warning...long and journally

well as most of you know I am taking anatomy this year and boy oh boy what a tough class. I knew I was gonna be in for a ride, but I didn't quite know it was goin to be this hard. Anyway...today we learned about the muscles of the face, and I got to see a dead persons face and let me tell you it was a pretty freaky sight. I wont go into detail but the cadaver still had freaking eyelashes, SOOOO INSANE! I really felt so queezy in class, but slowly gained composure. This all really has nothing to do with what I want to say, but I was thinking today about how many different body parts and veins and arteries we have and how each of them has a different function and I was blown away at the fact that God created this. He is a genius really. I dont know if I could ever make a body as crazy as ours. Thinking about just walking up the stairs takes so much coordination, but our body is trained in doing it so its not a struggle anymore, and our brains have to work at light speed to tell each muscle what it needs to do. It really is fascinating. Seeing someone elses body and insides makes me want to keep mine clean. Its so important to keep our bodies healthy! Not only is it awesome because we feel healthier but it makes our spirit healthier. Our physical health is inseparably connected to our spiritual health. Sorry for getting all cheesy, but I have been wanting to write this down for so long and where better than a blog right? Anyway, that was just my thought for today. I sometimes just wonder why I feel worthless some days and now that I think about it, it probably has something to do with the things I am putting into my body. All I ever eat is crap, and it probably does hurt my spirit in a way. I don't know maybe I could be wrong, but those are just my thoughts. :)
PS. I am convinced chocolate and candy can be good for the soul, doesnt hurt to have a lil sweetness every once and a while :)

so neat...


...well last week my mom asked me if I wanted to go to Alix's 6th grade valentines dance at the elementary school and of course I said yes! I remember doin all the dances and stuff and it was so much fun! I couldn't wait to see what they did different and how awkward I must have looked dancin' with the boys. When we got there I just started laughing. The kids looked sooooo awkward, and they never looked at each other, they were dancin' and lookin around, probably at everyone watching them, giggling, like I was haha. But then I saw Alix, she looked gorgeous, really, and I am so mad I didnt bring my camera to show you guys how stunning she looked. She straightened her hair and did some soft curls in it, it really brought tears to my eyes. I was so scared that she wasn't going to get asked to dance with one of the boys cuz sometimes she can be a lil awkward but who isn't at that age? She got asked to every single dance. And when it was time for her to dance with my dad, she came running out so excited, to find out he wasn't there, again bringing tears to my eyes. But....I caught another lil priceless moment that I probably will never forget. Tristin, my nephew, came running out and since neither one of his parents were there he asked his Grandma Arden to dance. What a sweet kid!!! I almost had tears fall down my cheek, but I managed to capture a picture of this cute moment :) oh and they did some line dances, and I got in there and danced haha right by Alix. It was so fun! haha (sorry I dont write much about myself)

i thought this was funny

so one day I left my computer in the family room and I was gone all day, so when I got home I immediately looked at my computer to see if anyone had been using it. Kobie and Alix usually get their hands on it if I leave it somewhere so I thought I would check and see what they had been up to. Kobie loves to take funny pictures on photo booth, so I checked there first, lo and behold I found a lil treasure. I about died when I saw this. please enjoy!

first things first...

...I would like to say that this blog is probably going to be more like a journal than anything. Probably wont be very interesting to read, but feel free. :)
