Jessica, Drew and I on Wednesdays try to go to the temple or to be a volunteer at the state mental hospital. This time we decided to go to the Timpanogos temple but on this lucky day it was closed for maintenance. We were very lucky to make it to the Provo temple instead though.

Thanksgiving Break
Going home for Thanksgiving Break was fabulous! It was so good to see everyone again and do everyone and their dogs hair! We also got to go to the beach which was amazing. The weather was perfect! On Thanksgiving day we played games. I taught everyone how to play werewolves and jungle speed, If any of you have not played them you definitely should.

The Unexpected
When life is feeling content and everything is going just as smoothly as I would like it an unexpected turn takes place. A turn that changes my outlook on a day. Decides for me what matters the most, where I want to spend my time, what I say or even think about. When these turns take place it makes me readjust my life, but I think to myself, "Do you really want to change how smoothly things are going when you never know if this unexpected turn is going to stay or be pulled out of your life at any moment?"
Then I began to think about if we just worry about what might happen then there is a strong possibility that nothing will ever happen in your life, or you might miss an amazing opportunity. I came to a conclusion to just take life little at a time and grab on to everything that comes at me dont miss an chance to do anything.
I will gain something each time I accept an opportunity whether it is to gain a better understanding about something, what I will do better next time or to make me stronger as a person. Or maybe it is so much as learning a new activity that I have accomplished. When I accomplish something it helps me to feel a sense of higher self esteem or confidence that I can get somewhere.
"From every experience you learn something new so might as well gain as much knowledge as possible, right?"
