""Mommie, i like the Bible stories""

good morning world!

the title is a quote from my little man! makes me a proud Mama!

today its 8:08 when i'm finally up and moving. i dont have to make it in time for breakfast, i'm not showered, and i didn't have to deal with a power outage! its wonderful to be home!!!

yesterday was the longest day of the conference. we still got some good information and had some good discussion. but they could see that we were all burnt out! so it was a slower day with not too much going on. the conference ended at 3:00 and sadly, i had to get in my taxi by 3:15. so i had to say quick goodbyes and rush out. that was sort of okay because i started to get teary! i made some good friends, i know i keep saying that, but i really did! we all just connected on both a spititual level and a "were all going through the same thing" level.

its funny because the 2 girls i spent the most time with were from Mississippi so now my inner monolog has a sounther accent! i also spent time talking with Father Dan who came over from England. so that british accent keeps coming up too! Father Dan is a hoot too! hes so quick and witty, we laughed at him SO much!

after saying my goodbyes i hopped in the taxi. luckily i had another lady, Virginia, that had a flight shortly after mine. so we rode together. the 12 mile trip to the airport takes about 45 minutes..... and thats one big fat reason i dont want to live in a big city anymore! once i got there getting through security was quick and easy and i just had about 20 minutes to wait to get onto my flight. the flight home was cool because we flew most of the way up above the clouds! they just surrounded us and it was so awesome! i had turned my phone totally off, otherwise i'd have a sweet picture to show you. :(

i got back into Des Monies about 7:00. Matt and Ethan were there to greet me! after stopping off to grab me some dinner we headed back to home sweet home! it was so nice to sleep in my own bed! however, i don't miss having to share a bed with someone!!

Matt got up early to go help Bri Guy's mom roof her garage. they didnt do much of anything yesterday because of the "chance of rain". which sucked because yesterday would have been a perfect day for it! hopefully they'll get a good chunk done today!

other good news is that we have 2 showings of our house within a week! i got a call that someone wanted to come and look at it Friday morning, and then another that someone will come Monday afternoon! yeay!! Lexie(one of the southern girls) told me that if you bury, upsidedown, a statue of St. Joseph in your backyard its supposed to help you sell your house..... ssooo i need to find myself a St. Joseph statue!

Ethan and i are going to take a walk to see how the roofing is going!
have a great Saturday!
