New Babies!

Seth and Heidi had their sweet little girl tonight! Courtney Kay Waddoups! I am sure they will post lots of pictures and tell all about her on their blog, but I just wanted to tell them congratulations! She is a beautiful baby and licks her lips like a lizard! :) I am so happy she is here finally! Seeing her made me so excited for my sister Jennifer and her husband Dave to have their baby in just a couple months!! I am so lucky to have sisters who have babies! ha I love it!! 

Happy Mothers Day to all of you moms out there!! I can't wait to be a mom one day! I hope my mom knows how much I love her! I am so lucky to have a mother who has always taught me what is right, and has stood by me in my hardest times! She is always concerned about me and only wants the best for me! I couldn't ask for anyone better than my mommy!! 

Happy Mothers Day Mama Francis! I love you! 

So... I am a little late..

I am sorry it has taken me so long to post about my trip to Hawaii to visit Brittany! Once I got back from my trip I had to start working full time at the school, and I have been so tired! ha It sounds so pathetic but i really do think it is easier to go to school full time and work, rather than just work full time! ha ha But my trip was a blast!! I didn't want to come home! Each morning started early with breakfast in Britt's apartment, then swim suites were put on and off we went! We spent our time sailing, at the PCC and Pearl Harbor, hiking to and jumping off waterfalls, running, swimming in the OCEAN, surfing, shopping, listening to whales, eating shave ice and watching Korean soap operas! ha ha.. It was a very relaxing, fun filled trip and I was so happy to be with my sister!! Here are a few pictures! I hope you like them!

PS. my triathlon is next Saturday! I am pretty sure I might die! Wish me luck! I am REALLY scared!!! I will let you all know how it goes!

Word of Advise....

If and when you decide to run 5 miles in the pouring rain... remove ALL eye makeup first. 

That is all. 

Oh and I leave for Hawaii in the morning and I can NOT wait!!! :)

I'm an Associate... ha ha ha

So... yesterday was my GRADUATION!! I can't believe I made it! What an experience it was to go to school at LDSBC... it was fun at times, hard, time consuming, and frustrating... but it was worth it! Even though I have chosen to get my bachelors in something other than interior design, I am really happy I did it! I have so many new friends and have learned so much! Once the ceremony was over, I got really excited to continue my education at Weber State University next spring. I can't wait to get my bachelors degree! As Weird as it all sounds... I really like going to school! I kind of always have! At times it is hard, and I wish I could quit, it is so fun! Anyway.. here are just a few pictures from the big day! My dad didn't really get very good pictures, but there is always next time to make up for it! :)

All of the Interior Design girls.. and Jake! :)

Marianne, Katie and Me! These were the first friends I made!! 

Me and Katie Walking into Graduation! 

My 20th Birthday!!!

I started my birthday off by going to breakfast, and then heading to school! Unfortunately my portfolio event was on the same day, so it was a long, busy, stressful day! But I made it! I am DONE with school!! I can't believe I am still alive to say that!  Here is a picture of my LAMEEEEEE portfolio! 

This is my dear friend Mary! She is a crack up, and seriously the only reason I made it though AutoCAD this last semester! I love you Mary!!! I am so glad we became friends!!! 

Katie and me!! Making friends at school is fun!! We met our first semester and have been friends ever since!

After my portfolio event, my parents took me to dinner at PF Changs.. One of my favorites! Then we went home and I had flowers from Clint/ his mom, Sue, and the cutest Birthday cake made by my BFFFAE Emily Dawn Ross!! Thanks SB! I love you! 

Here are my Balloons, presents, and cake! 

Also, when I returned home, I went down stairs to my room to put some things away, and found my room full of little primary children!! They threw me a little surprise party! I loved it!! I love my calling! And everyone in my ward!! I am blessed to be in the Mapplewood Ward! This is me and Tanner!!! I love him! 

Felicity and Liam! She was the brains behind the whole "surprise party" ha ha Thanks Felic! I love you!

The Whole gang!
