Dear sister Kristina,
Well, another letter written from my phone. I'm getting better at this. I just got back from Steve and Carolina's, their newly renovated house. I'm staying at their old house, but it feels so weird since they're not here. Dakota is staying here with me, but I haven't seen her much. I got to meet Downing, her fiance. He seems really nice and they're very happy. They were working on invitations tonight. I sat out on the back porch with Steve and Carolina and enjoyed the fabulous view and the great weather. They just got back from a trip to Spain with the byu basketball team. They got to stay in the most luxurious places in Barcelona and Valencia. Steve says it was the best vacation he's ever been on. That's saying a lot. They said to say hi.
Just in case you didn't get to hear about the BYU football game, Tanner manghum got to play because Taysom Hill got hurt, broke his ankle and is out for the season. With one second left in the game, and BYU behind, Tanner threw a hail Mary pass into the end zone for the winning touchdown. BYU won and it was amazing and now he's going to be the starting qb. Next week BYU plays BSU. This will be interesting.
So how has your first week of training been going? I know you'll be a great trainer. You have natural leadership qualities. You've been prepared for this your whole life. I hope it's been fun for you.
I'm here in Provo by myself because at first grandpa was going to be coming here, but he says he's feeling too weak these days. So he's not coming after all. But I'm also here because Marcela flew in as a surprise for Sean. I've been helping her plan it and boy was he surprised when he saw her. It was good. Marcela is going to help with all the wedding stuff, the first look photo shoot, decorating Noah's, etc then she's driving back to eagle with us for the weekend just to hang out. She's so fun and she's just so excited to be able to drink diet Dr pepper again.Ha ha she's also buying clothes for Mara for her mission.starting tomorrow Marcela will be staying with us here at Carolina's too.
Alex and Savannah have been at our house this past weekend. Alex's friends Jeff got married to a meridian girl and he was in the wedding.So he came up with two of his friends and it worked out great cuz now I didn't have to find a place for the girls to stay while dad was at work today. In the morning, they'll pack up the house and drive to mtn home and pick up dad.then they'll drive both cars to Utah.
Next week I should have lots of pix for you.
Leah got released as mia maid president today. She said she was kind of sad about it and felt like she wished she had been able to do more for the mia maids.but Leah will be a laurel in a couple months, so that was inevitable.
Well, that's about all the news I can think of. I spent the day with Kirk and Sarah and Addie. When Sarah asks Addie where is nana, she looks over at me and points. I love it. She's so much fun and is actually starting to run now which is so cute.
I haven't been in Provo for quite a while and there's some changes around town like that big new thing at the mall that they're building. It's huge. Not done yet, but I couldn't believe how big it was.
I hope you are well. We will think of you often this week, but wouldn't want you any place else. I love having a missionary daughter!
Love you very much,
Mom xoxo
