Taking a break!

So recently I decided that I was going to delete my facebook account. My goal is to make it for a year without facebook and if at that year mark I don't mind not having it then I won't get it back. I just got sick of always feeling like I had to check it, be on it or make a post. I couldn't always come up with something to say so I felt it was becoming a waste of my time. Sometimes it is good just to unplug yourself and come up with new things to do.

Welcome home Nathaniel Allen Ensign!

 I know that I am about two weeks late posting this but life has been crazy. August 14 Elder Nathaniel Allen Ensign returned home from serving an honorable mission in the Jackson Mississippi Mission. At the airport to welcome him home were my parents, my sisters and our brother-in-law. Nate had only met him twice on skype before coming home. I knew that when I saw Nate that I would probably start crying. I never would of guessed that I would cry as hard as I did. 

  It was pretty funny because when people come down the escalator you can't really see their heads until a certain point. So we would see dress pants start coming down and we would think is that Nate. Then we would see that it was a short and large belly man or a woman. When I  finally did see Him all I got out was there's Nate and I just started crying really hard.

 We only got to have four days with him before he had to leave to go down to Dixie. Most of the time was spent trying to get him ready to leave again. Thursday, Mom, Dad, Shelby, Nate and I all went to the temple and did a session together. It really was great being able to be there with most of my family. It was pretty bad when Nate went to go shopping for some clothes for school and the whole family went with. I just wanted to spend as much time with him as I could. Since we didn't have much time with him before he left, I sometimes forget that he is even home.
