Life is good

Its been a while since I last blogged.
Since this is about my journey, I will tell you that life is good so I will tell you a little bit about whats been happening.

I just moved to Central Utah to work on myself, enjoy the mountains and outdoor activites before I move back up North. Its really tough for me being in a small town without a lot of freinds and not having a job where I can get my social time in.
I said that I was going to take this summer to build my confidence back up after all the drama that took place in St George, and I have become more content with myself.
I took up cooking and baking, which is something I have never enjoyed or done a lot of. Its so rewarding when I throw together a dinner from scratch or bake a sheet of cookies and they come out tasting wonderful and others agree.  I also started making jewelry with my natural stones for people I love and to sell once I have enough made. I also took time developing my art by drawing.
I didnt go to church here except for the first week I moved down and just last week, its not that I do not want to go... I just stay up to late working on the things I have talked about above and end up sleeping in. I will say that I notice a HUGE difference in my week when I do ro do not go to church and thats why I decided that I cannot miss out on it anymore. Our meetings at church are so uplifting and I know that when I attend I come away with a goal of wanting to be better the coming week, and not having those spiritual goals tends to make the week a little tough.
I think we are so blessed to be a part of this gospel. How amazing is it that we can go to church and by partaking of the sacrament we renew our baptizimal covenants and come away knowing all the things we have struggled with during the week are washed away once again.
I am so blessed to have this summer to work on myself and spend my time connecting with my family. My family means everything to me and the time I spent living n St George and being so far away has made me appreciate and love them so much more than I have before.... and this is why I am moving up North this summer instead of going back down to St George. It will be great to live back up there with two of my brothers and all of my extended family.
I want to share my expereince of how I knew I was going to serve a mission, so I will post about that in the near future.
