Grades

So i just checked my grades for the semester. I got a C in the worst class known to mankind. I have to say I have never been so elated for a C in my life! Isn't it funny how that goes? oh well!

SLOW ME DOWN

I really like this song. The cougarettes danced to is at their concert this year. Every time I hear it I get the chills. If I could figure out how to put it on here I would, but at least here is the lyrics. Remember to slow down and to appreciate all that life has to offer! Happy Finals Week!

SLOW ME DOWN
LYRICS BY EMMY ROSSUM

Rushing and racing
and running in circles
Moving so fast, I'm forgetting my purpose
Blur of the traffic is sending me spinning
Getting nowhere

My head and my heart are colliding, chaotic
Pace of the world
I just wish I could stop it
Try to appear like I've got it together
I'm falling apart

Save me
Somebody take my hand, and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by
Just show me how
'Cause I'm ready to fall
Slow me down
Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flys by
I need you to slow me down

Sometimes I fear that I might dissapear
In the blur of fast forward I faulter again
Forgetting to breathe, I need to sleep
I'm getting nowhere

All that I've missed I see in the reflection
Passed me while I wasn't paying attention
Tired of rushing, racing and running
I'm falling apart

Tell me
Oh won't you take my hand and lead me
Slow me down
Don't let love pass me by
Just show me how
'Cause I'm ready to fall
Slow me down
Don't let me live a lie
Before my life flys by
I need you to slow me down

Just show me
I need you to slow me down

The noise of the world is getting me caught up
Chasing the clock and I wish I could stop it
Just need to breathe, somebody please
Slow me down

Easter Time

Easter time is such a fun time of year. Flowers poke their heads out of the thawing ground to welcome the world to another glorious spring time. The sun gives brief appearances leaving the world looking forward to more of its warmth. We celebrate the atonement of our Savior, Jesus Christ, which provides us the opportunity to repent of our short comings and strive for perfection every day. What a beautiful time of year, not to mention all of the fun traditions of the holiday we indulge in! This year was particularly wonderful because Easter was paired with General Conference! What a wonderful way to celebrate Christ and his Gospel!
Here are a few of the pictures that we snapped through out the day! Phillip, my Kiwi friend, joined us for the fun! We had a yummy breakfast of strawberry waffles followed by the third session of conference. During the break we snacked on fruit and veggies and then dyed eggs. After the 4th session we had an easter egg hunt (you better believe that everyone of us still participates!) After the hunt we had a big turkey dinner followed by a birthday party for marshall (whit's hubby). I have to say, this was one of my all time favorite Easter Holidays!
