Catching up...

























So alot has happened since my last update, and since my mom loves pictures the most, I am trying to add one for each 'event'.

1. I turned 28 on the 6th. Yep I'm getting old! We were in Oklahoma for confrence weekend and got to celebrate with the family-minus Sissy and Steven. It was lots of fun! Papa made me one of his wonderful cookie cakes and everyone enjoyed eating it! I got lots of awsome gifts and had a very relaxing trip!

2. While we were there, Nana took The boys and I, and Gretchen (Benj's wife and boys) Yadon and Brooks to the 'Pumpkin Patch'. It is a huge farm where there are acres and acres of pumpkins and gourds that you can go and pick yourself. The boys and the 'girls' all had a great time finding our treasures!

3. We were spoiled with all of the free Jamba we could drink! One of my favorite things every time we go to Oklahoma. I recomend the Strawberry Dream Machine...

4. I turned in my Nursing School Application- WHEW! Now we are waiting to see if i get in... Won't know until around Thanksgiving!
5. I recieved an invitation to join Phi Theta Kappa. The National Honor Society. I was pretty excited and Kent and the boys are very proud. And I made the Deans List at school. I guess now that I'm not boy crazy and single it's easier to focus on my school work!! (Although I am still VERY crazy about Kent! AHHHHH!)
6. Our Church Ward split, but the new ward still asked Kent to be the Young Men's President, which he was very glad to accept. He gets to keep a few of the kids from the old ward and is looking forward to getting to know all of the new kids! I don't have a calling yet, but have a meeting on Sunday, so we'll see...
7. BIG NEWS! No Mom I am NOT pregnant! But I did pass 2 kidney stones and now I won't have to have the surgery on the 30th. There are still 2 in there and the doctor thinks they too will pass, but no new ones developed over the last 6 months, which is EXCELLENT! The medication seems to be working and I may finally rid myself of those nasty pests!
8. Braden has his first loose tooth, and can't wait for it to fall out so the Tooth Fairy will bring him 'shiney pennies' that's what he calls quarters and anything silver!

I think that's all for now, it's been a great month so far, and we are looking forward to the upcoming Holiday Season! TTFN-Mary Jane and the boys
