We love Trader Joes!

I miss Trader Joes. I really wish Utah had one. They have the best recipes. I can always find the best ingredients. They also have soyaki. This is the best for fried rice, stir fry, and meats.

Rainy Days

When the weather is rainy.  

We like drinking hot chocolate.

October Conference 2010

       We love conference. There is something about being able to hear what the Apostles, and Prophet of the Lord have to say to us. I was able to watch the Relief Society Broadcast, and it was great to hear what everyone had to say. President Monson gave a truly great talk. 
      On Friday night we were able to go to Matt's mission reunion. We had so much fun. We were able to spend time with his mission buddies, his mission president, and the mission president's wife.  We also were able to see pictures of Italy and the people that he served. Italy is so beautiful.
     On Saturday we were able to go to Kneaders in the morning and eat yummy french toast. We also watched conference. It was nice to be able to enjoy watching conference from the comfort of our adorable apartment. We loved hearing from Elder Holland, and President Uchtdorf. We loved being able to feel the spirit and hear the messages given by church leaders. On Saturday night Matt went to Priesthood session. He came back and let me know all of the little details. We enjoyed talking about what we had heard that day.
     On Sunday we woke up early and made caramel corn before going to the Jones Family house(Matt's cousins). We were able to watch the last two sessions of conference. We loved hearing all of the talks on Sunday and enjoyed eating dinner with the Jones Family. We are so happy to call them family. President Packer did a great job on his talk. As Matt said he really laid down the law. President Packer did a great job of speaking of things that are becoming more and more prevalent in this day of age. 
      We are so grateful for conference. We cannont wait until we get the Ensign next month. We love new technologies that allow us to rewatch conference online. We are excited for April and the next session of conference. We had a great first conference weekend together as husband and wife!

We love Fall!

Fall is one of my favorite times of years. The rain comes. You can wear sweaters, cute boots. You get to cuddle up with the one that you love. You get to eat good treats like pumpkin pie. It is football season. You get to watch general conference. It is thanksgiving time. There is a lot of yummy food. You light candles that make the home smell of cinnamon. Hot chocolate quickly becomes the drink of choice. Soup becomes the food of choice.
