ON THE BLOG --Monthly Wrap

-

October has been a crazy month! As you can see since I was the most awful blogger! (I never promised to be good at this.) But, it was a big month for the blog! We reached over 1000 active readers! And you guys loved the article about marrying the wrong man! I will for sure include more about those kinds of experiences. But, October was filled with lots of time in the car!
First it started with the drive to and from General Conference (of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day saints) in Salt Lake City, Utah. We had so much fun going to conference and spending time in the Boise area for a few days seeing Matthew and his family. I’ll put a few pictures below... But, there is plenty more on Instagram!  
Second! Both of the Brianna’s cut all their hair off! (Well not ALL of it, but you get the picture.) They both decided not to donate the hair as it was too damaged and brittle to donate. 
Third! We made it to the pumpkin patch so many times! We have been living in the moment and making sure to spend the holiday season right. Definitely soaking up all the spooky season opportunities to have fun!

Third! Of course Halloween. There was so much fun that happened because of Halloween. There was so many parties and costume opportunities with Halloween. It was an a amazing night filled with the girls and a little "hoeing" it up. It was an amazing night that I'm sure we will remember for a while since its our last Halloween together as single people. Or just together for a while.

I hope that your October was just as amazing as mine was. Happy holiday season to you and yours from me and mine here at Nys to be a Saint.

ON THE BLOG-- HEALING YOURSELF IS HARD

As I thought about what to write this weeks blog post on I was thinking about "happy" posts I could do. Something lighthearted and almost pointless, but I kept coming back to last weeks post. All of you loved " How I knew I was marrying the wrong man." But, I realized that I kinda left all of you hanging. I made it seem as though after I realized he wasn't right for me and things ended that everything was okay. And that is a bold faced lie. There was nothing okay about me. I layed in my apartment for two whole weeks just crying about how cheated I felt. Just hours after we broke things off I went for a walk. I walked for what felt like forever in the silent snow in Rexburg, Idaho. And once I felt kinda better, I kept walking I cried and kept crying and just kept crying. I felt so cheated, used, abused, and stupid. I had convinced myself that fighting was normal, a one sided love was normal, and only being wanted because of your "hot butt" was norma

OKAY BLOG FAMILY. This time we are talking about SEX. I know that’s going to immediately make several of you uncomfortable, honestly, I have battled with this topic and blog post for a while. I felt though that it was time that I talked about it. I want to be clear when I start this. I know several people married and unmarried that are sexually active. And that is totally your business. I also know many people who have been sexually active inside the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints without being married, and that is totally youre business. I hope for those of you that fall into any or all of those categories, that you will relate and learn from my experiences. I will unshamefully say that I had sex with someone before I was married. I am a faithful member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day saints. I am active in all of my responsibilities inside and outside the church and having had sex before marriage didn’t change that. I know what some of you are th
