This is the Christus on Temple Square. I believe this was the trip when Mac took me (and a group of friends) to the Spring 2008 Conference. It could be the Fall 2007, though. We went both times. Anyway, I loved both trips. The fall trip I think I talked to Mac the ENTIRE time...poor kid. It was like 5:AM, though, and someone needed to keep him awake. If it was the Spring trip, it wasn't SO early because we got tickets in advance, but I still probably talked Mac's ear off. :D I'm good at that. What I remember MOST about this trip is how stongly I felt the spirit when the First Presidency walked into the Conference Center. Then we were able to sustain the new Presidency and President Monson. I don't know that I'll EVER forget how sure I felt (for the first time) that President Monson is truly called of God, and that he is more than able to fill the hole left by our beloved President Hinckley. I love these men!! In the scriptures it says there is nothing more beautiful than a virtuous woman, and I believe that on that same note, there is nothing more beautiful (for lack of a more manly word) than a man who TRULY honors his priesthood. Someday we are going to have to go to Conference again. Maybe we should set that as one of our family goals. There is such a great spirit there!! :D Anyway, that's my photo tag/blog. Thanks for that opportunity!! :D

I don't really have six people to tag, so I'm tagging Laura (again :D), and Whitney. :D

Hmmm...

So I promised Whitney I would post before I left for Connecticut, but things got a little VERY crazy last week, and it didn't happen. Therefore, this is my post, and it's WAY FOREVER late, but it's a post none the less. So! Life is going well for the most part. I'm still a wuss and a crybaby as usual, but I'm oh so very blessed! School is going well. Church is a life saver. Family is wonderful, but still too far away. Mac is amazing, and also too far away. Friends are fun. Work is work. Over all, life is good! :D I am once again counting down the days until I get to see Mac again...which by the way is in 13 DAYS, 21 HOURS, 6 MINUTES and a rapidly decreasing number of SECONDS. :D EXCITING!! Oh yeah! And I realized I don't even really have my Senior Picture on here...so I'm going to work on that. :D I have a face shot, cropped version of it. :D



So there is one. The rest will come...maybe.... :D

1 Day, 18 Hours, and 30 Minutes!!

But who's counting, right??






Hahahaha!! :D

Christmas at the Byington Home!!

Now all we're missing is FAMILY!! I love you guys.

Eight Days!!

Well, the countdown has restarted, but this time it is MUCH shorter!! :D So...EIGHT DAYS until Mac Comes home for Christmas Break!! Luckily, my last final this semester ends at the same time Mac lands in Salt Lake, so no more stress and lots of fun all at once!! :D Yay!! Now if only my family could come home to visit again, and this time they should bring Melissa and her family too. :D I love you all!! :D

Two Days!!

Only two more days until Mac comes home for Thanksgiving Break!! Yay!! YAY!!

Some family is starting to arrive with only three days to Thanksgiving!!

Sadly, my phone camera is not working very well, so these pictures are not all that great. :( But that's okay because I'm just excited some of them are coming!! :D

Twelve Days 'Till Thanksgiving!!

This is my Thanksgiving Display. No one else seems to enjoy it the way I do, but then again, most people aren't counting down to Thnaksgiving. :D

Fish Face!!

This Balloon has been up for a little over a month now. CrAzY!! I still like it. :D I might even be able to make one on my own now...but most of that'd be sheer luck. :D

I'm actually a little relieved not to find Kirsten Dunst on here, since I started working at Party Palace I've been told several times that I look like her...but this doesn't say so. :D

...and more work...

This one wasn't my display...but I tied some of the bows and fixed some of the pinned roses. :D I just liked it, mostly. :D It's a Twilight Display, so if you know anyone who wants to have a Twilight Party, Party Palace is THE PLACE to shop...appearantly... :D.

Work, work, work...

So we're setting up Christmas displays at Party Palace already, and the other night I got to set one up because we were really slow. I was fun! This was my creation. :D

Did I mention Mac got a webcam?!?!

I LOVE WEBCAMS!! Although it's no where NEAR as nice as actually being near him, having a webcam is a huge improvement to not having a webcam. :D LOVE IT!!

My siblings!!

It was recently brought to my attention that my dearest Mac made up about 75% of my blog. Of course I didn't mind that too much...but it's just not fair for me not to share some of my blog space with my AMAZING family that I love SO much!! :D I'm so lucky!! Not many people are best friends with their parents and siblings. :D
