Bowling with my pals!!!!!!!!!

So after institute the other night we went bowling! And we didnt even have to pay for it! Institute did! They spoil us a little! Anyways it was probably the the best bowling game ever! I had more fun then I've had in a long time! We were really hyper! We even had a dance for when someone got a spare and when someone got a strike! Everyone thought we were insane but we didn't care cause it was so fun. And because we were so hyper it brought up opprotunities with a friend to talk about happiness and the church! So it was a good thing! Here are some pictures! I stole them from bridgets facebook! Thanks bridget!

Me and bridget drinking the two best drinks in the whole world! Mountain Dew and dr.pepper!

One more thing!

So I just wanted to talk more about mine and bridgets walk! So bridget is trying to help me talk better. Because I am really bad at it lol! And that is one of the things that in the next six months I want to really work on and get better at. Anyways I did ok on the walk. So thanks bridget for listening to me and being patient! Love your guts girl! And if anyone needs to clear there mind take a friend and go walk the greenbelt! Changes your life! LOVE IT! After writing a post the other week and reading people feed back it's made me really really want to try to trust people and let them help me. So thank you guys for your cooments back the other week! Because it is true heavenly father send people to us and wants us to use them! I am so thankful for that!

Member Missionary??

So I'm babysitting tenley and since the backyardagains are on and she is glued to the tv I thought it would be a good time to tell everyone about me week. I'm trying to blog more. Even if no one reads them I atleast write it down sort of like a journal. Cause I am really bad at writing in my journal. So this can just be my journal lol. So this week has been great but crappy and interesting at the same time. It started out weird. Sunday was good I love church and all but I was thinking about nolan all day. He went to visit my grandma and grandpa jones and elise last week cause he was only like 10 minutes from them but was getting transferred. Anywyas he said some thing to my grandma that really made me think. I had some good discussions with some of my friends about it. And after everyones advice I decided that for the next 6 months me and nolan need to focus on ourselves and what we are doing in our lives right now. So I wrote him and told him how I felt and that I felt like we need to not write for the rest of his mission. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done cause I enjoy writing him each week and look forward to his emails each week. But he is amazing and agreed that that would be a good idea. So we decided he would call me when he got home but other then that the only contact we'll have is like a package every couple months like only for birthdays. Anyways I was a little sad at first. But I think it will be good. So then yesterday was a pretty good day. Work was work as usual but then me and my friend bridget decided we wanted to go on a walk. A really long walk! She says I'm gonna be at my goal weight just from our walks together. We walked for a good 2 1/2 hours. And it was amazing to just walk and talk! Thanks bridget! You're the best! Then we had institute which was amazing. After institute the whole institute went bowling. They rented out the bowling alley for us and oh my gosh it was so fun! I got just a little hyper! Bridget and Hailee make me hyper! We were like running and screaming and laughing and drinking dr pepper and mountain dew. Some how I still managed to bowl a 148 ha ha! But the best part is that my friend Becca came! She is an investigator and has been coming to Family Home Evening sometimes. But she has turned me down for every other activity. But she actually came this time. I dont think she had ever seen my hyper and was just laughing at me. After we were done and we left she text me thanking me for inviting her. And said she hadnt had so much fun in a long time. And said she loved how happy I always am. So I took that as oh you want to be happy? lol so I text her and told her that the church is what makes me happy and asked her if she wanted to come to church with me. And she said yes! She Said YES!!! She only has one skirt so I am taking her skirt shopping on saturday! I'm excited! I just cant wait! I will blog about it after we go! I hope and pray she doesnt back out because she is getting ready to hear the most improtant thing she will ever hear! And if she is willing it will change her life for the better forever! I love our church and I am so thankful for it!

Thought of the day!

So I have a lot of time to think while I give massages. Most people dont talk so I just have time to "meditate". I woke up in a weird mood this morning. I had had a conversation last night that was really deep and good for me. It just got late and I got tired so we didnt finish the conversation and it left me thinking. So needless to say I woke up thinking of the conversation. And It made my whole day like off. But now that the day is over and it is almost time for bed i've decided what my ultimate thought of the day is. It's that life sucks. It sucks sometimes. The lord gives us little speed bumbs in our life and it sucks to get over them. But he also sends people to give us that little extra push so we are able to get over them. Even if those people are only in our lives long enough to push us over thats it then they are gone I am thankful the lord sends those people. I dont open up to many people. Because what is the point when they have to leave soon to like school or mission or whatever it may be. And I have been told to not make my problems other peoples problems. But sometimes I need to just get it off my chest. So I have a question. How do you find that happy medium of needing to talk to someone but not to the point that it makes it their problem? And how do you open up when you need to even when you know whoever it is you are talking to won't be there in a few months?? Any advice would help thanks!

