missing you all

well family; the semester has started off just dandy and here i am already in my 4th week! marlene i was pleasantly surprised when i got on here to find you have posted :] i should have known i could count on you to have an updated post.

::this is a surprise smiley just for you marlene because you surprised me with your post::

i was just thinking of you all today as i was able to chat with erica for a while tonight on gchat and had a nice conversation with dad and mom on the phone the past couple nights. i really miss all of you. its weird how busy and occupied my time can be and i don't realize how long it has been since i called home. but i do think of all of you all the time.

i hope everyone is doing fabulously; as it sounds like you all are from the updates i receive. i can't help but anxiously anticipate the Hawaii trip, just like Marlene said. it is going to be SO great!! dad and mom i don't think we can ever thank you enough for all the work and planning you've put into this trip so far. you really make the most amazing family memories for us.

love you all xooxox
