Weekend in St. George

Neal and I went down to St. George for the weekend; it was a much-needed getaway! I don't know what my deal was last week but I was so grumpy and going down to St. George gave me time to just think and spend time with my hubby. I still wish I was there, I didn't want to come back home, especially now that it is freezing up here! It was a short and sweet, but we did some fun things!
On Friday night we went to the Tuacahn Amphitheater and saw Thriller. Neal wasn't very excited about going, but he is such a good husband he took me anyways. I think that he ended up liking it though! I really liked it! It was so fun and the amphitheater there has such a cool atmosphere. "


On Saturday we got to sleep in for the first time in a long time and it felt nice! Then we went shopping and found lots of cute stuff. Later that after noon we went to the St. George temple and did sealings. So a funny story about what happened to me while I was at the temple, I was wearing a pink bra and you could see right through my dress, so I had to leave it off as I did the sealings! I didn't know what else to do! Haha.

Anyways, I always love doing sealings, one because it doesn't take as long as a session and two because I love hearing the same blessings and covenants that I made with Neal on our wedding day. One of my goals is to go to every temple in Utah. I now have been to the Jordan River, Salt Lake, Logan, Ogden, Bountiful, and now the St. George; so I have been to six out of the fifteen. It is such blessing to have so many temples around us. It will be weird when we move out of state and the closest temple is 3 hours away. After the temple we went my cousins wedding, this was pretty much the reason why we went down. Every time I go to a wedding that is not in the temple, I just feel so grateful for the choices that I have made in my life so that I could be sealed to my best friend for all time and eternity. I wouldn’t have done it any other way!

PA update

Just a little update on what is going on with Neal and PA school. He has three more interviews coming up in November. One is in Nashville, Tennessee; the next day he has one in Winchester, Virginia; and the last one is in Pocatello, Idaho. He has heard back from all the schools now, expect the University of Utah. He should be hearing from them any day now. Hopefully, it will be good news! It would be so wonderful to move to Salt Lake. I will finally get to be closer to my family! But it would also be such a fun adventure to move away for two years!
Just a little update on school with me. I will be through sitting in a classroom at Weber State on October 20th for the rest of my college career! I will finish out this semester teaching in a 4th grade classroom then, STUDENT TEACHING in January!
Well besides that, nothing too exciting is happening. Gabby is keeping us on our toes, but we sure love having her around!

Here is our cute little family!

Loves to take naps!

And we love when she takes naps! Ha
