well maybe as ya'll can tell.. xanga hasn't really been real high on my list lately....(facebook is much better cuz you don't need to keep it updated n stuff, just to let ya know)  and since i don't really want to spend very much time on here...i'll keep it short! ahem..glad to get that settled!!

so anyways, i guess the highlight of my wk was that on friday and saterday... Krystal Nisly came down to visit...we had a totally awesome time! you rock girl!! 

 we spent most of our time in town..and of course we couldn't go to town without stopping at                                 Timmy's!!!                                                                         

and then after some shopping we ate out at Pizza Hut!

we were so happy with ourselves..we had all ordered personals and when the waitress came out..she said that they were out of personals and they would give us small's for the some price!! just gotta luv when that happens! so we had tons of leftovers for a midnight snack! yay!! 

 and then Wal-mart...did ya know that they sell the most awesomest shoes ever??

im pretty sure i could start a

new fad with this pic!!

   and then we saw these really sweet shades that we just HAD to try on...by this time we were getting some really strange looks!=)

 jess just has a way of lookin hot in shades! lol!

          Hannah Montana shades!!!!!!! yeaaaahhh!!                           

                                                  Smokey Bear Park

           we actually did do more then eat..i promise!!=)

             this here would be the moose at Border Bob's

so anyways....im not really in a mood to write tonight so this post might have been kinda boring for some of you.... but oh, well..deal with it!

and for those of you that are kinda behind times..we are officialy moving!! we have a moving date set for Oct. 6 which is really scary!!

and we also had our farewel from the mission last sunday which was kinda hard...i think it finally sunk in then that we really are moving!! and since then its been packing, and more packing...and fun stuff like that!!=) so yeah...if ya think of us in the next couple of wks you can pray for us!! just cuz of other stuff that is gonna be happening...we have to pretty much be packed in two wk...its crazy!!
