Sundays in Vernal

I love Sundays. They are days to relax, and think about what is important. Today I spent 5 hours at church; this is outstanding for me because of the fact I haven't been in a while do to travel and sleeping through my alarm... But two hours of that was spent singing. I love singing in church choirs. I feel like I'm sharing my talent and also I love the spirit music brings. This week was different as my friend Amber Rust was not here. It was different attending this ward without her there! But, I still miss that ward, and am eager to move back to attend it full time.

I also had the opportunity to visit my grandparents. I love visiting family. Even if I just sit there and listen to the endless conversations about the past, present, and future (which are always the same) I feel like a child again going to visit grandma and grandpa.

This weekend has already been one to put in the books. After a 6 hour adventure home, I had date night with my sister Nicky. It was the funnest time I've had with her in a long time, mostly because we didn't do anything. We just chilled, and watched a movie. Of course treats were involved, they never can't be in the Gardner family. But I just loved spending time with her. I'm glad I will be here another week, because we are definitely doing that again.

Saturday I spent the day with my friend Ali. Hahaahhah the good ol' days of just eating, movies, and doing nothing. We also got to see our high schools production of "The Scarlet Pimpernel" which was pretty good, and very humorous. We then went to Jades house to celebrate her birthday. I had a blast that night; spending it with my high school friends (besides Amber of course and several others).

I'm really excited to have a laid back week at home. My mom has already been extra nice doing my laundry, and having breakfast ready for me when I wake up. It's just a large treat after living on my own for so long. I do have homework to do, but 7 days is a lot; I can take a couple days off :) Right?

The thing I loved the most is when my niece Gracy called me Uncle Freakerd. That was THE funniest thing I have ever heard. It made me laugh hysterically. Freakerd is one of my many nicknames at home, and Gracy must have picked it up from Nicky and linked it to my name. Because she called me both all night. First it was Rhet, then it was Freakerd, then came Uncle Freakerd. But she called me Rhet some more. I just couldn't help but to laugh.
