a new keychain.

what else could this possibly be about other than my sweet favorite little brother.. of course i couldn't be more excited and happy for his decision to serve the Lord and serve a two year mission in Texas Fort Worth- but at the same time i have been having a hard time knowing I won't see/speak to him for two years- well good thing our good friends the Petersen's are moving to Dallas and good thing they are huge BYU football fans because i already invited jason and i to come stay with them next october 16th for the TCU v. BYU football game! and maybe ill run into elder wagner... on another note..a couple years ago if zachy would have been leaving i think it would have been a smidge easier- but after having him over multiple times a week this year and having him live so close we were able to become much closer and well ya.. it doesn't help that i cry easily.

i love my new keychain esp when people ask about it... hey family let me know if anyone else wants to add one to their key ring!!

messy house

4 finals and one paper left. then this crazy life will be over temporarily. i hope i get into the nursing program for fall then it will have made this all worth it :). i miss my husband he is gone for the weekend visiting his sis and cute nieces in kansas city! i am so jealous. and i am lonely. I get very sad thinking about my little brother leaving on his mission but i am so excited for him. I sure hope the sharks beat the avs in two more games. I love my hubs so much and am realizing just how much he does for me. The house became a disaster since he left and its only been one day. i sure make a mess and am cleaning it up tonight. thanks hubs i love you even thought you probably won't read this. xoxo (ps we bought a car and dad pickett is driving it to utah tomorrow and i bought a new cd to listen to in it (justin bieber!)!!!)
pss this post is so random but its whats on my mind.

MIA...

sorry i've been MIA for a long time. school is getting CRAZY esp. with finals coming up. but we bought a car today.. we have had one car since the big accident in september and have been carefully looking and finally found one we could pay for (and have no payments) and is decent to get us through our school years. an '04 honda civic. 4 door- don't worry gotta fit some car seats in someday hehe! well i mainly wanted to blog about my sister. I can't stop thinking of her and the amazing sister,mother,daughter,wife and best friend she is. Sometimes not so fun things happen to really amazing people. I don't think i could handle her trials but she is so strong and can take on anything. I have always looked up to her and know that in times of trials her Heavenly Father and her family will always be right by her side. i wish i could drive my new car to her house right now and hug her and spend time with her and cry with her, it makes me sad that people can be so mean but this will pass and we will all have learned something from it! You have a beautiful family and a sweet husband and a wonderful life. i love you sissy.

(sorry its so cheesy but so true )
