November!

Here are the highlights!
Blue Bell Ice Cream is back! Before I came to Texas I thought all these southerners were crazy for loving their Blue Bell, but then I tried it and I understood. It's dang good! Then they had a bad listeria outbreak.They closed for 6 months to deeply disinfect their factories and are now redistributing their ice cream. Because I'm not a child, not pregnant, elderly or have a weakened immune system- We were all over taking what some would consider a risk and buying some! Cookies and Creme is my favorite and it did not disappoint! I am happy to have Blue Bell back.
I had my first cub scout meeting at my house. We have four 9 and 10 year old boys full of energy. It’s a fun age though. I like that communication skills are there and most of the time they still have respect for authority like figures. One of the scouts was surprised to find out I didn’t have any kids in cub scouts. It’s pretty common for parents of scouts to be called to help out. He said, “Wait you don’t have any kids? Wow your life must be easy! Kids are hectic.” I just had to laugh because it’s true to a point! And he's only 9! Kids are funny.





Bugs and Grass. I have under appreciated the fact that I'm used to not seeing a lot of bugs. Right now I'm seeing gnats (a ton of gnats) and grass spiders. I found 4 of them in my house in the last 2 days. They're not poisonous or aggressive but dang they look big (because of their long legs) and are fast and skiddish. I am also determined to make our grass awesome. We have a bad case of the crab grass but it doesn't know that it's going to die SOON. 

Apparently there are rabbits in the open space behind us that sometimes come into our yards but I have yet to see one! And I would really like to! We've heard a lot of coyotes yipping at night when makes me feel like I'm camping.

Overall we're doing really good right now. As I've been reviewing the conference talks I am reminded of the importance of praising God through all times in life. When you look around, you can see His hand in all areas of life. It's humbling to realize just what you've been given. It's important to thank Him for it too.

Went to my coworker's bridal shower


Dan brought home a giant trophy for 2nd place softball league for CPAs

I love flying

We went to the BSU vs AF game and it was 30 degrees the whole time. I was freezing cold but it was so fun. I got to see Kaelynn and Leslie from ICCU. What a treat!


Dan ran a 10K while we were there. I couldn't get over how cold it was but he did awesome!


We got to see our friends Blake and Camille and their little dude Tucker, He's so big now!

haha just kidding, I was all over this CHOCOLATE PIE

We colored and played a lot of games

We spent our time shopping (of course!)... multiple times and stores... :) We worked out really hard and were very sore. We played lots of games, saw old friends, ate lots of really good food. My momma fed us well! It was so amazing to be home and so relaxing. We a nice break from reality! The night before we had to go back to work Dan and I were coming to the fact that we had to be adults the next day haha. We have since recovered and are gearing up for Christmas. I LOVE this season!

We had a lot going on this weekend! Some good. Some bad. I woke up to this Friday the morning What a great way to start a Friday morning without work! I seriously have the kindest man ever. He's so thoughtful After he got out of class and before I had class we snuck in a last minute temple session . Who knew it would be so packed on a Friday mid day! I rushed (because I hate being late) but it was so worth it once you get there and just feel peace . That evening after classes and homework, we drove down to Idaho Falls for a family BBQ the evening before Logan and Amanda got married . The BBQ was great and I loved seeing all my family and meeting some of Amanda's family. I even got a picture with Sister Bullock :) All while this was happening my parents were supposed to be making the trip to IF and be there for the BBQ. I had heard briefly from my mom that Dad wasn't able to get off work and that they would be late. Then it got the point they wou

This is Important

So I've given this a lot of thought and with some advice from Dan the man, we've decided to go ahead and make our blog private from now on. This means that only those whose emails are on my readers list can view it. WHY Lately I've been thinking about the publicity and the openness of the internet and I don't want my security and my family's security to be a worry because the things I post on my blog. I realized that the reason I am blogging is; 1) For me as a journal and to record and read back on fun memories and 2) So family and friends can stay in contact and feel like we're apart of each other's lives even when we're far apart. Although the page views of all my Facebook friends and others reading my blog has been really nice (I'll admit, I like the numbers) I've realized that I enjoy some privacy more. SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? This means that if you would like to continue reading our blog that I am going to need your email address

  Love My boys! Nate's face! Brooks being silly Another round of sickness in our house. Brooks always seems to get a headache, spike a fever, pass out somewhere and wake up later feeling most of the way better. This time we ended up getting cold symptoms afterwards. When I got sick I was tested and whatever it is it's not covid. Dan got it last and was sick into February. It was lingering so he tested again and it was again negative. So whatever we had was mild, still not fun and stuck around forever. We have this cute bible book about Noah's ark. Carson starts looking at it and pointing to Noah says, "Santa Claus!" Oh. yes I can see how you think that haha. So we kept telling him no, it's Noah. He points to Noah's wife and says, "Mama!" hahaha so I'm either Noah's wife (they look very old in the book) or Mrs. Claus. Not sure whether to be offended or not haha! We sold our small freezer and upgraded to this beauty! I love it! I love being
