It Never Ends

Where have I been you ask? I've been crazy busy okay?!

Seriously though, life doesn't ever slow down. Not for a second. But, as crazy as life has been, I've somehow found a way to love every single second of it.

There isn't really much that I can catch you up on specifically, but let's see what I can come up with.

In the last couple months I feel like so little and yet so very much has changed. Even though I have lived in Provo for almost a year (Yeah, it's been that long), I feel like I am making so many new connections with my family. I love Sunday's when I get to go to Herriman and have dinner with the Hansen's and the Pearce's. I love playing with the little ones and you know what? I LOVE how much they love me. I walk into the door and Kenna, Cole, Izzy, and the other little tykes are telling me where to sit because it's their turn or they want to sit by me. I don't know why they think I'm that cool, but I love them for it.

I've also grown close to Rachel and Rebecca. Not that I wasn't close to them before, but I feel like I know them on a much deeper level, and when Ray left on her mission yesterday, it was hard to see her go. (Though, I am jealous that she was be living in New Zealand for the next 18 months).

Not only that, but both families have made me feel so welcome. I'm invited to everything and I love knowing that if I were to ever need anything, they wouldn't hesitate to help.

On the other side of things... I miss home a lot. Especially recently. There have been many times where I've just wanted to up and move back to STG and work at PF for the rest of my life. But, I know... I know that I am supposed to be here. To go through and experience the things that I am.

That being said: I go home a lot. Like almost once a month recently. Sometimes I feel silly because I'm sure people notice that I am always in STG, but I love it there. Definitely a lot more than when I lived there.

With so much going on, I don't know where the time has gone. I can't believe it's already November. It's crazy! It's going to be 2014 before we all know it!

So much has changed in the past couple years. So much. And I know I dwell on things like that a lot, but I can't help it. Everything seems to be connected somehow. From the good. To the bad.
