My old roommate Kelsey Johnson has arrived home from her missionary service in the Philippines! She served in the Bacolod mission for the last year and a half, and I'm glad she's back! FINALLY! I got to visit her in Denver for a long weekend and hear her report on Sunday. Man she inspired me to get back into shape spiritually! (She is the tall white one in the picture!)

I think her mom bought the entire cereal aisle before Kelsey came home! This wasn't even all of them! We had a handful of each cereal for breakfast. It was her first breakfast with out rice for the last 18 months. As you can see from my face, 11 different cereals is my version of a gourmet breakfast. I LOVE CEREAL! :)

Kels will be back in Idaho w/ me in the fall! WOO!

HONEY

We got a dog! She is a mix of a German Shepherd and a Rottweiler. Santa finally answered the last two decades of christmas letters! Her name is Honey.... i know, i know, I wanted to name her BoneThug but the previous owner named her Honey and that is what she responds to. She belonged to some friends of ours who train dogs, but they were moving into a small town home and already had 2 other dogs so there just was not space for Honey. So she is officially Ms. Honey Bell!

I've always gagged at pet-obsessed people who worry about their little pooch being home alone, but I might be turning into one of them! Don't worry, she can't fit in my purse.

I took a course this last month to be a Nurse's Assistant because its a pre-req for some RN schools. I took my state exam today and I passed which is such a relief! I'm excited I have that done and I'm officially a CNA! :) So LEGIT! Here's a random picture of me with "Mr. Joshua"
