Biggest Volleyball Weekend! Feb 12-18

This new obsession with Taco Bell is getting out of hand.. But Monday we decided to make our own homemade Taco Bell! I am extremely grateful for Alayna who constantly makes me food :) 


Look how cute my brother is! Miss this kid!

Tuesday was Gallentines day!! Mikayla Skousen is one of my favorite people ever. She always plans these super fun events with tons of food! We took fun pictures, had cotton candy, and watched the Bachelor. It was a party!

Picture feature Quinn in his nature habitat.

Wednesday was Valentines day... it was a rough day for everyone! But the highlight was my 4 year old at work who made me a valentine the day before, and then Penn, who is one of my favorite kids!, I have been teasing him for weeks and telling him that he needs to bring me cookies. Well he did!! He saw me and goes, "Did you see I brought you cookies in the office". Love that kid!

 Some friends had a game night in the dance studio. We played the paper bag game and feather volleyball. It was an adventure!

Thursday was such a pretty day!! I wore my jumpsuit and sat and talked to Christian outside for while. I love days like that!
 

That night I got to babysit one of my kids from work. We ate food, read books, and had a full on Disney dance party in the kitchen. I laughed and laughed. It was so fun!!

Alayna went out of town for the weekend, but look at this super sweet Valentines present. It was delicious!


Also spring is in the air!

Friday started the craziest weekend ever! The volleyball team played 3 nationally ranked teams this weekend starting with Marymount. It was such a crazy game AND WE WON! It was nuts! I get so anxious at these games. I just love these boys! 

We then had a date night with this crazy magician guy.. It was so weird. I went with Sarah who was in charge of taking pictures. It was so funny and awkward and exciting all at one time.

Saturday we had two more nationally ranked games! I was so stressed out. First we played Juniata. It was a crazy game to! It went to 5 sets and we won! I think I am going to be the first person to die due to stress at a volleyball game. Yup. Me. After that game I had to go home and take a nap! I was exhausted. We then played UC Santa Cruz. WE WON! It seriously was the craziest weekend ever!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Totally lost my voice.

I gave a talk on Sunday about Godly Fear. I have never really liked that term because in my head I would never want to Fear God. I need him on my side! But Elder Bednar said, "Godly fear is loving and trusting in Him. As we fear God more completely, we love Him more perfectly. And "perfect love casteth out all fear". I promise the bright light of godly fear will chase away the dark shadows of mortal fears as we look to the Savior, build upon Him as our foundation, and press forward on His covenant path with consecrated commitment." 

 Sunday night Ashely and I made some brownies while dancing in the kitchen with Christian haha! We then went over to Kaipo and Colby's house just talking about the games, and life, and just laughing. It was fun! I am so grateful for those guys!
