My journey

Every once in a while I feel compelled to evaluate my life and make changes. If I happen to write something in my blog called "my journey" that's what it is about. To start this out I would like to quote the words from one of my favorite songs. I feel that there is no time to waste and now is the time to make changes.

by Rascal Flatts says it all.
When The Sand Runs Out lyrics

I spent the morning at an old friend's grave
Flowers and Amazing Grace, he was a good man
He spent his whole life spinnin' his wheels

Never knowin' how the real thing feels
He never took a chance or took the time to dance
And I stood there thinking as I said goodbye
Today is the first day of the rest of my life

I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on
And learn how to face my fears
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
I wanna leave something here

Go out on a ledge, with out any net
That's what I'm gonna be about
Yeah I wanna be runnin'
When the sand runs out

'Cause people do it everyday
Promise themselves they're gonna change
I've been there, but I'm changin' from the inside out

That was then and this is now
I'm a new man, yeah, I'm a brand new man
And when they carve my stone they'll write these words
"Here lies a man who lived life for all that its worth"

And as the cold wind blows across the graveyard
I think I hear the voice of my old friend whisper in my ear

I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on
Learn how to face my fears
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
I wanna leave something here

Go out on a ledge, with out any net
That's what I'm gonna be about
Yeah I wanna be runnin'
When the sand runs out

HAPPY JOURNEY!

Heidi Allstate

Essa Ricker

Our little community of Spanish Fork mourns the loss of Essa Ricker and Kelsea Webster and the injury of Savannah Webster who were struck by a train by their homes in Covered Bridge Canyon. Essa has been in the same ward as my family for many years and Kelsea just moved in 2 months ago. They were taking pictures and were some how hit by two trains passing by.

We will miss you Essa and Kelsea and pray for you Savannah that you will fight for life and recover. My prayers are also with your families that they may find peace during this trying tragic time.

Josh Groban August 13, 2011

Josh Groban in concert was fantastic!

He's voice is amazing.

He is such an entertainer.

Loved every minute. Wish it had lasted longer.

We had great seats! We were seated way way up high and because it wasn't a sell out, tickets were being given in our area to better seats. We lucked out and got great seats.

Wonderful evening. Great memories!

Ian/friends/the Beatles

Ian's loves the Beatles. What more do I need to say.

Ian, Trent, Collin, Brent.

BOOK REVIEW- JANE EYRE

I must confess, this is the first time I have ever read this book. Wow, what a book.

I loved this book. Charlotte Bronte is a most amazing writer. She captures emotion and feelings so well. She knows how to put words together so beautifully. It amazes me.

It rates above Pride and Prejudge.

I cannot wait to read it again.
