Over the last year and a half since I've moved to Connecticut I've been able to visit my family 9 times. Every trip is crazy, busy, and completely fun! When I'm home during the summer it's camping, rodeo, white water rafting, and lot's of outdoor time with the neices and nephews. During the holidays I take the few days I get off to travel through 3 different states to visit all the famly. I first visit my Grandma and cousins in Utah then drive up to Idaho to spend Christmas with my sisters and their families. Then it's up to Washington to visit my brother and his family. And it's back to Idaho after that to have a fun filled New Year's Eve, staying out till the wee hours of the morning, only to fly out early the next morning to go back to work.
Spending time with my crazy, big family is the best!, and I can't wait to go home this summer.
I'm working here in Connecticut till June when my parents and maybe my sister will come out to go sightseeing around the northeast and I'll go home with them... :)
This last summer I was able to go home twice. Once in June then again in August. In June I went home for a week and I was there when my little sister had her first baby. A little girl they named Hadley Sarah. She's adorable and it's so fun to have another little niece.
In August I went home again for the Nielsen family reunion. There was camping out in the backyard, potluck at Lucky Peak, going to the Twin Falls Temple open house, family pictures, rodeo, and lots of cooking and chasing kids around.

For right now though it's nannying, hanging out with the friends I've made here, and seeing all the fun sights around Connecticut.
