Near Past, Definite Present, and Close Future

I love my family.

I'm really lucky to have such a great family who loves everyone in it and cares about everyone. It's so nice to be able to see them.

Today was my youngest cousin's first birthday. He is THE MOST ADORABLE kid on the planet. He's always so good and never cries or gets upset. He's always smiling and wanting to play. He makes my day.

I also love going out to eat with my family when I'm up in North Ogden, or Salt Lake, or just closer to home than my podunk temporary home called Ephraim. (Bleh) Tonight I went to Su Casa and it was delicious. I forgot how I can't stop myself from eating chips there once I start. (Like at Bella's I do the same thing.)

Now it's not very late and it's a Saturday. I miss Sarah, and I hate that she forgot her phone charger, because to call her I have to call her house phone! (Yeah, I know right? How pathetic is it that I'm so used to getting ahold of people by cell phone that it's a challege and inconvenience to call their house phone!) At least I got to hear her sweet voice for a little bit, though.

Next weekend is going to be pretty dang fun. On Friday, I'm (crossing my fingers) going to stand in with Devin and Corey's band Season's Extreme when they play with Joshua James in Manti. They decided that they wanted a bass player and a keyboard player because every other band that's playing has a whole band, not just two guys. Even though it's just going to be this one show, I'm still really excited about it, and if any of you who read this are going to (doubtfully) be close to Manti on Friday, you should check out this show, because it's going to be amazing.
