Favorite Memories the beginning

Kelsey did this on her blog and I loved seeing her favorite memories so I thought I'd do it on mine too. As I think of more I'll post more.

• When I realized I could be friends with my parents as well as their child
  
• When Kelsey told me they were naming Jemma after me
  
• When Kelsey called to say she wanted me at the hospital when the twins were born (even though it was really early in the morning)
  
• When Amy’s Dad got to the hospital after that horrible first night and day in the ER/ICU
  
• When Michael gave me the blessing that said Erin was with me while Amy was in the ICU that first night
  
• When Alex gave Amy the blessing that finally said she would survive
  
• Daddy/Daughter dates when I was little
  
• Every time I taught the Thumper lesson for FHE when I was young ( I thought I was so good)
  
• Whenever I’d go to Kelsey’s and her kids would yell, “Kacky!”
  
• When I realize I could tell Amy and Kelsey anything and everything and realized they’d still be my best friends
  
• When Ben finally showed up at the airport to get Kelsey and the kids and I after the trip from Hell.
  
• Making and (tasting) stuffing with Mom and Beth every Thanksgiving
  
• When I prayed about the Book of Mormon like I’d always been told to and got the clear impression in my mind that said “You already know”
  
• Playing with my siblings and cousins at Grandpa and Grandma Palmers bar downstairs (as long as I didn’t look at the scary coconut faces)
  
• Getting a self-serve ice cream cone with Grandpa Harper, he said I hadn’t put on enough ice cream and he piled it on so high I could barely hold it upright
  
• When Amy got engaged to Jared
  
• When I understood Jared was an amazing man who would be good to and for Amy and love her so much and whenever he tells me there is a lucky man out there for me some day
  
• Making the movie in response to Brian and family’s Christmas broadcast. We were pretty dang good if I do say so myself and I do

My Birthday

Thanks to all my friends and family who made my birthday amazing. Here are some pictures of my haul.

This is a picture that I colored from the coloring book I got from Carrie, Elizabeth and Catherine. They are amazing people and I love them all.

I got a gift certificate a while ago from a friend so Amy and I got pedicures on my lunch hour...see my cute flowers.

I got lots of cute stuff but the more important part was I felt loved and cared for my my friends and family.
( I promise to use the gift cards well!)

The tray is from when Amy brought me breakfast in bed, great way to start the day!

Thanks again to everyone who made my birthday amazing with their good wishes!!

Rearrangement

I got a little bored today and decided to rearrange my room. I'll only be here another 2 months but still it just felt like that kind of day. I probably get it from my Mom, she used to want to change up the living room occosionally. It would make make more impact I'm sure if I had posted better pics of how my room looked before but here goes.

This is teh view from the end of the bed looking out the door. My entertaiment center on the left with my birthday present from my Mom (see I didn't open it yet, I promise to be good). My "printer stand" on the right. It's made up of a tote and a Pampered Chef box, classy I know.

This is looking at the bed I put it in the far corner of the room and angled it, I think it makes the room look bigger.

This is the window my bed used to be under, now that wall has a side table my dresser and the cute chair I got from my Grandma.
