October is my favorite month, especially in a state with 4 seasons! The mountains look like they are on fire and the air is crisp and chilly... it is the best! The layering has begun!
Park City Sept. 2011
I have a lot to catch up on... Matty had his birthday Sept. 23rd and we went to his favorite restaurant and then hung out in Park City for the weekend. It was so fun and so relaxing! I am happy he was able to relax for once! Happy belated birthday babe, you are the greatest, thanks for marrying me;)
Since that weekend it has been fluctuating between chilly and beautiful! There was a week where it snowed and I cried... but then it warmed up, hallelujah!
We have been having fun at sporting events and have done our best to make Matty's senior year the best he could have. No more studying at the library on Friday and Saturday nights! Wahoo!
It was so cold one night we were in need of some cocoa... we had to document our first (necessary) hot cocoa trip of the season! I love Autumn!
Quick Catch-up for myself:
We are enjoying the year like we said we would! We have tried to make more time for dates and dear friends up here, it has been so fun. Although I feel like I am a chicken running around with my head cut off... this semester has been awesome! I have loved it and I feel like I am learning so much. Did I mention I love with the girls/guys in my class?? How did so many amazing and unique people end up in my life! They have become my close friends, we are a bunch of brothers and sisters! Our clinical is up in Salt Lake at the Huntsman Cancer Center and it has been a life-changing experience. Every floor is a place of reverence, they have done such a good job at making it a place of peace for their patients. I love it and I love love doing what we do. Although I will be a double senior and I am feeling it haha I am grateful.
General Conference was amazing, we needed that. The Savior lives, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is His church, its that simple:) I will always know those things, and the fact that it is the truth makes me feel hopeful

Anyway!
I have also been able to visit Kylo and I love and adore him. He is the sweetest brother and I am excited to see him again soon! (pictures soon I hope... you have GOT to see how huge this kid is! Monstrous.)
Matty is doing great! Loving school and so so busy. He is a so smart and works very hard. He is TA'ing for some classes and hashing out the last bit of credits he has. He has been playing intramural flag football and loves it, it is really fun to watch! All the wives watch the boys play and its really fun, I will miss that. We both miss New York a lot and look forward to graduation and the big move!
Mal and Dal had baby Molly! Ahhh I am smitten, she is a doll. I wish I could squeeze and kiss her little face right now--> pictures of her and the shower soon too!
TONS of Fall activities! Wahlstrom Halloween Party last weekend, pumpkin carving with friends and the farmers market this weekend!! Very very excited!
Overall we are really happy to be here, even though it is still a little stressful! I'll try to stay on top of things but I am happy we are finally doing more living than blogging!! (goal is to have time for both... someday!:))
**We also want to send our love to the Brinton and Chiles families. We love Tate and Mel so much. Matt and I have both thought that there is something especially important going on up there, for such amazing men to be called home. You are in our prayers
