Well, I'm not much of a writer anymore so maybe this will improve my writing skills. I will just dive in and start with the downs of my week, so I can end on a high note :) !
I really hated to see my sweet Elise and Amanda go home! They were such a joy to spend time with. My grandbaby is the sweetest, prettiest, and best grand baby in all the world! Of course all of my grandchildren will be! Amanda, it was so much fun to just visit. I love you.
I felt really sad to see my dear friend Shelly so ill. I pray all my children will be blessed with a friend like her.
Now for the highs! I have a beautiful and healthy and faithful family which I always count as one of my greatest blessings! I was so blessed to see my first born sealed in the Logan temple to a lovely and worthy young woman who we are so thrilled to welcome into our family. I know this is not last weeks news but I just couldn't write anything until I rejoiced over this great blessing!
I have a healthy granddaughter who is blessed with wonderful parents. I love you D.J.! I know it was a real sacrifice to send your sweet girls to us. We really missed you and we hope to spend time with you soon.
I love you all so much! I will write more soon!

High- Elise and I got to visit the ranch for over a week! Some highlights: attending Katie and Dan's wedding reception, watching Brittany get her driver's license, bottling pears with all the girls, and showing off the baby!
Low- Even though Elise did amazingly well, flying with an infant is stressful! I'd say the low point was landing in Indianapolis and trying to locate our shuttle home while my hungry baby's screams echoed through the terminal. AAAAHHHH!! We're still trying to recover from the jet lag. Also, I missed D.J. sooo much!! It's no fun being apart!
Ashley
High- Setting [my roommate] Petra up with one of my friends. They seem to be hitting it off pretty well. If they get married I'm getting the first born. Haha!
Low- Doing laundry and homework on a Friday night. Some random guy stopped by and talked to me for over an hour. I think it was out of pity. I would feel bad for myself too.
Tiffany
High- I love school! My roommates are the absolute best! Everynight we say prayer and hug eachother goodnight! So cute! I also loved how Dan called Taylor and i answered...he didn't know who i was. It was quite hilarious. I also went to the dunes...Then we did the temple to temple run! and it was GREAT!
Low- I HATE..no no no.. LOATHE my math class. I am trying to force myself to not hang out with boys so much that i know i'm not gunna date...so thats a little difficult...and still don't know my major. Its starting to stress me out! AND... ( makes it sound like im having a bad time, but im really not... life is good :) i need to find a job!

High- When you have seven aunts and uncles and you're the only grandchild to "baby-hungry" grandparents, life can't get much better. I am now accustomed to being held, loved, cooed-at, and rocked 24-7 (much to the chagrin of my parents).
Low- When it's time for me to eat, I have no patience for delays. Who cares if the plane is boarding or if our luggage is coming on the baggage claim? I'M HUNGRY! Why doesn't my mother understand this?
