MY BRACES ARE GONE!

Before...

AFTER!

I am pretty again!
& I finally got my Peanut Butter Burger from the bar in Enterprise-- to celebrate.
If you are unaware of the "Birthday Bar Story," you can find it here.

It was super yummy!


I definitely recommend purchasing a Peanut Butter Burger from Kelly's at least once in your lifetime. It was worth the $9 per burger just for the experience. 

However, next time I have a burger, I will be perfectly content with putting peanut butter on it myself instead of paying someone to do it...

My daddy decided to put peanut butter on my nose before he took the picture... 

Thanks papa. :) ♥

Elder Mathias

He's gone...

Remember Adam?

We went on a hike together on May 15th..
It was our last little Hoo-Rah!

We hiked up Adam's canyon. Ironic right?

His farewell was on May 27th & I went to it alone because I am so awesome like that.

Actually, it's because I thought I would have friends there
& I did, but most of them ended up going to another farewell right after Adam's so I got to make friends at the Luncheon afterwards.

It was fine.
I like making friends..

 Luckily, a few of my acquaintances decided to stay for Adam's luncheon so that I didn't have to be all alone- awkwardly.

I have met his family before and they were very kind and welcoming.
His mom was so sweet to thank me multiple times for coming..

We took this picture as I was saying goodbye to him..

It was taken before I got sad..

I was only sad for a second because I don't know where I will be when he gets home!

I could be married... OR I might be on MY MISSION!
I'd like to be on my mission.

Although I am sad to see my friend leave,
I am so happy for Adam.

He is such an amazing young man and I am so grateful for the time that I was able to spend with him.
I learned so much from him.

I am also grateful for my relationship with him.
We were smart and kept things simple by staying friends--& by only being friends.
That has made him leaving so much easier for us both!
He is going to be such an amazing missionary


The people of Ukraine are so lucky to have him serving there for the next 2 years.

Adam's mom, Kelli, has started a blog for him if one of the three people who read my blog would like to hear how he's doing, even though you probably don't know him! haha. :)

I saw Venus!

There was a Venus Transit today...

It was probably the coolest thing that I have seen in a long time.

I am seriously turning into the biggest Physics nerd
           & things like this make me SO happy...


Here is a picture of the view from the Observatory. 
Logan is beautiful.

A cool picture of Holden looking through the telescope.

Holden, Christian and I with our cool "safe sun viewing glasses!"
I was so fascinated by the whole thing...
& I probably could have stayed up there all night long.

Marry You...

Dearest Future Husband,

Watch this:


I WILL SAY YES TO YOU.

Think about it.

This video LITERALLY made me cry and it continues to bring a tear or two to my eye 
each and every time that I watch it.

Just imagine the happiness.

I can't wait to meet you...

Actually I can.

I just can't wait until you decide to Lip-Dub propose to me.

:)

I love you.

xoxo,

♥- Karlie
