Last week of Summer!!

What a week it has been! Monday and Tuesday i finished working up at Big 5 and at Russ's. It was way easy to leave Big 5 but not Russ.... It was really hard for me to leave him! He was so kind and gave me an additional 50 bucks in my last paycheck! When we said goodbye I'm pretty sure his eyes were getting watery. I held it together and told him i would gave him soon to make sure that he was getting taken care of (he know was having a nurse come in each day to care for him since i would be gone). Before i left i gave him a present to open when i left. I put our picture together in a picture frame and i gave him A BOOK OF MORMON!!!! It was the scariest thing ever! It was my first one i gave away and hopefully not my last! We have talked religion before and i have shared with him a lot of what we believe. I know he has no interest and earlier i sent the missionaries over to him, they didn't tell him i did, and Russ wouldn't even let them in. But i left him a letter too, telling him how much this summer meant to me and how much he has changed my life. I told him i was giving him a Book Of Mormon because it is so important to me and it makes me happy. I told him that since he was important to me then why wouldn't i share it with him!? I then shared my testimony to him of God's love and families. I hope maybe it did something to him or even maybe in the spirit world when he dies, it will help him accept the gospel easier. I left and got in my car and balled like a baby hahaha.

     

 

 

I then spent the day, Tuesday, with my family out on the river. It was beautiful and i loved it! We got our wake boards out for the first time that summer! Sad huh!? But we did and i was surprised of how

much i remembered! The last i wake boarded was like two summers ago! So i was proud of myself with how i did. I did have one bad wipeout and lets just say that i had water shoot up my butt so hard

that i would take a face plant any day instead of that!

The next morning  i was all packed up and i left for Logan with my parents! I also had a hard time saying goodbye to my sibs. I think i figured it out. I get super attached to people that i love and when i have to leave and say goodbye, its REALLY hard for me! Every time! But i guess that's a good quality sometimes, shows i care. But can be a problem hence i get attached.... haha But we got there Wednesday evening and stayed with my grandparents. Both of them are doing well. Grandma still fighting her cancer and grandpa just healing up from having a pace maker put in his heart.

 

Morning i left for Logan! Last pic with these two! <3

 

 

 

 

 

The next day, Thursday i spent time shopping and getting things ready to move in the next day. Just spent the day with my parents! It was nice! Then early next morning we got up and i moved all my stuff in at my new apartment! My parents could only stay for a little bit because they had to get on the road and get to Reno by 2pm the next day to make it to one of my cousins wedding! It was hard saying goodbye also but not too hard because it happened so fast and i didn't have time to think about it cause i went right back to working on unpacking. So i guess that's good. lol. But i finally have everything moved in and met all the roomies. I live with five other girls and i know two of them already. Living with Aimee and Colette and the new roomies are Hilary, Alicia, and Alexa. I think its going to be a fun year!

 

 

 

 

And then Saturday i went to Bear Lake with Aimee and her family and got burnt to the T but loved spending the day on the beach and boating before school start! But best part ever of that day was getting in the tube with Aimee's grandma! What a hoot! She screamed the whole time and i died laughing! Best thing ever! Super funny!

 

Best Friend!

Tubing with Aimee's grandma!
