So I only have one more week or school and volleyball til my spring break! I can't wait. I'm just gonna take it one day at a time. I have been having tests like crazy and my body is breaking down because of so much volleyball but in a week, I will get a break. I am hoping that the sun will come up so that I can let me white legs see the light. My mom will be coming up my spring break week and I am very excited for that because it feels like forever since I have seen her last. Now for the last little whiles update:
First of all, Jonny got a calling! He got called as the PFR (physical facility representative) which is the guy that sets up who cleans the ward building every week. It was a bit of a surprise that he got called to that since he is 24 and usually it is older men that receive the calling. Also, we thought that for sure we would be grabbed and put into primary which we were totally looking forward to. Anyway, I am still calling free and just waiting for one to come my way.
We have learned to like our ward a bit more. It was definitely different from our last ward that we just absolutely loved! But we are beginning to make friends and get to know people more. We are excited just to be able to have our new place that we would take any ward that was given to us here. Speaking of our new place...we LOVE it!!! We have hung up pictures and cute decorations and its really feeling like ours. In our last place, Eve told us that we weren't allowed to put holes in the walls so we hardly had anything on the walls which didn't make it feel like home. In our new place (which I will post updated pictures) we have things up all over the place. We really love our place and although we don't know a ton of people that live around us, we still know those fun young couples in our ward that we have became friends with.
Jonny and I have found out that we both have three more semesters left before we graduated college!! HOLY SMOKES!!! I can't believe that it has gone by this fast. This will be my last year of volleyball. It has been such a great experience and I am very grateful for the fun times that I have had. I'm hoping to make it far this year with this team. I'm stoked for the season but when it will be over, I bet it will be a bitter-sweet feeling. My body needs a break and it will be super nice to be able to have some time with my husband. I keep telling my friends in my class, that one day, they just wait, I will get dressed up in real clothes with my hair done and my make-up done and feel like a normal student. One day....
One more thing, Jonny and I have decided that we want to start making homemade bread instead of buying it. We were buying close to two loaves of bread a week and it was just too much money that we were spending. So I talked to my ever-so-brilliant sister about what I needed to do and get (she makes homemade bread too) and found out that it will only cost about 70 cents a loaf! Crazy huh? And not only that but it tastes so much better. I have just been loving to cook ever since we moved because now we have our own kitchen. I love baking and cooking and pretty much trying different recipes. Sandy has also shown me some pretty amazing websites with recipes on it that I am dying to try. I love cooking and I don't even know why. I just wish I had more time, like being a stay at home mom, to do more of it!
Ok I think that is pretty much our life update. I will try and post some of the pictures of what we have done with our apartment soon. We love you all and hope to post again soon!

From what I hear (and the two days a week I experience it), being a stay-at-home mom doesn't mean more time. ;) You should be a stay-at-home wife--then you'd have nothing but time! (And literally nothing, since you probably won't have money either...)
Cute steph :) I love reading about your life and your updates. So good to see you this weekend. I'm looking forward to your games this year!
