Well, just so everyone knows I am really bad at updating my silly little blog but I will try better.
I guess the newest thing in my life right now is a boy:) His name is Benjamin Allred and he is awesome. We met in our ward before it split and we have been going on dates for about three months now, but we just decided to start being and item last week and it is a lot of fun.
Ben is a math major and he wants to torment high school students for the rest of his life! He is very sweet and kind and he treats me like a queen. It is very fun and very new, and I like it:)
That is the newest thing in my life right now. I thought I would update whoever reads this sorry little blog and right now it looks like Mallory is one.
Would everyone, even if you don't know her, keep her in your prayers. She is struggling from a pretty intense cancer right now and she could use all the help she can get.
I love you all!!!

Finally! A Blog!
Well, after many people trying to get me to start a blog... here it is!
I started one a while ago but I think that blog spot kicked me off because I never updated it.
Where to start... hmmm...
Well I finished school a year ago in December and I am now working at Logan Regional Hospital in the operating room. My official title is Certified Surgical Technologist but people who work at the hospital know that we affectionately call ourselves "scrubs". Now I know that sounds weird and almost negative but it is one of the coolest jobs ever! My day consists of, as my mom says, "reading the surgeon's mind". And that is not far from the truth. I get there in the morning, find out what surgeries I am going to assist in that day and set up for the first one. I help to get the surgery equipment up and ready and make sure that I have everything the surgeon might need. I do my surgical hand scrub, gown up and set up my surgical table for the surgery. I then assist the doctor in performing the surgery by handing him the instruments, sticking my hands where they are needed and anticipating (the best I can) what the surgeon needs. I am still learning and am not nearly as good at anticipating as some of my co-workers, but I have fun and learn many new things every day.
Apart from work I am accompanying the Logan Institute choir and I love it. We are preparing to go to a CES Broadcast by Elder Ballard to sing and I am excited. We are singing "Our Savior's Love" and "True to the Faith". Two very awesome and wonderful songs.
I am having fun with friends up here and they just changed the single adult program up here in Logan where they made single adult stakes OUTSIDE of a university setting. I have to say that I like it. Many people are having a hard time with it but I think it is a very good thing. One of my friends is having a hard time because she is older and she doesn't like being in a ward where there are a lot of younger people. But younger people bring something into us older people's lives. Something that we seem to lose. Enthusiasm for life! They are so excited for what is coming in their lives and I think that the older ones have had so much disappointment that they put up a wall where it is hard for people let alone themselves to breach. I love being with the people that are just starting in life and I love to be around their enthusiasm.
I hope all is well with who ever is reading this boring blog, but I hope that my blogs will be more fun in the future. :)
TTFN!
