The Jazz Game

We scored some awesome tickets to the Jazz game on Monday night. Even though the Jazz lost, it was fun to go up! We went with Devin and Nat, JJ and Susan. I didn't take many pictures cause im a dud and only took a few! Oh well maybe next time right!

This Is Halloween!!!

I love this time of the year! There is just something about Halloween that kicks off the holidays! I also like it because for one day you get to dress up and be whoever you want to be! Karson and I have been trying to plan what we were going to be since last year. Once again we left it at last minute and got lucky to come across a Wilma and Fred Flinstone costume! Oh well, it turned out great! We started the day off at a Morgan family party! We ate delicious cheese soup in a bread bowl and carved pumpkins! Than we finished of the night with a party at our house. It was regularly supposed to be at the Memmott household but changed last minute when there new house flooded. It turned out great. We ate chili, lost of treats, talked, and watched a scary movie! It was really fun to get together with everyone.

Hope you all had a Happy Halloween!!!

Families Are Forever

On Saturday, we were able to be apart of Kylee, Conner, and Nixons special day! They were sealed as a family in the Salt Lake Temple. It was such an amazing day. The spirit was so strong as they were sealed together, forever. I am so happy for Kylee and Conner. We love them so much and are so proud of how hard they worked on getting to the temple. They are both amazing parents. We look up to them in so many ways! Thank you guys for letting us be apart of you day!

Witches Night Out

Every year, all the ladies in my family dress up as witches and head on up to Witches Night Out at Gardener Village. It is seriously a good time! If you have never been you should seriously plan on it next year! We always eat good food, have fun dancing, and hope to win an awesome prize! It always makes for a good time!

Father-in-law to the RESCUE!!!

Last night I had one of those moments, you know the kind of moment when you wish your dad was just down the hall. Luckily my father-in-law George just lives a few blocks away.

Karson stayed up in Provo last night because of work and school. That meant that I was home alone. I am a spook as it is but it doesn't help that our house is over a hundred years old and has been infested with mice (yes, disgusting I know) the past few days. I was doing okay until it came time to sleep. I just told myself to fall asleep fast. Sometime around 2 I woke up to a big noise. The kind of noise that scares the you know what right out of you. I couldn't move nor did I want to until I heard it again. I made a quick move and grabbed my phone and called my sleeping husband. I tried to explain to him what was going on inbetween sobs. I think he could tell I was pretty dang scared and hurried and called his dad to come and check on me. In the mean time I grab my lamp and tried in an attempt to make myself hidden (as if I possibly thought that laying as flat as I could would make me invisable!) under a blanket. I think George was at my house in 30 seconds time.

In my mind it was some scary, probably up to no good fella or a big hairy creature with huge teeth. Come to find out... it was just the WIND! How pathetic am I! Needless to say I ended up sleeping on my in-laws couch last night!

Who gets up at 2 in the morning to chase away wind!?! (Thanks George!) It just made me realize how greatful I am for our families. I know that if anything was to happen to us, our families would be there in no time. It doesn't matter if its a call for help to fix a tire or a call to chase away the elements, they are always there for us! We are so lucky and so blessed.
