Boy oh boy! I miss Rexburg more than I could say! I love my family and I have LOVED being home and seeing all of my friends, but I am ready to get busy. I have 1 year and 8 months (almost to the day) till I turn 21. I want to get all the schooling done I can before I leave on my mission so I can come back and GET MARRIED! Haha.
A lot has happened since I last blogged. He's in Arizona and loving it! He had a hard time with his companion at first, but things have gotten so much better! He kind of asked me to be his girlfriend... more details later. I've started writing my other missionary friends, which is a blast! I got a letter from South Africa the other day! So great! I re-fall in love with him every time I read his letters. He really is my best friend! OH! And we're reading the Book of Mormon together! It's day 12 today and I'm already a day behind. Haha. But I'm going to get caught up today. After 50 days, I sent him a list of 50 things I love about him. He said that morning he woke up and wrote a whole page in his journal about the things he loves about me and then he got my letter! How great! We think alike. :D
I visited his mom yesterday. It was so fun! She and I made cookies for him. That was fun. I'm learning more about him from her as well. I love it! Today is my last day in Washington for 8 months! Crazy! I'll be at almost a year when I come home. I think it will help time go by faster, though. And I am so excited! While I was packing, I came across his cologne. I decided to spray his bear cuz I hadn't done it in quite a while. I almost cried! I miss his smell. It brought back so many memories! I love it!
I am officially happier than I have been in a LONG time! I'm growing in all different aspects of my life and I am growing closer to my best friend, my eternal companion! I love it!
