I had a very wonderful birthday this year. Larry, Joni, Trent, and Casandra gave me the much-needed luggage! I love the color. I have been told that it probably will get trashed on the mission. I thought it would be good to take a picture of it, so I can remember how beautiful it started out to be. Toby gave me a gift card to Deseret Book. I have already spent it! My family gave me this picture for my birthday. My mom is so amazing! I had always liked this picture from my wedding video. She reproduced it using chalk/pastels. I find myself just staring at it for long periods of time. I sat infront of it staring into it on Wednesday night. I felt an overwhelming feeling of Tyler and Grandpa's presence at that very moment and found myself in tears.
I know they will be with me on my mission just as they are with me every day. They are watching over us all.
This is a the picture that the brethren of the church get to see when they are deciding where to send me for my mission... Hopefully they will be inspired!

Wow! That is an amazing picture that your mom did. I LOVE it! I think I would stare at it all the time too! It is awesome. Anyway, I am glad you had a good Birthday!
What a beautiful picture! Tell your mom she is so talented! I just love it!
My dear Cassie Jo, After going to Allen and Patrice's blog to see if there was an update on my grandbaby, I decided to visit your Mom's blog, which then brought me to yours! I am only reminded of what a special, beautiful, young woman you are. I know you've been hearing me say that for years, but it is as true as it was the first time I said it. You are such a strong person and each trial you've encounteredgehfqh has made you that much stronger. "The world has need of willing men..." and you are definitely a strong, talented individual who is more than willing to "help the good work move along," so "put your shoulder to the wheel!" I love you, little one, and wish you all the luck and love this world has to offer. Much, much love, Billie Sue
What a beautiful picture your mom did, she is very talented! I also like the picture of you, you are very photogenic!
