Happy

Life is good!

I'm in a really good place in my life right now,

probably the best place I've been in for a LONG time!

I am truly happy!

I know what I'm doing as a career in the future.

My testimony of the gospel is growing everyday.

I have an AMAZING family.

I have WONDERFUL friends.

I'm working in the temple and LOVE it.

I have a job that pays the bills and provides me with insurance.

And I'm 27 and feel like I am really understanding who I am as a person.

Life is good!

Crazy Pup!

Happy Easter!

We love Easter in the Bardsley Home!!  I have very fond and vivid memories of Easter as a child!  My dad and mom always went all out with baskets and hiding them.  We would have clues, follow the string (up and over the roof!), and we even had to find them with GPS' one year!  So even though me and the brothers are all in our twenties, we still love to celebrate and go all out!!  So we were disappointed when our parents said they were going to be in Costa Rica this year for Easter (Cameron's exact words: "My first Easter back and you guys are leaving?!").  Grandma and Grandpa invited us to Easter dinner so we went home after church and much to our surprise our parents had left us clues for our Easter baskets!  Yes we are in our 20s and still love this silly tradition!!  We were all excited!!  At the bottom of the note they left in read "This was all your dad's idea.  I didn't think you guys deserved Easter Baskets!!"  Typical mom sarcastic comment!  We loved it!!  We got yummy treats (Easter candy is the BEST candy!!) and an envelope with puzzle pieces and a gift certificate.  We put all of the puzzle pieces together and on the back of the puzzle it said that Mom and Dad were treating us to dinner and gas to get up to the new City Creek Mall in Salt Lake to use our gift certificates.  So thoughtful and we were so surprised!  We had a great dinner with our family and it was a beautiful sunny day!  We played some Bocci Ball outside and sat and talked and laughed.  I'm so grateful to have such a wonderful extended family, siblings, and parents.  I am definitely blessed.  I'm also grateful for my Savior Jesus Christ and his sacrifice for me and the rest of mankind.  I hope you all had a wonderful day with your family and friends and continue to remember Christ!

I Love To See The Temple

My dad and I have a picture very similar to this from 19 years ago!

When I turned 8 my dad surprised me with a trip to Disneyland on my birthday.

I went to the airport to drop him off & he asked me to come with him on his business trip.

Being 7 years and 364 days old, all I could think of was I didn't have a suitcase!

I started crying until my Dad told me that they had a bag packed for me already!

I spent a day at Disneyland with my aunt & cousins.  Followed by Father/Daughter time!

The next my dad took me to the open house of the San Diego Temple. 

It was my first time inside of a temple and I will never forget it!

It was fun going back today and remembering that great memory.

I love you Dad and I'm so glad to share that memory with you!

(I'll try to find the picture from when I was 8 and scan it in!)

Teenagers!

Besides amazing Real Games, there are other entertaining things at Rio Tinto Stadium.

Example: These crazy teenage boys!!

Yep, they sit two rows in front of us and do this every game!

Silly Teenagers!

Best Siblings (and almost sibling!) ever!!

Enjoy!
