I love the clothes, the smell outside, the ORANGE everywhere (it is my favorite color), hot chocolate, warm apple cider with cinnamon sticks, boots, the smell of CHRISTMAS, christmas music (yes.. ive alreay busted mine out) and also, October is my BIRTHMONTH :) I had a GREAT birthday this year.. thanks so much Jolene and Bob for making it so much fun! They made me sweedish pancakes in the morning just like I always have, and they made me cheesecake with my mommys recipie just like I always have.. I got great presents and had a fun time at their house. We had a good dinner ( just like always.. jolene makes really good food!) she made the best chocolate cupcakes.. i'll have to post the recepie soon. Im really grateful that they are so close to us so we can go see them on the weekends! (thanks for my UGG slippers mark.. they are fabulous... im wearing them right now!) (i'll post a pic later)On a nother note- I miss my family.. I do, like insanely bad. I dont think there is one day that goes by that I dont get really grumpy and yell/cry/ or whine " I wanna GO HOME!" (poor Mark)
On my birthday I talked to my sister misty and when I hung up the phone my eyes teared up.. so I closed them to keep it under controll ;) but then my Daddy and mommy called me and while I was talking to them the tears just kept coming.... I want more than anything to GO HOME.
Mark is great to me.. and he trys SO HARD to make me like it here.. he is great :) But lets face it.. my family is BOMB.. I could be living in a mansion in Hawaii and I would still miss them. (Although.. Hawaii would help...) Here are some of the things I miss about my family-
- My mom always doing something for me or for someone else.. she keeps busy and is always helping other people.
-My dad waking me up in the mornings with a leg rub..
- My mom and I arguing with my dad about the Temperature in the house.
-Staying up late and watching western movies and seinfeld with my parents
-Sunday dinner with just me my mom and dad
-Going to dinner and edwards with just me my mom and dad..
-Dad and me ditching out on mom after church to avoid staying an extra hour to be social ;)
- Our sunday get togethers with great food and football watching.
- Daddy daughter dates (especially when dad pays for the food.. which is always)
-Mistys dance class/Jr. Miss with Misty/ all our bonding activities.
-Working out with misty
-Telling trista " mommy im hungry" and having her make me a delicious snack in TWO seconds.
-Back rubs with trista
-Having trista and misty on the same street just seconds away to talk to and hang out with
-Google Ball nights
-Brads inappropriate comments ;)
-Brad always makin me laugh so hard i think i might pee my pants...
-Cold stone runs with brads credit card :- )
-Brett and how he always has a good attitude, he always inspires me to be happier!-Brett always wanting brownies with the cool "edge" pan
-Going to pinnacle to visit brett in his office and just hangin out
-Bostin and his lisp and funny comments.
-Maycee and how she remembers EVERYTHING, and how thoughtful she is
-Pyper and her crazy attitude and pretty hair
-Mackay's tender heart- and his love of playing sports with mark
-Ripken and how FREAKIN ADORABLE he is
I could go on.. but I'll stop.. I miss it all.. I miss my family and how much fun we always have and how close we all are. I love you guys SO MUCH. I cant wait to come home!!!!
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

OH!!!! I cried when I read your post ....I had a hard time on your birthday also.
ReplyDeleteCome on, admit it, you had fun talking to the ten people I ask you to talk to before you could leave church.... I like to believe it helped you with your social skills...It would be a good thing for you and Mark to do in your new ward....Look at all the people you would get to know:) I Love You Both!!
