On May 23rd 2011 I will be 19 years old. Wow. How'd that happen?
Wasn't it just yesterday that I was three years old making paper airplanes with my Dad and sisters in our living room in Greeley from the old printer paper my Dad brought from his office?
Wasn't it yesterday when my Mom brought our sweet Peek-a-poo puppy home that we named Dante A Boy Good?
Could it be that in the past 19 years I:
Moved from Greeley to Cheyenne?
Discovered we were going to be adding a little boy to the family?
Watched Daddy and Grumpy and Grandpa finish the big, beautiful walk out basement in our home in Cheyenne?
Returned (as a Brownie) from a Girl Scouts retreat to a new furniture set in my big girl room - Courtesy of my Aunt Kristy, my Aunt Kristi, my Parents and Keleigh?
Was starting first grade being home schooled with the world's greatest teacher?
Made the move with my family to Draper. (where it went from - WOW you have 4 kids? to Really, you only have 4 kids? hahaha)
Made new best friends with Rebecca and Brittany and Sean and Troy?
Was baptized by my Daddy?
Was singing and dancing for Encore Performers?
Played basketball on a team for the first time?
Played soccer with 14 year olds when I was 9?
Moved again, back to Colorado?
Started going to a private school instead of being home schooled?
Played soccer at a competitive level?
Made a couple new best friends, Sarah and Ashley?
Had my first "real" crush and boyfriend (hehehe, Bryant).
Started high school?
Watched my sister get married?
Got my drivers license, and my first car?
Graduated high school?
Became an aunt?
Started and finished college?
Got my first job?
Started a career?
Bought my first house?
Had my first mature relationship?
Met, made, and lost friends?
The last 19 years have flown... and I'm sure the next 19 will do the same. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of my life, and made me who I am. I know that so much more has happened in the last 19 years than what I mentioned, but to recount my entire life would take quite a while. Thank you, to my Lord and Savior, for blessing me with my family, my friends, many opportunities, and so much more.
