Two weeks alone, this is what I did

These past couple of weeks have been busy and difficult. My husband Nate had a 2 week business trip, leaving me alone to take care of Boston, the bills, house, appointments etc... Fortunately we didn't have much appointment. While Nate was gone Boston and I visited the dog park almost every day, which Boston LOVED. Now he things that all car rides mean we are going to the dog park! 
We also hike the Y 3-4 times! Boston wanted to run up the mountain!  I compromised and ran up some of them! 
While on the Hike we ran into about 3  Goldendoodles (which is what Boston is) and they all looked completely different. One doodle (picture below) we found out was Boston's Step sister!! Turns out they came from the same breeder in the same part of Utah. Boston was born in Lewiston Utah and so was this puppy, Sally. What are the chances of that happening!?!?!?!

Doggy Play date
We had some friends come over to play. Boston looked like he was having fun running around and wrestling with Teo. This is them being chill after about 30-40 minutes of rough housing (don't worry nothing was broken). 


Favorite cheap sandles broke. :( I suppose that is what you get for $7 sandles! haha My sandle broke half way through my shift. Luckily for me, most of my job is desk work. 


YOUTH CONFERENCE
I will give you the quick version of Youth conference. This year youth conference was only 3 wards within the stake. We had a service activity in the morning, pulling weeds and pruning plants. We did an awesome job, check it out at Timpanogos park! We played the Amazing Race (some pictures below). They kids were commenting that they would love to do this for mutual! At the end of the night we had a short, but very sweet fireside. The talks were about Standing firm in your beliefs, sharing your testimony, the Gospel is like a friendship and enduring to the end. There was a testimony meeting after the fireside and a dance! At the dance we learned a basic line dance and some basic steps to the salsa!   
It started at 8:30 am with breakfast and ended at 9:45pm! What an incredible day. I am so blessed to be around such amazing youth! 
Scripture Black out. They guess the scriptures while having words missing from the scriptures. 

Relay: 1 person had to eat baby food! 

Wheel barrel race








One of my favorite things about Boston is when I given him his food. Below is a video of his excitement when I bring him his food.  P.S. he usually does more spins! Enjoy!

Birthday SURPRISE!!!!!!!

Image
Yes, it's true, my birthday is on Star Wars day, may the 4th (force) be with you. However, that is not the surprise I received. Monday evening I went to bed with cramps. Tuesday morning (3am) the vomiting started. Tuesday mid morning I couldn't keep anything in my stomach and my cramps were continually getting worse.  Nate came home for lunch and I told him I would like to go to the hospital. Once we arrived we discovered that I had appendicitis. What I thought was serious constipation ended up being Appendicitis. Orem Community send me to Utah Valley to get an MRI to confirm their findings. It was indeed true. Tuesday night I went into surgery and had my appendix removed. Afterwards the doctor spoke with Nate (because I was too incoherent from the drugs) and told him that my appendix was on the verge of bursting. I am grateful I got in the hospital when I did.   My sweet nurses put together and card and a candy basket for me. I love the balloon, so clever!  ...

Season with Family

BRAD'S BIRTHDAY PARTY! After having the famous Chip beef on Toast (Brad's FAVORITE meal), we all went bowling at BYU!!!  (heads up, they close 2 hours early during finals week) How do I know that you ask? Well my sister Cyndi, Mrs prepared, phoned and asked what time BYU bowling closed on Tuesday 19th Dec, she was told 10pm.  Thinking we had plenty of time to bowl, we arrive at 7:35pm. As we approach we see the lanes are empty and employees are cleaning up. One of Haley's friends (Brad's girlfriend) said they close at 8!!!  But that we could bowl for free the last 20 minutes. He gave us lanes 3-8 to use!!! We all spread out and were able to bowl at least half a game. Even though we were misinformed it ended up being a tender mercy!  Mom's bowling stance.  Ben and Sam trying to lift their ball! haha HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SWEET ETHAN Ethan is officially 1 years old. For his birthday he slept in (very unusal) until 9:20. He pro...
