My Weekend at Home

Being in China for a semester was a little easier because me and Chris's relationship has just started, so we didn't really know much different. But after spending the two weeks at home for Winter vacation, being away again was really hard.

I was losing concentration and having a hard time motivating myself to work on school because I was just so homesick. So mom and dad were kind enough to get me a plane ticket to come home for a three-day weekend. Chris and I didn't really do anything extravagant, we just hung out like we had over winter break. But even still, it was one of the best weekends of my life. I love spending time with him, even if we aren't doing anything.

On Sunday he agreed to go to church with me. Afterwards, we hung out at my house and watched TV for a while before we worked together on peeling and cutting potatoes. While washing the knife afterwards, I cut my thumb pretty deeply. That was kind of an adventure :)
So we all ate dinner together, and mom and dad got to officially meet him.
Ryan called and wanted to Skype, so Chris got to participate in that and meet Ryan as well.
After we left the house to go meet a friend, Chris commented that our family is absolutely adorable. I'd have to agree :)
Sadly I forgot to take any pictures. But mom brought out the camera on Sunday and got one of us together.

And now I've been back in Idaho for a week and I'm already facing the homesickness again. My heart has been left in Washington. I just need to find some way to motivate myself to work hard and get through the rest of the semester.

We should have skyped with Kari too so he could see the rest of our "adorable" family!
Six more weeks---you can do it! The end result will be a Bachelors Degree which will be something you can be proud of!
Why don't you go visit Kari for a weekend and the kids will keep you plenty busy.
