It's all happening so fast

Holy Crap. I get married to my best friend, the love of my life, the most amazing and perfect girl in the world in just a short 3 days. This coming Saturday we will be married at 2 PM in the Salt Lake Temple. I hope that all of you got an announcement, as long as you sent me your address you got one. I cannot describe how excited I am to be married. Just about all of my friends are married, and they love it. I even have friends that are having children in the next few months. Life is happening really fast, but I am LOVING IT.

Okay, so I currently am looking for a job, I have had a few leads, but nothing has panned out. I feel like an old 49er, in the fact that everyone says "Go here! They are hiring, and you'll fit the job perfectly!" or "Go There! I will put a good word in for you!" "You'll find Gold here! or There!"... but as I dip my pan, it just comes back with rocks and dirt. no gold just yet. but do not worry! I am still looking! I'll find gold, or a job sometime soon, and if the Mayans are right, I won't even have to worry about it, haha.

Me and Kelly are doing awesome, we have our house where we will be living, all set up and ready for her to get all moved in. I have already moved in, and we have moved most of her things over. I don't know how most people do it, but it seems to be working for us (having all my things, and most of her things here that is).

Justin is still out in Cheyenne Wyoming, doing really well, but he talks like he will be transferred in the next few weeks. Which sounds about right, I was transferred just about every 5-7 Months, and that is where he is at. His letters are amazing, and if you aren't getting them weekly then you should call my mother and get added to the email list.

Kelly had the opportunity to go through the Temple on the 16th, and she loved it! I loved it! There is something awesome to be said about going to the Temple together. I am grateful for this gospel, and for the Blessings that it provides in the Temple.

Okay, I feel like this makes sense, and also I feel like it is getting long. I know there is a TON of things that I am leaving out of this, but it covers the basics. I love you all, and want you to follow me on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and Google+, Oh and Tumblr if you know what that is. I will see you either Friday night, Saturday night, or on the 7th if you are down in Idaho. Be Good! Stay Sweet!

Justin's Big Send off!

Hey,
so this past week we sent Justin off on his Mission to The Colorado Denver North Mission. But we had to take him to the MTC first. and so this video is all about that!

I Hope that you guys Enjoyed it! he will make an amazing Missionary. Im proud to call him my brother.
If you wanna write him, the address is on the video description on YouTube, and while he is in the MTC you can Dear Elder him. just go to www.DearElder.com and make sure you put all the Mission info in correctly, and he will get it really quickly.

So, this whole week has been pretty good. Sunday Justin gave his Farewell Speech in church. And afterwards we had a Nacho Bar at the Town Hall in Menan. it was a really good time. lots of good food, and lots of family and friends came out to support! So if that is you, Thank You!
(you can listen to his speech here http://soundcloud.com/josh-e-franz/justins-farewell-address )

Monday Justin was set apart as a Missionary, and Riley and Layton were in town so they got to join us as we went to the Stake Center to meet with President Cook. that was a really awesome experience to stand in and be a part of setting Justin apart as a Full Time Missionary for the Church.,

Tuesday we left for Utah at about 2, on the way out, we stopped at the airport to see Travis come home from his mission! the first and only time in 4 years that Justin and Travis will see each other. that was pretty crazy to think about. They were both set apart missionaries, and one is leaving and the other coming home. That night we ate at some good ole Litza's Pizza, and I went and visited with Kelly.

Wednesday morning, Me and Justin woke up early and headed to the SLC Temple to do a session. it was really cool! the spirit was really strong, and I loved going to the temple with my brother. He is an incredible guy! As soon as we got out of the Temple we headed to the Church Office Building to see Grandma and Grandpa Hix, and where they are at serving their mission. They really LOVE what they do! and you can feel it when you talk to them. They are SO Happy there. We took the tour with them, and went over to the Joseph Smith Building for a Cinnamon roll! after we got back to G-pa & G-ma Franz' house I changed clothes and then Headed out! and that's where that video comes from ^^
After dropping him off we went back to Temple Square, and I got to hang out with Kelly for a little bit longer before we had to leave to come back to Idaho.

The rest of the week has been spent waiting for Justin to shoot us a letter or an Email, and today we finally got one from him. he said his P-Day is on Wednesday in the MTC, and that he will write us all back then. so be sure that you sit down and take a Minute to write him and let him know how you are doing, he would Love to hear from all of you!
Have a Great Week!
