Had the BEST time ever...

Being back in NJ this time I had to say was the BEST trip in a long time!! Im not saying that every other trip has been awful....they have been good also but this trip just ROCKED!!!! :0)

Richard and I just did a whole bunch of fun things. Plus I also got to spend a whole lot of time wit his family and the people he is closest to within his church.

Just a few things that made my time so great...

Richard - well that one was obvious!! haha....we got to spend a lot of time together even with him working his usual days! We were able to be 'normal' the way it used to be. Go on our movie date nights, go get the grocery shopping, do laundry....I know most of that doesnt sounds fun but we enjoy it as long as we do it all together! :0)
We also got to go to Church together which was really good. I met people who knew his Father when he was alive and they joked about Richard and how he was as a child! Then we also went to Richards church where he considered most people members of his own family. It was nice to meet the people from both churches and see how much Richard is loved by so many people!

NYC - Everytime Richard and I go into the city we have a good laugh and this time was no exception! We went to the Charmin restrooms in Times Square and oh boy is that an experience on its own....check out the webpage: http://www.charmin.com/en_US/enjoy-the-go/index.php
This was hilerious! Here is one picture we got taken of us in one of the photo op areas:

Yeah so as you can see, we DO love to joke around!!! ha-ha

Family - Because Richard was working his usual schedule, I spent a lot of time with his sister Tina who is amazing! Awilda, Richards mom who is also amazing...really this woman is the best...I could not have asked for a better mother-in-law!
Also Richards brother Steven who is adorable and his other brother Jun who is not adorable but is a great help with us. He is always willing to help us out when he can and is also very funny...especially when he trys to immitate my accent!! Jun's wife was also there and she is really nice, she loves to have a good laugh which is my book is great!!!

All the family members made me feel so at home this trip and I dont know if it was because it was Thanksgiving or what it was....but this trip I just felt like I was actualy a member of the family! It was so nice to feel that.....they have always included me in family occasions and have always tried to involve me in many events. But this time just felt different.
When I said my good-bye I cried a lot with everyone, which I dont usually do! I mean that in the nicest possible way....but this time I actually couldnt control my tears! :0( Was so sad!

Thanksgiving - I have had Thanksgiving before but this was the first FAMILY thanksgiving of many to come I know! It was a great day, MIL asked me to make a dessert, which was no problem....I made the cookie log! Everyone LOVED the log and of course now every year will be the dish waiting after the main course!! lol
After dinner we played a board game which like any family got very competitive and was so funny!!

Future plans - Richard and I committed to a lot of future plans, which we are very excited about and praying very hard to achieve!

I am sure there were so many more things that made my trip awesome, but these were the main things that spring to mind right now! They also seem the most important out of them all!

Here is a picture which I love from this trip and already have in a frame!!
