I survived my 2 week Family Violence class! Well, just about. I have a few weeks to submit my research paper, which will become my Friday night activity while Taylor is working. It is because of him that I survived! He is so supportive. He drove up with me to class on Tuesday and Thursdays and had lunch for me to eat on the way up. Monday, Wednesday and Friday he couldn't drive up with me, but would meet me at work and have lunch for me. He is always helpful around the house, but he definetly did more than his share the past couple weeks. He also picked up a few extra shifts to help out since I was only able to work half of my normal hours. I am so grateful for him. I am back to my normal schedule now- Monday/Fridays at the preschool working 9-2, Tuesday-Thursday working at the Dental College working 7:30/8:00-5:00 and class Monday/Wednesday evenings up at the U from 7:30-9:00 pm. And just have 1 other online class. Taylor continues to work Monday/Wednesday/Fridays from 3 pm-11 pm, but there is a Monday/Wednesday/Friday morning shift opening up, which he is going to apply for if he can arrange his classes for Tuesday/Thursday mornings in the Fall. My fingers are crossed. I have gotten used to his schedule though and mind less having to be alone in the evenings, but it would be nice to have him home every evening. We'll see.

Michael (Taylor's cousin), or Elder Karren as I knew him, returned home from Spain last Tuesday, June 15th. It is so fun to have him home. Taylor and him had not seen each other for 4 years, so it was exciting to see them reunite! And it is super fun for me to get to know Elder Karren as Michael! We met him at the airport along with his family and Taylor's parents. Afterwards we had dinner at the Karren home. We kidnapped him on that Thursday. Taylor hung out with him after dropping me off for my class and then they both picked me up and we brought him with us back home and he spent the night with us. It was so much fun to see him and Taylor together and so fun for me to talk with him about Spain. The boys hung out Friday morning and then met me when I got off work, so I could bring Michael home on my way to class. Saturday he came with us to the Chalk Art Festival at the Gateway and Sunday was his homecoming. It was great to hear him speak in Church and hear more of his experiences. We are so happy he is home and excited for the adventures ahead!
