GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I submitted my passport TODAY!!!!! 3-4 weeks till I'm going to Canada!!!!! If things go the way I'd like them to, I will be leaving November 12th!!!! But as we all know when we make plans, they could all change. But I just felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders when I submitted my papers. The only thing is it was a little more expensive than I thought. $101.10 which still isn't bad because the passport is good for 10 years!!!!! I can't believe this is all happening so good and will be a lot faster. I've never been on a plane so I am very nervous and scared about that but I know I will do fine. Chris has talked me through the airport thing many times so I kinda know what I'm going to expect. I've been looking at flights and I'm looking at about $500! Not bad!!! Still need to discuss it with my parents though cause I know for a good fact I won't be able to afford to pay the full $500!!! Anyways, I'm just so excited!!!! YAY!!!! I'll keep ya'll posted and updated more!!!! Loveya!
Conference!!!!
Alright! It's that time of year again!!! We just had conference this past weekend and can I just tell you that I loved it? Of course, I didn't pay alot of attention since my ENTIRE family was at my mom's. Yep, all of us. That never usually happens but it was really good to be with my brothers and sisters and their families. And even better Chris was here so I was just a happy little camper all weekend.
In between the Saturday morning session and the Saturday afternoon session, JD, Chris, Matt, Hiett, and I went below town and went shooting clay pigeons. That was really fun. That night while the boys were at the Priesthood session, I did alot of scrapbook pages in my 6x6 book that mom got for me. I actually finished it and may post some of the pics of my favorite pages but we'll see. I dont want this turning into a scrapbooking blog. ;)
Sunday was fun. More conference and more good food. I always love going to my mom's cause I can tell her exactly what I want as far as meals and she can make it for me. It was Bobbie's husband Ryan's birthday that day so we had his favorite food. (chicken strips, dutch oven potatoes, and pot luck salads from the day before) Mom made a yummy mint chocolate cake as well.
Monday was a hard day for me. I had to take Chris back to the airport. :( We both cried alot but we know we will see each other soon. I'm submitting my passport papers in either today or this next week depending on how it goes. I really want to go up to meet his friends and family. I know they can't wait to meet me too.
Just a little update for ya'll. I'm working at Michaels now if you didn't already know. I love it. Things are starting to get stressful with the holidays coming up and not being able to take time off for 2 months but I love that I know I'm going to have a full work week for 2 months. Wednesday nights I am taking an Institute class with my best friend Jenny. We are taking Dating and Courtship and I love it. I'm learning so much more about the church and I am just loving all of it. My amazing boyfriend Chris is still amazing and I still love him more than anything in this world. We are taking the steps and measures we can to be good people and yes, marriage is in our daily talk BUT it is far into the future so dont be getting ready to come to a wedding for me just yet. I have the best friend in the entire world who I love so much. We don't get to hang out as much as I'd like to because our schedules are completely opposite but when we do it is sure fun. We talk/text every day and I dont know what I would do without Jenny in my life right now. She has been such a strength to me and I just love how I can be myself around her and she brings out the best in me. I love my family and its only getting bigger. Tiff and Ryan are going to have their 2nd on TUESDAY! I am so excited for him to come. I bet he will look a lot like Kolby! :D
This is long enough for now but thanks to those who read and follow my blog. I enjoy writing. I just need to update more on a regular basis. But I will. I just need some motivation.
