New Family Picture

We had a monumentally busy extended weekend, leading up to Monday when we dropped Brent off at a hotel in SLC to fly out from there for Basic. Contemplating it all enough to write about it is not something I care to do right now, but I felt like I should say something.

I've been pretty exhausted for most of this week. I am quitting my job, which is an unexpected relief. Unexpected because it's been a great job and I'm leaving (for several reasons) a lot sooner than I actually expected. But I'm relieved and actually kinda trunky; now that I know I'm leaving I'm ready to be done and move on. I am going to enroll Zariah in a bunch of summer community classes and take her hiking and maybe even camping this summer as much as I can. I just want to do TONS of fun Utah summer stuff to keep us busy.

In other really good news; Brenda is in town! Yea! She has Fabulous timing to boot. She came just in time to catch Brent and get us a new family picture! Woohoo! She is so awesome in so many ways, and I'm so glad she's here.

What a GREAT picture...and awesome timing! glad to hear things are moving forward and going well. Soak up all of the Utah outside stuff to do while you can! Loni - I just have to say how amazing you are. You have such a positive outlook on life and enjoy moments for what they are - I've always admired that about you and in the short time we spent together I learned a lot from you. xoxo enjoy your one on one time with Z!

I know you miss your hubby and I know how hard it is to be apart. I love you and everything will be okay. Call me if you want to cry...or camp. I'm good for both and I need an excuse to come to UT.
