Fall time!

I have become a blogging slacker! Lately I have not had as much spare time so blogging has been put on the back burner, which is sad because I love it so much. Since my last super long update not a whole lot has happened. The 2nd was Labor day and I had the day off, I was supposed to work but someone took my shift so that was good. The night before labor day I stayed up till 3:30 am watching The Following with Nick. We are now done with the whole first season and have to wait clear til January...I might die in suspense. Anyway I woke up and got ready for the day then Bob and I hung out. We went to lunch, ran errands and just had a great day together.  On Wednesday the 4th we fed the missionaries! We love feeding them and chatting with them about their on going investigators. Plus Natalie made this amazing broccoli and cheese soup-it was delicious!! On Friday the 6th we did a huge group date with my 3 married couples-The Merrills, Eves, and Blacks. It was so much fun, we went to Texas Roadhouse then took pictures and walked around the Temple, and ended the night with a movie at the Eves. I love group dates with them so much and wish they happened more often.

On the 13th I attended a work party with Bob, his company rented out a couple theaters and it was so fun! We went to see Red 2, I haven't seen the first one but the second one was pretty good. Saturday the 14th Bob and I arose early-about 6am and drove to Mantito witness the Kester wedding!! I was so happy that Casey invited me and I wasn't going to miss it for the world. We arrived in Manti around 9:30, ate at millers then went to the Temple. It was so great once again to go inside with Bob, I love those sweet experiences with him and can't wait to experience more of them together. After the Temple we walked out and saw my sister Holly there, it was so great to see her and I love her so much. We then went to the luncheon after the happy couple came out. It was at the luncheon where I finally got to see Karissa and Tyson Church!! I love them and looked forward to seeing them real bad. We decided after the luncheon we would go to see their house in Mount Pleasant. I have not ever been to their neck of the woods so I figured while I was in the area I might as well. I seriously loved their cute little house and can't wait to get one of my own. It was so good to see them both and I miss Karissa so very much. After our detour to MP we headed up to Springville for the reception. It was very Casey-esque, it was rustic, vintage, and just her. I loved that it was outdoors and the backyard was just beautiful-they had stringed lights all over and two fire pits-my favorite! We talked, ate, saw the wedding party, took pics in a photo booth and then decided to head out.  Before we left though I did run into Emily Neeve!! It was so good to see her again I haven't seen her since she moved to Provo from St George.

After the reception we headed to bountiful where we were staying with my grandparents for the night. They are the best grandparents ever I love them both so much, they always go above and beyond for us and never complain about anything. I honestly can't remember the last time I heard my grandparents complain about anything. Sunday morning we woke up to a delicious breakfast to celebrate Dustin's birthday. After that Bob and I spend the day seeing family- we went to my uncle's, his mom's, and then my parents in Tooele for dinner. After dinner and dessert we went to my other friend Heidi's new house. I was in awe when I saw her cute little house, puppy, and all the land they own. It was so great to just sit and chat with her because it has been so long since we have done that. Monday morning we hung out a little with my family and then we had to say goodbye. I loved spending time with both our families and just spending time up north-I love it up there but I also love it down here..basically I just love Utah and all it's beauty!

On Thursday the 19th we had to opportunity to participate in a ward Temple night. The last 4 weeks the St George Temple has been closed so it was so good to be able to finally go again. After the Temple Bob and I went to Applebees with the Eves and Blacks for half priced appetizers and bingo. It was so fun and will definitely be a weekly or every other week tradition. On Tuesday the 24th my roommates plus the boys went to Yogurtland to celebrate Lindsey's 24th birthday..which happens to be today-HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINDS!! I Love you so much and am so happy that it is finally my turn to be your roommate!-but she is out of town for her special day and we were busy every night last week so that is why we went out on Tuesday. This past weekend not much happened, we sort of just hung out and didn't do much. Friday I studied, took two tests, then watched a movie at home with Bob! Saturday I cleaned the church, worked out like a maniac, (I even saw Randi at the gym it was awesome). Bob went paint balling that morning and then took me shooting that afternoon! I really do love shooting and I love sharing his passion and hobby. It's something he has done his whole life and I just love going with him and wish I did it more often. Last night I went to the Relief Society broadcast with Kira and then came home then watched a movie on the hill by the old airport with Bob. I loved it! I am baffled that him and I have never done that! I did it all the time two summers ago with my roommates. Fail! We are doing it more often though for sure.

Today was just a normal Sunday, went to church and felt the spirit so much, we had two newly baptized members in our ward this month and they are awesome. One bore her testimony today and she was solid, I am so happy for her and her decision to be baptized. This week is the end of September and beginning of October...I am ecstatic! I love the 10th month of the year for many reasons: the weather, general conference, Halloween, fall, leaves, pumpkin everything, haunted houses, corn mazes, birthday celebrations and just so much more!! I cannot wait to see what this October brings me!  Oh and sorry about the lack of pictures...my phone freaked out and I had to do a master reset and lost everything! All 1000 of my pictures and everything..I was so sad and am still a little bitter! Word to the wise: SET UP YOUR ICLOUD PEOPLE! It is so simple and will save all your pictures and apps. Mine is definitely set up now. That is all, I am done!
