Trevor!

Trevor has been asking me to update my blog and I haven't had much to write about so I thought I'd write about him :)
*Warning... cheesiness is in effect.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Trevor!! I love you!! You make so incredibly happy! You are seriously the best boyfriend in the world!! Thank you so much for all you do for me and thank you for always being here for me. :) You are a big part of my life now. Thank you for being so nice to me even when I don't deserve it. It's funny how we started talking one day and we haven't stopped since. Almost 8 months! Wow!!
Remember when....

  • At the Pine View Invitational you laid your head on my knee and then you wrestled and after I was leaving and you texted and called me looking for me and so I came back and we hung out at my house and held hands and we have been together ever since. :)
  • We went to the Temple together for the first time and we walked around and talked and we were a little nervous to hold each others hands and we ran across the street and held hands for "safety" hahaha.
  • On Valentine's Day when you and Jake decorated your house with candles and "cooked" Tina and I Pasta Factory. and how everyone was dressed up and I wasn't because I just had been at work!
  • We went to the Institute Sweetheart Dance. and I made you put your hair on the other side cause I liked it! (I am so mean.)
  • I came to your track meet and I look over and you, your coach, and all your teammates were staring at me. Awkward!
  • You came over for Easter and hung out with the family and we went for a walk and it was sprinkling and then when we got about a block away it started pouring rain and so we ran back to my house and it felt like we were in the movies! :)
  • We went to the movie Thor and when we got out it was also pouring rain and so we ran to the car and by the time we got in we were soaking wet and we just sat there and laughed!
  • Watching you at state with my dad. I was so incredibly proud of you! You are such an amazing athlete and you can do whatever you put your mind to and I love that.
  • All those times you came over and just talked to my dad the whole time!
  • At your Baptism and you made me speak at it! Ha no I'm grateful I was able to be a part of it :) How awesome you were to get baptized and the wonderful experience of it.
  • At the Summer Games watching you, Luke, and Garrett wrestle and and actually getting to sit with each other and hold hands and not be scared that we would get in trouble by coach. 
  • All the times you jumped on my bed to wake me up in the mornings :)
  • You gave me roses and a sweet card for my birthday :) I still have those roses. and when we went to Olive Garden for our birthday dinner and we told the waitress that we were "letting him play with the camera". hahahahha. 
  • The one time where we tried not to talk to each other for one whole day and we both texted each other at midnight. 
  • When I went to California for a little under two weeks and we were both going crazy not seeing each other. Okay it was mostly me. hahah
  • How we made a list for our AMAZING summer!
  • We always would go drive around in town and find cool places to go.
  • We always went thrifting and finding antique stores. :)
  • You'd come work out at the rec center just so we could still see each other while I was at work :)
  • All the times we went to Karaoke at Applebee's and for the last time you sang "Mandy" by Barry Manilow and you sang "oh Lacy, well you came and you gave with out taking" instead of "oh Mandy", and I teared up ha. 
  • We went to the county fair and you won me a pink fishy stuffed animal and I panicked hard core on the ride so we got off before it started (Sorry.. I still feel bad about that) and you were so sweet about it.
  • When we went shooting with my dad.
  • When I came up to Cedar and we pretty much just walked around the town the whole day and it was so fun! 
  • The second time I came up to Cedar with you and we went to church and we couldn't stop laughing (reverent I know) and it was super hard to say goodbye.
  • We always went (and still do) go to The Brick Oven! Yummm
  • How we always used my Starving Student Card and your Dixie Direct to get food.
  • Saying goodbye when you left for college. Yeah I know its only 45 minutes away but it was still so hard.
There are SOOOOOOOOOOO many more memories we've made, these are only a few. I know we will make many more too. I love you Trevor Thompson! You make me so happy! I'm so grateful for you!

Grateful.



   These past couple of days I have had such a great change of heart and new found love for the Gospel. I am so grateful for the Gospel. I am so grateful for the truth we have. I want to spread the message of the Gospel to others. I have felt so loved by my Savior and I'm so grateful for the atonement and for His atoning sacrifice and the knowledge that we can repent of our sins through the atonement.
    I have been trying to study my scriptures more and I can definitely testify of scripture power. They really help me resist of temptation and help me overcome trials i'm going through. I'm grateful for the scriptures and the principles they teach me. I do know that the Book of Mormon, The Bible, The Doctrine and Covenants, and The Pearl of Great Price are all true. Every word. 
   I love this Gospel. I love my Savior Jesus Christ. I love the scriptures. I love the knowledge that I can be with my family forever.
