Life keeps moving on

Life keeps moving on and there is nothing I can do to stop it. At times I feel this world is spinning faster than I handle. I miss when life was all about playing in the backyard, getting into messes my mom wished I wouldn't have found, soccer, kickball, and playing in the neighborhood until it got dark. Where my choices weren't a matter of life changing experiences.

Now my choices seem to be everything... Where to go to school, what guys to date, where my testimony stands/ how I can strength it, How to help bring other peoples spirits up while not letting it effect my own, how I need to enjoy my family every minute I am with them and not become easily frustrated (I know they love me and just want what is best for me), should I go on an LDS mission or continue with school/finding my husband, trying to keep my room clean, am I being the best example to the sisters in my ward and to my friends around me, etc.

Wow life just won't stop for anything. Good thing there are the little things in life that make me truly happy like... Letters from missionaries (I got one from Ryan and Jared this week), playing the guitar, drawing (I have a huge artistic side of me that I didn't know existed this year), taking photos, my niece and nephews, playing soccer, being surrounded by my friends here at Snow college, the gospel of Jesus Christ, and just so much more.

Here are some fun pictures from events that I have been up to lately.
