So You Think You Can Dance

Since season one, I have always been A HUGE fan of "So You Think You Can Dance" Now eight years later I still am enjoying it as much as I did then! Audrey and Matthew are already huge fans of mine! And what would make me like them even more! A "Titanic" inspired piece. Can't get much better than this!

Dare to Be

Found this Quote Today. Great words of wisdom! Any of you have great quotes to share?

“Dare to Be"

When a new day begins, dare to smile gratefully.

When there is darkness, dare to be the first to shine a light.

When there is injustice, dare to be the first to condemn it.

When something seems difficult, dare to do it anyway.

When life seems to beat you down, dare to fight back.

When there seems to be no hope, dare to find some.

When you’re feeling tired, dare to keep going.

When times are tough, dare to be tougher.

When love hurts you, dare to love again.

When someone is hurting, dare to help them heal.

When another is lost, dare to help them find the way.

When a friend falls, dare to be the first to extend a hand.

When you cross paths with another, dare to make them smile.

When you feel great, dare to help someone else feel great too.

When the day has ended, dare to feel as you’ve done your best.

Dare to be the best you can –

At all times, Dare to be!” ― Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

Families are Forever!

I'm probably bias but seriously I feel I am so blessed and have one of the most amazing families ever. For the 4th of July all my family was able to get together for a little family reunion. We don't all get to be together very often since I have siblings who's own families live in other states outside of Utah. This time was especially special to me being with the family, because I knew it would be the last time we would all be together before I leave on my mission! I have nine beautiful nieces and nephews and I love every single one of them! My parents always taught us the importance of family, and have been great examples to me my whole life. All the Sisters together at our favorite place, Cafe Rio!

One of the funnest things we did as a family is we put on a mini peter pan scavenger hunt. My dad is in the process of building a tree house pirate ship and so we wanted to take the kids on a little adventure. My mom made costumes for all the grand kids (who says you can't have Halloween in June) and I put together the scavenger hunt providing clues of pirate items they had to find until they found the treasure chest full of treasure! Then afterwards we all watched Peter Pan.
