Hello Everyone

When I get to A.Z. all I have to do is get my licence at the mvd, then transfer it over to a U.T. one when I get back, at least that's what they said when I called, hopefully it is that easy. I have till November 2nd till I can re-take my test. I am praying that I can take it that day or, at least that week. So I guess Kenny has been doing real well in getting to know the morman religon and says he claims it and knows it to be true! I am so excited about that and am so glad I could introduce it to him, and help him along the way (mom and dad also played a big part in that). He thanks me almost every time I talk to him. He says he's thinking about the day he wants to get baptized, he wants it to be soon, but doesn't want to rush things, that was also the advice of the missionaries. They told him he can do it when he feels ready and can finish the lessons, if he isn't done with them by the time he wants to get baptized. So here is my thinking, and also the answers I've gotten from my questions regarding this topic: The first thing is that after 6 months from the date of his baptism we can get married. We would wait to get sealed because he has to be active for a year. The part that I am unsure about ,that means the most to Kenny , is that when we're married he wants to stay down there untill his grandparents pass. I really don't want to do all that because that means more moving and switching jobs and all that, but it means a whole lot to Kenny that we're down there for them. I told him I would do that for him, I just really don't want to get stuck down there, for whatever reason, and not be able to come back to U.T.. He told me we would only make 6 month leases on an apt. so we could leave right away, and that we don't have to wait for him to find a job down here because dad told him already that he could work for him. I guess when you weigh it out (my concerns and his concerns) Kenny's not really asking for much, and maybe I'm being selfish to be concerned about the things I don't want to deal with:moving and transfering jobs. I know how important his grandparents are to him, and I would never leave my family when they were about to die.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If I don't get a job now then it'll be harder for me to get a job there (and here) because I have been out of school for so long and have no other expereince. So I would have to get a job now and then transfer or quit so I can go to A.Z. and get a job there, then ultimatly have to do the same thing so I could come back. Which I would not wait for a job to be lined up (if I didn't transfer) down here I would just leave and then find a job when I got back. I don't know. I guess it'll be easier to figure it out when the time is closer, because I'm not going to go anywhere till we get married. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I guess I should start planning for that soon too. I hope everyone can go down there because his family wouldn't be able to come down here. I guess we worry about that later too, because it wont be for 6 months after his baptism. Anyways........... I study everyday for my test and basiclly that's what my day consits of, I do have to start looking for a job, and picking out the very basics of the wedding decerations, I also have to quit being so lazy and start working out. Well I hope you all aren't bored of my rambling, love you all and talk to you later. There Crystal I finally did it. LOL....

LOL, Amber, doesn't it feel great, now I can quit hounding you!

That is great that Kenny really wants to get baptized! Hopefully we'll all be able to go down for that as well! Unless he comes up here, either way, hopefully we will be able to be there to share it with him!

All the other stuff, marriage, moving, jobs, etc will work themseleves out when the time comes. There is no need to stress over them at the moment, if they are meant to be they will be worked out one way or another..

my favorite quote...

everything will turn out right in the end, if it isn't right, it isn't the end.

love that...

anyways, I hope you are having fun studying! I know I would be.. :) lol.
Talk to you soon
