This last week was crazy.
I have been struggling to find balance since coming home and starting school.
Between a new major, a new job, new roommates,
and trying to stay up with new habits like scripture study, temple attendance,
staying social, getting good grades,
last week it all just sort of caught up with me.
I was honestly a little worried when some of my mission friends suggested we go to Boise
for Hna Boer's homecoming talk.
The truth is, I knew Hna Boer, but not that well.
I worried that I would loose sleep, and come home feeling more stressed then when I left,
but my yellow personality just couldn't resist it.
It seemed like the whole universe was against me going.
Lots of homework,
really tired,
scheduled to work
a test I was worried I wouldn't get done in time
Dayna was born and Cristina got really sick
so on, and so forth
But Saturday morning we were Boise bound.
I started the trip off joking (but also serious) that if you had told me a month ago (let alone on my mission) that one day I would have gone on a road trip with Hna Tippets Elders Brackett, Fearn,
Lundberg and Burgeson, I would have laughed.
Most of them I barely even knew on my mission.
But out random, little group packed into the explorer and we were off.
The next 48 hours flew by so quickly.
We saw a little of this.
and way too much of this:
#breezycrack #dempantsdoe
We laughed. A LOT.
Good friend moves.
Bad friend moves.
Deep talks.
Wilson recited poetry
Chismes. So much cheese.
And some of the most genuine compliments ever.
Idaho was flatter and... uglier than I expected.
"I support that... you ungirdle those loins"
I literally almost stepped on this dogs head on the way down the stairs.
A quality time with some quality people
