October

This month has been busy and I'm so glad (I like being busy, for the most part). I need Andrew to teach me how to change our RAW formatted pictures from our SLR camera into JPEG form so I can post some pictures from this month.

A week ago all of Andrew's family was in town for his dad's wedding reception. Its so much fun when all his siblings and all our nieces and nephews get together. That same weekend we had a "sister's week" (just 2 and a half days) up at the cabin in Heber and I got to spend my first night without Simon! It was a lil sad, but mostly really nice. I didn't take any pictures, so I'll have to get them from my sister-in-laws.

I just recently got called to be the primary music chorister in my ward....yeah I can't sing! We have our yearly program in a few weeks so I'm busy getting up to speed on that.

With Halloween around the corner we've been trying to do all the "festive" activities that are around here. We went to a place in West Jordan called Gardner Village. Its basically a lil village of cute craft type shops and in October they decorate it for Halloween. I thought there would be a great pumpkin patch there, but there wasn't, so that is still on my list of things to do before the end of the month.

We've been trying to take advantage of the good weather lately, cause you never know how long its going to last. Last weekend we went up past Vivian Park (in Provo Canyon) and had a picnic with my brother-in-law and his family. They have four boys who are all so cute and funny to be around. They love Simon and can't wait until he's big enough to run around with them (I can't wait too).

Here's a photo of my sister Julianne and Simon. We are lucky enough to get to hang out with her every Sunday. We'll miss you while you are in California!



Simon's blessing was last month and I'm just now uploading the photos to our computer (we did not take enough). We did use your blanket grandma! Thanks!
