A Lot Going On

The past few weeks have been pretty busy, and this week is no exception. As I'm typing, my sis-in-law, Michelle, is in labor. So I'll have a new nephew, Tavin, before the day is out. Her water broke last night, so they'll only let her go so long before they'll take him. Unfortunately, I don't get to see him until next month, but that's okay . . . only 3 weeks away. . . YEAH!!! Then my brother, Tim, gets home from his mission in Argentina tomorrow. . . again, I don't get to see him for 3 weeks, but I can talk to him for the first time in 2 years. . . i was never able to talk to him when he called since we live out here. Last week (I'm not exactly sure when) my bro-in-law Chris got engaged to Jessica. . . YEAH!!! I'm really excited about that one. . . no longer the only girl (other than my mom-in-law and Toma, but that's a little different) plus I love Jess. She's awesome! John has been working a lot lately, which I don't love. . . I tell him just about every day that I don't like his job. . . but I can see that he's much happier at this job than his last, and there are some other benefits, so I deal with it for now. I joined a book club from our Relief Society and hosted the meeting last week. It was fun to just chill with other ADULT women and talk about the book (you know me, I hate reading (yeah, right) and about life in general. It was really nice to get to know some of the other women in the ward and branch. This week we have Enrichment, so that will be nice too. . . I'm slowly finding ways to escape by "myself" for a little at a time. . . it's nice to have a break. Speaking of having a break, I'm going to be in Utah for 3 weeks in April. I'm really excited. We're all flying out on the 7th. John has to come back on the 14th, but Toma and I are staying until the 29th. I'm sure we'll miss John, but it will be nice to have a long visit with my family and friends . . . and get to see my new newphew and my bro!!!!! Yep, I'm excited.
