Marsix is home

Finally my partner in crime is home from her mission. I cant believe how fast time flew. When she left i was a Rosales and when she came back i was a Stewart. I still cant believe she was gone for my wedding but she was called to the SLC mission a couple of weeks before.
My aunt Mary was excited as can be to have her little girl back and decided to do a little get together. I told my mom this and she said "yea right theyre probably gonna close the streets down" hehe non the less is was a very nice welcome home party. Im glad we were able to make it. I found out the morning of that the party was changed to that day and was relieved that Mike was ok with coming home from work, packing and leaving. I love living close to my family. I love that tati is just a txt away, because who calls people now a day, jk :)
While we were there we were able to do a little shopping, watch movies and go ice skating. Oh yea and eat lots and lots because when Mexicans asks if you want seconds they dont take no for an answer. ;)

Boy Scouts

I dont think michael couldve gotten a better calling than to be in YM. He gets to go camping, fishing, swimming, rock climbing, canoeing, hiking, just to name a few things. Oh how he suffers. Last time i tagged along one day for one of the camp outs. I was sick of studying at home and decided it would be nice to study out in a park while the boys did their thing. I couldnt have asked for a better study time. All the scouts were busy getting their badges and i found a quiet little spot on a bench with some nice shade. The weather was great too. After the boys were done swimming mike met me for lunch. ( this park was huge. There were probably over 300 scouts there) they had a Carls Jr truck there so mike decided to get some hamburgers. It was a very fun day. Whenever mike told me he would would on camp outs i thought they sat around tying knots and playing with sticks but man was i wrong, these boys have fun, im jealous now. Joel went this time too. I love how mike and joel are little friends now and go places together and work on projects together. I hope all of mikes handy skills will continue to rub off on Joel

(P.s.this is the first time im using this version of blogger hope this post looks ok )
