IN THE KITCHEN WITH THE BERNT'S
THEN SHE THREW A CHICKEN IN THE POT TO MAKE SOME CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICHES. SOOOOO GOOOOOD TO MY BELLY!!
FROM ABOUT 11:00 AM UNTIL 9:00PM I WORKED ON THE WHEAT BREAD. AFTER A COUPLE OF PHONES CALLS, AND A LITTLE INTERNET RESEARCH, I BAKED 3 LARGE AND 4 MINI LOAFS OF BREAD WHICH ARE PRETTY GOOD FOR A FIRST TIMER.
IN ALL I THINK WE STARTED THE DISHWASHER 3 TIMES, AND TONYA MOWED THE LAWN WHILE HER COOKIES WERE COOLING DOWN, IT WAS A BUSY DAY.
IT WOULDN'T BE A COMPLETE BLOG WITHOUT A PICTURE OF THE TWO LOVES OF MY LIFE THAT HELPED ME OUT.
BY THE WAY, UND KILLED UW 33-7 TO TOP OF A WONDERFUL DAY!! 5-2, THE IRISH ARE BACK!!

FALL FUN FOR ALL OF US!
SO, THE PAST FEW DAYS HAVE BEEN WAY BUSY. ON SATURDAY, WE WENT DOWN BY JARED'S STORE AND TOOK HALLE TO THE ISU HOMECOMING PARADE. WE HAD FUN AND I THINK HALLE ENJOYED ALL THE PEOPLE THERE. IT IS USUALLY FREEZING BUT THIS YEAR WE JUST HAD TO WEAR HOODIES, SO NICE. LATER THAT DAY, HALLE AND I WENT TO LUNCH WITH A FRIEND AND IT WAS SO GOOD. JARED AND I THEN ATTENDED THE ADULT SESSION OF OUR STAKE CONFERENCE, NANNA TOOK HALLE, AND WE ENJOYED THAT TOGETHER-IT WAS GREAT. THANKS NANNA FOR HELPING US OUT. ON SUNDAY I WAS A BIT NERVOUS FOR HALLE'S 1ST CONFERENCE THAT SHE COULD ACTUALLY MOVE IN. WE SAT BY JARED'S MOM, SIS, GRMA, AND UNCLE AND SHE DID QUITE WELL. THEN LATER WE WENT TO THE BERNT'S FOR DINNER-WHICH WAS OH-SO-YUMMY LASAGNE. WE CAME HOME TOOK A NAP AND WENT TO CAKE AND ICE CREAM FOR JARED'S COUSIN. IT WAS GOOD. TODAY, WE HAD HALLE'S 11 MONTH PIX IN HER HALLOWEEN OUTFIT, SO CUTE! I WENT TO WORK AND THEN SOME FRIENDS GOT TOGETHER FOR DINNER AT TEXAS ROADHOUSE FOR JARED'S COUSINS BDAY! IT WAS SO GOOD AND GREAT FUN!! THANKS TO GRANDMA BERNT FOR WATCHING HALLE AND THANKS MERRILL'S FOR SO MUCH FUN. I HAVE BEEN SO BUSY THAT I FORGOT MY CAMERA BUT I STILL HAD TO BLOG ABOUT THIS....

WE HAD FUN TALKING ABOUT HER BABY THAT IS COMING IN JUST OVER A MONTH, WE HAD LOTS OF LAUGHS, FOOD, AND HOMEMADE SHAKES. WE MISS THEM BADLY BUT ARE GREATFUL WHEN WE GET TO HANG-OUT AND SPEND SOME TIME WITH THEM. WE LOVE YOU GUYS!! ON THURSDAY, JARED AND MY STEP-DAD WENT TO A FOOTBALL GAME IN MALAD, MY STEP-SISTERS HUSBAND IS THE COACH THERE. THEY HAD A GREAT TIME AND HALLE AND I HAD A LITTLE ALONE TIME WHICH WAS FUN.

NATE AND HIS BUCK, AND JARED AND HIS! BOTH ARE A PRETTY DARN GOOD SIZE!
THEN THIS EVENING, I THREW GRANDPA BOB A LITTLE BIRTHDAY PARTY, HE LOVES HIS BIRTHDAY SO MUCH AND IT IS SUCH A BIG DEAL TO HIM. I WAS A LITTLE NERVOUS GETTING THE HOUSE CLEAN AND ALL BY MYSELF SINCE JARED WAS GONE. HALLE LIKES TO HELP SO MUCH I USUALLY END UP PLAYING AND DON'T GET MUCH ACCOMPLISHED UNTIL NAP TIME. TODAY I HAD TOO, AND IT JUST HAPPENS THAT SHE TOOK 2 GREAT NAPS TODAY, SOMEONE WAS ON MY SIDE FOR SURE! I HUNG UP SOME DECORATIONS, BOUGHT THE STUFF FOR COBBLER AND THEN WAITED FOR EVERYONE TO SHOW UP. I INVITED 24 PEOPLE AND 24 PEOPLE SHOWED. IT WAS A GREAT TURNOUT AND GRANDPA WAS SO ECSTATIC THAT SOMEONE DID THIS FOR HIM BEFORE HE LEFT TO ARIZONA FOR THE WINTER. WE HAD A GREAT TIME AND WE LOVE GRANDPA BOB SO MUCH!

