Fun. times

OM2B =) days 767 - 773.  Friday, March 23rd happiness - Thursday, March 29th happiness.  

Friday, March 23rd happiness:  Fun. concert with this fun group.  Brian went too.  He was just waiting in the car at this point.  We also picked up Cody Miner on the way.  We had to drive down to Tucson, but it was totally worth it.

 Since we were in Tucson, we HAD to stop at eegee's for Brian.
 Next stop:
I was glad that I got to go with Sheri.  She makes everything better!  I think she looks so happy here, because she had just goosed an old man.....on accident, of course.
 One of my favorite concerts of all time.  It was so good.

 Saturday, March 24th happiness:  This morning, Brian and I attended Cathi's mother's funeral.  I didn't find out about it until last night.  Thank goodness Sheri let me know.  I would have hated to miss it.  I love Cathi and I wanted to be there to show support.  


It was a lovely service, I felt the spirit so strongly.  It made me grateful for the gospel and for the knowledge that families can go on forever.  And that is a happy thought.


Tonight, I caught "O Brother Where Art Thou" on t.v.  I LOVE that movie and it always reminds me of Jared.  I'm not sure why.


Sunday, March 25th happiness:  Today we went and visited Brian's grandmother.  It was her birthday party.  80th, I think.  A lot of his family that we don't get to see very much were there.  It was nice to spend some time with Brian's family.  We don't spend as much time with them, so it is always good to get together.
 Monday, March 26th:  The last day of spring break.  I have to go back to work tomorrow.  Oh, spring break, how I will miss you.  I have enjoyed your lazy days of sleeping in and spending time with Joe and cabin trips and concerts and all of the good times we have had together.  


Today's happiness was one more day of being lazy.  I love it.


Tuesday, March 27th happiness:  Tonight the young women had softball.  I enjoyed hanging out and watching their games and cheering them on.  And I loved hanging out and chatting with the other leaders.  They are some really fantastic ladies.


Also, the young men cooked us dinner to enjoy after the games.  Good times.


 Wednesday, March 28th happiness:  I spent this afternoon reading.  A lot.  Why do I always wait until the last minute to read the book for book club?  Oh, right, because I work and I don't have time for things like reading anymore.
I was happy today to get to read.  It is something that I really enjoy.  And even though I don't have much time for it any more.  I really appreciate when I do get to read.


Also - I finished in time for book club, so woo hoo!


Thursday, March 29th happiness:  M.E.L.S. - aka- book club!  Tonight we met at Kristin's house.  It was nice to get out and hang with the girls.  I don't get to do that very often.  It is nice to know that at least once a month, I will get to go out and hang out with some really fun, fantastic people.


One of the things that we do at M.E.L.S. is that we bring food that ties into the book.  One of the foods in the book was gingerbeer.  And somebody actually found some.  So, I tried gingerbeer tonight (no alcohol!).  Not as good as ginger ale.  I kept sipping at it and halfway through had to stop myself because why do I keep sipping if I don't like it?  Maybe I hope it will get better?


All in all, a fun night.


Happy Day!
