Nice Weekend

We enjoyed a nice Stake Conference weekend. Chris got to fly and ATV on Saturday, so he had a great time. We got together with some friends on Saturday night, had dinner at a new Mexican Restaurant (yummy Carne Asada tacos), and then went to the Adult Conference session. Great talks about our responsibility to be teaching the rising generation. Very powerful, we have a lot of work to do. Sunday session was also great, a variety of speakers on many topics. It just is a great motivator to keep working. I've been worried about seminary and this gave me a pick-me-up. We can do it. We made pizza for dinner and had my parents over. Fun to visit with them. With all our busy schedules we haven't seen them much. I'm trying to be more productive with my time as my next few weeks will be fairly busy. I started my Monday with a break from seminary (Veterans Day), a walk and three loads of laundry. Lets hope this week ends up being productive. Have a happy monday.

November Already

I got a little panicky yesterday. They had a poll on the news asking if it was too early to put up Christmas decorations. HELLO, YES!!! I have so many things to accomplish before December 25th, it just makes me seem like I have less time if I have to worry about Christmas already. Don't get me wrong I love the holidays as much as the next person, but lets get to Thanksgiving first. Some of my upcoming goals for before Christmas: Start my gift shopping (sooner rather than later), renew my real estate license, seminary, service, decorate, bake, throw a party, sew, listen to as much Christmas music as possible (love Christmas music), be with family, and try and enjoy it as much as possible. Now I feel a little better. I love the holidays.
