Sunset yoga and kayaks

I had the best weekend. My mom and I decided to go spend a couple of nights at the Boat Club, and it was 100% worth it. We spent so much time floating around in kayaks (I'm super sore from rowing), catching and eating fish, and playing Scattergories. On the second night, a thunderstorm cleared and left behind a gorgeous sunset... which of course led to my mom, my aunt, and me having a (completely dorky) sunset yoga photoshoot.

I am so thankful for the time I was able to spend with my grandparents, aunt, and momma. I have such an amazing family, and the world is so beautiful. I'm happy.

I don't know

Honestly, I've been struggling.
YSA has been such a lonely experience for me... I've felt unwanted and unnoticed.
I'm starting to question my choices about school... Do I actually want to take another year off? Do I want to go into a different program?
I thought maybe this was all because I'm supposed to go on a mission... After praying and going into General Conference with the question in mind, the answer I got was a no.
I feel very stuck. But I KNOW God has a plan for me, and I know that I have a purpose. I just have no idea what it is. I'm going to keep praying to and trusting in Him, and working towards happiness.

My best friend

My mom is the greatest blessing in my life. I can't imagine how hard it must be for her to raise two teenagers on her own while juggling work and church callings. She is so brave and so caring. I am so grateful to be able to joke around with her and tell her everything. There is so much trust and love in my relationship with my momma... I don't know what I would do without her!
Happy Mother's Day. <3

Filling in (some of) the gap

Well, I haven't posted in a while. I really want to try to get into blogging again, but I feel so strange starting with a huge gap in time on my blog! It feels like I should have mentioned that dating in YSA is weird but very fun. It feels like I should have talked about how nannying can either be amazing or dreadful. So much more is missing!

So, here are some photos from a couple of happy times since I last posted... Just so that I can feel a little less weird about coming back.
