~ The biggest thing that happened this year though, would have to be when my dear grandma died. It was a hard time but I treasure all the time I got to spend with her while I went to school in Logan. I think that was part of the reason why I was meant to go to Utah State, so that I would get to spent her last years with her. And through it all I also have grown really close with my grandpa. I am very blessed!

 

 

 

 ~2013 has been great but I am so ready to see what 2014 will bring! I am ready to embrace whatever comes, including the cold weather when I go back to Logan..... PEACE AND LOVE!
