did i see that right?

In case you have not heard, I got accepted to BYU (Provo, sorry to Aunt Luana) and will be attending the winter semester this coming January. Am I the only one a little freaked out by that? It is crazy how fast I have grown up in just these past few months already. And for some reason I have quite enjoyed my senior year of school. Some days I actually look forward to going. Its something I never thought I would hear myself say. Well, that is my update for the week or month or until I decide to post again.

oops

I forgot to mention something about getting a pedicure on Friday. You can go to Beth's Blog, Summers Camp to see that. And for some reason it might not let you comment on the previous post. Sorry.

i think its about time

Yes, I know it has been a very very very long time since I last posted. I had not really felt the need to post anything, but seeing as how today is my birthday, I decided to go ahead and do it anyway. Currently I am working on my application for BYU. This is my last semester at high school and then I leave for college in January. I am not a little kid anymore, I am almost an adult. Is that right? So far, my senior year at high school has been very enjoyable. None of my classes are really hard. Economics seems to be one of my favorite classes right now. I got a new suit for my birthday which I am pretty excited to be able to wear eventually. So that is my life. Are you updated enough everyone?

Oh, and this is my senior picture. Pretty good right?

who's important

I feel like expressing a more poetic side of mine own self this evening. Being who I am, I always wonder if I am important. Of course, there are those people on this earth who are important- like Jesus Christ and Joseph Smith- but do I make a difference? To someone, I hope I can, and I guess that is what counts. I have some purpose here on this earth, may be something big, may be something small. I guess it does not really matter. What matters is that I am here, and I do what I can. I have learned much in my youth- from parents and church and just being on this earth. Now all I have to do is figure out what I am supposed to do with all of that. Do I take all that and try to become someone important, or do I just go through life like an ordinary person. I am sure that many people feel that they have a special purpose in life. I being one of them. But I suppose that I do not need to have a special purpose in life, or be someone important in order for me to be happy. I need no more than what I have now. To me, that is the most important.


Oh, and for thos that wanted to know what prom was like... it was good and made me happy- which you know is most important. Live life to the fullest and love everything because if you don't, well then you can never learn to know true happiness.

No that is not my date, but I look happy

That is my date

who is that good lookin' guy?

Just to make some people happy I decided to post pictures of me in my tux, preparing for Prom tomorrow.

is that light at the end of the tunnel? oh no, my eyes!!!

So yeah, I only have like 24 days of school, or something like that, left. The ACT sucks too. I had to take that on Wednesday, but at least it was free. I am pretty pumped for the summer, even though it is already 100 degrees outside. Oh, and pie rules.

double wahoo!

Two great and wonderful things have happened. The most important, as Adam has already informed most, my little niece was born on Wednesday. Her name is Elsie and she is a beautiful baby. I have not had the privilege to see her in person yet, but I get to go visit her this week because it is, SPRING BREAK. That is the other, less important thing. It has truly been a blessing to be an uncle, and I long for that time where I get to be a father myself. Life is just so full of so many wonderful things, and I get to be in the middle of all of it.

My favorite niece and nephew
