i feel like my blog is behind

today i heard the prophets voice. i cried. i felt pure happiness and peace, and it was wonderful to be sitting next to my best friend who i will be spending forever with. i've had so many opportunities to grow and learn from the spirit, especially the past couple of weeks. my testimony of the savior Jesus Christ becomes stronger each day as i choose to live what i know is right. what an amazing thing. what a blessing. my world is incredibly happy and wonderful right now, and yet as there is opposition in all things, i have been experiencing great loss. many people around me have voiced opinions, and i know they care deeply about me. some people don't understand choices im making. thats ok. some may say im rushing things. im not. im not rushed at all. im happy. i hope that with time people will trust the decisions i make because they trust and love me. because the harsh words and disbelief provide no help to me. i know that as time passes and they see how truly happy i am they will know as i do how right this is. how exceptionally wonderful my decision is. how marrying dave dixon is the biggest and best decision i will make in this life. i feel at home.

twinners..but not

Its a weird thing when your sister who is 6 years younger than you, looks like your twin. So is that a compliment to her that she looks 6 years younger? Or a dis to me saying I look like I'm 13? Well, basically we both look like we are 15 or 16. Haily has transformed into a beautiful model. Seriously I am amazed at how quickly she grew up. Last year at this time she was probably 4 inches shorter and still young looking. Now boys are hitting on her. Not ok!! Weird moment-I took my sibs to 7 peaks, and Haily and I were standing in line. These two 16 year old boys came up and starting hitting on us. Now Haily just started giggling and acting like a 13 year old should (shocked that a boy noticed her) on the other hand, I was amazed that these boys thought I was young enough to be interested in them. Finally it came out that they thought we were twins. Well announcement: We are not twins. Althoough I have a bright and bubbly nature, I am 6 years older than her. Not that I mind people thinking I look like her, cuz lets face it, my sister is a babe. And she is amazingly talented. Too bad she got ALL the creative juices from my dad. :) I love her lots.
I bet when we are older we will think its cool to be twins....maybe we will be like Grandma Carolyn and Joyce. I hope we get to be so matchy matchy that even our pins, scarves, shoes, and bags are the exact same....Then again, I think I'm ok with us just looking like twins without dressing identical.
