36 days and Home for the holidays

Well we are at the point where we are counting down the days. 36 days left! I can't wait! It is getting closer and closer! I am home now until the wedding! Got lots of stuff left to do, but we have a lot done too. It is fun, but I think I am too relaxed about everything. Haha. Definitely better than too stressed! Now that I am home I get to do everything with my mom. YAY!!! It isn't fun being away from Jake for so long, but it is okay. I will be married to him soon! :)



Jake finished his second semester of school. 2 down, 39028430938 to go! (That is if he goes to med school). OH JOY! We moved out of our old apartments in Rexburg and moved everything into one apartment in Idaho Falls. We are just down the street from his parents, which will be nice. We got his bed and dresser in there, and tv. And his parents bought us new furniture for the living room. (THANKS SO MUCH!) We have our couch in there
now, and then we have a recliner and t.v. stand coming soon! (For Christmas). It is starting to come together. Jake is living there now by himself. Then I will be there after the wedding. I am so excited! We started hanging up pictures around the apartment, and will hang up the rest when we get wedding pictures back. It is very cute for a newly married couple.




I also got a new Volkswagen Jetta. It is a cute white 4 door manual. I love it! I of course have my Yankees sticker in it. (Jake doesn't like it too much, but he has his Sox sticker in his truck...!) It is fun.

Christmas is coming so fast! I can't believe it is NEXT week! 7 days! Goodness. I haven't done ANY shopping at all! I really need to. I have no idea what I am going to get anyone though. We'll shall see!

My flight back from Idaho was TERRIBLE!! That is how it always is when I am flying anywhere! There is always some delay or something that goes wrong. This time I took a shuttle to SLC into the airport. I got to my flight quite early, but just sat there and watched the tv there. I got to Minnesota and still had a little more than an hour. I took my time to get to my next gate. Stopped and got food (DO NOT get chinese food at an airport!) It was about 20 minutes before we were supposed to board, and I decided to say that "nothing wrong [had] happened this time" and of course, IMMEDIATELY after, they came on the loud speaker and said that we were going to be delayed an hour. Gr. I was so mad! So I sat there a little longer, and then...delayed another 30 minutes. Finally they boarded us, and we started to pull out and the pilot came on and said we weren't going to take off for another 45 minutes! Let me tell you I was very mad, until I realized the flight was practically empty and so I got to lay down on the 3 seats and sleep. :)


It is fun being home with the Rockwell kids. I have been babysitting this week, which is fun sometimes, but they are definitely 2 hands full! Garrett not wanting to EVER be put down and only falling asleep when in the car. Ben who destroys EVERYTHING he sees and likes to beat up Matt. Matthew just likes to follow Ben, I guess he just wants the attention. Ashleigh is a HUGE help, but also can get bossy and just wants attention too. I had her try on her flower girl dress for the wedding, she is so cute! Definitely looks good on her. Yes it is fun cause they are SooOoooOOOOO adorable, but I am okay when they head home and I go take my tylenol. :D GOTTA LOVE 'EM!
