I was checking e-mail and looking at blogs and popping Cadbury Mini Eggs into my mouth one at a time. I love to crunch the candy shell off before letting the chocolate melt in my mouth, mmmmm......good. You know it's a bad thing when you go to get "just one more," and there aren't anymore! Then, to make me feel worse, little Josh walks in and gets all excited to eat some and asks "they're all gone? You ate them ALL?" Yes buddy, mommy was a pig. Need I say more? Yes, I also LOVE girl scout cookies (caramel delites and thin mints). I've been in heaven since we found girl scouts selling them at the local Lowe's, and then Brynn informed me that her new friend from her school class would be selling them at Albertsons. I had to support their cause, and so we took some more cookies off their hands, for their sake, of course. To make a short story shorter, I've eaten enough girl scout cookies to last a while--YUM! I can't wait until next year at this time!
Things here in Vegas are good. We are feeling more at home with every day that passes. We are mostly unpacked (yeah!) and settling into some sort of routine. The other day Josh told me "I want to go back to our real house; our house in Idaho." I guess Jared and I aren't the only ones a little homesick. Life is good though and things are getting easier each day as we become more familiar with people and places. We can't wait to take advantage of some southern Utah camping now that we are so close and a possible trip to Disneyland while the drive is so much shorter than before. Less drive time, fewer arguments, fewer "are we there yet's"--now those are good things indeed!

you just listed my favorites too! I love this time of year because those 3 things come out! (food...yum!) anyway, mike is pretty much cursing jareds company for causing you guys to have to move (jk). It will be great, I just remember looking at you a few weeks ago thinking "how does she do it" and now here I am. I am not looking forward to the first week we have no family in town to help. I hear there are a bunch of blessings that are supposed to come along with a calling like this??? I sure hope so! haha. We miss you and hope you get settled quickly and find your spot in the ward and in life. It will happen before you know it and you will be so glad for your adventure. Love you tons!
Those Cadbury mini eggs are truly evil I have decided. They are the equivilent to Lays Chip for me... I can't eat just one!
Well, I am so glad you are adjusting okay. It does take time but it does help that you are mostly unpacked..yeah! That is one of the worst parts for me :) Okay, this is the deal, when you go to Disneyland, you MUST stop by and see me. We are only 114 miles from the California border! Let's promise to get together soon!
I know what you mean about these delicious little treats. I ran out a few days ago and was begging Chris to go to the store with me late last night just to get these. He wouldn't go so I had to talk my Mom in to picking up a bulk bag from Sam's Club while she was there last night :)
I'm so jealous of the warm weather. I read on FB you had taken a nap on the tramp. I wish!
Take care!
