Lots of things going on

Holy Cow we are busy. So many things going on right now. I am suprised I am taking the time to blog. I consider this my journel, so I have to stay caught up or I will fall behind and not be able to catch up. Anyways last weekend we headed over to Salt Lake for Wades' mission reunion. WAY FUN :) It so happend to be General Conference, what an added bonus huh? We stayed with our best friends the Jarrets'. Cody is Wades' mission buddy and now one of our closest friends along with his adorable wife Marissa. They are expecting a baby! Wa-hoo. Great news for them and for us. We needed at least one of our friends to have a baby. We were lonely being the only one with a child. She is due 2 days after Brooklyns' birthday. YAY, I am so excited for them. Anyways, Jena was able to meet up with me and Wades' grandma for conference. Wade decided to stay and play tackle football, and watch Brooklyn. Well, Marissa watched Brooks, and wade played football. We both could not have gone to conference, so I am glad he had fun playing football. He looked forward to it all week. We also got to see Winter and go shopping. I got some cute things for Brooklyn.



The Salt Lake Temple is pretty. I have never been inside that one. One of these days we will get to go inside. It makes me sad that there are always loud protesters. I hate that, but love being around the grounds of the Temple.



Here is inside of conference. We were lucky to be there while President Iring and Elder Cook got called. Conference was amazing. If you enlarge the picture you can see President Hinckly. I love him and his hilarious sense of humor:)


Here is Wade with some of his mission companions. Cody is the guy on the bottom left corner. After the reunion some of us headed to Wingers(YUMMY) to eat. It was so much fun to see Wade and these guys talk about their mission and all of the memories. I will tell you one thing, Wade was a very popular missionary. Wade hates the word popular, but that is all I know how to descriobe him. Everyone told him that Wade was their fav. and that they would always try to rig it come split time to be with him. He was very admired. I loved sitting back watching him. I will never know the Elder Iverson part of Wade. Only these guys know him that way, so way cool to be there to see and hear their stories.


I could blog and leave out pictures of Brooklyn. She is the best part of any blog. Here she is in the car on the way down. She tried stuffing that whole thing in her mouth. She was perfect the whole way down:) What a good little girl I have:)

Here she is on the way home from Utah, at Mcdonalds. Anytime she sees a cup and a straw she immediately attacks it. She loves them. Funny girl.

Well we are almost packed and ready to move into my parents house. Wa-hoo, not! My family is so generous in letting us stay there, but as any couple would feel, we are not excited. We found some great renters and now we are going to proceed with living at my families, payoff some debt and in the mean time start the process of buying a bigger home. Depending on how long it takes to have the home built is the time we will be at my families. We are unsure at this point.

I have sooooo much homework I should be doing right now. I have a midterm on Monday and a paper due tonight, I have not yet started and I also am on the Enrichment commitee and we have our home making tonight that I have to attend! Too much going on in my life right now! Everything is going perfect in our lives otherwise. We are all happy and enjoying these days!

Wow, you guys are busy right now! I have been waiting to see the pictures from Utah. Cody and I are so glad you guys stayed with us, next time we have to take more pictures though! Good luck moving and I promise living with your family won't be that bad and the time will fly by....but if you ever need a vacation you can always stay with us, we would love that! Hopefully we will see you around Christmas, right? We need to take you guys to the Salt Lake Temple, you would love it!
