first time for everything



It seems like "everyone" has a blog page now. What a great way to keep up on the happenings of friends and family!

Last night was our ward's Trunk or Treat party. Literally minutes before we left for the party, Addi changed her mind on what she wanted to dress up as. We bought an Eore costume for her at Costco, but decided she wanted to be a princess instead. SO ... she wore the dress she wore for Curtiss & Jessika's wedding back in March. She kept telling me, "I'm so pretty". She said she'd be Eore for TRICK or Treating, "just not TRUNK or Treating, Mom". Logan was a cop ... surprise, surprise, uh? They had fun and got lots of candy.

Today we are spending time as a family (a rare occasion). Logan has been asking to go to the Stillman Train Park in Scottsdale, so we're taking the kiddos there and then we'll stop bye and see my grandmother who lives near the park. We haven't seen her in a while.

I got a call from my brother in Iraq last night. It was SO great to hear his voice. I wish I knew the details of what he's doing, but I know the Lord will keep him safe. We've talked several times about the "what if's" and he reassures me if something happens to him, he will die doing what he loves and fighting for our country. I have come to some sort of peace with that answer, but it doesn't make it much easier knowing he's in harms way.

My parents are coming for Thanksgiving in a few weeks. I am beyond excited to see them. It's been since March that we have seen my folks. I miss shopping with my mom!! In December, I am taking a trip alone to California for my mom's graduation from nursing school. That trip I am really looking forward to.

I'm so excited to be on here ... if you have a blog page, send me the link!!

Happy Saturday!
