I love Devri Pope!

I don't think I have blogged much about My dear Devri, so here is a post dedicated to her.
I don't even know where to begin with Devri. I met this woman in the fall during my first semester living in Mountain Pine apartments. She has been my roommate ever since. She was my sanity among the other freshman fighting over apple sauce, yelling "take me to the temple" at anything male, and of course the craziness of the semester!

We have had so much fun together over the last couple semesters. She is very easy going and loves everyone. I appreciate how she always puts up with my crazy ideas and is always willing to have fun. She drove 30 minutes with me in my convertible in 8 degrees below zero weather just to go meet a boy. The top was broken a bit and we had snow blowing in our face as we drove in an ice cube down the freeway. I of course decided to wear thin flats without socks and so because she is so giving she let me wear her gloves on my feet so my toes didn't fall off like they felt like they were going to.

This is our roommate pitty party! Oh so much fun!
Showing of her gymnastics skills!

This girl is the best athlete I have ever seen! She and her family are pretty much good at everything they try. She was the champion winter semester in basketball.


Anyway the point is I love this girl! What a blessing she is to me! Every morning and night she can be found praying and reading her scriptures. Every morning she would get up early and work out and every evening she would say to me, "I love you and I will always love you!" (an inside joke we share and I love it!) Through her example she has taught me tolerance, patience, and that if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all.
