Where did October go?

Wow this month has flown by... where did it go? So many things going on, where to begin.

Rewind a few weeks back and Morgan had her 20th birthday and it was General Conference. The next week Morgan flew home for some family time and we went to the USC football game. About that same week I was released from my calling in the Stk YW presidency. We had a Stk activity planned for Oct 15th.  The YW made a glass block temple craft and I put together a fun game of random temple trivia. Such as: Name the temples that don't have an angel Moroni on top. So I was getting used to the idea of not working with the YW and the night before our last activity I was called in to talk to President Zimmerman and was asked to serve as 1st counselor in the Stk YW Presidency. So I'm still working with the YW.  

This last weekend was Parents weekend at BYU and I flew up to Utah to attend it with Morgan. I decided to take Jake along as well. We had 2 jam packed days of BYU events. We toured the theatre department and saw more then we ever wanted to see. Our tour guide was very adventurous and took us through prop construction, several stages, sewing rooms, costume rooms, prop storage rooms, practice stages, more stages, showed us all the things she disliked about each theatre and how difficult some of these problems were for directors to work with. It was interesting at first... but 1hour and 20 min later... I was done! We also toured the bookstore and got to sample some fudge and learn a few tid bits about that area. Like they make 7000 lbs of fudge a year and the majority of that is sold during Womens Conference.

That night we attended a Luau and watched the Living Legends perform. The food was great and the entertainment even better.

Saturday we woke up early (but not early enough) and participated in a 5k. We were still at the registration table putting our numbers on when the start gun went off. We power walked and made sure we passed anyone wearing jeans. Then we were off to a very exciting football game, BYU vs UNLV it was a nail biter down to the last second. But BYU won 42-35. Truly a game of time management.

Sunday we attended church with Jarrod and Jessica and then had a yummy Hungarian dinner with them. That evening we went back to Salt Lake and stayed at Jesse's new house. Its so nice to have family that will open their home to you.  Monday Jesse took Jake and I to the airport for our return flight, which we ended up being delayed 40 min due to fog in LA. Nothing like sitting in the plane on the runway and  having the pilot shut off the engine until the fog clears in LA.  That put us late getting back, so I raced straight to work, changed into my scrubs, and apologized to my patient for being 15 min late for her appointment. Crazy crazy :)

So tonight being Tuesday I'm trying to catch up on laundry, dishes, paying bills and oh yeah we have a new enrichment leader and tonight was our first meeting at her house. And tomorrow is the trunk n treat night up at the church! So that's my life in a nut shell.  Lets hope November slows down but I doubt it!
