We met Scott's parents at the BYU bookstore a couple days ago so the kids could pick out some BYU sweatshirts for Christmas. I was shocked how much the Wilkinson Center and the bookstore have changed. I love BYU and want my kids to love it to...and go there someday. It brought back a lot of wonderful memories to be on the campus. I admit I got a little teary eyed. Scott just rolled his eyes at me. He likes to tease me about how much I love hiking the Y, going to the Creamery, eating at Brick Oven, and how I always point out to the kids my college days jogging route and the apartments I lived in. My family moved to Europe when I was a sophomore at BYU, so BYU became home to me. It was a great time of life...and a hard one too, but mostly great. It was the place I went from teenage to adult and figured out what I wanted out of life. One day I hope to go back and get my PhD and then teach there. Maybe we'll even move to Provo and I can make Scott hike the Y and run my old jogging route regularly :)

Okay, so that was the cutest Christmas card ever! It made me miss you and your cute family! We will have to come up and go skiing with our families sometime.
Oh, I didn't know you were such a passionate zoobie!
