Friends
This weekend, we got to see our dear friends. Although we all used to live within walking distance of each other, we are now spread out across 2 states and only get to see each other 2-4 times a year. Just seeing these guys for a couple of hours made all the difference.
Playing Barbies
I haven't played with Barbies in years (maybe even decades) but this weekend we set up the tent in the backyard and Jane and I played Barbies. It was so much fun! I love to watch her imagination just go.
A Trip to see the Leaves
Today we drove up the Alpine Loop and looked at the changing leaves. It was BEAUTIFUL up there! So many bright and happy colors!
Jane wanted to pick every leaf on that mountain so we were lucky to leave with only 1/2 a backpack full. Grant enjoyed picking up random things, admiring them with an "ooooooo", then chucking whatever it was as far as he could.
General Conference
My spirituality has been at rock bottom for a couple of years now, so I wasn't expecting much from Conference. We had it on in the car and at home and, much to my surprise, it made me feel good to listen to it. That hasn't happened in a very long time.
Crafting
We have been so busy lately with school and other things that I haven't really had time to do one of my favorite past times: crafting. This week I made cards and yesterday I got to work on a couple of projects for friends. It was such a blast playing with the Cricut again.

The color cards for Kalie turned out so great! YOU are the crafty one. I'm glad you were rejuvenated this weekend! Love you lots.
AWESOME!!! I'm so glad you felt better after the weekend. Some weeks just are like that.. I Love the cricut things you made! they are so cute! I want one. haha.
it was so great to see you guys, definitely not long enough though. We really love you guys.
It didn't even take you 5 years to complete the project! Ha ha. They look so cute. The leaves were so beautiful. I hate to say it, but on Saturday when I drove home I wasn't even looking around at them- I was just in a hurry to get here and park the dang car. I regret it now. I'm glad you and your family got to enjoy them! And I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed conference- I'm always so sad when it's over.
I am in love with this post. And in love with your Cricut. Hee hee! I am also in love with Grant in his outfit. L.O.L!
