Tonsils

So this past week has been quite the week... on the 28th of July i decided it was finally time to remove the tonsils that were inhabiting my throat... it has been quite the process. i am doing great and apparently during the surgery i did great as well... I have had lots of support from all of my friends and family. Amber, Sarah, Becky and Miriam have all come to see me while i have been "under the weather." It has been very nice having people here so that i don't get bored, and apparently i am still comic relief even on my narcotics. The one person that know wishes could be here is my wonderful fiancee Barry. He is always worrying about me and loving me and encouraging me to get better so i can eat whatever i want.. Don't get me wrong i love "popcycles" and icecream, and gatorade.. but i am getting to the point where i am just about to go to Wendy's and say give me EVERYTHING on the menu... but i know that very soon i will be able to eat and i can already tell a difference in my sleep and in my breathing. Well that is how my week has been going... and i am happy to say that things are looking up from here

Our New Blog

So i decided that maybe i would set up a blog that both barry and myself can get to... So this past month has been the interesting one..So i had been waiting for June 19th since we had decided bout the end of march that was when i would be going to stay in Fresno... It came and i was extremely excited. i watched out the window as i left boise and as i left San Fran.. when i arrived in Fresno i was a ball of nerves... i called barry and he was like i know im late but i am at the airport just parking. so i stood waiting for my luggage to come with him after our long overdue hug and then we got in the car and went and picked up mom and grandma from the hospital. then the adventure began. it had to be the best 2 1/2 weeks anybody could have ever asked for. I met so many wonderful people. I love them all... and can't wait til they are officially my family. the first week i was there barry had VBS (vacation bible school) and so we did that at night. then after that week it calmed down alittle and we got more serious and talked about more things. and we went swimming and hung out as a couple and then before the 4th mom and Aunt Julie ( my fav by the way) and grandma went to town and got all prettied up with our nails and then went grocery shopping and then went home... Girls day out.. then we had a big party with family and friends... it was a lot of fun! there was so much that we did in those 2 weeks i am just picking out my favorites. OH!!!! another favorite was going on a double date with freddy and his girlfriend Ashley. we went to dinner at Me-n- Eds and then we went to go and see the movie UP! which btw is a great movie. The sunday after the 4th barry and i left to come to boise where another epic adventure began. but i just wanted to say thank you to everyone who made me feel so welcome... I loved being there and can't wait to spend more time there!!! Emily is one who doesn't have facebook... but her and Phillip and Nicole Kevin and Julie and Ken and Mom and Dad and Thomas and Grandma and OH MY SO MANY MORE PEOPLE who mean a lot to me now!!

That was my stay in Fresno and the stay here in Boise has been wonderful! he met lots of my family when he went to my family reunion. I have to say i was alittle nervous even though i already knew all of them! LOL! But he fit in really well.. It made me cry when my Grandma Alice made the most wonderful comments about us and about him. Everybody was very welcoming. on our 9 month anniversary i had an ENT appointment to see if i was a good candidate to get my tonsils removed. Come to find out my tonsils are a 4+ on a scale of 1-4 in largeness. So here in a couple of weeks i will have those removed as well! The next couple of months are going to be hard but i know they will be Great...

OH yeah my fav part i have to say is when we went and looked at rings. I have been looking at them with becky and amber but this took the cake because it was real! i love the one we picked out for me and for him! i can't wait for the sneaky man to propose so that we can get this wedding planned!
