I think I'm NEVER going to get use to my kids going away...not for sleepovers, not for ball camps, NOT for MISSIONS.....and NOT FOR SCHOOL!!!! We took Josh to Utah State today. This is his apartment. It was decent enough...I just want him to be WARM and FED and HAPPY!!! There are 6 guys and only ONE shower...in girl terms that would mean murder. We got his groceries stocked up, his cleaning supplies...but I just wanted to stock up the COME HOME EVERY WEEKEND...I know its silly. I know it. But I still feel that way. Such a beautiful perfect child. He JUST got home, I am so not ready to share. The great news is that Preston and Jeremy and their families will gobble him up and help him with anything. I think I will be "sleeping over" with the nieces ALOT this next year.
It was Jeremy's birthday December 18th and Preston's on the 6th of January so we all went out to CELEBRATE at AGGY's before I left the boy alone and carless. I LOVE my family. I mean, I really really really really LOVE them...Graham is talking up a storm, doesn't like ice cream until it melts because it is too cold. The girlies just live in their own world together making me wish I had known the intimacy and sweetness of a cousin. Jeremy is getting RIPPED with his dedication to P90X--he got to dinner a bit late because he went to check on a baby he delivered to a 16 year old girl earlier today that he was worried about. Kori gave me her latest book list (gotta check out CRYSTAL CASTLE. Talk about buffed...tiny, sweet, LITTLE Jeremi is now adding the Paleo diet to her health and fitness journey. Preston ordered a beer to celebrate the Birthday and just loves me even though they all know I'm nuts. Josh will be in great hands. I just wanted them to be in MY HANDS...guess I'm going to have to look in Logan for some real estate.
We came home from the long day to Rueben (Spencer's friend--ours too) bringing his date in to HOT TUB...WITHOUT SPENCER even being home. London and Tanner in the basement building with the poker chips and cards, Sam and many other friends having some video game tournament, Michael bringing a darling red head home to watch a movie....I'm so glad they are all here. But it still doesn't make up for Josh NOT being here. Yep. ICKY WEIRDNESS.

Hey it was so fun to see you guys! I'm sorry you had to leave Josh up here in freezing cold Logan.
The book is GLASS Castle by Jeannette Walls.

I would recognize Old Farm anywhere! I lived there for a while. Only place in Logan I liked. :)
