| #TBT to this exact same weekend exactly a year ago. #KLI13 #KLI14 |
So, last Saturday I wrote this blog post containing a few words about the one and only Kalon Ludvigson. Justen and Kalon both saw it and read it and Justen was awesome enough to share an excerpt from it on his facebook page.
As you can see it has received quite a bit of attention. 234 "likes" to be exact. I stand by everything I said and I would like to restate the we all love you Kalon! I would also like to respond to one comment in particular.
Kalon, you are seriously the coolest. I cannot wait to see you and I cannot wait to compete tomorrow. And I hope you always know that we are all behind you and we are all proud of you. Thank you thank you thank you to everyone who liked my words and to Justen for sharing them, but I must add this; everything I said was only the words that everybody else was thinking. Like I said, I am so excited for this incredible opportunity to compete tomorrow.
I don't have a ton of time today so I am going to refer you over HERE for some joy through the form of music notes. BONUS! It is all clean and also 100% AoF13 worthy (13th article of faith).
Sorry for the short post today, I will keep you updated on the competition this weekend! Thanks to all who have supported me. You all rock my socks!

p.s. I want to make this place more interactive. I want to know my readers. Shoot me a comment, Refer me to your blog, share your favorite scripture, tell me what color your toothbrush is. Let's be friends! :)
Hey! Alrighty guys... My namei is Eliza :) my blog is markthisdaytakehisname.blogspot.com. My favorite scripture is 2Nephi 31:19-20 because it helped me gain my testimony. My toothbrush is pink. I love your blog and wanted to be the first to "interact" (great idea btw). Thanks so much for everything!
ReplyDeleteThanks for being the first one to "interact!" I love your blog and I love that scripture! My "testimony gaining" scripture is Moroni 10:3-5 if you were wondering. I have two toothbrushes (Why? I don't know.) One is blue and one is purple. Your blog is super cute! Thanks for reading and commenting!

Oh and I also love how inspiring Kalon's story is. Oh and I meant name, not namei :)
ReplyDeletehaha I do too! He is seriously one of the coolest people I know.
DeleteI must agree with Eliza, "interacting" is a wonderful idea, so I shall have to steal it. :) You already know my blog address, but here it is for any other readers out there who might be interested: hopealwaysandprayconstantly.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteMy favorite scripture is Matthew 10:29-31, because it makes me feel important and loved, and Individual Worth is my favorite YW value.
*runs to the bathroom to check toothbrush color* my toothbrush is also pink, like Eliza's :) a guy asked me that at a Mormon dance once (well, more than once, it's a common "we don't have anything to talk about but slow dancing without talking is awkward" question in these parts. Maybe it's a typical Mormon dance question, I dunno) and I had no idea what the answer was! I don't pay attention to my toothbrush color... Hehe :)
What color is *your* toothbrush, WhitneySue? :)
I really like Kalon's story, too, and not just cuz I'm a former gymnast :) the people who go through enormous trials, all the while being super kind and chill and not whining about it, they super amaze me. Cuz I go thru trials (we all do) and mine are comparatively easy, but I'm not a pleasant person to be around when mini trials occur. I need to work on that.
I'm a convert to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I know it, I live it, I love it (one of my favorite talks EVER).
Aaaaand your blog is super awesome, dearie, just like Eliza said :) I love it when I see that you have a new post up!

Thank you! Feel free to steel. :)
DeleteThat is a fantastic scripture! I have a lot of favorite scripture and picking one is like trying to pick a favorite child (not that I would know...ha) But if I had to pick one I would say Moroni 10:3-5 as it was the scripture that helped me gain my testimony.
haha yes that was why I went to that question. Awkward Mormon dance questions are the best! I had a kid as me once "If you were a type of salad dressing what kind would you be?" haha anyways, for some reason I have two toothbrushes. Don't ask way, because I'm not sure myself. One is blue and the other is purple.
Gymnasts unite! haha I love Kalon's story as well. Trials are hard but they are so much easier through Christ. That's what I love about this church is it gives me hope in trying times.
That is also one of my very favorite talks!
Ahh thanks love! I love when you comment! It makes me happy!
Also, I love your blog to pieces! You are awesome and I'm glad we have been able to become "blog friends" regardless of the unlikely circumstances being the fact that we don't live near each other and only know of each other through blogs. It's quite cool to me.
Thanks for taking up on my challenge! You rock!
