A Kenzie Randall Story

" There is a beauty and clarity that comes from simplicity that we sometimes do not appreciate." Dieter F. Uchtdorf It seems that the older I get, the simpler my testimony becomes. The basics of this gospel are beautiful and powerful and whenever hard times come, I'm reminded of that. The gospel to me is... Heavenly Father. He loves me so much. He knows the right people you'll need at the right time. He understands you perfectly. He made such a beautiful place for us to live and enjoy. Jesus Christ. An Atonement that makes everything ok, every single time. Mistakes that no longer exist because He's forgotten all of them. An example and a leader to follow. Family. A marriage that is unshakeable and forever. A best friend to have by my side through everything. Parents that love each other and that love me. A support system and of course, people to laugh with. The gospel is... Loving everyone, no matter what. Helping each...

We flew down to Arizona a few weeks ago because my brother (in law, technically) was getting ready to leave on his mission to Philadelphia. It was a weekend of meeting new people, playing games, taking pictures, and, of course, over 100 degree weather. I'm thankful to have a second family that loves me and lets me hang out with them. I've always wanted to have a sister my age, too, and Taryn is the best one I ever could have asked for. Glad we can always talk about books and school and life! Sister friends are the best friends. I'm also really excited for Hayden and his chance to serve a mission. I'm so thankful for Tanner's mission and I really believe it had a huge impact on who he is today. It also got me thinking about how Mason is going to be in Hayden's spot this time next year and that is CRAZY and so exciting. Also, the family that jumps together stays together, am I right? ;)  And flying is a thousand time...
