So this last week/end was intense Kade and I are working hard to finish school, take care of all that that in tales of and manage the stresses of packing and soon to be married life. What a crazy disaster we are are right now but I would not trade it for the world I am seriously loving it all!
Where to even start to tell you all about?!
Okay Friday: Welp, it was awkwardly/awesome! I flew out at 11ish out of Idaho Falls, The guy I sit next to on the plane...( okay heres something I need to get of my chest real quick, I sometimes despise the school I go to, but it is great for one reason, when people ask me where I go to school I get to share a little bit about my faith) This is what happened with that guy on the plane, he starts drilling me .... whewww if there was ever a time in my life I was grateful to know the basics it was Friday!
So about half way baptism, I noticed kid in aisle set across the row is wearing a member of the church and has been on the same page in his book since before me and missionary moment had started talking... I know this because it happens to be an illustration... anytime now kid just pop in so I can pop my head phones in! Then somewhere in between modern revelation and prophets the older man in front of me keeps turning around... any time now seriously people help me out!
well missionary moment steps up and walks on back to get another gin and tonic, yes people he is guzzling alcohol and were are talking gospel principles.
and all of a sudden the quite plane is alive!
mister illustration, " you are doing a great job I thought about helping you out but you got this!"
head turner, " did you set his baptism date yet? "
the whole row of girls behind, " awesome job keep it up! "
one row ahead and across the isle couple, " make sure you mention the priesthood! and that we use it in the temple. "
me thinking, " wheww I get to breathe his gone for a couple minutes.."
hahaha guess not, but I am grateful for the experience to share the gospel and have so many other members be just as excited about it as I was. Hopefully, he finds someone who can teach him more an convert him.
Once landed, I head to baggage claim and my mom and I are out of there! wooohooo!
Drive our of the airport into the sunny California weather and wonder for the millionth time why I go to school in Idaho.
we grabbed Boudin bakery on the way home.... YUMMY!
Pick up walker which in reality turns into leaving walker with a friend and heading to grab grandma at OC airport and off to rogers gardens( where love of gardening creativity and sophistication all meet in one glorious place) and last minute wedding shopping!
then off to Wendy's to see the cousins,
darling I know!
Well since I am getting married and moving out, I have been officially booted out of my room and I wish I had the picture to show you where the rest of my sad room lies on the couches in the loft, but I am super excited for walker to have his own room, I know he sure is.
Here is what I woke up to the next morning, in what used to be my soft green room,
oh yeah you are seeing that right , the new room is star wars!
well Saturday morning is the whole reason I cam home,
I had my Bridal Shower, and it was fantastic, the food was yummy but the company was a thousands times better! they were all so kind to come and spend some of their morning with me and their gifts were amazing.
After the bridal shower Mary Jane, Jackson, Walker and I headed to the beach
something about sitting here and soaking in the salt air makes me relax and calms my soul, doesn't matter whats going in the world, this is a place where the world stops and a new one begins.
Sunday, my dad and brothers come home, Mary Jane and Grandma head home and Jackson brought home the stomach flu, which I so wonderfully contracted late sunday night.
but hey at least I got to watch this movie
and hang out with these cool kids.
Monday I head back to the airport sick and feeling a bit green, turns out my flight is delayed an hour and 15 and the flight had some fun turbulence, great for me the stomach flu, I was soooooo careful to not touch anything the entire time I was there and in flight. The only I touched was the seat belt but luckily I had hand sanitizer! woohoo for Purell. Connor dropped me off and we saw some fun thins on the way to the airport.
well while I was at the airport I talked to Tara and She is engaged!!! WOOOHOOO!
I am so incredibly happy for her! She is such an awesome girly! Picture: us in Pisa Italy. Thank you Euro Tour for bringing us together!
good bye sunny california
