My Grandpa Myntti passed away yesterday. He was 95 and led a remarkable life. He brought his family (my grandma, 2 aunts, and my dad) over to the US from Finland after he joined the church so his posterity could live in the Promised Land and find spouses to be sealed in the temple. I will be forever grateful that he did! He had a strong testimony and I have no doubt that he has been happily reunited with his sweetheart, Grandma Myntti. He had a picture of her by his bed that he would talk to which I found extremely sweet. I will miss him, but I know he is happy, out of pain, and in a better place. I am very thankful for my knowledge of the Plan of Salvation. I love you Grandpa Myntti!!!!!!!
It's mine! It's all mine! Finally! I closed on my beautiful townhouse last Tuesday then my mom, Nathan, and I (well, mostly them while I watched) started slowly moving my stuff over. So come on in for a visit!
My toes love my new, soft, squishy carpet!
Not being able to help was quite frustrating! I will be myself again someday. And I will bend, lift, help, run, and do whatever else I want to!!!! :)
On Friday, Liz and Eli came over to help me clean my apartment. Eli decided it was his job to clean the fridge - or at least sit in it!
Saturday was the main moving day. My amazingly wonderful family and friends moved me while I sat in a chair and watched. That was kind of frustrating, but I felt very blessed to have so many people willingly serve me. My friends Beth, Julianne, and Brenda were very kind to come help. Brother Hayes from my Bishopric and his son also came. Then there was mom, dad, Ryan, Becky, McKenna, Tanner, Nathan, Jeremy, Liz, Eli, and Grandma.
Grandma Shepherd got a flat tire on her trailer, so Jeremy had to change it. We had to have at least one fun adventure!
Aren't they the cutest kids you have ever seen? I love McKenna, Tanner, and Eli! They kept me company while the grown ups moved. I'm still a kid anyway, right!? So I should just play and not work, too!!! :)
Now comes the fun task of unpacking. Now I just have to get settled and decorate. Then you can all come over to party!!!
Jeremy and Ryan hung my blinds which was wonderful.
Mom has put together two cabinets for me. Now she has to shelves to put together. She is amazing!
I insisted that I got to put away everything in the kitchen. It is my house after all! :)
Ryan was the first person to use my front door, so I had to take his picture!
I will be back to work on Monday which makes me very excited. I'm ready to get back to real life and start living again! I miss everybody and am excited to see all of you. So, here's to the beginning of the next chapter of my life. Wish me luck!!!
