7 Hours is Nothin'

For me it isn't, anyway. If that's what it takes to get home, by golly, I will make that trip as often as possible! It was another great week at the Bailey home. I planned on staying a couple days, and ended up staying just over a full week! Who needs to go to class, right? It's just too hard for me to leave when I'm in the company of my fam. This trip was because of a missionary farewell. Aaron reports to the MTC on Wednesday. I must say it is very bittersweet for me. Aaron is my best friend, and I will miss him too much to even think about right now. But, the happiness I feel for him outweighs the sadness. I am so proud of him. What a wonderful example he is to me and so many others. I know he is doing the most wonderful and selfless thing he possibly could right now. He is devoting two years of his life to service. Two years will go fast...it better, anyway! In addition to the farewell, I was able to celebrate Halloween at home. That was fun for me because I could care less about Halloween! At home, I didn't have to worry about dressing up and going to all the parties. I could just sit at home and admire my nieces' and nephews' costumes, while eating homemade doughnuts (My mom's doughnuts are the best!) and caramel apples (My dad's caramel is scrumptious as well!). As usual, the Baileys did not disappoint. They made Halloween, and this trip another unforgettable one!
