I guess dreams really DO come true!!!

Yesterday, I was accepted to BYU-Provo!
I could feel all along that I was accepted.
It is such a relief to finally be able to start making plans about my future.

My amazing Young Women Leader (of my church)
(see more about on www.mormon.org)
brought me a very thoughtful, unexpected, gift to celebrate!

Some BYU color coordinated balloons, and some BEAUTIFUL cookies that she used from the recipe on my blog.






I was shocked!  I had no idea that she was even reading my blog.
Or that my cookies could even turn out to be that beautiful and tasty.

Thanks again!

Also, on my bookshelf I have this book on the top shelf.

For the past year I have had to continually remind myself that I truly am lucky.
Even and especially with Crohn's disease.

Because of hard situations I am able to enjoy the good much more powerfully.
I am not destined to bad luck, misfortunes happen to all at some point.

And hey, I did receive some pretty great news.
Right??

I'm going to BYU-Provo!!!