GOING TO THE TEMPLE!
THIS MONTH, OUR WARD HAS MANY TEMPLE ASSIGNMENTS AND JARED AND I GET TO DO 4 OF THEM , PLUS I GET TO GO WITH THE YW ONCE TO DO BAPTISMS. WE WILL BE VERY BUSY. HOWEVER, THERE IS A SENSE OF CALMNESS IN THE TEMPLE THAT SURPASSES ANY FEELING I HAVE EVER FELT. WE DID SEALINGS TODAY AND AT ONE POINT THE SPIRIT WAS SO STRONG I ALMOST CRIED OUT OF THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. WE ARE SO LUCKY TO HAVE A TEMPLE SO CLOSE BY THAT WE CAN ATTEND SO OFTEN. WITH ALL THE HUSTLE AND BUSTLE OF THIS WORLD, THAT IS ONE PLACE YOU CAN GO AND FOR A BRIEF SECOND HAVE SILENCE AND FORGET ABOUT EVERYTHING GOING ON AROUND US. I LOVE IT THERE AND I HAD A GREAT TIME AT OUR SESSION TODAY. YES, IT IS HARD TO GET UP AND GET READY AND HAVE HALLE READY AND TO NANNA'S ON TIME AND GET TO THE TEMPLE BUT ONCE WE ARE THERE IT IS SO WORTH IT. WHAT A GREAT TRIP!

LUNCH WITH THE LADIES!
TODAY HALLE AND I GOT TO GO HAVE LUNCH WITH SOME FRIENDS AT THIS LITTLE RESTAURANT "RED HOT ROASTERS." MANY OF YOU THAT LIVE IN POKY MAY NOT EVEN KNOW OF THIS PLACE. IT IS A LITTLE HOLE-IN-THE-WALL THAT MAKES THEIR OWN COFFEE AND HAS UNDENIABLE SOME OF THE BEST FOOD EVER. I ALWAYS HAVE THE CHICKEN RANCH WRAP WITH SOME DELECTABLE TOMATO BISQUE SOUP-WHICH IS I MUST SAY THE BEST SOUP IN THE WHOLE WORLD. I CAUGHT HALLE AND NANNY'S COLD AND THE SOUP WAS SO GOOD TO THE TASTE. I LOVE WHEN WE GO ON MONDAY'S TO LUNCH WITH OUR FRIENDS AND WE GET TO CATCH UP AND PLAY WHILE WE DO WHAT WOMEN DO BEST, EAT! LOVE YOU GIRLIES.

BUSY! BUSY!
THIS PAST WEEK OUR LITTLE FAMILY HAS BEEN SO BUSY. ON MONDAY NIGHT, WE WENT OUT FOR ICE CREAM FOR HOME EVENING AND THEN PLAYED WITH HALLE KAY. ON TUESDAY NIGHT, I HAD MUTUAL AND JARED STAYED HOME WITH HALLE. ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT, JARED WATCHED HALLE WHILE I GOT TO GO TO THE SHOW WITH MY MOTHER-IN-LAW AND SOME FRIENDS. WE WATCHED, " NIGHTS IN RODANTHE." NOT MY FAVORITE SHOW. IT WAS GOOD BUT TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET INTO IT. BUT, I HAD A GREAT TIME BEING OUT WITH THE WOMEN AND HAVING NO RESPONSIBILITIES FOR A BIT. ON THURSDAY NIGHT WE WENT OUT WITH THE DUDLEY'S TO DINNER THEN HUNG OUT AT OUR HOUSE FOR A BIT SO HALLE COULD GO TO BED. THEN ON FRIDAY WE HAD TO RUN SOME FURNITURE TO ONE OF THE DR'S I WORK FOR, HE BOUGHT IT FROM US. THEN I WENT GROCERY SHOPPING IN COMPLETE SILENCE WHILE JARED WATCHED HALLE, SHOPPING WAS QUIET BUT NOT NEARLY AS ENTERTAINING FOR ME AS WHEN HALLE COMES ALONG. ON FRIDAY NIGHT, WE HAD THE DUDLEY'S OVER AND MADE A LITTLE PACKAGE FOR SOME OF OUR FRIENDS IN NEW YORK. TONIGHT JARED HAS PRIESTHOOD SESSION OF CONFERENCE, AND I WILL HANGOUT WITH NANA AND GIGI AND HALLE. TOMORROW IS CONFERENCE AND THEN THE WEEK STARTS ALL OVER. ON TOP, OF NORMAL STUFF, WE HAVE A WARD ASSIGNMENT AT THE TEMPLE TUESDAY-BUSY! I PROBABLY WON'T KEEP UP ON THINGS AS WELL THIS MONTH, I AM SO BUSY I WON'T HAVE MUCH TIME. HALLE IS NOT SICK ANYMORE EITHER, GOOD THING!
