Better be ready!

Remember that old guy I told you about who tells us the funniest things in weights... he might have out done himself. 

Our teacher was out of town, so he asked this man (who wrote the text for that class, what!?) to have us write our names down for attendance. 

He tells me, "all right, after you write your name down don't just stand around, make sure you get to lifting! A captain from the army is coming around in about 30 minutes. His name is Captain Moroni, he's looking for strippling warriors. And if you're aren't pumping iron he's not going to take you!"

I about fell over laughing.

People that are Wonderful: Edition 7

Everyone, I want you to meet one of my best friends Lexi Clukey.
isn't she pretty??
This post has been long overdue in the fact that we have seen each other through a lot of changes.
and i don't say thank you enough. 
we met (by what i am convinced no small chance) senior year.
To this day i'm still convinced to this day that Lexi's family moved to Park City senior year so we could meet.
she's been a such a blessing in my life.
college is messy.
and i'm so thankful to have this girl by my side :)

1) Lexi has taste for the exquisite. I'm not talking like super fancy stuff, but quality things. Things like music, style, people, and the way to spend her time. and I like that, especially the people part.

2) She is a super talented person. Did you know Lexi has played on an album with musicians? and that she can hear a song look up a few cords and figure it out on the guitar? and she can sing with it too?! She has a natural artistic inclination. And it's SO COOL.

3) Lexi loves the Lord. and if that isn't important. Then I don't know what is. Thanks for helping me be better and being my temple buddy.

4) She is really smart. she works hard to do well in school, she knows her limits, but doesn't ever give up. Even when the subject is challenging.

5) she can throw a mean party when she wants to. coordinating events may just be her calling in life. (even though it gets exhausting sometimes.) she just loves it!

6) she'll be weird with me. we just do our part to keep provo weird.

7) she is honest. and this quality is often overlooked in people, yet I think it adds so much to who Lexi is and the types of relationships she develops.

8) she's passionate. when she truly loves something or feels a certian way about life happenings she has real, raw emotion behind it. and i love that passion. she has the power to ignite fires, but does not abuse it. and that is signal of a girl who understands a few things about life.

9) she is really good company when you need a drive. i'm thankful that we can drive and talk and figure life out.

10) we laugh. a lot.

This list is just a few reasons that Lexi is wonderful. I'm so incredibly lucky to have a best friend as great as her. (get to know her for the pleasure of finding more great traits of lexi!)
I'm thankful linda the lady bug allowed us to meet almost 4 years ago :)
Words can't even begin to do justice to how much i love you and how thankful i am that we've been by each others side through these past few years. truly a huge blessing.  I'm glad God gave me you!
here's to many more years of figuring out this wonderful world and being crazy old ladies together in nursing homes.

Love you long time!
