Well, we officially have reached the one month point! From here on out, it will be easy. We reached the top of the hill about two weeks ago and now we're just speeding down! Can't wait to have him home.
Until then I have lots of things to do to keep myself busy! I made a goal to get my quilt done by Monday, and as Monday is right around the corner I'm thinking I might not get it done! The tension on my machine isn't right, so it put a little bit of halt in my sewing project. I'm planning on taking it into Joann's this weekend and seeing if they can't fix it so I can get my blanket done by Monday! I don't like to miss a deadline.
Good NEWS!
My Dad got a job in Utah! My family will be joining us up here during the first week in August. I'm so excited! I spent a few hours last night looking at houses for them! He'll be working in Salt Lake City, so they're looking for something around there. I think they're going to come up to look at houses sometime in between now and then so I'll have some company! I'm really excited. I don't know how much of me they'll see since I'm at work/school from 8a.m.-7p.m. and they'll be looking at houses all day, but we shall see.
All the kids are excited to come up here and make a change. Corbin might stay in California for the Fall Semester though to finish up his AA, though. So, he's not too happy about that. But, in the long run, it will be best for him to just get it all done and transfer to BYU.
I think that's all the information I've got right now. Until next time!

Happy 4th!
For the fourth of July this year, I went to my friend, Camille's, house and had a delicious BBQ. It was so much fun to just talk and laugh and have fun (and eat BBQ! I've been craving it so much lately).
I brought some cookies...BUT they were supposed to be a cheesecake. Haha. Saturday morning I got up leisurely and then started making the cheesecake. I'm going to blame it on the altitude :) but it totally burnt on top. LAME! Especially since I talked up this cheesecake and how delicious it was to Camille. So,
Saturday afternoon I apologized to Camille and asked her if I could just bring some cookies. They were good, and a hit, as apetizers while we waited for the BBQ to be done.
Camille made a DELICIOUS apple pie, so it all evened out. We had a yummy cake/pie, so we probably didn't need to have two. :)
It was so beautiful outside that I came home and opened all the windows and turned the fans on! It's so nice to have some fresh air in the house.
Josh Update:
We have five weeks left! Then, Josh will be back! I'm so excited. We've reached the top of the mountain, and we're on the downhill for sure, now! I can count the weeks on one hand! Josh is having so much fun, and he's so looking forward to going back (with me next time). :)
To celebrate the 4th Josh went to The Hard Rock Cafe. We argued a bit about the 4th, though. Josh is about 10 hours ahead of me here in Provo. So, his Sunday/4th came faster than mine. :) He was telling me how he was going to go celebrate the 4th. I told him that the 4th of July is an American Holiday and he had to wait until it was the 4th in America before he could celebrate. Haha. He didn't listen ;) I think he enjoyed getting to go out to The Hard Rock Cafe, though.
Sorry, no pictures for today...I don't have any!
Until next time...
