A BUSY WEEK

A lot has happened since my Mom's birthday. My dad was in a rollover..he rolled six times. Thankfully, he is only scraped and bruised and a broken leg. I know that Heavenly Father was looking out for him. Josh opened his mission call the next morning. We had breakfast burrito after he opened his call. It was so wonderful to see him surrounded by those who love and support him. He has been called to the serve in the Seoul, Korea Mission.

 He enters the MTC October 31st. I am so excited for him and know he will make a great missionary.
Some highlights of the Zions trip that I just returned from.

• While driving down Becca walked into the Men's Bathroom at a gas station. The Urinals clued her in.
• I blessed a sneezer in the front seat...little did I know it was a drink being opened.
• Swimming in the beautiful pool

• Hiking and taking in the gorgeous scenery of Zion

• Getting to know friends better and making new friends.
• Using muscles I didn't know I had.

• Yummy dutch oven cobblers
• Spending time in the great outdoors....which also helped me get a tan.
• Riding in the car with Morgan, Alex and Becca and changing the names of things.
• Actually using everything I packed and not over packing.
• Mr. Dan Newbold keeping my People magazine modest...ha ha what a funny kid!

• Not a single drop of rain...it always rains at Super Activities.
• This trip also helped me appreciate my bed... ha ha.

This month is such a special one!

Happy Birthday to my mom! She is a wonderful mother and I love her dearly. We celebrated her birthday on Sunday with some cake and ice cream. Aunt Nancy made a delicious chocolate cake and I made cinnamon roll cake. If you havent tried cinnamon roll cake you need to. It is easy and pretty fast.
Today we went to Olive Garden with Grandma JoAnn.
Something very special will be happening tomorrow....Josh will be receiving his mission call. I am so very excited, and a little sad. But Josh said it's not like I am dying just the opposite.
I will continue more later.
