Life

Justin started his new job. I think he likes it. We're excited for the business management work experience, health benefits, salary, and international ties. We are now thinking of moving to Lindon. (I knew you were waiting for me to say China. Maybe someday.)

My dad is staying with us right now. He has a lot of back problems and I'm helping to take care of him. He actually takes care of Jaime much more than I take care of him. He enjoys getting to spend time with her. His and my mom's divorce is now final. It seems a strange end to a 34 year long marriage.

Jaime is sick. I am too, but it's much easier to take care of myself than it is to take care of someone else. Unlike me, Jaime is explosively sick. I've never cleaned up so many disgusting things in my motherhood career. Yay for looking at the future, with multiple children getting sick all at one time.

Justin's birthday was two days ago. He had a party on Saturday and his birthday was spent at his first day on the job. Awesome birthday present? I think so. God does a good job.

Hello. :)
First of all, I would like to thank Heather for posting that list... hehehe

Second, I would like to tell you something I thought about today on my bike ride home. :O
AFTER I tell you that I have never experienced riding into the wind, and it makes things rather difficult.... along with tires that need to be pumped up... I should do that.

So ANYWAYS!
This may be very obvious to everyone else, but yeah. Whatever.
I was riding my bike up the hill to the MTC from Campus, and I realized that the temple didn't look that far away. And that once I got to the temple, ( I always mark my way home by the MTC), that the ride would be downhill, and significantly easier. Then I thought about my ride TO school. Same thing. Once I got to the temple, it's all a downhill ride. Not downhill bad, downhill as easy. Strange thought... Both ways I go, after I reach the temple, my ride is so much easier. It's like a mile marker. I just have to get to the temple, and then my ride will get a little easier. :)

That's all. I thought it was nice. I had something else to add in about riding my bike up the hill instead of walking, but I don't really remember it. If I remember it WELL, I'll consider posting it for you.
Love you.

Christmas crazy

For all of you, like me who seem to be so confuzzed about the rotation, I post Liz's original fom 2008.

Sunday.

I LOVE SUNDAY!!!!!
That's all I have to say to you all today. It has just been a pretty great day. I sang in church with a group of girls and it turned out very nice. :) And the hymns for Sacrament Meeting I think were pretty good. And we are pulling together the Christmas program. I love it when people volunteer to sing!!! Hopefully we'll get a violin or a flute in there. Tell me if you have any suggestions!!!
I got to talk to a friend.
And I get to go to family tonight!!!
I love you all!!! Once again!
I hope your Sabbath has been as grand as mine has so far!

How are you running?

1 Corinthians 9:24

24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

Yes I blogged this during sacrament meeting, but felt impressed to share this thought with you. We are all running, but are we advancing to an appropriate goal? Are we the "one" that will receive the prize?

Love

I just wanted to let you all know that I miss you all so much. And I love you immensely.
I love being able to spend time with all these people here in Utah that I have NEVER seen. :P okay never is kind of extreme, but it's not that far off... I know a lot of you are jealous. Those of you who ya know, don't live here.
But I miss the rest of you SO FREAKING MUCH!!!!!!
I'm very excited about the prospect of seeing you. It's going to make my week go by very slow or very fast. I hope fast.
I love you all tons. <3 and Thank you for being my family. thank you for being you.

I'm gonna starve...
