MY FAMILY


I cannot say enough about how much I love love my family.
They are by far the #1 most important thing in my life
and that is how it will be forever. We went up there again this
weekend so I could teach a cooking class and to celebrate my birthday.

I will post pics from the class soon. It was so much fun!

My mom made my favorite meal and the mango sticky
rice from Benja's. It was to die for. Thanks mom!

So we have this tradition that is getting more and more
embarrassing the older I get. We go around the
room and say what we love about the birthday person.
Everyone said the nicest things about me and so now
I think I want to write one thing about each person in my
family that I love the most! Of course there is a million
reasons why I love each one of them but I will try
and narrow it down.

Dad:
I love how full of energy you are. I love that every
person you develop a relationship with, wishes
you were their dad. So many people tell me how lucky I
am to have you as my dad and I could not agree more.
My dad is friends with all of my friends and it makes us
all a big happy family.

Mom:
I don't even know where to start. I am so blessed to have
my mother in my life. I call her everyday and she is really
my best friend. She knows how to handle any situation
and helps me through some traumatic ones.
(I am a pretty dramatic girl). She gives me a sense of comfort
that no else can give me. I love you mom.

Camie:
My best girlfriend! I don't think I go a day without
talking to her. Seriously I am not much of a phone talker but
I can't go a day without venting to her and hearing what
is going on in her life. We laugh and cry together.
When she is sad, I am sad. When her heart is broken,
my heart is broken. She drives to my house about
twice a week even if we have nothing to do.
As long as we are together, we feel happy.

Jeddy (Elder Sexy Prince):
Jed used to pin me down and wouldn't let
me up until I called him a "Sexy Prince" ha ha ha.
He is on his mission in Alabama right now. I love
him so much. He is the best example of who I want to be.
He is so Christlike. He sees the good in everyone.
I think everyone thinks Jed is their best friend because of
how he makes you feel when you are with him. He can
make me laugh like no one else can. All the sisters
just adore him. He has been a perfect brother.

Erin (The Baby):
Oh my favorite rasta hippie chick! I don't know where
she got her chillness because the rest of us are pretty intense.
I love Er bear because she is such a sweet person inside
and out. She has the best heart. She has the most gorgeous
long blonde hair. She drives the boys crazy! She laughs
at everything I say and makes me feel really funny.
She has the most adorable laugh. She is the perfect "baby"
for our family.

Gino:
I love Gino because he is my baby. He loves me
unconditionally. He makes me smile by just looking at him.
I love him because he can't bark, cry or jump. (He is special)

Nicholas Jay:
I saved the best for last. My baby Nicky!
I really believe that Heavenly Father has a plan for
us and makes sure we follow our plan. I was going
to go to Utah State after my first year at Dixie
to attend their culinary program. That year they
had decided to discontinue their program
so I stayed at Dixie another year. After I graduated,
I decided to stay in St. George for the summer for some reason.
I met Nick in May. CRAZY! I am so grateful I
followed my plan and was there to meet the love of my life!
I love our life together and who we are together.
I love our goals and how he makes me feel. He is so handsome.
I am seriously the luckiest girl ever! I could go
on forever but I will save it for another day.
I am in love with Nicholas Jay Scano!

I Love My Family!
