Goodbye Lizzie Mcguire...

**BEFORE**

**AFTER**

I Can't believe it!! Me and my family were up visiting my grandma this weekend when one of Hillary Duff's (Lizzie Mcguire) music video came on. WoW i was very disgusted and so disappointed! Why do all the sweet innocent Disney channel girls have to turn so nasty?! Lizzie Mcguire aired on the Disney Channel for like 4 years and then "The Lizzie Mcguire Movie" came out (which i loved by the way). Then after that she slowly changed... she got sickly skinny and it all went down hill from there. It is just so sad to me... Do they realize how many cute little girls want to be just like them?? This last year i went to a few different Miley Cyrus (Hannah Montana) concerts, which by the way i love her. Seeing thousands of cute little girls with Hannah Montana shirts and dressed just like her made me smile :) I think it is so cute but it can become a bit of a problem... I will be so sad if Miley turns out crazy (i have already started to hear rumors) but i guess i will start preparing myself now...

**This is an article someone wrote about the new Hilary duff...
"Good girl gone bad" This is what happens to all of our favorite pop stars… especially the Disney ones! It wasn’t long before Britney and Christina removed their good girl act and seemed to be competing over who could sport the least amount of clothing while moving their hips upon anything that moved. Then we had Lindsay Lohan going commando and always looking drugged out, Miley Cyrus featured in questionable pics with her Dad, and nude photos of Vanessa Hudgens plastered on the internet. I can only wonder which new Disney star is going to abandon ship next. It must be something in the water.

Temple & Unexpected Visit

This week i had the opportunity to attend the Draper Temple Open house. The walk through the Temple was pretty amazing. The last time i got to do that i was just a little girl. I was really excited because this time i was old enough to really take in and realize that i was walking in the lords house. What a beauty, it holds such a special spirit. I had some of the same feelings as i did back in the summer when i had the opportunity to walk through the sacred grove. I couldn't hold the tears back as i walked through the beautifully decorated rooms. It was so peaceful and Wow the chandeliers are gorgeous! I wanted to take home all of the beautiful paintings on the walls. If you haven't been able to go, I would encourage you to walk through the building as open houses don't last long and are not very often. (especially if you are not able to attend the temple on a regular basis). I can't wait to dress in my wedding gown and fix myself up in the Bride's Room. :) I couldn't help thinking about the day that i will be sealed to my sweetheart for time and all eternity in the house of the lord. I am so excited and look forward to that day so much.

I heard from Rebecca on Tuesday morning, she told me that they just flew in to Salt Lake. WhAt?!... I didn't know they were even coming! I was very excited and the next morning i took a trip down to salt lake for lunch with Rebecca and her sister Ruth. I was able to spend a few hours with little Libby. ( i don't know why i always call her Little Libby because she is not so little anymore!!) The boys were all gone skiing so i didn't get to see them but we still had a fun time. Libby will be 1 next month and i cannot believe it!! Time goes by so fast! She's not walking yet but any day now... :) Thanks Rebecca for the surprise...it is always so good seeing my second family!

JANUARY BIRTHDAY'S...

HaPpY BiRtHdAy To YoU,

HaPpY BiRtHdAy To YoU,

HaPpY BiRtHdAy Dear Mom & Courtney...

...HaPpY BiRtHdAy To You!!!

My mom is the BEST mom in the world! She has so many qualities that i hope to have when I'm a mom someday. I'm so grateful to share such a close relationship with my mom, I don't know what i would do without her! (i don't know if my family would survive). Happy Birthday Mom I Love You!!!

Courtney turned 16!! Ahh that is SO scary! I can't believe she is old enough to date & drive! (I'm nervous for those two things she is now able to do). I don't know what my family would do without court. She is the family member that keeps us happy and going :) She has a fun personality and is a very fun person to be around. I love you court and hope you have a happy birthday!! (It's to bad i can't say 16 and never been kissed!) :) :) :)
