Bruddah.

My wittwe bwothew turned 17 yesterday.
This makes me....
OLD!
He's going to be an ADULT next year.
And i'll be 19 in 3 months.
Holy cow.
I don't wanna grow up.

Anyways.
Brad is great.
I miss his Chellie voice and his massive hugs every time I walk in the door.
And fighting over the car is great too.
Nah.
Ever since i've gone to college,
We've gotten along so much better.
Cause.
Let's be honest.
I miss him.
So.
In the spirit of missing him,
I actually like hanging with him when I'm home.

This picture is SO old. Ha.

Happy Birthday Brad.
Go kiss someone for me.
Just kidding.
You're awesome.
I love you.

This girl goes home in 9 days....
Can you believe it???

Conference.

"Walk with the confidence that God will guide your steps."
- David A. Bednar

Obviously, my favorite talk was Bednar's.
It was seriously so amazing.
Light.
Such an interesting topic.

I am so grateful for this weekend.
For all the talks given.
They were seriously so amazing.
Such a spiritual boost.
I now know I can do anything these next 3 weeks to finish out college.
I'm also thankful for Aly and Jess.
They are such great friends.
They lifted me up when I needed it the most. :]
So.
Hello Finals Week.
Come and get me.
Isn't it awesome that Heavenly Father knows what you need most?

This kid?
He's in Germany.
Berlin is now a place I need to visit ASAP.
That picture makes it look so appealing huh?
Ha! ;]
Later.

Grow up.
Buck up.
And move forward.

What a blessing it is in our lives.

Mom.

Happy birthday to the greatest mom in the world.

She's the pretty one in the purple.
I love my mother.
So much.
She seriously is my best friend.
I can talk to her about anything and everything.
And we laugh.
A lot.
And she's the only one who can make fun of my past weirdness.
And boyfriends.
And misfortunes.
She is such a strength in my life.
I don't know what I would do without her.
I miss her so much, and I only live 325 miles away.
We talk almost every day.
I wish I could be there for her big day.
But alas.
College calls.

Happy 47th Mommy.
I love you so much.
Thank you for being my best friend.
I'll see you soon.
..chelle..
