The Last Few Weeks....

These last few weeks have been anything but relaxing.  We have been doing a lot of family stuff.  First off our little nephew William Grant was blessed, it was a great day we had such a good time with the family.  Then we've been hunting for elk but we didn't see very much because of the weather.  Andrew did get a bull elk the last day of the season up by LaBarge, lucky guy!  So I guess it looks like we will be hunting for some cows in the up coming weeks. 
Every year for Halloween my mom throws a Halloween party and we all bring our pumpkins and carve them, eat a lot and just visit.  I look forward to this time of year starting with Halloween.  I am the kind of person that wants to dress up just to answer the door when trick-or-treaters come.  Andrew isn't a big fan but this year Justice's farewell was on Halloween so we spent it in Randolph.  Maybe next year I will get to dress up. 
Justice did a wonderful job on his talk and we were grateful for the people that came to listen to him.  He really is an inspiration, we are going to miss him! 
My uncle died about 3 years ago at age 35 and never got to go through the temple so Justice really wanted to do that before he left on his mission, so we made it a priority to get to the temple and we did!  We went to the temple on Friday and it was a good session, except for the fact that some lady behind me had to flick me in the head because I was out cold.  I have never really been that out in a session before I mean I have fallen asleep but not this deep of sleep.  Andrew and I had been up late the night before and we got up early to make it to the temple and I was exhausted.  Well at least my family got a chuckle out of it right?! 
Today is Justice 19th birthday so Andrew and I are headed to Randolph to spend the evening with them.  We are going to cook Justice his favorite meal; shrimp, steak, rice and veggies.  Then we are making him a German chocolate cake.  His other request was that we just play games as a family so I am pretty excited to just spend some quality time with him before he leaves next Wednesday.
