Yay for Easter weekend. It was really good. Friday night me and Troy went to Iggy's with a bunch of his old friends to eat and watch the Jazz game. I had never been there before, and it was really fun. I liked it. :] It's just a bunch of sports fans. :] It was great. I got a scary phone call from Christian, freaking me out about the busyness of the store for the next day. So I was pretty much panicking. I got to Smart Cookie at five Saturday morning, and worked it out however. I went so fast. :] I got out by three, and was able to go to Spanish Fork to watch my sister play softball with my family and Troy. It was really fun. We were just joking around, and watching her play. It reminded me of when we used to go to her games in Lehi. It was a good time. :] I'm hoping that I will be able to attend more of her games this summer, and the end of the school year. We have officially hit the one month mark everyone. In one month, I will be taking my last final. :] I will finish my very first full year of college. Holy, I am such an old woman. Okay, let me finish my weekend update. :] Saturday night, we went to Troy's Mission Reunion, and it was actually really good. It was up in the Avenues in SLC, and I decided I'm living there sometime in my life. The view was absolutely amazing. Amazing. I want to go back up there sometime this summer, and just hang out. I love city lights. It was so pretty, you could see the Temple, and all the downtown lights, it was just great. :] The reunion itself was also great. It was fun for me to meet/see all the people from his mission, and see him see them again. :] We hung out with Logan, and he is great. He just makes me laugh. There was some very random strange man, with bleach blonde hair that was VERY outspoken. All the boys informed me that he was not like this on the mission, and wow. I can't really describe him, but he was quite the character. On the way home, Troy told me all sorts of new stories about his mission, and the people that I met. I am fascinated by his stories, they are so great. I could listen to them for hours. Sunday was Easter. We went to Carol's house, and Troy came along as well. This year was new for me, because I actually had to hide candy, which was a very big first. We did two different Egg hunts, one for the little kids, and one for the big kids. Me and Troy planned to team up with Emily and Kiel, and take out Alyss and Collin and my sisters. We didn't actually carry this plan out, but it was the thought that counted. After all the candy shananagins, we ate dinner and then just hung out. It was good. Troy did good, which was important, because well, our family is crazy. After we left Carol's, we went to Troy's and just hung out. We watched the first baseball game of the season, and the Red Sox won, they beat the Yankees. Yeah, I did just talk about baseball. I was actually a little bit interested in the game. Shocker. :] Overall, it was a very great Easter. :] We dyed eggs Sunday morning, and that was a great time as always. Our family has a Brian Regan obsession, so our eggs slowly started taking on his jokes. Caitlyn does an awesome Brian impression, and we were all laughing really hard. The Easter Bunny gave the three of us some new make-up and candy. I got a book, magnet, candy, and personalized chocolate egg from Craig and Becky, and Troy gave me a book, "Broken Things to Mend" By Elder Holland. I'm very excited to start reading both of them.

This weekend was also General Conference. I got to listen to one and half sessions on Saturday at work, and then in the car on our way to Spanish Fork. It was really very good. My favorite talk,e like always, was Elder Holland. He just is my favorite. :] A lot of the talks centered around families, and parents and the responsibilities thereof. Sunday we listened to the first session together, and then watched half of the second at Carol's house. I love Conference weekend. :] It's my very favorite thing. I like when the Ensign comes out with all the talks in May. I think it's so amazing how connected all the talks are, and how there is always a unifying theme, BUT they never plan for that. All of the speakers write their talks, and there is no collaboration. I love it. :]

Now I'm back to school, and that is not fun. But like mentioned earlier, it is the one month mark. I cannot wait for school to be over. Troy got accepted, so he will be coming up here next semester. :] Congratulations. :]
