So, life has been busy, if you couldn't tell. So busy in fact, that I haven't been able to write and tell all you lovely people about my lives. It seems as though I have been at work more the last few weeks then I have at home. Oh wait, I have! haha. We are working overtime out the wazoo and are usually pulling a few double shifts a week. That makes for a long week, a grouchy Emily, and no time to write on here. Hopefully I will do better now that I am use to the extra work!
Now to fill you in on my life. At the end of June I went to Hawaii! I absolutely loved it there! It was amazing and I did not want to leave. I will definitely be making another trip out there, hopefully sooner than later! Hawaii was everything I dreamed it would be and more! I loved being there and loved seeing Jordyn even more! She was such a great tour guide and took me to all the touristy spots, even if she didn't want too! We went to the Polynesian Cultural Center, the Dole plantation, Pearl Harbor, the Beach, the Swap Meet, and everything else you could imagine! Her wedding was absolutely beautiful and I was so glad I was able to be apart of it, even though I couldn't go in for the actual temple part (one day hopefully). I made so many wonderful friends over there. I miss them all dearly and hope to go back soon! They better be prepared!

A week after I came back was my birthday! I am not the big 21! This would be so much more of a bigger deal if I actually drank and partied, but alas, I don't. We went to my sisters house and hung out and played the wii. I got some super wicked presents! I got Lego Rockband, a microphone for the wii, Super Smash bros, and a Lego Harry Potter keychain! Wahoo!
A week after my birthday was my niece Zoe's birthday! She turned 3! She has waited so long for her birthday! Every time I would go to her house she would ask if I was there for her birthday. She would be so disappointed when I would tell her no, but it was finally her turn. We had a small family party and she loved it! It was good to be all together with the family again!
Oh, Harry Potter 7.2 came out last week. Unfortunately, because I live in the wonderful Bridger valley, I wasn't able to see it opening night. Actually I still haven't seen it. I know shocking huh! It is absolutely killing me. Hopefully I see it soon, or I may just go crazy! I have waited a long time to see this movie. I hope it lives up to my expectations. For those of you who don't know about my Harry Potter obsession, let me enlighten you. I have read all of the books 21 times, except the last one (I've only read it 10 times). I have seen the movies more times that I can count (most of them are memorized and if you watch with me you have to endure me watching my favorite parts over and over again.) I have 2 HP shirts, a blanket, 2 wands, keychains, video games, board games, cookbook, posters, notebooks, pens, folders. You name I have it! I love Harry Potter so much and I hate to see it end!
Well that is enough of my ramblings. I will be better at posting more.
