Then this handsome husband of mine started classes! He's so excited and we can already tell it's going to be a great year. It was the first time that I hadn't been off to school in 16 years. Let me tell you, that's a really crazy feeling. It's weird to see all my friends posting about their first day of school, their classes and books, and I went in to work like I have for the past five months. It's good but hard to be done with things sometimes. I didn't think I would miss school, but I do in some ways. Then in other ways I don't miss it at all.

Randy and I spent Sunday night in Provo to celebrate my darling friend Lauren's birthday. It was fun to catch up with people that I haven't seen for a while. We have friends coming home from missions, and since we are in Salt Lake and everyone else is in Provo, it's nice to get together and see everyone. Marriage has completely opened my eyes about friendship, and that's a really good thing. I've learned there's a really fine line between missing something, and wishing you could go back.
