This counts as studying, right?

 Oh wonderful last Monday at BYU.... for two years. Such a bittersweet thing. Mostly bitter...still trying to figure out what the good parts are of leaving.

 Besides the fact I get to GO on a MISSION.........!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) !!!!!!!!!
and no finals studying (tearful meltdowns) for two years. Also not too horrible of a thing.

Things to be thankful for on this Monday-
Alissa made gluten free peanut butter COOKIES!
I did my first ever assisted handstand in yoga!
I got to go on a nice long sweltering hot walk and prepare myself for beautiful Sacramento weather...ehhhh
Jennica brought home FREE FOOD!
My FHE family is the best and we got the whole planetarium to ourselves (along with a personalized show)- thanks ADAM!!
Vanessa ever so sweetly sung me lullabys and read to me as I started my nap
I took a nap

and...

This is Sister Burgon, my New Testament teacher. She is exemplifies goodness in every possible way. She made this semester about 10000x better. Not only did she read my almost daily page long emails jammed with questions...but she answered them with about ten times the length! Most dedicated and giving woman I have ever known. Do everything possible to take her class. Just go sit in on it if you have to!
 It is life changing and amazing. I wish I could sit and learn from her forever. Or just live with her. We would be good friends....at least I like to think so.  Best teacher in the world! 

This little princess/rebel one/ "granola" showed me places on campus that have been hiding the last 6 months.

Last day of school happiness.....more of being with Alissa happiness.  :)

Look what I found!

Goodbye BYU love note airplanes off the "big glass building". Mine was so magical that it just disappeared all together!

AND finishing off the day with a little sleepover in the front yard.  Don't worry dad...it only lasted 15 mins before realizing it might not be the best idea ever.

P.S....wearing a square handkerchief dress makes every average day extraordinary!!
