were going on an adventure!

i recieved a text message from one of my besties (sam) yesterday afternoon.
the conversation went something like this:

sam: im craving fat jacks.
ash: lets go to ephraim!!! that sounds so good.
sam: okay. i get out of class in a little bit then i have to print pictures.
ash: drive here and then i can drive the rest of the way.
sam: k ill text you when im done, and then we can go.
ash: yay!!! i know what im going to get
sam: ham/pinapple pizza witha side salad w/ ranch and italian! (on the side)
ash: you know me too well..what are you goin to get??
sam: probably a combo.
ash: can we really go????
sam: i have lots to get done.. but..

okay so we didnt end up going to ephraim, it would have been quite the drive for miss sam. so we met in bountiful and i introduced her to one of the loves in my life. Nielsens.
oh sam. why can't we be roomies again?? we have way too much fun.

Tricia Rogers

A few weeks ago a girl named Tricia that I had danced with my sophomore year was in a tragic car accident and passed away a few days later. It was a very sad time for all. She was such a great person and is missed by many. More than half of our team from that year and Kathleen (our coach) went to the funeral. It was a very spiritual and emotional experience for me. It brought on a new perpective of life for me, and was a good refresher of the gospel. I am so greatful and blessed for the knowledge that families can be together forever!
