Today's One Minute Writer: Write about how the weather affects you emotionally, or recall a weather-related memory.
This was my reply:
I remember one time when we were up in Priest River, ID (where my Mom grew up) and my brother Stephen and I made a igloo in the snow up there. We played outside in the snow all day long and it was so much fun! When we were kids our neighbors use to pick us up and pull us behind their car in sleds, we loved hookie bobbing!
Whoa! 1 minute goes by so fast! Try it, haha. There is SO much more that I could say just about SNOW memories! Oh well, that's the fun of it only saying as much as you can in one minute.
I realize I never really told you about last weekend. My cousin Brett was in town so we got to hang out with he and Mikalla on Thursday and Friday night after work. Thursday we went to Jon and Gina's house (my cousins) and ended up visiting until midnight. I love chatting with my family! I am so grateful to have such wonderful relationships with all of my cousins. On Friday night after work Brett and Mikalla came over. We had a lot of fun playing with his new Apple computer. I love it when people get mac's, it is so exciting to me! haha.
We had a lot of fun on Saturday. Our work Christmas party was early in the morning at Costco. We showed up and got $75 in Costco Cash, each! yay! At the party they had crepes and breakfast burritos, which we really enjoyed. Then we just had time to shop around. I wasn't feeling well so I headed home and took a hot bath (which I already wrote about) and Kory went to work. I met him at work a little bit later. We were able to go to the Provo temple that night. It was such a good experience. We left the temple both feeling very uplifted and happy. Then we went home and watched Elf! I love that movie.
On Sunday we went to church at our new ward again. We LOVE our new ward! They are SO nice and SO welcoming! We got to meet our new bishop and Kory participated in sacrament meeting. Needless to say, we're jumping right in! There are a lot of outgoing, cute, married couples. Its so different than a singles ward, its neat to have a different experience. After church we headed up to Heber to go see Celeste and Brian and family. We were up there for a few hours visiting. I LOVE visiting family. Its fun to visit Kory's family because I enjoy getting to know them better and better. Celeste is so much fun. We're glad that we got to go hang out with all of the Pearson's for a few hours. Brian's family is so sweet, both of his parents came and gave me a hug and welcomed us. We loved it. We headed back home and then the Elder's Quorum came over to get to know us...I know, awesome huh?
Basically we had a really great weekend. Anytime we get to visit with lots of family, go to the temple, watch a good movie, and feel welcomed by our new ward...good weekend.
And now it's Friday again! Yay! Kory is taking his last two finals today. Pray for him!
