I'm So Grateful for Family

So life has been interesting for me lately. Shaye is out in California selling alarms and I stayed here in Utah to pack up our apartment and work through the rest of this month. The lease on our apartment isn't up until the end of May so we decided it would be best for me to stay and work since we still have to pay rent this month and I could make a little more money. It has been kind of rough at times cause I get scared easily but I must say that I have done better than I thought I would. Thankfully I have such a wonderful family that are so kind to take care of me and let me hang out with them when I'm lonely. Last weekend I was able to hang out with my aunts Natalie and Kristi after Natalie's baby shower which was so fun and now this weekend I headed down to spend the weekend with my cousin Brittany. It felt just like old times when we were kids. Brittany and I have always been "best friend cousins" we used to spend a couple weeks together in the summer when we were kids. I would go up and stay at her house and she would come down to visit me in Kanab. She is the best and I am so so grateful that I could stay with her this weekend. We had so much fun laughing and chatting up a storm! She is a wonderful cook and was so nice to keep me fed for a few days. Of course we did some great shopping with my wonderful aunt Tye, (Brittany's Mom) as well as my other cousin Lacee. We had a fun girls night where we watched no other than "Twilight" and had some good brownies and ice cream. Also my "best missionary friend" Jenny Willis also joined us for our fun girls night and ended up staying at Brittany's with me since her roommate was out of town and she was home alone too. So we just had a good old sleep over! Brittany's poor husband was probably hating life but he was a good sport:) I'm so grateful for great family and friends, you guys are the best!

Here is Jenny, Brittany and I after church on Sunday. Thanks again Brittany, you are the best!

On Saturday I was also able to see some more of our family at the State Baseball game that Kanab was playing. Shaye's sister Jennica was so nice to call and invite me to come to watch Shaye's little brothers in the State baseball game with her, Larry and Kelly. It turned out to be the most exciting baseball game I've ever seen. One minute Kanab was down 12 to 2 and things were looking pretty ugly, then all the sudden they came back and scored 10 runs in one inning. It was so fun to watch and it was fun to be there to see Kanab win state. Shaye's brother even was apart of the winning play. It was tied 13 to 13 and Brendon was last up to bat. He hit the ball and the kid on third was able to slide home just before being tagged by the catcher and they won the game!

Also I got to see my little sis, Miss Emily after the game. Em's is a senior so that was a good way to end the year with an exciting win in the state game.

Here's Jennica and Brendon after the game. I was sad that Shaye couldn't be there cause he would have loved it. So I'm glad I went to represent for him:) Thanks for inviting me Jenn:)

Good job Kanab what an awesome game! Go Cowboys!
