Fall Is Here

Once again, I've left weeks in-between posts...someday I'll keep up with it! But until then, my posts will have to be summaries of what's been going on in my life. Mama came to visit a couple of weeks ago and we had an amazing time! We drove down to St. George with Aunt Bonnie and visited Aunt Gayle and family. It was great to see everyone and have a relaxing weekend. We ended our mini-trip with a session at the St. George temple, which I have never been to before. It was very old, but beautiful. Below is Mama and I standing in front of it. You can't really tell that's where we are, but it is!

After my mom left, some of my friends from Fort Collins, Ryan and Katie came to stay for the weekend. We had fun catching up and goofing off just like old times, and Katie and I spent the better part of Saturday at Liberty Park. In my opinion, its the best park I've ever been to. Below is a picture of the duck pond.

Fall is absolutely my very favorite time of the year. I love the "sweater weather" and the colors, and the smells. I love the corn mazes and the pumpkins and the halloween costumes. I love apple cider and warm blankets and being able to see your breath outside! The tree in our front yard is the only one on the block that has any color. Every other tree is still dark green, but ours is brilliant yellow! I had to take some pictures. Below is my favorite one.

The last update...it's Conference weekend! I look forward to watching General Conference every time, and this time has been especially fun. I was able to see some friends that I haven't in a long time. I had lunch with Jon and Mallory on Saturday, and then spent the evening with Stacy Lynn and Kara while Ryan and Dan and Jon Nash went to the priesthood session. It was so much fun to catch up with old friends. I'm excited for the conference sessions today. I love learning about the gospel and knowing the things that I should work on in my life.

My most wonderful friend Stacy Lynn!
