Crazy, crazy weather.

The weather in Rexburg has been one heck of a roller coaster this past week or so. Last week and a few days ago we were up to beautiful sunny skies filled with no clouds and a high of 65* F. A few days after that, it got back down to below freezing. Ever since, we have had massive snow storms one day, decent overcast and sunny skies the next, and back to windy, stormy weather systems the next. I can't help but wonder if my emotions are affected that dramatically by the weather around me. In general, I have a very high tolerance level for many things in this life, and I am able nto handle a high amount of stress. Let me tell you, these past few days I have been fine, the next day the tears just flow. It's really annoying, in all honesty.

Next week, I have a paper to write, 3 finals, some homework to finish, white glove, packing everything to drive home to Oregon, and having to deal with leaving Casey. I will be able to see almost all of my friends out here again soon, but I honestly don't know when the next time I'll see Casey will be, as he stays out ehre for another semester and then goes home until his 2 years mission. I'm in pretty deep. It'll be hard, but I'm preparing myself. Perhaps don't aggitate me next week?

But anyway, the Claridge's came up to Rexburg! Here are the pictures I promised form the endevor.

The 12 of us playing Apples to Apples after Craigo's.

Casey and I at Craigo's.

We had to wait about 20 minutes inside Craigo's for a table big enough. This is us becoming bored. The poor staff had to walk around 12 crazy costumers.

Here are the 10 kids. We are only missing Will and Kimberly, the "responsible" ones.

This is probably my favorite picture of Casey and me. We have Sam and Trish in the back, of course.

The boys finally came... but do I look happy to see them? haha!

This is backwards, but here are Becca, Trish, and I waiting anxiously for the Claridge clan to show up at our apartment. If only we took a video... We were literally jumping off the walls.
