lets see...where to start...well thats not so much of a hard question, i only have one place to start! So it has come to this....I'm moving!

It all started last weekend. My parents were on vacation in denver on what seemed like on a whim they decided to move there. I was originally going to meet them up there for general conference but they bailed out to save on money for their move. I was upset at first but got over it when I found out that I had three extra tickets and exactly three of my friends from cali would be there. It all seemed too perfect to "just happen" like that. I ended up having a wonderful time and it was great to see them again.

So now my parents are going to colorado. This didnt bother me much. I was just too happy to see my friends again. All in all my options were to go with them, stay here in vegas, or something else. I immediatly jotted down my options on paper and wrote down all(well the important ones) the pros(there arn't really any cons specifically) on paper. My results were California-3 Las Vegas-2 Colorado-2 and Utah-1(i think thats what they came out to) Anyway I prayed about it and thought about it. I told my dad previously that i didnt like vegas (may have prompted him to move maybe) and missed california. So i guess he called my brother up and told him the situation. My brother talked it over with his wife and they agreed to help me out temporarily. I was unsure about it at first but as time has gone and communicated some information feel more sure about the decision. Our friend george seems to be in with all this and is excited about me being able to end up 4 wheelin with him in our jeeps(i still need my license but will get it in cali so there is not so much cross-state difficulties) There are some issues with timing with all of this because my dad is taking the jeep up to denver because its the only car we have with a trailer hook-up. Im ok with this anyway because i actually want to finish up my semester at school. Anna's kids will be moving in here afterwards. They seem excited about it cuz the rest of their family is over here. ONe thing that helped me make my decision a lot was a thought that came to my mind. "Choose what you want and not what your parents want" I realized this was something that made me miserable in vegas-it was something that i didnt choose for myself. Sure there have been some things i have learned and friends i have made but it has never entirely felt "right". My dad mentioned to me one day that George has a job for me over there but i have not heard anything about that from anyone else. Last i knew he was fixing garage doors.

So i think that is the bulk of my thoughts surrounding this event and i often think of nephi and being lead by the spirit not knowing what i should do.
