Happy Birthdays and Carly's Home!!

So I have missed a few shout outs on birthdays, but I guess late is better than not at all, right?

Happy Birthday Mom! I know your birthday was last week, but we were at receptions and had other stuff going on, but your birthday was probably the most important day of the week! Everyone is always telling me how much I look like you and I couldn't be more happy about that! You are so beautiful and I hope that I look exactly like you when I am a mom! Thank you for all the thoughtful things you do for me and for always calling me and keeping in touch even when I am only a little over an hour away. You have been my best friend from day 1 and I am so lucky to have you as my mom! Love you so much!

The next birthday wish goes out to my most amazing cousin, Megan! She is seriously such an amazing girl! She works two jobs, is the most active person I know, is in college, and still finds time to come hangout with the family! I am so lucky to have such an amazing cousin and friend. I hope your birthday is absolutely as wonderful as you are! Love ya Meg!

My dearest friend Carly Cahoon gets home from her mission TODAY! I am so excited to see her and give her the biggest bear hug! Carly is so unique and beautiful. I know she has helped so many people to find the truth and to feel the spirit and the love that our Heavenly Father has for them. Welcome home Carly! I am so excited to hear all the quality stories you've experienced over the past year and a half. Can't wait to see your smilin' face!
