Bolivia

Josh has been in Bolivia for 10 days. He comes home tonight!!! It has been too quiet at home without him, so I'm excited to have him back. But I have enjoyed sleeping in the middle of the bed, so I'll have to see how quickly that habit can be broken. Either way, I'm so ready for him to come home. I missed him more than I thought I would.

The day after J & his dad left for Bolivia, Linda & I started walking in the mornings. We only walk about 1 mile around a lake near our houses, but it's nice to have an exercise buddy who keeps me motivated. It's also been nice to get to know her a little better & spend some one on one time with her. I've really missed having a mother figure, and I don't think I ever realized how much I like it.

This is the week of wedding showers. 2 down & one to go. Last Sunday, was Elishua's bridal shower. I didn't take a lot of pictures, but it was held in one of the hotel conference rooms on campus. Luckily, this building had just done some renovations, so the room we held it in was beautiful! I helped with the decorations. The bridesmaids chose to do a springtime theme, so it was mostly flowers & spring colors. The only bad part was that it seemed a little light on food (which would have been embarrassing if I was responsible for this shower), but luckily all of the ladies who came to the shower were either close family or still-in-college friends, so they didn't judge us. Last night my friend Kristi hosted the lingerie shower for Elishua. She killed it. The whole apartment was decorated in hot pink & zebra. It was super cute. We played fun (& humiliating) games, ate a lot of food, and got to hang out with Elishua. She got a ton of beautiful lingerie. Brett is gonna be one lucky guy. On this Sunday I'm hosting my BFF's first bridal shower of her wedding season. The theme is sunshine (I think I did a post on this earlier) & I'm actually starting to get a little nervous about it. I will have to remember to post pics after the shower.
