Well I have obviously finished working this summer, yay! Towards the end it wasn't super tough. It was pretty much all down hill after the northwest fairs. We finished the up north states and traveled down to the southern states, such as, New Mexico, Texas, and California. It was especially nice because I didn't have to find workers for each fair. I already had people set up for the New Mexico fair, then the Texas and California fair had only the bubbles so I didn't need to find anyone. I had Justin and Joe to help and it was very nice. They were so great! They really knew what they were doing after the first couple of fairs. They also took care of me. Kept me calm, safe and happy. It was a fun summer. Now, there were still problems, but having Justin and Joe made things easier. Anyway, I learned a lot over the summer, as I do every summer.

Now, my next adventure. When I came home I had some decisions to make, such as, where to live, if I should work, schooling, etc. I stress out really easy and these decisions made me really stressed out. I'm still deciding on some things, but most of it is coming together. It's amazing if you let things go and trust the Lord and have faith in him, he will help things fall in place.
Right now, I'm still dating my wonderful boyfriend, Justin Turner. It's almost been eleven months and its been an amazing eleven months. He takes care of me, understands me, and puts up with me very well. He is a great man. He worked with me over the summer a little over half way through the season, so now that he is back he is finding a job. He is having success as well. He has always been very blessed with job opportunities. I'm also currently living at my parents. It's not bad, but you know, there are very few who say they like living with their parents. I'm looking for a place to rent that way I can attend school this next term. Contacted my Bishop and he is helping. Such a sweet man. I'm also looking for work, just to fill in time, and I like making money, who doesn't!?! I'm going to start working on some paintings and drawings as well. I'm very excited for that. It'll be an experiment for my paintings since it will be a first time, but it'll be fun!
This upcoming week I'm excited for as well. My little brother Josh is coming home for Thanksgiving. I vistied him on the way home from Texas and it was really nice. He showed me his campus and room, some friends. The college is decent, but lonely. It was nice for both of us. It'll be a lot of fun for him to come home for a few days. Then a couple weeks later is Christmas break, so he will come home again for a few weeks! He also had his Cross Country Championships this last weekend. He took ninth, which was a bummer for him. He just didn't have a good race. Although, he has improved a lot! Cut off a couple minutes on his 8k's and averaging a five minute mile. He is pretty much amazing!
My sister Hillary is doing great. Zoie is already a year old! Times flies fast! Ryan is working a couple jobs and is going back to school for another degree. Shelby is doing great as well. She is working at a sandwich place in town, called Tiffany's. She enjoys it. Our family has always liked to work, whether easy or hard work. Brad is doing great as well, he works at McDonalds. Going to get a promotion pretty soon. He also helps coach football at the high school. He loves that. The team is going to state this next weekend!! They are playing Truckee, should be a good game. Matilda finsihed volleyball. She loved it! She is pretty much the best and is very talented! She is starting basketball soon. She asked me to help her, run drills with her, defense, etc. I was happy that she asked. It'll be fun. Nathaniel finsihed football as well. He enjoyed it. He is also very humble. He knows he isn't the best and is not going to say he is either. But he loves to play. He is also going to start basketball soon. Him and Matilda play one on one occasionally. It's fun to watch. They are so determined and really look up to us, the older siblings. My parents are doing great too. They are excited for the holidays and having the families together.
Well that is life as of lately!
I'll try to do better with posting blogs, but thanks for being patient and reading!
Have a great week!!
