Voting

Today I am grateful for the electronic voting system. Just imagine how annoying it would be if we were still counting all the votes by hand. I for one, am glad its electronic now. I would not want to be the one counting all the votes. Definitely makes life easier.

Mash Up

I've mentioned before that I am kind of a nerd. I came across this little video of joy the other day. And it made me laugh. I don't know how people have time to do these things, but I'm grateful for them. I need a good laugh every once in awhile.

Scary Stories

Seeing as it is almost Halloween, I figured I would share some horror stories. I love Halloween and all the spookiness that goes along with it. Enjoy!

Talking Babies

This video has been around for awhile, but my dad just reminded me of it and I couldn't stop laughing. I love how these twins are totally having their own conversation. Super cute!

Skype

In my opinion, Skype (or any other form of video chat) is one of the greatest inventions. I have a niece who is three years old, and she loves calling people on the phone to talk to them. But, it's even better when we Skype because she gets way more excited about being able to see the person she is talking to. Her sister is only nine months old, so the other day when I was Skyping with them, she saw my face and got super excited. She can't talk to me on the phone, but seeing my face and smiling at me was her form of being able to "talk" to me. And on a plus side I got to see her crawl, so I was happy too. Thank you technology!

And just so you can see their faces too, you'll know why I love Skyping with these adorable girls.

Cute right?!

Love Lessons

I'm in that stage of life where I'm searching for the one I'm going to marry. And I've mentioned it before on how crazy it can be with the whole dating thing; it's frustrating. And sometimes it just gets really hard and I become fed up with the whole system. Then there are those times you get a kick in the butt reminding you of what you need to be doing. And I hate it. It's never fun when you have to be vulnerable and it can be hard to open up.

There's been an article going around that relates a devotional from Elder Holland about lessons of love and dating. Some of them make me think "yah, that's right!" where others are "I should be focusing more on that...whoops." It was another kick in the butt, but a good reminder at the same time. Here it is if you haven't seen it pop up on the book of face yet:

Feeling 22!

So...today is my little sister's birthday. She's 22 years old today. I don't know how she got to be that old, but it happened. I texted her this morning dedicating Taylor Swift's song as her theme song for the next year of her life. We all need a song to give us a boost right? Even though I have to be in the right mood to be able to listen to Taylor Swift, this song always brought a smile to my face when I was 22. It just feels cool to have a song about a phase of your life. Now its time for my little sister.
