Family

Already this week has been quite delightful and filled with family. As a single girl living away from home it's always nice when I get to go home and see my family. This week has been a bit different. Sunday I got to drive up to Tremonton where my cousin Jon lives to pick up my cousin Emma. Emma is from Pennsylvania and I hadn't seen her in about 9 years. She will be going to BYU this semester. She flew out last week and my cousin Jon picked her up from the airport. Then my aunt came down from Idaho and took her shopping for everything she'd need at college. Then it was my duty to make sure she made it to BYU. So we had a nice chat getting to know each other a bit on the way back, she stayed the night at my apartment and then we got up bright and early to take her to school. We dropped her stuff at her dorm, got her an ID card and books and then I left her to go on her retreat. I sure do like that girl.
Then to add to the day my grandpa called me to see if I was working, which I was. He then called me back to see what time I got off work and invite me to dinner. He then called me back again and asked me to go pick up my cousin Connor and meet them for dinner. So after getting off work late I went and got Connor and we drove to my great aunts house. So the reason for this get together is that my cousin McKenna is also starting at BYU this fall and her family drove her out from Michigan. So we all went out to dinner. My aunt Shelley is insane. That woman can TALK. It's very funny. Sadly McKenna and Teresa don't remember me and hardly even knew how we were related. I find this quite ridiculous since I saw them last year when they brought Connor to school, but what are ya gonna do? It was fun to see everyone and chat for a bit and free dinner is always appreciated.
In other news in the wonderful world of Cathy, I decided to work this week instead of taking a vacation. I didn't really know where to go and I didn't want to go by myself. It saves me money and I'm earning money and I get to work with my awesome co-worker one more week. I didn't like working by myself but it would have been easier to leave if I hadn't gotten a new awesome co-worker. He's hilarious and he keeps trying to convince me to stay. If I didn't dislike the job so much he might be able to convince me. So as of now I have 4 days left. The summer is coming to a close. It's been great. I'll be moving soon. Lot's of new adventures to come.
