He Moves Mountains in Me
He is such a great example to me and to all of us. I know that I have a Savior that Love's me and came to the earth to Atone for my sins. I know that He has not only suffered for my sins but went through every thing that I feel, my bad days and my good day's, My sorrow and my Joy, my sadness and my happiness. I am So thankful that Christ went through the Atonement so that I can return to him some day. I know that if I keep trying to do my Best that He will make up the difference.

What a Week
Well, since I posted last I started to write in a real journal every night so I haven't really thought about my blog. I am Feeling kind of down for it seems no reason at all, (If you don't count Mom, Dad, and Jed all Stressed for different reasons, and not getting to do what you are supposed to do because you are needed somewhere else). I have had a few days this week that I haven't felt like I belong at places. I don't really have any friends that are my age in my ward and so I don't really have someone to talk to at church and it seems that in school that I am just some weird kid that shouldn't be at college or a 10-12th grade seminary class.
On Sunday at Mission Prep (it was also Super-bowl Sunday) the Lyles made a great dinner for after we brook our fast after Mission prep and we called ourselves the "Anti-Super-Bowl- Groupies";-) that was fun.
I got to go on a horse back ride this morning and also Saturday. It is so fun to go out in the hills bareback on you horse. I went to try to see the Sunrise this morning but missed it by about 2 minutesL
One of my favorite songs is called "Names" it is on my playlist if you want to listen, It is all about the Names that Jesus Christ is called by That I really love.

Civil Rights Day
Today is Civil Rights Day, 2009. This morning we read most of a book – "I have a Dream" about Martian Luther King Jr. I learned that Martian Luther King Jr. was part of getting busses in the south not segregated. I also learned that he went to school in the North and was one of 6 blacks in the school.
I know that I haven't posted since before Christmas so I will catch up on life, I got a new saddle form my Dad for Christmas and I love it. We also got a Wii as a family and that was/is fun, I started another semester at school and am now taking 12 Collage credits at Dixie State.
I guess that's it for now.

It’s almost the Day before the Night before Christmas!
So how long is it going to take to write a post? I just deleted one that I have been working on since the beginning of December and it is starting to bug me.
I really love to read, I have always loved to read anything that had a good story line in it (It's a plus if they happen to have horses as well) I just finished a book called "Goose Girl" by Shannon Hale, It was a really good book and I highly recommend it. It is a fun filled Fantasy that includes Adventure, Friendship, Romance, and Hero's, Wind, and Horses, Princes and Princesses, and Much More!
There isn't really much going on other than that, I got my Personal Progress the week after Thanksgiving, Finished Finales, and got excited for Christmas.
We always go to do the Live Nativity at Tuachan every year on the Monday night before Christmas. This year the nativity got canceled and so I am not thereL.
Well I guess that I better get going.

Where has the month gone again!!!
I finished my Personal Progress and am having my night to receive it next Sunday. My Projects for Personal Progress included: Reading the book of Mormon, Doing Secret Grandma's (Where you leave anonymous gifts on you adopted Grandma's porch), Going to spend ten days in Peru doing humanitarian projects over thanksgiving last year, going to learn about the 7 habits of Highly Effective Teens with my Mom, Creating this Blog, volunteering for the Marathon, and Sewing a Quilt for Primary Children's Medical Center.
In Seminary we have been learning about the second coming and all the signs and stuff like that, I am excited for it to come and I hope that it comes quickly. We have seen all of the signs but one and that is the Gospel being opened to the entire world. I hope and pray that that will happen soon. Brother Troyer, Who is my Seminary Teacher says that there is 2 ways that the savior can come and have the entire world know that he is here and that is, 1) having all of the continents come together as one, and 2) having no darkness, Sun, Moon or Stars, because he is the light that the sun gets light from. I really hope that it is the second way and that I can see the from above when we are lifted up.

All most done!!!
this week I got to go and help push cows down the mountain with my friend Carol and some neighbors, It was a ton of fun, and even though it was freezing cold (We where in snow the whole time coming from a place where it is still 85 in the afternoons)it was fun. I rode my Beautiful horse Dash (but I think he thought that I was crazy to take him up there).
This week was midterm grades and also UEA weekend so we went to Colorado with my grandparents for some fun. We spent a day at the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park and almost had it all to ourselves, Then we spent a day in Denver and the last day we went to a museum and on a bike ride in Fruta. It was really fun.
Now for the reason that I got to posting, I am like done with my personal progress, (All I need to do is make it to Salt lake to deliver a Quilt to the Primary children's hospital and Write me testimony in the back of the book)so i thought that I would work on posting the last journal entries. so here you go:
Individual worth #3
“Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God” (D&C 18:10)
We all have great worth in the sight of God, We are all his children. As I noticed qualities in other people, I came to appreciate qualities that Heavenly father has given me as well as the Qualities that I saw in others. I know that My Heavenly Father lives and that there is so much white in our lives but so little black, Sometimes it is easier to see the Black in others even though there is still a whole bunch more white that we should see. I am grateful for the love that heavenly father has for me that he would send his only begotten son to die that we could live.
Individual worth # 4
I participated in the 2008 Performance Evaluations for the Utah Music Teachers Association. I played “Waltz in Eb” By Muzio Clementi. I got a Superior and was able to play with my Sister, Brinley at another recital later that night. My self-worth extended in getting a good rating and being able to play. I know that we all have worth in the sight of God but sometimes we have to remind ourselves that we have Self-Worth as well and that we can do hard things.
Hope you all have a great day.
