2008 and start of 2009

Well I have been busy trying to get a good start to my 2009, that I haven't had time to sit down and blog about the things I have done, and things that I have been thinking about.
I have been thinking a lot about 2008 and all the memories I have had. The other day I sat down at the computer almost all day long, and made a movie with the pictures of my 2008. It was kinda hard to get through. I realized I had some really good times, that I never want to forget. I now have the cutest Nephew. I am able to have all my brothers living close to me. I graduated from Snow College with my associates degree, and while there become close to some of the greatest friends that I have ever had. I also feel that I have became closer to my parents and all my family. I love having my nieces and nephew around. I love them so much. There are so many things in 2008 that I will probably never forget. I also had a time in 2008 when I thought nothing was ever going to go right again. Within a month. I had a really good friend from my childhood die, Steven left on a mission, My dog that I had for about 15 years died, my horse got sold, I had been in 2 cars when they were crashed (one of them being mine), and other things. But I feel that I have become stronger because of these experiences. Around this time I got a tile with a saying on, that I kind of live by now. It says... " Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning to dance in the Rain." I realized that I had been waiting for the Storm to pass, so now I have been trying to dance in the rain. Anyways, 2008 was a good year and it will be missed, but I am really looking forward to what 2009 has to offer. I have already got off to a good start.
