Decisons
- This is a quote I really liked I found somewhere I don't remember exactly where. It's by Elder Quentin L. Cook.
I have pondered the question of serving a LDS mission for a while now. I feel as if I should forth the effort, and if it's not for me, I will be redirected. I believe that it'll be good for me, and this gospel has brought much happiness into my life, and i wish to share that. I hope to start on my papers soon. I will keep it posted. Also, for when I do go on a mission, I am considering having a separate mission blog aside from this wonderful blog. I will post the link once it's created.

Stress Reliever Post
If blogging was a class, i would get a D+, maybe a C- if i'm lucky. It's been a pretty crazy year so far! Or should I say month? Anyway between school and work, it's keeping me super busy. I had some time to sit back on a mountain today looking over the valley. It was very relaxing to get away from all the stress. Just me, my dog, and my wide-angle lens. I don't have math homework today, so I decided to take advantage of this and write in my blog.
Utah State had a basketball game last night, and being in the pep band I was of course there. we beat Nevada 75-62. Pep band has always been a passion in my life. Playing music is always a great stress reliever.
I am going to briefly go over all the fun moments I've has despite all the stress.
This was taken when my sisters family was still living with us. I miss them very much! I call this photo "The lack of snow in Logan." When it had snowed we had many fun times sledding! (:
As many may know, I was in the USU Aggie Marching Band. USU ended up going to a bowl game this football season Which means the marching band "gets" to be dragged a long with them. I say dragged because I was not super enthused to go a first. I was so done with marching band rehearsals, and season. I ended up haveing a very great time!(: I am so glad I had the opportunity to be in marching band this sememser. It was a grand experience! We went to New Mexico for the bowl game against UTEP and won! The top picture is of the hotel we stayed in! It had an indoor river! (picture below) The second picture is of my friend Liz and I ( she plays alto saxophone too) dorking off. It was an all around fantastic trip!(:
This is a river in front of our hotel room. Yes a RIVER in front of our ROOM. and that's Liz attempting to dive in 11 inches of water.
Work has been... well not fun, but I've made some awesome friends there who I'll never forget! Kenna is so fun to work with, and always makes me laugh.. The top photo is at Charlie's Icecream!(:
Another great friend I've made from work is awesome guy above. Robin and I were on the same team, or department at DI. Yes we fit into a large pair of 69 size pants.
When we had snow Danny and I attempted to build an igloo with help from Mitchell and Sadie. Danny and I go way back on igloo building. Back in Washington we gathered the neighbor kids and build an igloo. We remember six specifically. There was our double-decker igloo that lasted till about the middle of April. We tried to put windows on on of them before it got wrecked by a snow plow. Igloo building is in our blood! We have icy veins. We are half Eskimo because of how crazy we are.

Another silly picture of Robin and me dorking off.
So all in all I don't like work, but I'm glad for it because of the amazing people i have met there.
Above picture is Audrey and Redick(I'm pretty sure, but could be Reid) Sliding down stairs on their stomachs. This made me smile, and reminded me of my childhood.
The bottom photo is my new nephew Layne. He got his baby blessing Sunday February 1, 2015. Isn't he just adorable!?
While on the topic of nieces and nephews here's a silly photo of Kaja and I taking "selfies" (it feels so wrong to use that word selfie) We try and make long car rides fun.

Danny and Nigel. What you lookin' at mister?
Izzie and me. Stop kissing me, okay?
Being a Seattle native, Starbucks unfortunately, but naturally runs in my blood. However, Tatiana has never had Starbucks, and wanted to try it. We went to Starbucks and got smoothies. (NotcoffeeYuk!) Of coure we took fifty pictures with the experience.
I completed my BATC course of Vet Assistant/Pre-Vet Tech on December 4, 2014. I worked so hard to earn this!
Enjoy a few shots I took today from the mountains with my Wide-Angle lens. The sky looked so surreal!
As always, I would like to close with a song.
This is an unreleased recent song by Adam Young called If I Stand. Originally by Rich Mullins
"So if I stand let me stand on the promise
That You will pull me through
And if I can’t let me fall on the grace
That first brought me to You"
And if I can’t let me fall on the grace
That first brought me to You"
I like this phrase in the chorus very much.
I interpret it to be like making your promise with God or covenants, and trying to be like Him to make it back to Him. He will help guide you and will "pull you through." He wants you to be happy, and to eventually return to Him. We all make mistakes and fall, and this makes me realize how grateful I am for the Savoir's Atonement and saving grace. "In His strength I can do all things." Alma 26:12
