Packing. Moving is a lot more work than I thought it was going to be! I love my house, but this chapter has to come to a close. Every night, I can see wishes from my house. The best place to see it is the far end of my pool. And every night it feels like Illuminations is attacking my house. It is beautiful and wonderful... but I will not miss this years New Year's fireworks everyday the entire WEEK before the new year going off with the perimeter countdown to midnight. No no. And I love my nice forest, and little development in the area. But I will really enjoy the Starbucks right around the corner at the new Condo in Hunters Creek. I will miss the townhouse. I will miss the random conversations with my roomates. I will miss the garage... but not cutting the lawn! Most of all I will miss having Magic Kingdom as my backyard. But this is a step forward. A new house with two of my girls. A room twice the size of my own now, and a walk in closet. Could a girl ask for more? But what shall I paint my room? hmmm...

Oh! Someone should have warned me, the bed is the LAST thing to move. haha. Well, heres to another night of sleeping on the floor!

Saturday was Meredith and Bryan's Wedding! It was beautiful. Simple and Classic. I know she tried to stay away from the Disney Princess feel... since we have to live with it everyday. But of coarse she danced to So This Is Love from Cinderella. Aside from the long drive, I really enjoyed the day. *I don't remember the last Saturday I've had off* But it was just what I needed right before the load of finals that befell apon me this week. The best part was you can totally tell they wanted to taylor the wedding to fit them. And outside we went for the garder toss. Here stands this giant rock climbing wall from Bryan to throw from.

And so I must stop proctastinating and study for my finals!

Every year on April 7th I make a dedication to all the things I am greatful for. Today is that day of days I often think about... many moons ago. The most wonderful few precious moments that I would give anything to have back. Some times I dream about it, relive every detail in my mind. There are times I can't breathe. But then it passes me by. But I do have to say I am greatful for the amazing things I have gotten to do/to learn/to have this past year. All the people I have met. And of coarse the amazing friends and family I have are more than I can ever ask for. Everyone in my life goes above and beyond the call of duty. Just today I was telling a good friend, you need to take it easy once and a while. Always going and going... trying to save to world. You need to let someone save you time and again.

So my plea. Take the time. Everyday. Think of a reason to be greatful and thank those around you. And at the same time, be good to you self!

Today was one of the best days I've had in a very long time. We went to DHS in the morning. It was one of those morings where you really had to kick yourself to get going. But then we were off! We hit up all the favs. We even visited some power rangers. *my favorite thing to do at studios* Wesley even got pulled into the car by the rangers to get a group picture!! And then we had lunch at Mama Melrose. Of coarse, I had to cut it short and leave for a few hours because I had to go to class. But by the time I got back, Mere was there and we rode rockin' before waiting for Fant!

Story time with Essick

So tonight, the 9 year old little girl we were with told me she liked to read. But not to tell anybody. I asked why not. And she replies; "I'm known as the dancer girlie type, and if anyone found out I liked to read I won't be so popular." I was just shocked to begin with... How girls grow up and the level of self confidence a kid has got to have now days to make it through adolence. I respond with, "It doesn't matter what anybody else thinks. You just be you, and people will like you." -"But people see me as popular..." and I cut her off to make a Hannah Montana reference to how everyone loves Hannah because shes famous. But people don't look twice at Miley. Miley is the SAME person as Hannah and just as cool, but some people don't see that. And if they don't, they are not worth your time!
