Well, its has officially been FOREVER since I last updated! Sorry about that folks!
This weekend we scurried down to good ole' Orem, utah and attended Alan's first Mission reunion. Unfortunately it was lacking several of his old companions but it has been 3 years since his mission. Lucky for us we found out that several of the people he did know had made their way over to Denny's for a late night snack. It was tons of fun to listen in on all their adventures during their missions! Then we drove back up to S.L. to get a little R n' R before waking up to go to the Saturday morning session of the 179th General Conference! This was another first that I got to share with Alan! We were fortunate to get tickets from his cousin Brittany and to tell the truth, the seats weren't terrible either! Not to metion Brittany brought along her little sister, Brooklyn! (Alan and I have an "arguement" as to which one of us is Brooklyn's Favorite! :-D )

As always, it was a WONDERFUL treat to listen to and be enlightened by our church leaders!

After the session we quickly did a stop by a pet shop to pick up a new pet for a friend of ours, Andy Thompson. (he was a former intern at Arthur Murray with me) He'd been searching for a red-eyed tree frog! So now he is the proud owner of a FIFTY DOLLAR, yes thats right, $50 buck red-eyed tree frog! At least the little fella is photogenic!

YAY!

Family Tradition #2: Pizza for Lunch btwn. Sat. Conf. sessions- CHECK! :-D
We spent the evening with friends and family in Salt Lake and Provo (as well as rescuing Lost Laptops) before attempting to head back up to Rexburg but unfortunately our car thought we'd do otherwise. The car had a mini surgery but now is back up and "kickin' " with a brand new Alternator! As always, quite the adventure!
Other than that we've just been playing with the ferrets at home, studying for Alan's finals, and teaching our primary class/middle school dance classes!
