Only a month later...

I know it's been a month since I last posted. It makes me feel better to know that I'm not the only one falling behind, though. I do still need to try to keep everyone caught up a little better.

In the last month...SO much has happened!! There are some things that I'm not quite ready to discuss here, even...so feel free to ask me about it if you talk to me...lol. For now? Here's the gist of the last month:

March 13 - 16 I spent in St. George celebrating Levi's birthday. It was SO much fun!! We had 2 parties. The first was a family party with Ashie, Andrew, and Adam. Any chance I get to see those kids is just absolutely amazing. I always worry about the time we were apart...and I think that they'll forget or not like me. Luckily, they seem to still enjoy being around me at least some, hehe. The 2nd party was on Saturday for Levi's friends. It was pretty cool, I was able to help design some stuff for the party. I was able to put together some candy wrappers for favors as well as a Transformer's Bingo. Rhonda also put together a WAY cool Optimus Prime cake that I was able to help frost. It turned out really cool :-)

Thurs March 20 I was able to make my 2nd trip to The Melting Pot. Man, it was just as good the 2nd time as it was the 1st. I went with Lys and Dan, and we were able to talk lots. It was great, because Dan and I were able to restart our friendship. We had stopped talking for a while (SUCH a long story), but after clearing up a few things, we were able to talk and stuff again. It was great because I really missed his friendship.

Sat March 22 I met up with Julie and Roger at my mom's house. We dyed eggs, and had dinner. It was a lot of fun. Then again...any time that I get to spend with my Dominic...I'm happy, hehe.

Sun March 23 was Easter. Lys and I hung out all night because her best friend that is a guy got married that night. It was crazy. Not much else I can say about that, heh.

Things were a blur for about a week. Trying to get stuff ready with work for all kinds of stuff.

April 1 - 2 I was in Mesa for an eBay In Person event. That was actually fun. I had to deal with the guy who caused the biggest problem during the Q&A session...but he left happy. It was GREAT! Such a good feeling to show what I do every day. I was also able to hang out with Debi, Emily, Zach, and Alyssa. We went shopping for a few hours and grabbed some lunch before I had to head back to the airport. I'll have to post some pictures later :-)

April 5 - I was able to attend the morning session of conference at the conference center. That was amazing! I was about 10 rows back in the very center. Such a cool place for a solemn assembly! I do have to admit that with the resemblance to Grandpa...it was tough being that close to President Monson. The resemblance is even more amazing now that his hair isn't quite as red. I cried when he entered and left the room. It was such a great experience, though.

April 6 - I was at Jen's for the morning session of conference. We had breakfast, then played some Settlers of Catan in between sessions. I love family time. I also went to Lindsey's for dinner. I LOVE her new house!! I'm extremely jealous.

April 9 - I headed out to Hawaii to meet up with my parents and Sharon and Stan. That has been a LOT of fun so far. I'm looking up some stuff for us to go do. It might be too late to get into too much...but it was such a last minute decision to go...I dunno. I don't have any money, so it looks like it'll just be a lot of reading and relaxing time. If the clouds would go away...I might even be able to get a tan before coming back, hehe.

So...that's the last little bit with me. Lots going on...not much to say. I'll try to update more (but everyone else needs to, also!!)
