slow week

Is it only Wednesday? Gee, this week is going sooo slowly.

And yet, I can't believe that the semester is almost over.

According to my countdown clock, I'm almost down to the exact four month mark until the wedding. Whoo!

Scott's almost done with his mission papers. Just a dentist appointment and appointments with the bishop and stake president and his papers will be submitted. After that, it will be the wait. And we'll be taking bets as to where he's going. Stephan has already betted that Scott will go Chinese-speaking.

In my last post, I forgot to talk about the weekend.

General Conference was great. Scott, Stephan, and I went up to Salt Lake for the Saturday morning session. It was cold and rainy, but we got there. After conference was over, we stuck around for a little bit, taking pictures on the outside balcony and then wandering around temple square. When traffic lightened up, we drove Scott back to Provo and then went back to Pleasant Grove and listened to the afternoon session there. Then came the Priesthood session--Anderson men left the house leaving the women behind. I used that time to call my mom, since I don't call her as much these days...heh heh.

Then, the men came home and we ate a late, light supper. Then it was time to take me home. The next morning, Stephan picked me up and we went to his house again. We ate breakfast (crepes...mmmm). His sister came with her husband and their ADORABLE two children: Ginny (almost 3) and Tavin (9.5 months). Ginny has started calling me "Aunt Lala". It is so cute. Then we listened to conference. After the sessions were over, there were dinner and games. And there was some wedding planning. And baby Tavin bit me on the shoulder. Ouch! I scared the poor thing when I screamed. I wasn't expecting a baby to have such a hard bite!

So, yeah, that was my weekend.

I woke up Monday morning without the ability to breathe because I was congested. The congestion has been waking me up for the last few mornings (at not-so-good hours), unfortunately. I guess spring is here. I wish they didn't put decongestants behind glass...grr. Stupid meth addicts for making it so the rest of us law-abiding citizens have to suffer for their addiction.

I went to a dinner for Stephan's job last night. It was pretty good--it was a luau themed dinner. The barbequed chicken was amazing. Mmm. After the dinner, we hung around the UVU campus for a little while. We talked about what we have left in wedding planning. We are dreading addressing invitations because we know that we have to send out A LOT. And we haven't even gotten engagement pictures taken yet!

So, that's what's going on so far. I'm going home for a few days after the semester is over.
