Monday, September 6 - In honor of meeting Simon 22 years ago this day, I thought I would share this meme. It's so funny because my family does the bottom one ALL. THE. TIME! It is one of my biggest pet peeves! This meme definitely spoke to me!
Tuesday, September 7 - Cute Grandma Sharon came over today to teach me how to make cooked jam. It was so fun to be with her and fun to learn how to make jam without using Pectin, a preservative. Tonight, Kendra and Nick had the awesome opportunity to go to an Alex Boye concert. It is suicide prevention month and he is putting on a bunch of free concerts for youth to discourage teen suicide and foster awareness. Brenley and Kendra were able to go up to him and even take a selfie with him! So cool!
Wednesday, September 8 - I had my 6-month check up today. I need a root canal, which I was already aware of, plus I am ready to move forward with getting my implant. It's going to be expensive but worth it! Tonight, we had another women's shoot. This time it was just in Daybreak. I was the guardian of the clothing while Liz was taking the pictures. :)
Thursday, September 9 - Tonight was bunco but Aubrey Halterman invited us all over to swim in her pool before we started playing. Her pool is beautiful! We enjoyed sitting on the "sunning shelf" and visiting before we played. I didn't win anything, like usual. But it is always super fun to be with the ladies for the evening!
Friday, September 10 - Liz surprised me today with a mini fridge! Her plan is to keep it stocked with Diet Coke! I had no idea she was doing that!! I wore the perfect shirt for the surprise though!! Simon has been working hard on the yard and took out a tree in the corner and a bush in front of Ricki's window. I was sad about the bush. I actually really liked that. The tree was a mess though so it was a good call to take it out. Simon and Nick both worked a lot to get that stump out. It's looking good now!
Saturday, September 11 - First of all, today is the 20th anniversary of September 11 and all of the misery and unity that day brought. There has been a lot of talk about Sept 11 and how unified it made us as a country. This country that currently feels like it is falling apart. We also had a crazy fun and busy Saturday. We started out by going to Henry's soccer game in Orem. His team is really good! It was fun to watch him and fun to hold Livy on the sideline. :) While we were there, Kendra went to West Jordan with her Tiger Squad for the Hope Walk. She walked with her school through Veteran's Memorial Park in an effort to prevent suicide and raise awareness. This picture of Kendra is from South Hills Middle School's Instagram page. Later this afternoon, we met my whole family at Zack's soccer game in Riverton. The final score was 1-1 and Zack was the one that made the point for our team. Way to go Zack!! Tonight was the epic BYU vs. U of U football game. It was broadcast on ESPN, which we don't have, so we went to Jenni and BJ's to watch the game. BYU won for the first time in 12 years! It was a fun game to watch, even if the outcome was a little disappointing.
Sunday, September 12 - We did our annual Silver Lake dinner tonight. It was so peaceful and beautiful! I always love our walk around the lake, talking with the family, and taking pictures on the rock that we've lovingly named "engagement rock".
