We came across this ice castle driving on a small road in Midway, UT and turned around to see what it was! We paid $2 admission & walked through. It was so pretty and also so bright! (My eyes could hardly handle it.) BEWARE: You must sign a wavier if you dare to enter! :)

Miracles
For the last few days: I've been thinking about miracles & the love of Heavenly Father.
I come across them everyday, really. Sometimes I just stare at the beautiful Utah mountains and think what a miracle they are.
I was reading pass journal entries, from a couple years ago.. reading about when my Aunt Deanne had her heart attack. (oh, it was so hard for us, our family.) So many little miracles amidst trial. So many angels.
I've been listening to a song called "No" by Cherie Call.
I've been reading two blogs written by women who have just lost their sweet husbands, and I can plainly see their faith and that the Lord is buoying them up as they grieve.
I saw this facebook status today: "Isn't it incredible how sometimes things just fall into place?"
& I knew exactly what she meant because, I think that to myself often.
and a few days ago, I told Heavenly Father in prayer that I know he is a God of miracles. I don't think I've ever felt the power of bearing testimony to the Lord in prayer. Bearing testimony of his power and infinite love and his plan for all of us, even if it's sometimes not easy.
(deep breath)
God listens to our prayers, he wants us to converse with him, and he loves us so much.

2005
I have started a (big) project. This project requires me to gladly go through all of my digital photos (2004-2010). I am having so much fun reminising and remembering so many beautiful and/or hilarious moments. I plan on sharing my favorites but for now, this one:
These photos were taken while walking around downtown Seaside, Oregon. I was 17 and with my family on our yearly vacation to the coast. I saw this cute woman, with her adorable yellow hat and had to take a picture of her.
p.s. I'm organizing and cleaning out my hard-drive, and I have already deleted over 2,000 photos. (I'm only half way through 05..) Wish me luck!
