M.I.A.

I have too much to blog about. I've only taken about two weeks off of blogging and now I don't even know where to start for playing catch-up. I have lots of pictures to post so I'll get around to those sometime this week.  It's only October 11th and we've already had an awesome October thus far.  Some highlights are...
     
      - General Conference (which was wonderful as always)
      - Girly time during the Priesthood session
      - brunch up the canyon on a beautiful autumn day
      - lots of eating out 
      - watching football and more football - that's Nate's favorite pastime for October...I only like it in moderation of course :)
      - date night with Jason & Emily to Farr's and the Social Network
      - hiking the Y with some of the Tadje fam
      - Gardner Village & Paradise with Tadje girls while the husbands and boys went to the BYU game
      - my niece Sydney's baby blessing
      - and a trip to the Living Planet Aquarium


In between all our fun, I have been busily working on a play car mat for A & B.  I have been wanting to make one of these for a while and last week I buckled down and did it.  Nate's mom gave me a bunch of fabric she no longer needed so I was able to make the car mat with fabric I already had.  And my mom gave me the Wonder Under to use, so basically the project was free.  I just need to buy some more cars and dump trucks and the gift is ready!
