Wedding's

So I have come to realize that I really do love going to wedding's. I use to not like going because they would make me sad to think that I am not even close to getting married, or maybe my day will never come . But my day will come when I am not even looking. Weddings make me very happy and I was so glad that I got to go to Chuck and Amy's wedding. I have gone though the whole relationship with them and it has been a great experience. I am so happy for the both of them.


After going to the sealing in the Temple it makes me realize how important Temple Weddings are. There is a special spirit that happens when your are in there. It makes me want to try harder and not saddle for anything less. I am so happy for Chuck and Amy they deserve the best. They are great and fun loving people.

School....

So everyday I drive by the high school here in Zephryhills, FL and they never seem to be there very long. I remember when I went to school I was there from like 8am to 3pm. Here they seem to go in at 9pm and leave by like 2pm. What is up with that. There are always cops outside the school to back sure the people that are driving by follow the speed limit of 15mph in the school zone. If you are even going over by like 2 miles they will get you. Its crazy to me.
This is what I blog about when I have nothing else to write about.

Y.M.C.A.........


I joined the YMCA yesterday. YEAH for me to get back into the habit of working out again. So lately I have not been happy with the way that I have been treating myself so I decided that I need to get off my butt and do something about it. So I did and the best part is when I go back on the ship I can cancel my membership without a plenty and I can start my membership back up when I am off the ship. The have awesome classes that they teach. Today was my 1st day at working out at the center. I did water aerobics, it was great. But it also kicked my trash. Who knew that you would get a hard core workout in the pool. They have a state of the art workout room. The best part about it was there were lots of older people there working out. They are so cute. I am excited about getting back on track.

Temple ...

I went to the Temple the other day with my parents. I love going to the temple. It is great to be able spend that time with my mom and dad. When I was in NY I went the Palmyra Temple. It was awesome to get to go. I loved it. My parents don't get to go that much because it is 3 hours away. When they come to visit FL they always go to the temple because its only 1 1/2 hours away after there 3 hour flight. LOL.

Time in NEW YORK........

WOW....... it has been for ever since I have blogged. I am such a slacker. I have busy and bored over the last 2 months that I have spent in NY. I have relearned a lot about myself and my family. My family is definitely crazy when we are all together. I learned that I can still drive in the snow and that I am not a fan of it. I also am not a fan of the cold.
I am very grateful to have been home for the holidays. I have not been able to spend the holidays at home or even have the time off for the holidays in 3 1/2 years. I was great to not have to worry about work or anything else while being home. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, we as a family get together and go to my grandmothers and over eat turkey and just hang out as a family. I love it. At this time I was also again reminded of the many blessing that I have been giving. I often sometimes forget to be grateful for what the lord had blessed me with.
Christmas was a blast this year. I did not get that much in the present department but that's ok. I would rather give gifts then get them in return, and I don't have antwhere to put anything that I would get. It all started off with a church Christmas party. My parent are the Activity co-chairs so I got to help with the planing. My 1st task was to help my dad with a homemade fireplace.

This was the out come. Not to bad.
My dad had come up with idea of Christmas morning. So everyone ( even the adults) came in there PJ's. The kids were going to be a train and they where to stop at different Christmas stations. The train because most of the TV Christmas movies have a train going around the tree. So that is why the kids were lined up in a train. At each station the kids learned the real meaning behind Christmas.

This is the kids starting the train and my dad showing them what to do.


The kids and the adults had a lot of fun. It made me remember what is was like to be a kid around Christmas. It made me want to be a kid again and not have the worries of the world and growing up.

I am grateful for the time that I got to spend with my 3 year old niece. It was the most time that I got to spend with here since she was born because I have lived in FL.

She is so Cute. I love this girl.

The best part about being home was that I did not have work to hard. I did have a job on the side doing computer work but it got boring really fast. I now know that I don't want to be stuck in an office all day looking at a computer. So I have come to the conclusion that I going to go back to FL where it is warm and I don't have to deal with snow.

2 Weeks



This pic is the hill outside my window. As you see there is about 8in of snow. it is good for snowmobiling.
Well I have been in NY for a little over 2 weeks and I have not done much. Here is a list of things that I have done:
1. Watched almost all of my movies
2. Went to Temple
3. Helped dad get a truck load of wood
4. Got snow tires on my car
5. Hung out with my niece
6. Done Nothing

I am not going to Mexico so I will be staying in NY for the time being. I have been really board. I have been out of work for a month now and I think that it is time that I got a job for the next couple of months until I go back to Alaska in April.

I now have snow tires on my car so I can now go places if the weather is not bad.My house is in the middle of no ware so the roads can get pretty bad when we get a lot of snow and rain that turns to ice. Today it is raining and that is freezing to everything. We did not go to church today b/c the road already had ice on it. We are going to stay in and watch movies all day. That is what I have been doing with most of my time so there nothing different.

New York

Well I left Orlando Florida on November 14th. It was a 2 day journey to NY, that was very long 22 hours of driving. I am glad that Mom and Dad were with me. I will admit that they did most of the driving and I did a lot of sleeping which is all I can do so I don't get car sick. We stopped in NC for the night. It rained most of the drive. So I was glad that I did not have to drive that much because I am not a big fan of driving in the rain. When we woke up in the morning there where tornado warnings in the area so we got out of there as soon as we could. That day the rain was behind us most of the time. Which was good.

Delhi New York has not changed much since I left 3 years ago. I like that a little bit because it is easy to get back in to the swing of things but on the other hand it is still boring there is not much to do. There is not too many members my age to hang out with so I am board already. But I will make it work. Its good to be back home to see my family and friends. I have missed them. I don't miss the cold weather though. It has not got above 35 degrees, which I am not liking to much. I guess I will have to get used to it if I will be here for while.

I still have not heard about Mexico. That makes me think that I did not get it for this season. I kinda have a plan for now but not really. I am going to reapply for the Alaska season in April. I should get that because they need more people for that season. I got offered my old job back at the jail if I want it. Which I might take because it is pretty good money and the hours are nice. But I am really not going to start until after the holidays. Since I have not be home for them in almost 4 years. I am happy about that. I might even start apply for other cruise ship jobs. But I am still hoping that I get Mexico.
