Ephraim! Through and Through

I have just been in Ephraim Utah!! My first session of Ephraim was amazing! I had amazing girls and wonderful guys! I had two amazing Co Counselors and a wonderful roommate. I had the opportunity to be on Variety Show, so I got to pick acts and help put on the amazing show! One of the best acts we had was a bomb.com Acappella group of 5 guys and they rocked the house! This week was amazing! And I had some amazing experiences and loved my kids so much! I love growing in the gospel and everyday I am more and more thankful to be a Member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

This is Sydney and I love her! She is from Cedar City, and is AMAZING! We loved having late night chats and sharing great experiences about our kids. She is awesome, I love her!

Here are some of my KIDS!

Thatcher Session 1 Holla!

Hey All So I just finished my SECOND session! So did anyone know how small Thatcher, AZ was? Because I did not! The wonderful Campus of Eastern Arizona and all of its facilities is at least 2 minutes apart from each other, 5 minutes maybe in a hurricane.. But seriously this campus was tiny, but almost a diamond in the rough because it was perfect for EFY! This session was fantastic, it was sad not having my first kids, but I loved my new kids all the same. What i love in particular is that they were all completely different, and by the end they were great friends. I know my sessions are only going to get better and better! Watch out Ephraim, because Counselor Kim is coming to town! :)



SO! A New Week= New Kids + New Co Co's!!
This is Alan
This is Jennifer! I love them both! They are both RM's and full of knowledge and greatness! They taught me so much and were so dang AWESOME!
Alan and I loved taking pictures together!
We met in Flagstaff, and so duh, of course we were STOKED to be Co Co's!
When Alan found out we were Co's He came and jumped on me! Like full on while i was in my sunday clothes! We knew this week would be full of greatness! And Jen was our cherry to complete us! :)

Let us commence with The Banner and Cheer off! This is the beginning of our flag, done by lovely Red head Lauren, Brown hair Niki and Small Adorable Jeremiah!
This was the Finished Project! and YES we won the Banner Competition! CHOOSE LIBERTY forever strong. I think we had a handicap due to 4th of July weekend but we will take it!

Oh.. Boy...


Let me introduce Tallan to some of you who may not know of him. He is basically AMAZING, in every way possible. One of the Hardest things for me while being at EFY has being away from this fella. We met in March and have been dating for a couple months now. He is awesome and hilarious, and handsome, and a complete goof just like me. :) He makes me Happy!

And So it BEGINS! Flagstaff Session 2


Hey all! Sorry I havent been able to post! EFY has kept me non-stop busy! But Here are a few photos from my first session! It was in Flagstaff, AZ the 22-27 of June. I am so grateful to be able to be a tool in the Lords hands and help teach his youth! This experience has just started but I already feel like I have grown so much! Hope you all enjoy! :)
This is Me and my awesome first CoCo ( Co Counselor) Josh, Betterly known as Shua! But he was an amazing first CoCo! He has such an awesome knowledge of the gospel and insanely excited about everything all the time, just like me! You can imagine how crazy our kids were with two insanely peppy counselors! He was basically the Bomb.com! Thanks again Josh for everything you taught me! You are fantastic! :)

Here is a Picture of me and Rochelle, Kira, Jasmine, and Adam, I love these kids! I can't remember what we were going to do but we all love pictures!

Here is me and Kierstie! I LOVE HER! We somehow magically got to be roommates for my first week! She basically showed me the ropes and was the best roomie ever! Well besides the fact that she sleep talks every night! Also she like sleep, stood up in her bed one night! It was hilarious!! I love her, and I always loved cleaning our room, randomly at midnight! I am nuts!
