Weekend

Last night we went to a party for my cousin. he came home from Iraq. He is in the Army and this was his second time there. He had been gone for a long time. It was so nice to see him. His wife prepared a bonfire party at the beach and it was so much fun. The wind was a little too strong but it was still a good time. He looks good and is totally buff. he must have lifted weights every day there or something. He had some big guns!! After the bonfire, we came home and then i headed out to Sam's club since we desperately needed dog food. we only had enough for one more day for the mutts!! Dadi and I watched x-men the last stand and it was really good. I had never seen it so over the last week or so, we rewatched parts 1 and 2 and then watched the last stand that we had taped on our dvr. it was really good and sad as well. i usually don't like those actiony movies, but i like the x-men. i think it might have something to do with wolverine though. he's awesome.
Today we went to church and had a good morning. My lesson went well and to be honest, i didn't really prepare. i should have taken more time on it and studied, but i just went for it and talked about all sorts of different stuff. It was on the importance of life so we talked about animals and plants and trees and people including people of different races and people with disabilities. I also explained that we all have disabilities and that some are just more obvious than others. i told them that my disability was retaining important information. I can remember a song after hearing it one time though. i told them how the only reason i know all fifty states is because i was taught a song about them in the fifth grade. they made me sing it for them and i did. it was funny. oh... and the relief society president asked me to play a part in a play they are doing for the relief society (which is the adult women's group) in November. so i am jessa and i have a few lines and then a 4 paragraph part that is all me!! I'm going to have to start studying . luckily we're going to have rehearsals as well. i am happy because my gym partner is in it too so we decided that we would annoy the rest of the gym with our rehearsals during our work outs. hopefully they won't revoke our gym memberships.
Tonight we are going to our friends house for dinner. i am looking forward to it. Tomorrow, i am going to Disneyland with my mom. she took the day off from work and we're going to take moma there and have a jolly old time. this week is going to be a busy one.
