We had a fun weekend. They just always seem to go a little faster than we want! :) It was even a long weekend!
I went to IKEA with my sisters and mom on Saturday. That is a fun store!! We spent way too long in there, but it was still lots of fun and got out of there not spending much money! I am waiting till I have a new house to be able to start over! :)
That night Brandon and I went to pirates. I have to say, it was good, but don't know if I thought it was excellent! I was confused the whole time! :) It was fun to be with Brandon though!!
It was so nice to have a day off and know that you are getting paid to enjoy relaxing and being with family. We just hung out and ate!! We started doing round-offs and kartwheels. WOW!! I haven't done those in years!! I am getting old! My shoulders started to hurt! I should do that more often!!
I started watching the Jazz, but left because I didn't want to watch them loose! Brandon is now starting his 4th week of his internship. He loves it. The therapist that he is working for is so laid back and easy to get a long with! Brandon has gotten to go to the country club golfing, to lunch, and go 115 mph in a BMW! He is loving the interaction that he gets with the patients and knows that he has definately chosen the right career!! That makes me glad, I just wish that the weekdays went by as fast as the weekends!!

WHOOPS!!
Okay, so maybe I post to often! Oh well.. get over it! :)
This last weekend I went up to see Brandon in Idaho. I left right after work on Thursday and stayed at my parents until Friday afternoon. It was so good to finally see Brandon. I was able to meet the therapist and everyone that Brandon works with. They all seem super cool! We are so grateful for the experience this allows Brandon to have!
On Saturday, Grandma and Grandpa took us 4-wheeling. We were almost at the end of the trail and I accidentally hit a rock in the trail. It flipped the 4-wheeler over to the side of the trail. It was enough to tip it over. I fell off and knew that the 4 wheeler was coming on top of me!! I tried to fall farther away, but the 4-wheeler still landed on my foot!! Brandon came around the corner and he said that he saw a big ball of dust and me on the ground. He jumped off the 4-wheeler and came to make sure I was okay. I was crying and told him to get the 4 wheeler off my foot! He pushed it off with a couple heaves. I was sick to my stomach and could feel the shock in my body, so Brandon took me over to lay down and put my feet up on the helmet. My arm hurt so bad. It felt broken! I was so worried. I laid there for awhile while Grandma tied a sling using my jacket. I opened my eyes and the sky was spinning! Grandpa came back up to see what had happened. He wondered how the heck Brandon had pushed that 4 wheeler up by himself!! It was either angels helping him or his adrenaline was going when he saw me under it!
I rode down on the back of Grandpa's 4 wheeler. The whole time down thinking how I was going to do everything with a dang broken arm and that I knew my insurance was not going to cover out of state! It hurt really bad, but decided to wait and see what happened after we put ice on it. We got home and I put ice on it and took some ibuprofen and it started feeling much better! I think i just bruised it really really bad!! Thank goodness!! I came out of it with a sore/bruised right arm, a huge raspberry bruise on my upper thigh/hip, scratches on my right leg, bruised shins where the 4 wheeler landed, and a story to tell! It was definately scary, but I am glad it was only that. It could have been much worse!
The weekend was fun! It sucks to come home alone though and say goodbye!! 2 weeks down and 8 to go!!

SURVIVAL
I am happy to let everyone know that I have survived being alone for the past week and a half!! Except for the weekend when Brandon came home! :) I definately don't like it, but I am doing it! It is hard to not have anyone to come home to and to be alone when you are so used to having someone else there all the time, but I try to keep myself busy so I don't think about it! I am feeling a little bit more independent! I am not sure if I like it or not! :)
One night I heard noises in my wall. It sounded like someone was in the attic. It freaked me out, so I called Brandon. We decided that it was a bird that got in the attic and was trying to get out! It kept me up ALL night! I was so mad! That was only the beginning! There are birds stuck in just about every wall possible! They aren't as loud as that one was, but they are still annoying! I feel bad and wish I could get them out, but I can't!! They somehow get in through the small holes in the siding and then can't figure out how to get out! :) Kind of funny!
I am planning on going up to Idaho for the weekend. I am so excited to see Brandon! I talk to him all the time, but it is not the same! I have every other Friday off from now till the end of June to go see Brandon.
Brandon did excellent in his classes! I am so dang proud of him!! He is amazing!
Well, I guess that is it for now! :) I hope that everyone is doing well!

saying goodbye
Guess it is time for a new post!
We never really have exciting news like everyone else!!
Brandon finally finished with his finals (6 of them) and was so relieved to be done.
He was so drained mentally, physically, emotionally! I felt so bad for him! He got all rested up and we headed for Brigham on Friday. We were so excited to get to go see Spiderman 3! It was okay.. not the best, but okay! Cara thinks that Brandon looks so much like Toby/spiderman that it is scary! :) I think that is funny!
On saturday we tried to spend as much time as possible together before Brandon had to leave to Idaho. Kind of hard when you have 3 kids to watch while making cookies, grocery shopping and doing other errands! Wow! Kids are a handful, but they sure are cute!
Brandon left for Idaho on Saturday evening. Yes, I did cry (a couple times.) It was so hard to say goodbye! IT SUCKS! I act like he is going forever and I won't see him for the whole 10 weeks! I am just so used to him always being there! He starts his internship today and is really excited about it! I am excited for him!
We have worked out a plan to switch off the weekends. I have some time to take off, so I have taken every other Friday off so I can go up there with him!! We talk constantly! I already miss him so much and it has only been 2 days! We will see how the driving thing works out! If anyone needs a road trip I am all for some driving company! :)
I stayed with my parents till sunday night and went home. It is so weird to go home without Brandon. I was not excited to spend the night alone, but I checked all the closets and places that a boogey man can hide, made sure I had my phone and a flashlight and went to bed and SURPRISE, I was fine!! I know that I can do it, it just sucks! I hope that it will make me stronger and I will surprise myself. Also, that it will make our love stronger.. Okay, I am done with the cheesy stuff! :)
We found out that Brandon's tuition for this semester is half of what we thought! What a relief!! I can breathe now! :)
I hope that everything is good for everyone!
