California

I am In California right now at my sisters house. I have been here since last Thursday and it has been a treat. During the weekend I hung out with old high school friends which was SO fun. I guess it makes me feel like I am in high school again... because it was so long ago...Then Saturday I went to my nieces baptism which was so sweet. It brings me back to my baptism, which holds a really special place in my heart. I guess the extra bonus has been that my mom has been waking up with Berkeley and letting me sleep in a little bit. Best thing EVER!! Then on Easter, church was a real treat. I saw 3 of my friends that I grew up with my whole life and we talked a long time. I love coming home just for these reasons. I get so excited when I get to see everyone who I never ever see and it is so fun. We went over to my brothers house for Easter dinner and I made a cake shaped like a bunny head and candy for its face. It turned out OK... not my best work, but it was a hit for the kids.

Today my sister and I hung out going antique-ing and to see Blades of Glory. It was a little chaotic during dinner time. Berkeley was CRAZY because she was delusionally tired and I tried to make dinner at the same time. While baby Einstein was on repeat and so annoying, and her other 2 kids were having small breakdowns. It gave me a taste of what life has in store for me, and I am pretty prepared for it. By the way, Blades of Glory is pretty funny! I will never get sick of Will Farrells humor. Always at his movies I am the only one laughing at the stupidest things. I just laugh watching him. And its extra funny because John Heder looks exactly like my brother in law, Tanner!!

Tomorrow my mom goes in for surgery, so I hope all goes well. From here on out, all my attention will be towards her. She will do great and I will do even better taking care of her!!!
