Small and Simple Things....

So seriously- have you ever gone to buy a new ink cartridge for your printer and felt a little robbed? I mean come on- it almost costs more for a new ink cartridge than for a new printer. What is the deal folks? Well... I knew my printer was out of ink, but I really didn't want to spend the money on a new cartridge. Then my mom got the best idea ever from her boss- Did you know you can refill ink cartridges at certain locations? Well I certainly did not! And let me tell you- spending $10 is SOO much better than the like $30 for a new one. So I finally googled it and found that Walgreens provides this great service so I went out to get me some more ink so I could finally print once again!! I turn in my cartridge and walk around the store for a few minutes. By the time I came back it was done, but the nice Walgreens worker said it had just barely failed the print test. He said he would sell it to me, but if it didn't work I could bring it back for a refund. I thought "oh well, whatever..." Well he tried to ring it up and turns out the lady who did the print test had already cancelled the order so he gave it to me for free. I was slightly bummed cuz I thought I might have to actually go buy a new cartridge afterall. Well... I remembered the guy said it just barely failed, so I thought "why not just test it and see!!" So I did and............... IT WORKED BEAUTIFULLY!!!!

I am thankful for the small and simple things in life: like free ink cartridges for my printer! :o)

Families Are Forever

 

On Sunday morning my sister's husband suddently passed away. We had a family weekend in St George. He had pneumonia, but the doctor had given him antibotics and sent him on his way. My sister woke up Sunday morning and Dave was having a difficult time breathing. She called the ambulance, but Dave never responded to any of the hospital protocol. My heart aches for my sister and her 3 children. The love and support from family and friends has been tremendous.

In leiu of flowers a memorial fund has been set up for Garrett, Hailey, and Allyssa in memory of their father. Any contributions would be appreciated and can be accessed at any Wells Fargo bank under "David Hogge's Kids"  Thank you for all of the thoughts and prayers in their behalf.

At this time I feel extremely blessed to have the Gospel in my life. It is very comforting to know during this difficult time that families are forever.

Rexburg

Here is a picture that I took of the Rexburg Temple while I was at BYU-Idaho.

Well- This weekend I took a little trip back to Idaho to see a few old friends. It was my friend Del's birthday this weekend and I haven't been back since the summer, so I made the miserable drive up there! It was great to see some old friends. I stayed with an old roommate, Sarah, and had a fun time catching up with her. Then on Saturday I met a friend at Craigos!! Oh how I miss that place!! It was great to catch up with her as well and after we went back to her place so I could see her baby!! She is super adorable and already 7 months. I can't believe it has been that long since I've been there. Then I ran over to see another friend who had just had a baby at the end of December. I guess my afternoon was full of babies!! ha. That night I took Del out to Texas Roadhouse for his birthday dinner! It was fun and delicious as always. We went back to Rexburg and saw When In Rome in the cheap theatre. Seriously one of the weirdest movies ever.... Glad I saw it in the cheap theatre! haha. I took it easy on Sunday and then drove home. Sadly I didn't take any pictures, which is totally weird for me. (hence the reason I had to put an old picture up. boo)

It was great to see old friends and be back in Rexburg, but I really don't miss it there. I had a great time while I was there, but don't have any desire to go back!! But I had a great weekend!!! Thanks for everyone who took time out of their weekend to see me!!!

Beautiful
