-*NoVeMbEr*-
started with baby maycie's blessing.
she looked sooo cute and precious :)
for thanksgiving i worked so i have no fun family pictures or anything
to show of the holiday.
one thing is for sure though i live a pretty great life.
im thankful for my friends and family that make me smile each day.
i love them a lot.
at the end of the month kaprena and tawni were passing through
on their way back to rexburg.
we went to temple square and walked around.
i miss my rexburg family a lot.
it was soooo good to be with them even just for a little bit.
-*DeCeMbEr*-
at the beginning of the month
i said goodbye to walmart and heber.
before my last night two of my cashiers took me out to eat dinner
meet luz and stephanie.
my last night at work.
sammy and i had some good times working together
and getting to know each other.
i love her a lot!
me and sammy again with our cashier deb.
deb and i went through orientation together and were
partnered to work together while getting ready for the grand opening
of heber's walmart.
she was the first person who i got to really know in heber
she is an amazing lady and i think of her everyday.
she was always there when i needed someone to talk to and
always giving me advice when i needed it.
me and andrea again.
i love this girl A LOT! i loved working with her
when i had the chance.
as much as i thought that i really hated heber,
i really did love it more then i realized.
i LOVED living with micah casey and jett.
it was the hardest thing packing up my stuff and leaving.
i loved the people that i worked with.
spending time with the same 30ish people from 10pm-7am
most nights brings you all pretty close together.
they were my own little family when i wasnt around my own.
on the 3rd of december i was back in wyoming,
just trying to stay busy before the big day came when eric returned home.
my girls even danced in a recital. i was sooo proud of them!
they did pretty awesome :)
then i had the BEST day EVER.
december 9 was for sure the best day of 2011 for this girl.
im pretty sure you couldnt have wiped the smile off my face no matter
how hard you tried.
my favorite missionary elder eric gillies
returned home from the brazil salvador mission
im sooo glad that he is finally home!
being back with him couldnt be any better.
it's like he never left.
since he has been home we have been spending
every second we can together. :)
this was the last picture we took together before he left
and then when he got home
looks like we havent changed too much huh.
the past two years were hard.
but i had sooo many good times along the way.
