Class of 2011.

These last few weeks have been pure craziness! This year we have had 3 different graduations to attend. Kaden's brother Collin graduated from West Side High school Wednesday night, May 25. It really wasn't that bad to sit through surprisingly. Lets be honest its not any thrill ride to have to sit through a graduation ceremony. It was actually pretty cool. I have to say by far my favorite part was coach Moser's speech. It was funny, short, and to the point! kinda like how all speeches should be :] . He gave some great advice and told how proud he was of the graduating class of '11. I never knew this but there is a man who donates lots of money to the students enrolled in concurrent classes. Him and his brothers are all apart of this and they were recognized by the State Board of Idaho Education. WOW! As i sat there i thought "I could think of a million other ways to spend all this money on if i were in their shoes and how awesome and devoted they were" West Side recently built an Arts Center auditorium and with honor named the building after these brothers. The band/orchestra performed a number that i almost thought would never end! It was quite the song but they did do a good job. As a graduate from Preston High School I honestly felt like about 20 people graduated that night, Its crazy!

On Thursday night we also had a graduation to attend at Preston High School. My BEST FRIEND who i could honestly call my sister, Jaycee Foster, graduated! It's so crazy that a whole year ago i was sitting in those chairs in the middle of the gym floor. Time sure does fly by so dang fast! I'm so happy/excited for Jaycee though! She is planning on moving to Logan this coming fall and attending USU. Their graduation class was a whole lot bigger than West Sides, by far! And it sure felt like it was never gonna end! They too had a couple speakers except i wasn't really touched by any of them, sad to say. I did however see LOTS of people! Some of them I hadn't seen since last year, classmates, teacher, etc. It was so crazy to see how some people changed a lot and some people mostly stayed the same! It made me wonder what their thoughts were about me? All in all it was a good night! :]

And in just this upcoming week, my Uncle Joseph will be graduating from Mountain Crest High School. This for me is just crazy! I'm so happy and excited for him. I hope the best for him in everything life brings him! He plans to Serve a mission and attend college [I think he told me USU :]]

As for me! I am proud and a little excited to announce this coming week is my LAST full week of Beauty School!!! I have dreamt of this day for a whole year. This past year has gone by extremely fast for some aspects of my life and for others [beauty school] it sure has been a rough and VERY LONG road. I am so glad the light at the end of the tunnel is coming! It sure is a big relief to know I am just about there. I am glad that through the bumps in the road I never gave up. I know I will never regret finishing :] Thanks to the amazing support from my "soon-to-be-husband", Kaden, my best friend Jaycee, My grandparents, family, and everyone who helped me get through it all! I couldn't have done it without ALL OF YOU.

"Life on The Farm" :]

Last Sunday, May 15, Me and Kaden took a ride out to his family's farm. They own a Dairy called Dunes Dairy. We arrived just in time to see some good things happen! 

This is Justin, Kaden's dad, Feeding "Bucket Calves". I'm no Guinness at farming but from my understanding when calves are born they are fed from bottles and as they get a little older they move on to being fed from buckets, as you can see :]



 This Calf was by far my Favorite! She really stuck out to me and she was soo friendly, she loved every chance I had to pet her :] Don't mind my hair it was just blowing everywhere and out of control!
This is Isabelle, Kaden's sister, feeding a "bottle calf" She pretty much loves her life and job on the farm.

These are some pretty funny Video clips of Isabelle feeding a bottle calf. She was having a hard time getting the calf to hold still and feed it at the same time. Kaden is in the background "coaching" her through it. The wind is blowing really hard so it sounds kind of funky but you get the jist.

SCORE!!

Last Tuesday, May 10, 2011, Jordan had a soccer game in Hyde Park. The Team they played was extremely competitive. Although they did lose they played a good game. Jordan has grown to love soccer and everything about it. He puts a lot of time and effort in this sport. We are all very proud of him! Here are just a couple pictures I snagged at the game, they were takin with my phone so they may not be all that clear.

-Hard at work:]

Today Kaden and I decided to be extremely productive... Yesterday we got excited news that our apartment will be ready to move in by THURSDAY! We are so excited we will have our very own place and we just can't wait :] Soo today, we painted our bookshelf/DVD holder. I am pretty sure Kaden had a blast doing it.

MOTHERS DAY!

Mothers day came and went so fast! I enjoyed spending the day with Jen [Kaden's mom] and her family. Kaden and I went to sacrament meeting in his parents ward and heard some pretty good talks. I think the first two talks last all together about 5 mins! haha, youth speakers! enough said, right? One kid even admitted that because it was mothers day he decided he would give his mom a break and write his own talk :] One of the adult speakers really hit home for me, not only because of his humor behind his talk but because the whole time he was talking i was thinking "Yeah, that's SOO true!" He talked about how [and yes i am paraphrasing:) ] his wife went on vacation and he had so much responsibility he didn't know what he was getting him into! He told about their "laundry situation" and how he swore he was doing at least 5 loads a day! Funny, right! He also mentioned his wife left preportioned meals and after about a couple days when he ran out of those he discovered an amazing thing called -"BIG J'S" haha. After sacrament meeting we made our way to Grandma Dianne and Grandpa Jay's house. We visited for a while and I ended up watching a movie and falling asleep, SURPRISE! :] Later that night Kaden had to work and I went with his family to Grandma Louise & Grandpa Melvin's house. We all told everyone what we had been doing since grandma & grandpa live in St. George for most of the winter months. After we were done and had gone through everyone, Jaxon [Matt&Melissa Beckstead's little boy] Sang and played on his toy-guitar a song for his grandma. I DID get the last half on video on my phone and I must say it was the cutest thing ever :] I will have to work on getting it on here to watch. We sure did eat some yummy deserts I might add!


P.S- He is Singing "Hey There Delilah" :]

I'm officially a BLOGGER.

Well, I'm officially a BLOGGER! I guess I'll start my telling a little about myself. I grew up in Preston Idaho, graduated from Preston High School in 2010. I am almost graduated from beauty school [by almost I mean about 22 days!] I met the love of my life in May 2010. Kaden grew up in Weston Idaho, attended West Side High School. He loved playing football and we love going and supporting his 2 younger brothers Collin & McCoy. This year in [2010-2011 school year] football they took the title as STATE CHAMPIONS! It was such an accomplishment for them and we are very proud! Kaden is attending Utah State and working 2 part time jobs. He is a hard worker and I LOVE him more than he could ever understand! He has truly been one of the BIGGEST blessings in my life! I can honestly say I don't know where I would be without him. We got engaged on November 13,2010. We are very excited for our big day! We are getting married in the Logan LDS Temple on June 17, 2011. We love our family and think the world of them!
