Something new....again!

Do you think that i can't stop doing my hair! :D Don't worry i can! But i needed a change for the summer! And what a drastic change it was! I wasn't expecting it to be this short, but I'm really starting to LOVE it! I just did it yesterday, and i haven't been able to stop touching it today! haha It's so weird to stop so suddenly instead of keep going. I have never been able to say that i CHOPPED my hair off......UNTIL NOW! I CHOPPED MY HAIR OFF! It was so long! I was so proud of myself of how long I had it. But it's so good to have a change! My head feels so much lighter, she also thinned it out too, so it's even lighter. Or it's because i have been sick since Sunday so it might just be that i'm light headed or something! I hate being sick. You can kind of tell in this picture, that i don't look so right! haha my eyes are puffy, and i think before or after this picture i almost coughed my lungs out! :D I know you all wanted to know that! It's been gross! But hopefully i will get better soon, and stop coughing! It's giving me a headache!

But i'm so excited for my new haircut! Here i come summer!! :D

Easter!

We had such a good Easter party at my Grandma's house. It's tradition every year that we all get together the Saturday before Easter, and have a Easter egg hunt, put a few holes in a pinata, and toss(which leads to throwing) eggs! It's alot of fun!

This year my brother and I had the opportunity to hide the eggs. We hide them outside in her yard. We had SO many eggs this year! It was crazy! Me and Brandon didn't know what to do with them all so we got creative!

We really liked out art work! It took Andrew, my cousin, about 5 minutes to get them all out! I had fun taking pictures! I needed some pics of our hard work before it disappeared in about 10 min from all the kids! Here are some more pics.

Basketball

So last weekend was an eventful one for me. My single's ward took first place in our Stake Tournament so we went on to Region. Were we took third. It was alot of fun. Thursday we basically killed the team we played. It was really sad, but we had fun. Then Friday came. :D The gym we had to play in was really really small. We still played 5 on 5, i felt more like a football game then a basketball game. It was so hard to play, both teams were really aggressive, so it was really hard to play. We luckily won by two points. Got to love those buzzer shots! So we had another game later that night, but we had moved to a different church. This gym was a full size court. So it was REALLY hard to go from really small to big! We got worn out really fast! We played a good game but lost by 4 or 5 points. So saturday morning we had another game to determine if we would go to the final game or not. Well my team didn't get good sleep or eat breakfast, so we weren't really equipped to play a game! We played good, but again lost by 5 points. None of us could really make any of our shots. But at the end of the game, i had the ball and the timer was running out so i knew i had to shoot it. I didn't know that i was past the 3 point line. But i made the shot! Right at the buzzer! It didn't help of course but the whole team thought i was holding out on them the whole time! I told them that i don't shoot three's, and if i do, i hardly make them. So it was a shock to me! The picture of me shooting is my buzzer shot. Luckily brandon took it!

Later Saturday i went shopping with my best friend Aislynn. We shopped around until i had to take her to her surprise. A trail in PG where her boyfriend waited for us with horses. It was really cute! And yes they got engaged! It was so cute! It was really fun to look at wedding dresses with her before she even knew what was going on! It was a crazy weekend!

Here are some of my basketball pictures:

The team showing off our bruises on our knees!

Growing up!

Well I've still been training to become a MSR for my job. But i forgot about one part that comes with it.....i also need to become a Notary! As some of you might know....for those who have heard about it....taking the Notary test is REALLY REALLY HARD!! I'm so excited about it. Ha! Catch the sarcasm??

Anyway so I'm studying my 50 page study guide right now, trying to remember everything and the wording and all it says so that i can take the test this week or the beginning of next. My boss prefers me to have this done before i become an official MSR. So I'm trying not to stress! My manager told me that she would help me, but I'm still nervous! I really shouldn't be. But it's hard when most of the people that have taken this test, has failed it their first time....and had people helping them. Does that tell you something??

Anyway so now, I'm studying for it, and preparing to know all this stuff, just so that i can stamp a piece of paper and sign it! :D

Other than that, my life now is just dandy! I was so excited for spring to come, i always am, but i seem to forget the part about spring that just kills me! Hay fever! The first week or two of it, just drives me insane! Saturday i had ran to the gym and ran back, but you see it was windy outside, so by the time i got home i was dying! My eyes were red and itchy and my nose was running and i couldn't stop sneezing! It was insane! I hate having hay fever! Cause all weekend long, i just randomly start crying...well my eyes water way bad! So people think there is something wrong with me! hahaha It's funny at first, but now its just plain annoying!

I wish the snow would stay away! I don't mind the rain. I love the rain! Just go away snow! Well I'm excited for this summer! First i get to go see my sister in May. She lives in Nebraska....so I'm flying there. NEVER been on a plane before so that will be a great adventure! I can't even wait!

Well i hope all of you are doing well! Miss you Amanda, Angela, and Joshua and your families! Miss my wonderful nephews!

Promotion

Well, something new at work finally happened! I'm quite excited about it, cause hopefully now i won't just be sitting there at work and twiddling my thumbs, but i will actually be doing something.
Last weekend, I was asked to become a MSR. For those of you who don't know what that is or means, its Member Service Representative. In other words a Loan Officer. But i was asked to go back and work in American Fork. I was shocked that the time was finally here, cause i knew i was next in line for the position, but i was also shocked that it would be in AF. So i had all weekend to think about it, and i was kind of stressing out, cause i really did not want to go back to AF. I finally got to Highland, and then they send me away again. I was sick of moving, so here i go again to move.
Anyway, I told them i would do it, but asked if there was anyway that i could stay here in Highland and be the MSR. Well Thursday came, and Stacey, my manager, went and talked to Jay, our boss, about it. I got a call that afternoon saying that I was to become a MSR......and i would be staying in Highland! I was so excited! I was practically beaming!
So I got my promotion, and i start training tomorrow. I hope that i will be able to remember everything. I am kind of nervous about it, but I'm way excited! And I was just expecting to get my own desk, but if Highland they just have offices! SO...I get my own office too! It will be weird, but so fun!
So that is what is up! Hope you all are doing well! I will keep you posted on how it's going! LOVE you all!
