An actual post... finally...

Okay, I have posted a lot of pictures probably making ya'll bored to tears. California was awesome... I literally felt like I was in heaven. Every window had a view of the ocean, the smells were amazing, the weather was awesome, the rest was very much needed. I hadn't seen my sister's kids in over a year. I hadn't seen my brother, his girlfriend, and their daughter in almost 2 years. It was really great to see them all. I honestly can't believe how fast the kids grow between visits. My mom and I brought my sisters 3 kids back to Idaho with us for 2 1/2 weeks. We drove back on Monday... the 14 hour drive wasn't fun at all... but it has been fun to have them here so far. They live in Sacramento, so it isn't easy for them to just ride bikes and play with neighbor kids, so it is a treat for them to come to small little Sugar City. They have spent a lot of time outside playing.

I am suffering from my horrible sunburn! I can't be outside without crying in pain. I am hoping by Monday it is feeling better because I want to take the kids to the splash park and zoo and bear world and all those fun things.

My classes have started up. Well, I am actually only taking one class right now. Human Sexuality... yeah, so far I'm struggling. I am so not open when it comes to these topics, but I am trying.

Well, I have an assignment due in like 2 hours, so I better get it done. I'll write more soon.
