The beginnings of my "Funemployment"

So I have now been gone from Jersey for about a month and it is so weird! I definitely miss everybody there a WHOLE LOT! Especially those kids! AHHHH who would have thought I would grow so attached!? Love them! But things have been great here in the motherland. I have obviously been filling my time with lots of fun activities in Provo with the W4 girls and other friends and family in the area. I am so grateful W4 has been so kind to let me stay and invade their apt :) Here are a few of our activities.....

 a little leg wrestling competition...in case you were wondering, yes Kendra won :)

 finally got to meet Cali and Nate's little guy, Hudson! AHH he is adorable!

 Family Party at the football game

 ahhh I was so happy to be there!

 Gorgeous Utah sunsets

 reunited :)

Also since I've been home I spent a little over a week in Meeker, Colorado helping Janae and Brandon with their house. We cleaned, organized, dejunked, to get the house ready for the new baby and of course played. :) I had a great time there and I don't think I burned Janae out too much... :P (sorry! Sometimes I set my mind on something I just keep going until it's done.) Those kids are pretty much adorable and I LOVED that I got to spend so much time with them especially since I've been across the country!

 don't worry I bought them those outfits when I lived Hawaii 3 years ago

 such posers :)

Then back to Utah for more activities....and job searching of course :P

 BYU basketball

 Paint fight!

 Thanksgiving complete with family, friends, baking, and of course a karaoke party

 Helaman was on an intramural football team (Go Gomers!) they did really well. Got all the way to the championship game and then we lost :( such a bummer, but it was so fun to watch!

 Maija was such a good sport and brought the boys out to a few games

 61st ward Christmas party

 BYU Basketball game at Energy Solutions

 Temple Square! AHH so happy to be back! I missed this last year

and SISER SORENSEN! AHHHH seriously made my life! I was so happy to see her! She is the greatest.

Also since then I received a phone call one night from Becca asking me to fly to DC so that I could accompany and help her drive across the country because she is moving back to Utah. I of course agreed and flew out about a week later. Pretty exciting stuff. Before I left for DC I headed to Cedar and watched a little Cedar High basketball and was lucky enough to spend the night with my dear cousin Katie before catching the shuttle early in the morning to head to DC. What a glorious thing! :) I seriously have the greatest family and friends! 

ps stay in tune for updates and pictures of my DC trip and our road trip!
