New Mexico Albuquerque Mission

For those of you who don't know I served a mission in Albuquerque, New Mexico from April 2004 to November 2005. That was a few years ago, but here are some pictures of me and some companions and people that we taught. It was a wonderful experience, especially serving on the Navajo Indian Reservation in Crownpoint. I loved serving the Lord and getting to know and learn from wonderful people.

Summer in Rexburg

Many people lovingly refer to Rexburg as "ICEburg" because it is so cold and windy here, especially this past winter. When it snows in May, and more than once, you begin to think that Rexburg has no other seasons besides "cold." But, yesterday it was somewhat decent weather and me and some friends went to a beautiful waterfall place called Monkey Rock. It was really cold still, but we had a lot of fun. I love the water and since Idaho is far from the ocean, I will take any aquatic spots that come along. Here's a glimpse of what it looks like.

Graduation ~ April 2008

Well, after many years of college off and on I have finally graduated with my Bachelor's in Psychology from BYU-Idaho in Rexburg. Graduation was great, although because of the weather, not many family members were able to attend. But, it was a beautiful ceremony and I was so greatful to finally be finished! (at least with my Bachelors) For those of you who don't know, I am attending Graduate School at Idaho State University in the fall to get my counseling license. I am excited for a new town, a new school, and a new experience. Although I am a little nervous about it, I am excited to be able to do more in my career. I want to eventually open my own youth center and work with children and teens.
