We had a very busy and productive September full of work, family and friends.
Started it out with having Amanda and Jimmy and the kiddos come stay over Labor Day weekend!
We made a trip to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point.
We spent the most time in the sand table room!
We tried out our new projector in the backyard for an evening BYU game and it worked great! Perfect for a family reunion evening activity!
We enjoyed having the Parks family join us for church on Sunday at the MTC. Introduced Amanda to our solo Romanian missionary and got pics by the traditional map.
We ended up at Braden and McKenna's door about 1 AM on a Saturday after delayed flights and after helping BREANNA and ELLIOT move into their new place all evening.
It was pretty funny!
They had a great time at the game and it was just fun having Austin around for the weekend!
The next weekend Scott ended up in Florida covering the visits of Church leaders to hurricane/flood devastated areas.
This is President Eyring visiting with helping hands volunteers.
I am well into my school year and this is one of my cute classes. They are settling in nicely.
I hosted our monthly APM Dinner Group alone this month since Scott bailed to go to Florida.
We were excited to be there for Lizzie to open her mission call to SACRAMENTO CALIFORNIA!
I keep meeting Sisters at the MTC going there too and tell them that a really sweet, cute girl is headed their way!
I asked our Branch Sisters for advice on missionary bags and got lots of suggestions!!
(Lizzie chose the one in the middle)
Lori hosted a late BRODAL SHOWER for Braden...(it's a boy bridal shower)
She decorated her house for the event and had a rolled up orange extension cord on her door as a wreath!
We loved being together to celebrate their wedding again!
And she had the cutest rootbeer favors with little measuring tapes attached!
I was lucky to be able to go with Hunters, Jennifer and Dad and Carolyn to the Mt Timpanogos Temple for Lizzie to receive her Endowments.
It was a beautiful experience for all of us.
Here she is! Looking like a cute Sister Missionary already!
The family pic.
We ended the month with a MISSION REUNION!
We joined in with the Griffins who just returned from Phoenix in July.
Strange that they are already home! 3 years has flown!
We had a few missionaries that the Griffins did not know who showed up...as a matter of fact, these kids were all there with the Becks before us as well.
Here is most of the crew that showed up for reunion. We knew maybe half of them.
We did get to spend some time with our dear friends the Kings from Phoenix. They came to help set up the reunion, then went to their 10 year Toronto Canada Reunion from when they served as a couple before we met them.
They came over during Priesthood to watch with Braden. Becky and I had girl time and made a traditional craft. I was missing Breanna and McKenna tonight as both were busy! We rescheduled our "Crafternoon" to another date.
Technically this is an October picture, but it shows you how busy I have been with my Pre-K class! We visited the Pumpkin Patch this week and had the best time!
We hosted a dinner Monday for our MTC Branch Presidency including one couple who finished up in January. We love these people!
And yesterday I took my class to the Fire Station and we had another wonderful field trip day!
