What I Realize Every Time I Go Home

+ It's much sunnier than Rexburg, Idaho

+ It's much more humid than Rexburg, Idaho

+ I always end up going to Dillard's with my mom, at least once

+ I play trains with Elijah

+ Eli is growing abnormally fast and he's way tall for his age

+ There's always something to reorganize in the house

+ Chris and I quote tv shows and movies like no other

+ Chris and I laugh at everything because we stopped growing at 12

+ I get re-acquainted with my super comfy, super huge bed, and I never wanna leave it

+ I eat my mami's cooking

+ I realize my diet in Rexburg consists of Taco Bell, cereal, and Coke

+ I actually did not make it to the beach while I was home (tearssssssssss)

+ But I did go to Disney World, and it was magical

+ I love driving

+ I don't love driving with my parents in the car

+ My hair gets special treatment by mommabear

+ I get tan....er

+ I get to jump in a pool, even when it's overcast

+ My dad makes me laugh more than anyone, and he doesn't even have to try

+ I wanna record and photograph everything my brothers do

+ I wanna play and hold every baby and child in my ward on Sundays

+ It feels amazing to open the pantry and fridge and find a BUNCH of food you didn't have to pay for

+ I know all the radio stations

+ It's weird. It's just weird being home after being on your own; frustrating at times

+ But in the end, I'm happy. so so so happy

Bienvenido, Noviembre

October, you were so kind to me. I greatly appreciate it. I loved your fall colors and your pumpkins and your Halloween adventures and General Conference and scary movies and bipolar weather and the candy that I didn't eat because I'm trying to be a healthier person. Twas a blast! Till next time.

I'm so excited for November, for real!

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday next to Valentine's Day. Why Valentine's Day? You'll just have to read up in February....Anyway, I love Thanksgiving super much. I love America. And in its honor, I am going to list one thing I am grateful every day for the month of November...original, I know. 

UNO: Family (We're missing an 18-year-old boy, I know)

DOS: The Gospel

TRES: Education

CUATRO: Music

Don't forget to count your blessings, amigos.

Also, here are some pictures of my Halloween adventures with my best friend Em! (Definitely NOT taking any of the photo credit, bee.tee.dubs)

Hope October was nice to you too!
