What I think I have learned

So tomorrow I turn 30. I have a friend who told me that I needed to do this and that I would appreciate this years later :)

What I remember or lessons learned in the 30 years . Sorry but this is very random.

• I change and I grow as a person but who I really am has not changed. I learned this going from high school to the University of Wyoming. I went to Wyoming and I had this thought that I could re-invent myself. No one knew me so I could be anybody I wanted to be. Within 6 weeks I realized I was still the same tomboy girl. That is when it hit me that I truly knew who I was.


• The gospel has remained a consistent thing in my life. Something to almost count on. Knowing that no matter what someone is watching out for me and loves me unconditionally.


• Family has evolved from mom and dad 2 brothers and a sister, grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousin to moms and dads, several brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews, aunts and uncles. Many of these are not related to me by blood but those who have claimed me as part of their family.


• I love my job and I know this is where I need to be right now in my life. I love learning about medicine and how to help people. The human body is amazing and is just another testament to me that Heavenly Father knows what he is doing.


• I miss horses. I miss being able to go out the door to go riding. It is one of the things I have promised myself to return to.


• I have figured out that I don't mind being a follower but I naturally tend to take leadership roles because I refuse to be lead in the wrong direction.


• I am a very, very, very competitive person but have learned how to relax or mentally prepare myself that it is "just a game"


• I hope to be married and have kids but I am enjoying being single and realize that I am able to do a lot of different things because I am single. I only have myself to answer to and when I want to do something I am able to do it. There is a wonderful freedom in that.


• I enjoy being out in nature and taking pictures of all God's creations.


• I always claim Colorado as home and Wyoming as being the place where I became friends with some of the best people in the entire world.


• I love music. I love just relaxing and listening. My favorite is piano and violin add the flute and bagpipes and I would be in heaven. Music makes my heart happy. One of these days I will learn how to play the piano.


• I love going to the zoo. I know this is random but the zoo is one of my favorite places. But I have high expectations as well. I do not recommend the National Zoo in Washington DC. The Salt Lake City zoo is 10 times better.


• I don't like it when people try to hold me or the people I care about back.


• I prefer to travel the cool places in the States then to go outside the country.


• I like to ask the question why. I may completely agree with whatever you did or are saying but I like to know how people think.
• I am a morning person. I love sunrises and sunset.


• I don't mind turning 30. I doesn't bother me at all but it does feel weird. I feel like high school was just a couple of years ago not 12.

Well I think that is all the soul searching that I can stand. Happy Birthday to Me!!! Supposedly I am an adult now(for real this time) :)

2010

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010!!!

Catching UP!!

Since I lasted posted something I went to Daniel's early birthday party, had the Christmas party for work and went to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert.
The day after Thanksgiving John and Pam had Daniel's Birthday party early since Mom and Dad were in town. Pam had made all this wonderful food for Thanksgiving and I think we ate all day. The funniest part for me was Caleb after Daniel opened his Star Wars Lego's grabbed the box and hugged it saying "I just love these"(See picture below).
The Christmas party for work was last night. It is fun to go to because our Department is so huge that most of the time we can recognize each others voices but we have never actually seen each other.
This morning I went to the Mormon Tabernacle Christmas Program. I had put my name and Mom's name in to get tickets and both of us won. I gave my 4 tickets to the Powell family and then used Mom's for 3 of my friends. The Powell's went Friday night they had seats in the Balcony of the Conference Center where today we had tickets for down on the floor. We were 16 rows behind President Monson. It was a great concert. The special guests were Natalie Cole and author David McCullough. I think the highlight though was a solo by the organist. It was amazing. It was also very cool to see and listen to both Natalie Cole and David McCullough tell us what a great experience they had and that they were impressed by everyone involved with the church and program.

Davis Family Scripture Time :)

I Love These!

THE LAST THING TO ADD IS THAT IT HAS BEEN COLD!!!! HELLO WINTER!

Autumn

I love this time of the year because of the changing of the colors and the crisp air. Here are some pictures of mine that captures autumn for me. Enjoy!!

I am sharing this video of Taylor Swift and T-pain (from www.cmt.com) because it makes me smile and laugh. If you don't know Taylor Swift is a very popular country singer and T-Pain if you can't tell by the name is a rapper. Listen to the words and watch him though watching her is pretty funny as well. So enjoy and hope this makes you smile and laugh as well.

Updating per Uncle Kenny

Per my Uncle Kenny's request he wanted the picture of a hummingbird that was at his house on my blog. I also add pictures of flowers from his house as well.

Laramie 08.17.09-08.23.09

Monday afternoon I travel from Fort Collins to Laramie. Greg and Kori let me stay with them and kept me well feed (I even had to eat veggies). Greg and Kori had to work during the day so I reacquainted myself with Laramie and took pictures of peoples flowers on my walks. Laramie weather was heavenly so I would take a couple walks a day. I also got to hang out with Patty for a couple hours one day. There has been a lot of changes since I was going to college but also several things have remained the same. Greg and Kori live in this wonderful neighborhood that takes great care of each other.
So on to the pictures. Sorry you get to see a ton of flower pictures and believe me this doesn't even represent a quarter of the pics I took.









On Saturday we went rock climbing up at Vedauwoo. We get out of the vehicle and we are putting sunscreen on when Greg sees a moose, but I can't get my camera fast enough and we decided there was no way we were going to go chasing because the grass was so tall. So we started to hike towards the rocks and that is when I am able to get pictures of the moose. It was very cool!!!



Here is the group pictures. This was about an hour into us climbing because we had started up oneside and realized we couldn't make it to the top so we went clear to the otherside and started to climb. The boys are little monkeys and had no problems scambling up the rocks.







A wonderful sunset in Laramie.

Thanks Kori and Greg. I had a great week. Just what the doctor ordered. I don't know if I was sore from rock climbing or having sword fights with Bodie and Jamen:)
