2.21.16

Today is Aurora’s birthday! She is 13 today! I got to facetime her this morning.
This week has been a little crazy and different!  Monday we were in Utah, Tuesday driving home and then I am sick.  I can’t even tell you how much fun it was to just hang out with Melissa without anything we had to do. I really needed that time with her. I always miss her and I enjoyed it so much! Monday we did a little shopping. It is always fun to find cute baby girl clothes!  First we met our good friend Stewart Kearney for lunch. He served in Lacey, one of our rms. He took Keagan to an in door rock climbing place and the rest of us went shopping.  Poor Chaz had to work. Holidays are his busiest times for selling cars.  That evening Melissa dropped us off and we went to see Dallin Majors in a cute children’s play- Peter Pan, where he was Peter Pan! (Another one of our rms) Drama is his speciality.. it fits his personality. He was awesome! And it was so great to see him afterwards! Zack Bishop and his date and Kearney came with us. It was so fun! Dallin’s response to seeing us all there was priceless. I’m so glad we all went! I love my rms!
We got up at 4 a.m. to drive home. I’m glad we left so early. We missed the Portland traffic and were home by 5:30 p.m. And then back to “Normal” for the rest of the week.
But, I got sick. sore throat and fever. I’m so glad I didn’t get sick in Utah. And that it waited a couple of days after I got home. It has hit me hard. I don’t know the last time I haven’t left the house because of being sick and slept most of the day away. I’m hoping to be better by Tuesday when I have preschool. I was sad to miss church today! I watched a lot of Byu channel and conference talks.
And my phone died! I know.. a little materialistic but I lost all of my contact info and my pictures! Thanks goodness I had saved all my Utah pictures on the drive home! I would have been so sad! The only pictures I totally lost were the last 2 weeks of preschool. I had updated them before that and luckily I write this weekly letter and add pictures to it, so I had pictures from my letters. See what a blessing you guys are to me!
Not much else going on. Next week Keagan is performing for his swing dance at the Wa performing Arts center in down town Olympia. We’re excited to go see that!
  Love you all!
