Our 1st furniture purchase!

We FINALLY have something to sit on!  We have been sitting on camp chairs since August and it was finally time to upgrade!  We have been married over 2 years now and we still didn't have any furniture!  We still don't have a table and chairs but one thing at a time!  I thought couches were a little more important right now than a table and chairs.  It was quite a process though.  I looked at three..four.. maybe five different stores and went back to the first store.  It only took me a few hours to decide on what one and that is really good for me.  Colton was surprised it didn't take me longer!  I'm so glad we finally have some couches to sit on though!

Momma's Birthday

I am so glad that we were able to go to Gilbert for my Mom's birthday!  I haven't been able to see her on birthday because I have been in school and in a different state.  But this year we were able to celebrate!  Colton and I spent the weekend at Donelle's and with my Mom.  One night while we were there, Brooklyn took us to look for scorpions in the back yard with the black light.  Colton and I had never seen a scorpion before until tonight and it actually wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.  I still have a terrible fear of getting stung by one though.  I hope it never happens!

It was also conference weekend so I would say this weekend was great!  I always love visiting Donelle and the family.  In celebrating of my momma's big day, we went to golden corral, one of Grandma and Grandpa's favorite places, and then Colton and I along with my Mom and Donelle went to a comedy club.  I had never been to a comedy club before and I loved it!  It was kid/family friendly so it was clean but still great!  I would definitely go again.  This weekend we were able to watch all four sessions of conference and I always feel so much better after I hear the words from our Prophet and leaders.  There were quite a few who talked out trails and new experiences and felt this fit in perfectly because of our new move here.  We had a great time this weekend and we can't wait to come back soon and visit!

Happy Birthday!!
