I went M.I.A. for a little while i guess..i seriously have been awful at updating!!!
Superstorm Sandy hit right after i posted my last post so that was a month and a half ago..goodness how the time flies!! When the storm hit we lost power for 8 days! ahh crazy!! but after those long 8 days it came back on and we were fine. We spent those 8 days over at her parents house which is about 45 minutes away from where we live. The damage that was done was more devastating that i can even tell, and people are still out of homes a month a half later. Its awful so please keep them in your prayers:) We had members of the church got together and did The Mormon Help Hands. Honstly nothing has humbled me so much because looking at the destruction that it did just crushed me. To think that we have everything we need adn no damage done to our home makes me so grateful!!

For thanksgiving i went to Woodloch with my host family! Woodloch is in Pennsylvania, in the middle of no where. It reminds me of Island Park, Idaho!! But it is the funnest place. It's a huge family resourt with a million family games, competitions, and basically anything you could think of. I got my own room and it was massive, the closet was a huge walk in closet almost bigger than the entire room!! We ate a lot of food and had a blast. I didn't just have to watch the kids the entire time either..my host family let me go and do things that i wanted with the cousins which i was grateful for!! They are an amazing family:) It was an amazing Thanksgiving!!!

I went on my first date in 15 months with the little handicap boy who is 7. He is very low on the spectrum but still not completely there! He always is cuddly with me and gives me kisses!! Deanna (my host mom) told me the other day that he has never liked or felt so comfortable with someone so much adn that she can see a difference in his behavior! Its amazing to see a difference, adn what that makes just by being an "older sister" to him! He melts my heart!! Cutest boy ever! We went to a local restaurant called Friendly's and than to the movies, Wreck It Ralph (a must see)!!! He ate all three bags of popcorn..what can i say, he LOVES popcorn!! He has such an amazing heart and makes my day!!

One of my best friends came out to New York to nanny!!! She lives in Westchester, which is above Manhattan..and i am on Long Island, so it's about a 2.5 hr train ride, so we usually never see each other except for weekends when she comes adn stays over and we go to church!! I love her being here though, getting to experience this with someone who i know and am comfortable with! I can't wait to see what more adventure we have together!! Love that girl:)