Bored Babysitting Tenley!

So I figure that I could write a little while I babysit. Tenley is the best little baby. Well I guess she isnt little anymore. She's starting to walk. Infact she is trying to chase jack right now but just fell on her butt. lol. I will have to say that I have the cutest nieces in the whole wide world. I just love them all! I just am lucky enough to see tenley almost everyday. She finally gets excited when I come over and gives me the cheesiest smile! She is a cheese ball. Seriously! I was talking to Leah on the phone today and I was telling her how I dont have to try to make tenley laugh she makes me laugh. Then she laughs harder when I laugh! Rachelle you and scott have a goofy kid! So I my life has been crazy lately. Let's see. My dad came down. It was a fun little weekend. From running in the sprinklers with the girls to giving dad a massage at midnight. Needless to say that I hadnt told my dad I bought a car. I was a little scared of his reaction. I dont think he is very happy with me. Sorry dad! But I promise I can afford it! Then I called my work and they were nice enough to let me come to work late so we could go play raquet ball early. My dad is so good! She are you scott! I just plain out suck lol. I'm a bat kind of girl not a racket. Needless to say dad and scott played eachother and I just stood there trying to dodge the ball so I wouldnt get hit. And yet somehow I was still sore the next morning! That's weird! But it was a fun weekend. Well and I guess since the word is out I'll post a picture of my car! BAH! I BOUGHT A NEW CAR! It's an '09 pontiac vibe! And I love every bit of it. The seats fold down so my massage table slide right in. Which is why I was gonna get a truck. But this gets way better gas mileage and is way cuter. I've loved the three free months of xm radio but three months is just about up. Sad day! Anyways I have loved it and so have my friends! Atleast I think. A certain friend on a mission thinks they are ugly! Poor guy lol cause he's might have to drive it! Next well I moved into a new apartment. Not new it is really old but new to me. lol. But the two girls I was living with are moving out. One got into dixie state the other one is moving home. I'm not sure what i will do yet. I think I might have found a girl to room with. Rent is cheap though so it ok. I'm also staying in my singles ward. I met with the bishop of the ward that I am supposed to be in and he told me to pray about it. And i did and feel like I need to stay in my old ward for atleast the summer. Which already I have seen reasons why. I've met new friends there lately who have helped me out a lot. Who would have thought an 18 year old just graduated senior could have such good advice and help me in life! Me Vanessa who is the queen of advice for people. Once again I was talking to leah about my friend Bridget today. I never thought someone so much younger then me could help me so much. Leah laughed really hard when I said that Bridget and my other amazing friend Hailee have so much energy and sometimes is wears me out. Love it though! Leah just couldn't believe that someone could wear me out. lol! Anyways I am so excited for this summer. Lots of fun coming with all my friends! BAH Bridget and Kira I am so excited! We've already done some crazy stuff. One of my favorites is drive in movies! Love it! Another is we drove to oregon on saturday just cause I had never gone! We ate in a town right on the border and sadly I got food poison! But I am all better now. Needless to say I am not a big fan of oregon! Then monday we decided to make a music video! I am so excited to see it. One of our guy friends is editing it. Dont worry I will post it. I'm excited for this crazy summer. Yesterday I was giving a massage and I looked up to the clock and it has the date on it and realized yesterday was June 4th. Which meant it had been 1 year since nolan left for his mission! Crazy how time flies. So all together he has served 17 1/2 months. Time is flying by. The other day I got a note in my work file asking if I could meet with the clinic manager. I was a little nervous at first. But she was really happy when I walked in and kept commenting on my hair so I was like few nothing bad lol! Anyways she asked me to be on of the three clinic therapist assistants. I was shocked cause I am one of the youngest therapist. I just work hard cause I love my job! But I'm excited for this position! I gave my first practical today. Which basically is a free massage for me from a therapist who has passed the verbal interview. I was so nervous until I realized that the girl was more nervous then me. Then I realized wait I already have the job she's the one trying to get it! lol! Made it a lot better! It went really really well. Anyways I am really really honored to be one of the three they picked! Hard work pays off! Well now that I have written a book I'll post some pictures!

This is tenley right now. I changed her diaper and she stole it from me and this is the face she made when I asked for it back. Oh I love her! Here is my car. Pretty much exact! I think mine might be a little darker. But mine has the spoiler and tinted windows! Love it!So I dont know if I should clame these two girls lol! This is at the drive in the other week! This picture cracks me up. We are stuffing our freakn faces and laughing out butts off. That seems to happen with us three togther. Bridget is on the left and is one of my favorite people in the whole world! Only known her for like a month too! Love ya bridget! And then Kira is on my right! She's just about the best roomate I could ask for. I've loved our late night runs and our funny burst of laughter! I'm gonna miss living with you! Love you Kira!
