Roommate Quotes :)

So my roommates and I were watching Eclipse  and my roommate Christine said

"what if your boyfriend glittered?"

Kaeli Replied..

"I would parade him around and say, " Look what my boyfriend can do?"
haha

Gotta love our random quotes :) 

missionary

So on Saturday before running the 5k I was having fun making friends and taking pictures with Random people :)
{this is one of my favorite ways to make friends} anyways so I got talking with one of these girls and found out that she served her mission with someone who I went to school with. So I guess she emailed that missionary and this what she said to him
          She is darling, and super duper friendly, and I can tell she will be a stellar Missionary!  

This makes me happy inside! People notice you, so make sure where ever you are, whoever you meet that you are setting that example of the believers. 

{First timothy 4:12}
12Let no man adespise thy youth; but be thou an bexample of the believers, in word, in cconversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in dpurity.

You never know who is watching you :)

What Heaven See's in you!




Sent to this earth
You were saved through the ages for this day
and time
Child of great worth
Child of promise, daughter of the Divine
Pure and holy in a little, white dress
You were held in a circle and you were
blessed
And the Father looked down
And the angels surrounded that place
They knew the truth, all that you could do
And you will, too, if you have eyes to see
What heaven sees in you
Dressed in white once more
Making promises to follow in God’s way
So much lies in store
For the little girl who enters at the gate
Pure and holy in a little, white dress
You were led into the water and you were
blessed
Repeat Chorus
Do you understand who you are
Part of the Father lives in you
If you continue on this path
Every promise God has given will come true
Heaven on earth
In the house of God, so much fills your heart
and mind
Woman of great worth
Woman of promise, daughter of the Divine
Pure and holy in a long, white dress
You promise forever and you are blessed
And the Father looks down
And the angels surround that place
They know the truth, all that you can do
And you do, too, ‘cause you have eyes to see
What heaven sees in you
Will you have eyes to see
What heaven sees in you

Run for Virtue!


Last year vs this year :)

Well today I woke up and decided that I was going to run this 5k that I had seen all these posters about. It was called the Run for Virtue. Its purpose was 
{a race to instill virtue through pornography prevention}

So I got there and it was SNOWING!! haha quite different from running in Hawaii in the beautiful tropic sunny weather :) I was able to meet so many fun new people I loved it!
I am happy to report that I finished the race.
I didn't even stop once!
I beat my time by 3 minutes last year.
{please don't laugh i'm not much of a runner but my time was 27:46 I was happy}

It felt good to accomplish something :) I made a lot of new friends throughout the day!






Most importantly I finished!
I always like to finish what I start! All of your runners out there, I admire you. Keep up the great work, You inspire me! 
ANd ALWAYS finish what you start :)

Me ENCANTA el Templo :)



After School { Benson, Will, Anthony, Jay and I} all went to this El Salvador restaurant. It was really really good. I can not tell you how HAPPY it made me to be in this type of environment. I was able to order in Spanish and talk to the waitress in Spanish. It just made me excited to serve on my {Spanish speaking mission} . We tried all sorts of different foods, it was yummy. I love trying new foods now :) 



After we ate Benson, Will, Anthony and I all went to the temple and did a session. It was such a beautiful experience. I am SO thankful for a beautiful temple and house of the Lord. 
While in the temple I was able to read out of Doctrine and Covenants section 84.
If you have the time read it here.

I feel so blessed and thankful for a temple so close. { just two short minutes away driving}
I know that so many people in other countries would travel hours, days and save up money from the entire year just to make a trip to the temple. 
Having a temple so close makes me want to take full advantage of it and go as much as I can. 
I have made the goal to go at least once a week,{If I get to go twice thats even better}.

I love the temple! 
I love the scriptures.
I love this Gospel.

~ Love

I was just getting ready to go back to school after getting home for a little break when I heard the Door Bell Ring.

One of my roommates Ashley went to answer the door, and this lady asked for Kaitlin Gray.
I went downstairs only to see a floral lady with a bouquet of pink roses and white Daisies!  I was a little bit confused as to who they were from. When to my Surprise there was a little card.

