So my sister is coming home today! Today at 5:55 PM, I will see my sister, Katie, face-to-face for the first time in 18 months. A year and a half... She was serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, joining, the thousands of missionaries in the world, and my 4 brothers, and my dad. I was thinking the other day, how crazy it is that I haven't seen her in so long! I'm so excited I can't even contain it! But I'm glad. I'm glad her and all my brothers and my dad all sacrificed 2 (or 1 1/2 years) to invite others to come unto Christ. If it were for any other reason, I'd be sad. I mean...I HAVEN'T SEEN MY SISTER IN A YEAR AND A HALF. But I'm glad it's because she was on a mission. I'm happy. Can you tell? P.S. Does anyone know why my blog paraphraphs all mush into one? I press enter and separate them, but they don't separate, unless I make it a bulleted list? I'm so confused.

mowing. As in grass. I know, it's hard to believe, but it's actually not that bad. I get to be out in the sun and get tan, tan, tan... I don't have to do housework. I get paid...it's more money than I've ever had. I'm getting a head start on my Troylairs trip for next year! It's kinda like driving a Go Kart...only slower...still, it's kinda entertaining. A shower never felt so good... I get time alone...to think about whatever I want. I can sing at the top of my lungs (most of the time) and nobody...including myself, will hear me! YAHOO! It's kinda cool to see all the different headstones. You get to figure out how old the person was when they died or things like that. I usually hate math, but you gotta do somethin'! You get to look at all the unique names and then think about names you want to name your future children. (This is the real reason why I wanted to post this! :)) Here's my list: Girls: Lilliana May (Lilly...favorite) Da...

Life has been un-bloggable lately. My nephews are coming over today...so I will have pictures...definitely. So wait just a bit longer. Sorry!

Yesterday I walked into my brother's room. It wasn't empty. It still had little reminders of my brother's existence. However, his existence is no longer in our home. It seems weird that when he comes back, I'll almost be a senior in high school. He'll miss my first date, junior miss, plays, choir concerts, and lots of basketball games. He loves basketball. He was always the life of the party and he always made us laugh. This is really strange. This one will take some getting used to. The others were weird, too, but I wasn't as close to them as I was with Mitch. (Well, except for maybe Katie) Soon there won't be anyone left except me and Abby. I am lonely.
