Conference Weekend

We absolutely love Conference Weekend!

It is always wonderful hearing from the Prophet and Leaders of our Church.

Also, it is such a blessing to be able to spend it with family.

In between sessions on Saturday, the girls in my family made quiche!

It was delicious.

I say 'was' because the two I made are already gone!

Then, during the Priesthood Session, the girls went out and had some fun!

We went to Ladies' Night at Deseret Book.

The first 100 customers were each given a free plaque.

Of course we got there early so we could have a chance of getting one!

And it was a good thing we did...

There were so many ladies there, but we were fortunate enough to receive the cute gift!

Afterwards, we went to My Big Fat Greek Restaurant!

This place is always a favorite!

Overall, it was an amazing weekend!

I loved cuddling up to my hubby and listening to the wonderful talks given by the General Authorities.

It could not have been any better.

And a big thank you goes out to my mom and dad for making the weekend so fun and enjoyable!!!

Found It!

I know exactly what Austin and I are going to be for Halloween!

That's right... Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head!

Perfect for a big tummy!

I found these lovely costumes at Target.

There is only one problem though...

They are $40.00 each.

Maybe I will homemake them??

Sounds like a plan!

Saturday Night!

After the Relief Society Broadcast, my night was spent shopping with my mom and little brother!

It was wonderful!

[Austin was unfortunately doing homework...]

We went to Burlington Coat Factory, Mor, K-Mart, and Target.

And guess what?!

We bought some more baby supplies for the little guy growing in my tummy!

By far the best purchases tonight were:

[Thank you to my mommy!]

and

Ahhh, we are so happy to have finally found the right bedding!

Austin likes the sports theme so we have looked everywhere for something nice and not too pricey.

And we finally found it. :]

LIFE

This is my little brother, Kevin.

Last night we played the game of LIFE.

We had a great time! I love how he always gets so into the game and acts like it is his real LIFE.

This got me thinking. In real LIFE, wouldn't it be nice...

...to get money that easily?

...to buy stock and get a sure $10,000 every time someone spins your number?

...to get little LIFE checks frequently with hundreds of thousands of dollars on them?

...to only have to pay taxes once, if at all?!

...to be able to easily switch salaries with someone else who is making the big bucks?

...to get $15,000 here and there for doing good things in the community?

...etc.

Of course this would all be nice.

So, like my little brother, I started pretending it was real LIFE too.

And let me tell you, Austin and I ended up with a wonderful LIFE...

but I didn't need the game to tell me that!

A New Dental Hygienist in Training

This is me coming home from doing my dental hygiene observation hours today.

I did 8 hours today... Which means that I only have 32 hours left to do!

Woot woot.

I am fortunate enough to have a husband, who has a cousin, who has a husband, who is a dentist!

And let me tell you, he is not just a dentist, but a way cool dentist!

I would recommend his office, Goodman Dental Center, to anyone and everyone!

They are so nice and professional there.
The hygienists and assistants are way good; and I am lucky to be able to learn from them.

And their office is b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l.

I feel so fortunate that this is where I will be doing all of my observation hours that I need in order to apply for the Dental Hygiene School at MCC.

Wish me luck. :]
