Not Much Going On

Yeah, not much has been happening these last few weeks. Well, kind of. By not much happening, I mean fun things mostly. Midterm has hit so LOTS of stuff has been happening with school, but that's pretty much it.


p.s. We are excited for my family to come up for Halloween and celebrate though!

Trip to the Zoo!

On Saturday we got to go down to the zoo with my family. I hadn't been for a long time and Chase had never been (shock!) so it was really fun! There were lots of baby animals there this time and I think the funnest part was seeing my nephews reactions to all the animals.

Here's Heidi with Thomas and my mom and Michael in the background.

All of us looking at the giraffes.

Chase and Heidi so thrilled about the giraffes!

Project Bookshelves: Complete

After lots of this...


Came these!


Now we only have one more to finish up! They've ended up being quite the project, but I really like how they turned out. Now we just need more books to fill them up... you can never have too many books!

Uplifted

I finally got around to posting these from last weekend. We were able to go down to Salt Lake with Chase's family on Saturday and hit both sessions of conference. Thankfully we got in on standby for the morning sessions and then had tickets for the afternoon. It was a fun experience since I've never been to a live session before! I would have to say Elder Bednar's talk was my favorite; perfect recipe for a happy family. Conference is always my two favorite times of the year.



We also got to go see John Schmidt in concert last night with some of my family. I love his concerts! They're always so fun. He did kind of play Love Story Meets Viva la Vida, which I was very glad about. If you haven't heard this song, you're missing out! I like how good you feel after his concerts.



Thank goodness for uplifting things! :)
