Last week, I got to go home for Thanksgiving! After having a really hard week, I was homesick and SO ready to go home. Luckily, I complained about not having a ride back to Arizona at work one day, and someone I work with said she was going and could take me. That was seriously the best thing ever!
So, Tuesday morning I got picked up to go home! I was in the car with the girl I work with and two of her friends. It was pretty fun, we just blasted music. We stopped in Flagstaff for food and to drop off one of the girls. We ended up getting to Flagstaff an hour early, so we had to wait for the girl's mom to come pick her up. Then we drove the rest of the way to Gilbert. AND I WAS HOME!! :D (If you couldn't tell, I was so flippin' excited to be home!) My parents and brothers were up to meet me, even though it was late. I couldn't stop smiling and hugging my family. It was so great to be home!
On Wednesday, I woke up when I felt like it with no alarm. It was awesome! I got up aand get a text from my dad asking if I wanted to meet him for lunch at In-N-Out. Uhmmm, heck yes!! So, I got to spend some time with my daddy, which was nice! Then I went to visit the school my mom teaches at. The was fun, becasue I got to see a few of my old teachers from elementary school. Then I picked up Betsy, and we went to Savers and Target and pretty much just had an awesome time! Later, my cousins came over for hot chocolate. After that, I went to my friend Chelsea's house and got to hang out with a bunch of my friends. I got a lot of hugs from them! They asked me if I was engaged yet, and were shocked to find out that I haven't even been on a date since I've been up at Provo. To be honest, I'm pretty shocked too... :P Well, we ended up watching Once Upon a Time (because some of them had never seen it). Yeah, I think they're hooked! ;)
Thursday was Thanksgiving! I kinda just hung out with my family and then our family friends came over and we ate yummy food! Uhm, thats really all.... But it was fun! And Delicious! :)
Friday was really fun! I took my brother to Chick-Fil-A because he had a gift card. Then I hung (hanged?) out with my friend Jesse. We got cupcakes, went to his friend's mission call opening (he is going to Hawaii), and went mini golfing with some more friends. After mini golf, some people wanted to get pizza, but me and Jake wanted Taco Bell, so we all went to go get food and met back at Jesse's house where we played Clue. Then we went and got rainbow slushies and went to my house where we played Bananagrams and watched Once Upon a Time (because none of them had seen it)! It was a super fun night!
Saturday, Kourtney took me to lunch at Firehouse Subs. After that, I went to my old work to say hi to everyone! It was so fun to be there again. I really miss it. After going to my work, Kourtney and I went to the mall! Later, some family friends came over for dinner, and I got to see my friend Haley! I have known Haley since we were about 2 years old! It was so fun to see her again. We played Bananagrams and Just Dance 4 (which is sooooo awesome! It has Call Me Maybe on it, and you can buy Gangnam Style for it! :D So cool!)
On Sunday, my dad made biscuits and gravy for breakfast (my favorite!). Then my dad took me on a motorcycle ride. I love riding on motorcycles! Then my family went to church while I packed up my stuff and watched Pokemon. Yeah, I watched Pokemon...... Then I got picked up and we drove back to Provo. We made awesome time! And now I'm back to the cold! (Which I'm actually very excited for!)
I am definitely so glad I got to go home! It was the perfect time! Now only three more weeks until I can go back! :) Oh, I love the Holiday season!
(Oh, and I know how awesome I am that I didn't take a single picture while I was in AZ. I really need to get better at taking pics....)
