Dad keeps telling me that I need to find a man because they need more grandbabies... haha and I say "goin on a mission, leavin him wishin..." :) Someday... but not today.





In other news, I want to talk about pajamas. The pajamas I got for Christmas have changed my life for the comfier. They are maroon with black bears on them from Cabela's. They are SERIOUSLY THE MOST COMFY PANTS IN THE WORLD. Hands down. I look forward to the evening time just so I can put them on. It is like sitting in a cloud. I seriously want everyone to have a pair of these pajamas... then we would have world peace.

In even other news, I cleaned the beast today. There was mold under the rubber mat. Maybe that is why it stinks haha. Thanks to carpet cleaner and the trusty shop-vac I think I have it all under control for now. The only thing I need to complete the station wagon fung shui is a peachy peach air freshener. FOUR MORE DAYS until I go back to school.

Life.

Things are pretty good these days :) I put my two weeks notice in a couple days ago at work. I am SO EXCITED to go back to school. I love the atmosphere there. I will be living with my friends Nikki and Rachelle from here in Olympia (because my old roomies are all either on missions or going to be!). Carriage House 208...incase you happen to be in town haha. This weekend was the Bricker Christmas party. It was pretty good, always nice to see everyone...haven't been on a road trip with Mom and Dad in a while but it wasn't too bad haha. Yay for family roadtrips.

Now it is time to pack. I promised Mom this year that I wouldn't leave her in a whirlwind with a trashed room this year haha. Usually I wait until the last minute and leave a bunch of crap behind... this year will be different :)

Today I was incharge of teaching Relief Society. Teaching is definitly something that is growing on me. I hated it before but now I enjoy it... not because I'm up their talking, but, because I get to ask the questions! haha.

True and Lasting Happiness

True and lasting happiness comes only through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. When I am living the principles of the Gospel I am filled with God's love. I am filled with the Spirit. This is a feeling greater than any drug, any drink, any accomplishment, any food, any guitar or car or clothes... this is something more - something pure, something great, something sustaining.

When I am keeping the commandments and living the Gospel, there is no void in my heart. It only overflowing with joy. That is the BEST feeling... my favorite feeling. But nevertheles I can't prove it to you. You must find out for yourself.
