Fantastic - and sleepy -

So today was fantastic!!! I realized I haven't updated in years, so I decided I should, but be warned, it's very late... a.k.a. it's not my fault if this post is boring or rambley or whatever. I intend for a quick update to meet my obligations, to, um whomever reads my blog. And then I will meet my obligations to my bed. Yay, sleep. So, Lately: -Daniel got his mission call!!!!! He's going to South Caroline, Spanish speaking. He enters the MTC September 23rd. Want to know a secret...? I've already cried once because I missed him, and he hasn't even left yet! Gosh, he's just like, the greatest brother ever! -My classes are swell! L-O-V-E VOLLEYBALL -My family went on vacation a few weeks ago to Michigan and Nauvoo. We had a blast-o-blast. I love my family!!! Nauvoo is sweet, seriously go there. And stay for more then two days. Yeah, loved it. -I donated blood again, and didn't even die. I'm gonna be pro in no time! Yeah. And...do you want to hear about my fantastic day! It was sweet-la-pete. -So, first wonderful thing. I was singing a song. Then I turned on the radio and it was the same song! Haha. Nice. -Then, I got 100% on my first exam of the term. Yaya. -And the fabulouso rest of the day was spent with an awesome friend. We went to SLC and watch the Joseph Smith Movie, then we played in this sweet water fountain that comes out of the ground. We ate lunch at the Lion House, then we went outside an watched the most ominous/beautiful/majestic storm engulf the sky. It was sweet. So we played in the rain and let the thunder rumble our rib cages until it started to hail. Um, then the scandalous part: we wanted to play the piano, so we snuck into this room in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building with a grand piano in it. Haha, we were playing for like 15 minutes, when, little did we know, the room we were in was one of the stops for the tour of the building. We couldn't find the light switch when we went into the room, so we decided the window light would suffice. The tour guide lady came in and turned on the lights, but her back was to us as she described the room. We felt really awkward because the people on the tour were staring at us...and we knew we probably weren't supposed to be there. Finally, an older gentlemen broke our awkwardness by taking advantage of the tour guide's pause between sentences. He pointed at us and teasingly said, "And over there we have a couple of angles." We smiled and bashfully left the room, then laughed at ourselves in the hall. Fun. Whew, long story. So then we drove home and the most beautiful rainbow I have ever seen followed us all the way! Seriously, it was amazing! Yeah, fun day. Definitely Bed Time! HAVE A HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

Congrats to soon to be elder finch. That really is neat. It was great to see you the other day, I think I should try to run into you more often.
