So I Went to AZ

I had the opportunity to go Home for a weekend from the 7/21-7/24. I love Arizona, it was so refreshing to go home! I was so happy I was able to be there to throw my brother, Kevin, a Missionary shower and see him off. That's my sister Kelly kissing him with me. I'm so proud of him, He is such a good kid, and I know he's going make an amazing missionary. Because my sister was in town for my brother's farewell I was able to spend time with my little niece Svea Lina Neilson. She was just born 7 weeks ago and is my parents first grandchild! I love her, she is so cute!!!

New Place

YAY! We finally moved out of our raunchy, smoke filled apt in Waco to a Duplex on TSTC campus...also in Waco! It is soooo much better! I'm probably the most excited because I don't have to hear the domestic violence going on in the apartments next to us. My favorite part about my new place is that the kitchen is 4 times bigger than my old kitchen, I have a dishwasher and i have a laundry room!!!!!

TSTC

Cory is in Air Traffic Control School at Texas State Technical College, and this is him standing proudly in-front of the entrance sign. I am so proud of him, he is doing incredibly in his program.

So my mom, my sister and I went to Las Vegas along with all of the women in our family for a Cousins retreat. We had a blast as you can plainly see in our Honey Bee costumes. In this picture we happened to be teaching a class on Pres. Hinckley's 9 Be's.

Valentines Day

I had such a wonderful Valentines Day! Valentines Day fell on a Monday this year so Cory drove down to Austin to surprise me. He met me after work with a beautiful bouquet of roses and tulips!

It snowed in Waco!!!!!!!

It snowed in Waco! I was so excited when it snowed, this is the first place that I have ever lived that it has snowed. The next day the sun was out and the snow melted away, that was enough snow for me. One snow-fall a Winter. Just enough to make a snow angel.

This was Awesome! Over christmas break my whole family hiked Camelback Mountain. It was funny, when we got to the top there was a tree decorated like a christmas tree.
