It's so interesting to hear about your day and everything you've gotten to experience! I'm embarrassed to admit how many times I've tried texting you this past week and then realizing that you don't have a phone! It's killing me!! <br />I stopped home on Wednesday with the girls while we were in Rapid to go shopping. You'll be happy to know that Mom, Dad, Alex and Payton have no idea what to do with themselves when you're not there! It's pretty funny!<br />I'm so proud of you for the work your doing over there and very jealous of what you're getting to experience. I can't wait to hear alllll about it! Sending you lots of love from everyone here in Spearfish!:) Miss you more than you know! Be safe, have fun and work hard! Love you!!<br />-Kahli!KahliMillerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07896587667355996789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838306873108654151.post-75125205317145356782012-04-15T22:35:11.158-05:002012-04-15T22:35:11.158-05:00Kia - just as fair warning, I believe you have a r...Kia - just as fair warning, I believe you have a right to know that dad felt guilty after reading all of the blogs that the other kids' families were cleaning their rooms, BUT he, of course took it a step further - he has moved both you and Garet to the loft storage in the shop. He figures it will just be easier when you both go back to college in August! ;-) Glad to hear you are having fun and working hard! Keep it up and know you are in our prayers!

Catherine, Jen and I went to breakfast after 7:00 mass and saw Leslie...she misses you! I told her I would give her blog address so she could keep up with what you are doing. Update- dress is completely finished! Can't wait for you to put it on. I am going to make some ch. chip cookies today:) you can have some when you get home, that is if Jen, Ryan and I don't finish them off first, HA. Since you have finished H.Games#3, maybe I should start #1. Oh, got message from library...book is in! Something else to look forward to when you get home. Mark, got together with 'the gang' on Friday, and everyone said to tell you hi. We all missed you and thought of you as we enjoyed pizza and wings...yes Catherine, potato pizza!

He attempted to run away yesterday. He said he didn't want to live here anymore. He took one of my fake diamond rings "so he could sell it to buy a house of his own," a small bottle of hand sanitizer "in case his hands get dirty," and a blanket and pillow. Off he went down the road in the rain, tellng me to "have a nice life!" He made it to the grandma's house next door and said he"changed his mind and was just kidding." And that was the end of his little adventure. It's still raining. We will go to church this morning and then go to Walmart. Cooper's are making me feel guilty about the room cleaning. I may change your sheets and clean up your room.

Siri is in Minneapolis at a volleyball tournament, Dalton had a track meet in Custer and spent the weekend there with Grandma and Grandpa and so mom and I are experiencing empty nesting. I do have to say she has been able to get out of the house faster in the mornings since she doesn't have to wait on you. Does everyone have to wait on you there too? It sounds like you are having a lot of fun and getting some work done too. I knew you were going to love it there. Keep working hard and get Rylee going again. I'll try not to tease her about it.

I think Bubba the frog would LOVE a friend! So glad Witt was able to come to the rescue. I cannot express how proud I am of all of you! You are experiencing something that very few people get to.
