I thought about my life over the past two years. I have learned so much! I have some regrets though.
My Biggest Regret: Not spending enough time with my family. If you know me at all, you know that my family is my favorite thing. While living in Salt Lake, I took them for granted. I didn't visit enough, call enough, pay enough attention to what was going on in their lives, etc. I got lost in what my friends wanted me to do and forgot about my family. They are the best family ever and I don't know what I would do without them. They have gotten me through my greatest challenges in this life thus far. I love them with all my heart and will never take them for granted again!

As you can see, I have pretty much the best family ever! (No, I'm not biased at all. :))
They are the best examples to me. I have been able to spend a lot more time with them lately and am reminded of their countless qualities that I strive to have one day. I'm going to include the in-laws because they are my siblings too.
Dustin is so smart and organized! He has dreams and never gives up on them. He takes care of all that is his. He has so many good ideas.
Alyssa is so funny. She is a good listener and will take your side when you need to vent to her about someone. She will agree with you and make you feel better. She is also a great mother!!
Samantha is driven. She knows what she wants and she goes for it. She never gives up on something or someone. She is a great mother and fiercely devoted to her children.
Mike is giving. He will take his own time to help you. He loves his family and does his best to care for them.
Brandon is his own person. He doesn't care what other people think. He is who he is and you just have to deal with it. He doesn't judge people, and doesn't care if people judge him.
Tori is kind. I don't know her very well yet, but what I do know is good. She cares for those around her and tries to help wherever possible.
Chase is outgoing. He will talk to anyone and everyone. He can find something in common with anyone. He can talk about anything, even if he knows nothing about it.
Hailey is nurturing. She can take care of kids like nobody's business. They love her and she loves them. She can keep six kids from ages 8 to 1 in check AND get them to clean instead of make a mes.
Alexia, Javid, and Abby are the best nieces and nephew ever. They are such sweet little characters.
My mom and dad have both instilled so many good things in our lives. They are hard working, giving, and so much more. I love them so much!
My Family Rocks!!!
