Summer 2010

Alright so a lot has happened in the month or so. I saw the beautiful Alaska. I got to go on a cruise with my fam. It was amazing. I love spending time with them and Alaska and Canada are gorgeous.

I have officially finished my classes and internship! Wow I cannont believe I am now officially officially DONE with my undergrad degree. I can't believe how fast the time flies.

I'm staying busy at work but I still love my job.

My great grandma passed away last week. She was 93 and lived a good life.

I also at this time want my friend Catherine to know how much I love her and that my thoughts and prayers are with her and her family, especially her sister at this time.

Please at this time also keep my grandpa in your prayers.

Thank you all for being my friend. You have no idea how much it really means to me.

here are a few of hundreds of pictures from Alaska!

Alaska

So I posted some Alaska Pics on the FB.... Check them out.

I will post a few on here later and I'll blog about my trip so stay tuned.

Hopefully soon I'll have some exciting updates.

My Life Rocks!

Well it's that time again... yes the time of the month when I need to blog again. Sorry I haven't been very good at it lately. For some reason that thing called life is keeping me busy. If you have any ideas how to make it slow down... let me know.

The biggest event of the last few weeks is my best friend Chelsea is now married! WOW! I'm so happy for her and Bryan. I had the privilege of staying with her and her fam for her wedding. (She got married in Nauvoo) I have posted some pictures, but stay tuned because I'll put up some more later. (Also sorry these are not in a very good order... but oh well).

While in Kansas I also got to see Janelle's mom and dad. I enjoy spending time with them.

Next one of my good friends Ashley came up from Arizona and we got to hang out. We went to the canyon for a few minutes. It was so fun. I think this is the first time I've seen her since she's been married :) Thanks Ash for being such a great friend!

We are going on a Cruise in a week, so chances are that I won't be back into the blogging world until after the cruise... which means I probably won't be back until after finals are overwith in June, But I'd like to give a shoutout to my Grandma Jo and my best friend Donna Horn, who's birthday's are on June 4. :) Happy Birthday!

April Showers, Bring May Weddings

So there have been a few significant things that have happened lately but I haven't had time to blog about them...

1. My uncle Doug took me skiing for the first time a few weeks. It was so fun. I'm obsessed... I want to go all the time now so I can get better... I really had a great time. (Unfortunately all the pictures of this are on Doug's phone)

2. I had a birthday and throughout the week I got to celebrate my birthday with my favorite people (except Janelle... unfortunately she couldn't be there).

Monday, I got to go to dinner with my family (including John and Donna) at Market Street. It was so fun and then on Friday Chelsea and I went to Red Robin, went shopping and topped the night off by watching the Blind Side. I'm so lucky to have such great friends and family.

3. I'm done with my undergraduate classes at BYU... weird I know.
4. TSD did their final presentation for our capstone class. I'm going to miss us. We are so great.

This is us just before our pressentation. TSD FOR LIFE!

Me with my PR Girls: Brittany, Whitney, Jessi and Kresha... I'm gonna miss these girls!

The BYUB Membership Crew!

4. Chelsea's Shower is tonight! Yay.... Wedding is in like 3 weeks... i'm so excited (like the title of my blog post) ;)

5. Lastly, I have one final left.... Woo Hoo... can't wait until that is overwith :)

Now What?

Graduation is looming. Yes I Stephanie Dautel am going to be graduating from College SOON. Yes this is a scary, yet extremely exciting thought for me to think about. I have officially applied for graduation and will graduate from BYU with my Bachelors degree in August 2010. WOW can you believe it?!?!
And here's the question that you're asking... NOW WHAT? Well I have a couple of options weighing on my mind and I'm extremely interested in hearing the input of those who read my blog. I would love to hear the insights and advice that you have for me. (obviously I plan to get a job after I graduate, but along with working I need to start working on some sort of graduate degree, I also would like to take some photography classes, since I LOVE photography) But here are the options for grad school right now.

1. Law School
2. MBA
3. Other

Comments. Suggestions. Additional information would be appreciated.

THANK YOU.

The Madness of March

It's that time of the year.... the most exciitng time of the year for college basketball! How will it end? I would love to hear your predictions

Oh did I mention that I LOVE college basketball?

MY BEST FRIEND

This post is dedicated to my best friend, Janelle. Although she probably won't get the chance to see this for over a year and a half. Words cannot describe my feelings for you Janelle. So instead of trying to use a bunch of words to get out my feelings.

(and these four words will NOT do it justice but here goes)

I LOVE YOU JANELLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(These are just 3 of hundreds, probably even thousands of pictures of us together)

I will miss you, but I will see you next year, you will be the the most amazing missionary and you will touch so man lives.
