before. I liked it and am expecting the same thing next year. (Good luck Jonathan!) It started out with my two favorite red heads and miniture glofing. My gorgeous friend got married! I am so excited for her and her handsome man. We now feel like real grown ups! Just gorgeous!!! That same night, I lost my phone and about a week later got set up on Jonathan...

My Favorite Church Meeting

I love General Conference. It comes around twice a year and we are taught countless truths. This conference has been no different for me. I love the wisdom of the leaders that speak to us. They have a perspective that I don't have. They have raised children, worked in the world, served countless callings, and seen many changes that have brought us to where we are currently in the world.

He gave them prophets and leaders to help teach them proper principles. Today we have prophets and leaders and they teach the same principles in a way that fits in with the world that we live in.

I Promise I'm Still Alive

I was getting back into the swing of blogging regularly and then WHAM! I got hit by a homework avalanche! My professor kept warning us and I was ahead and then suddenly, I got swallowed up by it. Then during spring break, it felt like all I did was work. Now life is back to its busy normal self. For us the highlights of break were: having 20 Pattersons together (yes it was insane!) saying bye to Chris, Annie, Seth, and Clara before they moved back to Idaho (unfortunately) and spending some time with Hannah before she went back to Vegas. (I have no pictures, but trust me it really did happen!) I am going to put more effort in blogging somewhat more regularly, plus I think I have some pretty cool things to share!