I couldn't have been Happier!!! 
Oh man I can stop looking at these beaUTiful flowers!

I am thankful for the technology and the fact that I can even get flowers all the way from
another country! :)

April 6, 1830:
The Day the Church Was Organized

Joesph Smith!

181st anniversary of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was Organized! 
We are so blessed to have had this beautiful gospel restored unto us once again on this earth!
This couldn't make me happier :)
*****
I know that my redeemer lives!
I know that he loves us!
I know that my Heavenly Father hears and answers our prayers.
I know that Joesph Smith was a true prophet who restored this gospel onto the earth once again.
I know that if we read the Book of Mormon and take on Moroni Challenge in 
Moroni 10:4-5 
{4And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would aask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not btrue; and if ye shall ask with a csincere heart, with dreal intent, having efaith in Christ, he will fmanifest the gtruthof it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.
 5And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may aknow the btruth of all things.}
* that we can come to know of its truth and gain our own testimony. 
I know that we have a living Prophet today President Thomas S. Monson and that he continues to lead and guide us in these last days.
I know that this gospel is true with all my heart! 
{Love it .Live it and Share it }

You make me Happy!
 ***
Your smile
The way you look when you are serious
Your voice when you get excited
The way you sound on the phone
Your sweet messages throughout the day
Your concern
when you say, " Kait heres the thing" :)
When your'e tired
Your Laugh
How you like to plan
How spiders scare the living daylights out of you
Your sweet reminders 
Your cute face
When you give me the look
How you hate saying goodbye
Your stories
Your testimony
Your love for the gospel
Your love for your family
your beautiful green eyes

Just some conference Sunday fun :)




After the last conference session the whole world came over :) 
IT was fun just chilling! 

Got to love Sundays! 

{p.s the Semester is almost over}

April General Conference was INCREDIBLE!


General Conference was INCREDIBLE!!!
Seriously words can not describe it! 

I had the most amazing weekend with these two girls. We stayed in a hotel and just had the times of our lives.

Lets just say that there was hot tubing, running around in bathrobes, dancing and jumping on beds :)

General Conference weekend was amazing! 
We are so blessed to have living prophets and apostles today to lead and guide this Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Correctly.

I love this Gospel! 
{Will post more later about General Conference}

I WENT there :)


Tonight I drove to Salt Lake to go and meet up with some friends from Arizona. I was able to do a session at the Salt Lake Temple with Rachel and Joe Lyman, Diego and Will. It was so great to be able to catch up with them and be able to go through the temple together. This was my first time going in the Salt Lake Temple and it was a wonderful experience. 
{ Different with it being the " live" session, but I loved it} 
I want to go back as soon as I can.

******
After the session at the temple we went outside and took some fun pictures :) 
Turned out the guys that I asked to take our pictures are entering the MTC the same day as I am. One of them a week earlier, however one of them is going to the same mission as Amber Creason Chicago {Spanish Speaking} Thought that was pretty neat. So I told them that I would be seeing them in the MTC. haha kinda funny!


Just a little Family photo is what it looks like :) {with one on the way} haha

I love love love this temple! looks like a Castle :) 


I was SO happy to be able to see Rachel Tilley  {Now Lyman} again! This girl is amazing!! 

***

After that I had a long drive home. { ok well like 45 minutes but it was midnight and I was tired}

I was SUPER happy when I received a phone call from this cute boy in Costa Rica :) 
He talked to me for a long time and this made me happy. I tried to play an April fools Joke on him, but he saw right threw me. {I am the WORST liar} I guess thats a good thing! 
****

Heading back to Salt Lake tomorrow Afternoon and spending the entire weekend there. 
kinda excited! :) 

Ok maybe REALLY excited!!!

I invite all of you to watch General Conference. It is a wonderful time where we are able to listen to our apostles and our wonderful Prophet Thomas S. Monson.
We get to hear these amazing speakers speak twice a year. 
{ Once in October and once in April}

Just go to lds.org and watch General Conference! 
Its great! You will love it I promise. 

Well goodnight Cyber World :) 
Hope you have a incredible Conference Weekend!!
