I Don't Know About You, But I'm Feeling 22!!

Not only am I 22 years old (for 4 more weeks) I am also in my last day of my 22nd week of pregnancy. And Baby Girl just keeps growing! 
I absolutely love feeling her little kicks and wiggles. Pregnancy truly is amazing and is a complete miracle!

This week was eventful because on Thursday I got to go to the LA Temple with some Ladies in our ward. It was so great getting out of Bakersfield for the day and enjoying time at the temple. I really learned a lot this week and it was just what I needed to get through the rest of the week!  

"I looked out the window and I saw a Temple" 
This is kind of an inside joke with my Family. When my brother Jon and I were on road trips we played a game where I said a phrase and Jon would rap with it. We were driving in the Utah valley where there are like 13 temples around and so I said that phrase, and he was so mad because nothing really rhymes with Temple. LOL
(But there is the LA Temple from the street off to the left!)

Before our session began we walked around the temple grounds. I loved this statue of this family. It is crazy for me to think that Brad and I will have our own family very soon!  

On Friday, I got a letter from Japan! My Friend Shalie Fowles is serving an 18 month mission there. She has already been out for 6 months! We used to talk on the phone for hours before she left! I miss those conversations but glad we can write letters and e-mail! She is doing so good and loves Japan! 

Friday night we went to Centennial High School's football game. We have met a lady here named Michelle and she has started coming to church. We have really connected and her son, Andrew is on the football team. Andrew played an awesome game and even scored his first Varsity Touchdown last night! 
Brookelynne, Michelle's daughter came and loved sitting with us! She is such a cute girl and had such a great time!  

It was such a fun and exciting game! I of course loved watching the cheerleaders and the band and color guard!  We had a great night and were happy to cheer on the Golden Hawks with their victory!

We have had a great week this week! It is still in the high 80's here in Bakersfield! I think I will get a rude awakening this week when I fly home to Spokane on Wednesday! We are enjoying California a lot! Brad is very busy with work and has been staying late pretty often! I stay busy at home cleaning, cooking, and crafting! Life is good! Thanks for all of our love and support! We miss everyone so much! Have a great week!

Love, 

The Duffy's
