“A woman’s heart should be so hidden in God that a man has to seek Him just to find her.” ~Max Lucado First and foremost, let’s get this out of the way. Once in 7th grade I was stupid enough to call Kristine a b-tch and she immediately punched me so freaking hard that…
As some of you may know, I’ve been on a quest to write about each one of my friends that I’ve had in my life that has made a big impact. In this post I would like to write about the Godhead that consists of Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. All…

“The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity.” -Seneca (Roman philosopher, mid-1st century AD) To be honest I am not so sure where to start on this one; I’ve not really even started dealing with the death of my grandmother. Not so much because I don’t want to…

An ode to the good ol’ boy named Joey Hoskins He and I also met in 5th grade. He and Rachelle Gibson (who I had a big crush on) were the first two non LDS kids I met so I naturally gravitated to them. He Lived a couple blocks up from me and we…
