Return to Utah....

Let’s see, I headed back to Utah, on December 27th so I could take two days to travel with the knowledge a bad snow storm may come in. WOW! Was this one adventurous trip home! To start with my car hit 100,000 miles, no worries I got that picture. Then I had a little accident. We were in 2 hours of traffic and only went like 3 miles. Oh, did I mention we were still 80 miles out from Las Vegas when we were dead stopped? Short end of the story is easy, I was not on the road and tried to get back on from trying to pull off, and some road rage woman and her crazy husband tried to bump me out. Yes they came off the road to do that. Needless to say they got my babies driver side mirror. She is all fixed now and well it is still being fought out with the insurances right now. I finally got home Sunday afternoon and was so happy to see my bed; I was gone for so long it was weird to be back. It was kind of lonely in an empty house as well. But no worries I grew to love it and miss my roommate!

After returning to Utah, I have gone back to work, and living life. I was blessed to spend time with Kara, since she invited me to see Dancing with the Starts, at the E-center. It was so much fun, thank you Kara for taking me.

Then on the 1st of the year, I got to have lunch with Erin Simmons. She was in town for the holiday’s to see her family. She is one of the sisters in the Carlsbad Mission that taught me some of the new member discussions and teaching me so much that has helped me in life every since. I have not seen her since I left on my mission, so yes it has been years. It was so great to see her and visit with her. What is better than seeing friends you have not seen in a long time?

Then on the 23rd of January, I was able to take my little (BBBS) to the Grizzly’s Hockey game. It was the BBBS appreciation night and we had a blast. I love that little girl and could not imagine life with out her smile now. The funny part was all the Bigs’ were asked to where those cute little t-shirts… here is a preview of how hot they are. No worries, it was like those gloves they make, one size fits all! Pour Trina is an extra small and all they had was Large, extra large and larger! It was a very fun night.

We also did a sleep over, can I just tell you how two little girls can wipe any one out…Mothers I have no clue how you do it!!!

Here are some pictures:


Now you all have been caught up to where life is now for me… well at least you have the highlights…

Love you all and I promise I will do better in blogging!!!!
