Long Time Coming

This post is going to be pretty random. It's been far too long since my last post. I can't believe how busy/totally not busy at all my life has been. I just fill up the days, which is easy when I work 8-5 every day. When I get home from work, I totally don't want to do anything but spend time with Nathan. And sweet Nathan is studying so hard. He's done with class by 2 (or earlier) every day, but he does homework until I get home, sometimes long into the night. And it's paying off. He is ROCKING his classes. He's had two chemistry tests..both 100%. He set the curve on his last biology test and basically is a stud all around. So when he's not swamped with homework we try to have a little fun. Naturally...the laundry, dishes and other not fun things get left undone. A few weeks ago we went to Nickel City, which is basically a Chuck E Cheese..but the games are a nickel. We spent 5 bucks each and had a race to see who could win the most tickets. Nathan killed me, like a said...stud. :) We bought some candy and other random stuff with our tickets. 

Nathan got blue candy. 

In Utah, there are a lot of temples. And churches. And Mormons. It's kind of crazy. Here's the Mt. Timpanogos temple, they are doing some work on it, but it's still open. 

Something Nathan does to keep sane is every Tuesday night, the boys get together and play this board game. I don't understand it, but that's okay. They like it.

I'm in the midst of food allergy testing. I haven't been feeling the best that last few months.

We had the opportunity to go to conference this year! It was so wonderful! We got there a little early...our tickets said the top balcony, but the guy who read our ticket said, "You're supposed to be three flights up, but just go through those doors and have a seat." So we were on the floor. Pretty awesome. Conference is amazing every time it comes around. And I've realized that I say that every time, as do a lot of people. But it's amazing because of the attitude we have when we watch it. If you go, having questions in your heart that you've prayed about...they will be answered. Sometimes in an unexpected way. That alone reminds me of the truthfulness of this church. I mean come on...old men, who have never met me, answer the concerns of my heart. It is only through the holy spirit that it happens. And the spirit testifies truth. 

We attended Sunday Morning, so before conference started, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir sang. 

SLC Temple...and some protestors on the corner :)

Before we went into the conference center

It's really fall!

Life is in Utah is definitely different. Not sure how I feel about it yet. But I am enjoying the time with friends and the beautiful mountains ALWAYS in view. Oh, somethings else that I'm loving...this little girl.

Elliott Faye Titus. She's adorable.
