Trip to California for good

This was the start of my new adventure to move to California. It was quite stressful trying to figure our if I had all of my belongings packed and to also think about how I was going to transport all of my stuff. But I got through it like you always do but of course you might have to leave something behind. As I left SLC I just kept thinking to myself that I was really leaving for good. It kind of scared me. I love my family so much and I want to see them all the time but I guess it won't happen very often. The Lord has a plan for me in California whether it be a missionary experience or my own spiritual growth. As I arrived Trent picked me up and I arrived early so I sat around the airport for a while and then decided I should go in and wait for him and he had been waiting for me for the last hour. Oh Well! We stopped off at Ryan & Susan's house and went to dinner with them. The rest of the week there I just ran errands with Kelly and hung out with Hope. I organized our new apartment a little better and made sure everything was going to fit. Wednesday night my parents and siblings arrived and I went and stayed at their hotel the next two nights.

Thursday morning the 27th my grandparents, Dad&Mom, Aleece, Liz went to a session at the temple. It was nice to be there with my family. I don't think I will have that opportunity again unless they all come and visit me. It was nice to go before so I could familiarize the way that the temple worked according to the rooms. I saw the Bride's room and it was so incredible.

After the temple we went to Sea World. That was a fun experience for Colten and too see how excited he would get over the littlest thing. So sad that I won't see him grow up. I was ready to leave Sea World 5 hours later you can only handle it for so long. I rode the rapid ride though 4 times and literally got soaked and my new garments were stained blue.

I made a list of things to do that night and I finally got stressed and had to let it out but my dad made it worse by yelling at me so then I just cried and I had to leave. I wanted Trent to just hold me and tell me that it didn't matter. I finally found Trent and we went to the apartment and packed for our honeymoon. I waxed Trent's eyebrows and we read the scriptures and said good night.
