10-2-2011 Week in Review…

Okay, I’m WAY behind.  BUT the nice thing is that since I’m SO far behind I don’t have to be secretive about some of the things that were a secret…like my photo shoot on Wednesday!!  BUT, if we’re going to talk about Wednesday we have to first give a SHOUT OUT to my awesome and relatively young brother, JYMN!!  Happy Birthday, Jymn!!  I love you!

Now, on to the pictures…in preparation for a friend’s surprise for her hubby I helped to find her THIS car!!  It’s going to show up at his birthday party (which was before I’m actually getting this post posted…a month late.) and he’s going to be SO surprised!!  We, of course, had to go and check it out first!

That’s right folks, it’s the good ol’ General Lee!! Straight out of the Dukes of Hazzard!  I’m kind of a fan myself as I had the awesome opportunity when I was a kid to meet some of them.  I even have my picture with Enos…somewhere…

Friday I went and hung out with my awesome sister at her house.  We headed back in time to go to Ella’s end of quarter party at school.  Her face was so cute with a big butterfly face painted on it (that we later found out would cause a huge allergic reaction…sigh).  Still…cute.  She’s really loving school.  Hope she likes track out just as much!

Saturday we headed out early to a baptism for a little boy in Ryan’s new class at church.  He’s been called to teach in Primary (our children’s group) and when we got to the baptism, not only did they have him stand in as a witness (makes sure the baptism is done correctly – full submersion) but he gave an impromptu talk on the Holy Ghost and was asked to join the circle to bestow the Holy Ghost to this wonderful young man.  It was such a wonderful experience for us all.

The rest of the day was dedicated to listening to General Conference!  I especially LOVE the Saturday sessions.  I always feel like they put the best talks on Saturday.  It’s a shame so many miss them because they schedule other things to do.  Ryan did have to work so, out of a bit of craziness I decided it was a good day to pull EVERYTHING out of the attic and put it on the deck to be sorted and organized.  I did NOT finish before Ryan got home but he was excited.  Now, hopefully he can stand to stare at it all of Sunday as we don’t work on Sunday…

Sunday was 2 more sessions of Conference and we were excited because my brother Jason & his lovely wife invited us over to watch the 2nd session on their projection screen!  We ended up staying for dinner (D wraps – yum!) and had such a wonderful evening!!
