HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENN!

I can't believe that my baby sister is 14 and starting high school!! Here are 14 things I love about my Jenn!

1. She will just say and do the most random things that are SO FUNNY. I literally can't get through a conversation with this girl without laughing hysterically at least once. We talk a lot, so needless to say she keeps my life interesting!


2. She has such a great sense of style, something that I on the other hand was not blessed with. She helps me find cute outfits and will never hesitate to give me some constructive fashion criticism. If I had a dime for every time she's given me her judgment face followed by the classic "WHAT are you WEARING?!" I would have a lot of dimes...

3. She is a wonderful singer! I really don't think she realizes how good she is! I love that she's a little budding soprano, because the soprano section's totally where it's at! I'm not the least bit biased!

4. When Jenn is passionate about something she WORKS at it! She won't give up until the job is done! Whether it's tackling a song, perfecting an audition, or "beautifying" her room with 500 pictures of Justin Bieber, she works hard and won't give up!

5. She gives the best hugs. We also love to cuddle. We're always bed buddies when we go on family vacations.

6. We bring out each other's weird sides. I don't know what it is, but we do the weirdest things when we're together. Some of my personal favorites include: Googling how to annoy our sisters and using techniques such as: mooing every time they say our names, following them around the house, and trying to swim through the carpet. We've also: tied each other up, skyped each other from different parts of the house, made videos for people, and the list could just keep going and going...

7. She takes abuse well. Poor Jennifer always seems to be the one everyone taunts! Whether it's my friends (in particular Miss Sydney Gaver), her friends, little kid her family even, and so on, they all seem to find Jenn as an easy target. I don't know what it is about her but she takes it with a grain of salt. No worries Jenn, it's all out of love... most of the time.

Here she's being abused by McKenna Buhler. LOVE IT.


8. She is so so cute with little kids! They all just love her! It's the sweetest thing! I know she's going to make a great mom some day!

9. She is so beautiful! She is just gorgeous and has the prettiest smile! 
10. She's just so much fun to be with! Like, you can't be with Jenn and not have fun! She's always smiling (except for when she's in a bad mood, but ya know, it happens to the best of us), and ALWAYS makes me laugh!

11. We love all of the same T.V. shows, except for the weird ones on Disney Channel that she watches, but anyways we have all sorts of marathons and it's so fun! She even got me to watch half of Camp Rock once!

12. She's an absolutely amazing friend! Jenn and I are very different people, but we get along so well! She's truly one of my best friends! She's always there for me when I need to talk, and she's just so great! 

13. She has come to every single one of my performances. She has literally never missed a single one! I'm sure they can get pretty boring and I just love that she's always there for me! I can't wait to see her performances whenever I'm home next year!!

14. She's the best sister I could have ever wanted! I love you SO much Jenn and I hope you have an absolutely amazing birthday!

My Journey to Self-Confidence

This is a picture of me almost exactly three years ago: And this is a picture of me now: Now, you might be thinking this is one of those stories that you see in Weight Watchers ads on T.V. endorsing a diet. I promise it's not. This journey was about so much more than a number on a scale. It was about working towards being able to recognize my divine nature as a daughter of God. I'll start at the beginning. When I started my freshman year at BYU, my self-confidence was at an all time low. I would try on about five outfits every morning, look in the mirror, and then immediately change. My low self-esteem was reflected in the way I talked to people, the way I dressed, and just the overall way that I carried myself. I compared myself to everyone else around me and was constantly tearing myself down. My lack of self-esteem seemed so obvious, yet it seemed like no one truly understood how I felt. I knew I needed to make some changes, but I just didn't know how. Af...

A Slight Transformation

So I'm sitting here procrastinating homework, the usual, I really need a spring break, but anyhow, I was looking through some pictures and I found this. This is a picture of my sisters and I last Christmas break (Dec 2011) And this is a picture of me and my sisters from this past Christmas break one year later (Dec 2012): A lot is the same between these two pictures. We're the same four sisters. Other than Abby and I swapping places we're standing in the exact same order. Both were taken at my grandparents' house in Virginia while I was on break from BYU. And these three girls are still my three dearest friends in the world. At the same time, a lot has changed. We've grown a little bit, both as people and in height (well except for me). Amy got accepted to BYU (YES!), Abby started middle school, Jenn's become a little singing star! I decided what to do with my life and began pursuing a degree in Elementary Education. The biggest change between these pict...

London Living

I've learned a few things in the two days since I left the U.S. First of all, flying internationally is AWESOME. Going through customs, not so awesome but I'll get there. You're greeted at your seat by a pillow and blanket, you get served Indian food for dinner, and there's tons of T.V. shows and movies to watch. I didn't sleep much, and thus was a bit disoriented when we landed at 7 am London time, while my body was on Virginia time where it was the middle of the night. I completely forgot that my dad had told me that before you go through passport control, there's a landing form you have to fill out. When my half asleep half awake self handed the border patrol officer my passport I was met with a very dirty glare as he angrily asked where my landing form was. He handed me one after I explained that I had forgotten to grab one, but not without a bit of eye rolling. I frantically filled it out and made it through customs in one piece after being questioned about...
